Quote:TRON: Evolution inspires combat workout
To mark the launch of the new TRON: Evolution video game, a London-based fitness chain has created a new combat workout.


The Tron Evolution fitness class: bouncy bouncy The Tron Evolution fitness class: bouncy bouncy

The workout has been created using Parkour and Capoeira moves inspired by the action-adventure video game.

Called Tronjitsu, it has been exclusively invented by Troy Dureh, celebrity fitness trainer and Gymbox creative class consultant.

The workout is aimed at boosting cardiovascular fitness over a 60-minute period.

Free running and martial arts movements from the video game have influenced those featured in the workout.

Unique Spring Energie platforms and replica Light Discs from the TRON universe are used in Tronjitsu.

It is set to the music of Daft Punk's Derezzed, which is on the TRON: Evolution game.

Gym buffs will be able to get involved in the 60-minute workout from tomorrow. It will be held weekly at Gymbox's Bank studio until January.

TRON: Evolution is released in the US on December 7th. TRON: Legacy, which is the movie accompanying the video game, will hit screens in the UK on December 17th.

The action-adventure flick stars Jeff Bridges, Olivia Wilde and Garrett Hedlund. It tells the story of a virtual-world worker who tries to take down the Master Control Programme.
