Gym Etiquette
It is imperative that the fitness suite facilities, its users & staff are shown the utmost respect, therefore we kindly ask that you observe the following to ensure safety & enjoyment for everyone. If you require any clarity then please do not hesitate to speak to a member of the team.
1 . Do not bring your gym bag or other personal belongings onto the fitness floor
2. Please wear appropriate gym attire at all times, no outdoor footwear (Please ensure you have clean indoor use footwear), no denim or loose hanging clothing.
3. The fitness suite is a family environment and as such we would kindly ask you to refrain from using profanity, banging weights & shouting across the gym floor.
4. The staff are not permitted to look after any of your personal belongings, you should keep these on your person & any medical medication with you at all times.
5. Please re-rack weights after use and do not leave them across the floor because 1) it is a safety hazard 2) it damages the equipment & 3) it disrupts other members
6. In the interest of hygiene & maintaining the lifespan of the equipment please wipe down the equipment after use ensuring that it is clean for the next member to use.
7. Ask if you can “Work in” and always allow others the same courtesy, afterward return the seat & weight to the last users setup
8. Do not sit on machines between sets, take a 60 second muscle stretch & allow others the opportunity to use the station, especially during peak usage.
