When the gym is busy, please be courteous and keep time on each machine to a minimum. Please don't sit on machines looking at your phone between sets. 1 minute rest soon becomes 6 or 7 minutes. 60 to 90 seconds of rest is generally enough recovery time and will keep your workout intensity high. If you are lifting heavy and need a longer rest let people work in.
Please, can we re-rack plates and weights after use to keep our gym tidy, clutter-free and safe for all our members๐
The hardest exercise in the gym? Must be putting the weights back ๐ฅด get those gains, re-rack your weights after you've used them๐

If you're strong enough to put them on, you're strong enough to take them off! ๐ช Please re-rack your weights after you've used them so that others don't have to tidy up after you. Putting weights back counts as a lift too so win win ๐
Are you looking to change up your squat routine? Here are a few variations of squats: ๐๏ธ Back squat ๐๏ธ Front squat ๐๏ธ Sumo squat ๐๏ธ Elevated heel goblet squat ๐๏ธ Squat jumps Wider squat stance targets more your glutes and hamstrings, whereas narrow squats active mostly your quads. For more in depth information speak to one of our team members.
Sharing is caring! Seeing people blocking equipment they're not really using makes us sadโน๏ธ please be considerate to others and let them use the equipment while you're having a rest ๐ค
