HEALTH & SAFETY

1. Member Responsibilities

All members must complete a PAR-Q (Physical Activity Readiness Questionnaire) before using the gym. Inform staff of any injuries, health conditions, or limitations that may affect your ability to train safely. Follow instructions given by staff and coaches at all times. Use equipment correctly and seek assistance if unsure how to operate something. Do not use equipment or participate in exercise if feeling unwell or under the influence of alcohol or drugs.

2. Staff Responsibilities

First aid kits are available on-site and clearly marked. In the event of an injury or emergency, notify a member of staff immediately. All accidents or incidents will be logged and reviewed.
