Gym Rules & Etiquette
Welcome to Teneriffe Athletic Club
We’re excited to welcome you to our community! To ensure everyone has a safe and enjoyable experience, please take a moment to review some of our key Gym Rules & Etiquette. These guidelines help us maintain a respectful, clean and well-organised environment for all members.
1. No Ick-heads
We believe that a strong sense of community enhances everyone's experience. We encourage all members to be friendly, supportive, and respectful to one another. Share words of encouragement, lend a helping hand when needed, and celebrate each other's achievements. Together, we can create a positive and motivating environment where everyone feels welcome and inspired to reach their training goals.
2. Gym Floor Dress Code
Closed-toe shoes and clean athletic attire specifically designed for exercise must be worn in all workout areas. Shirts or singlets must be worn at all times. Sports bras and crop tops are acceptable.
3. Cleanliness & Equipment Use
For the comfort and hygiene of all members, use a towel during your workouts to cover equipment. Treat all gym equipment carefully and wipe it down after each use with the provided disinfectant wipes. If you need help with the correct use or operation of equipment, please seek assistance from a team member. Additionally, ensure that all equipment is returned to its proper place after use to keep the gym organised and accessible for everyone.
4. Weightlifting Safety & Noise Reduction
While using weightlifting platforms or the functional zone, guide barbells and weights to the ground safely and under control. Barbell collars must be used at all times. Safety spotter arms should be used during non-staffed hours. For Olympic and dynamic lifts above the waist, crash pads must be used to minimise noise.
5. Gym Bags
Store gym bags in the provided pigeonholes or locker rooms to keep the main floor clear.
6. Camera Usage
Using camera equipment, including tripods, within the club requires management approval. Photographing or filming other members without their consent is strictly prohibited.
7. Unauthorised Entry
Access to the facility is strictly limited to members or approved guests only. All guests must be registered with the front desk upon arrival. Any unauthorised entry or use of the facility is strictly prohibited and will incur a $100 fine.
8. Security & Emergencies
The gym floor and golf simulators are monitored by 24-hour video surveillance to ensure the safety of members and the security of our equipment. In addition to calling 000, duress buttons and lanyards are available for members to signal for help in case of emergencies.
