Member Health Pledge

1) Health and safety responsibility

• You confirm that the health information you provide is true, accurate and up to date, and that we may rely on it when assessing your use of the facilities.
• If you have a medical condition, injury, or are pregnant or post partum, you will seek medical advice before training and follow any guidance you are given.
• You will tell us if there is a material change in your health that could affect safe training and update your details when asked to do so.
• If you feel unwell, dizzy, faint, or in pain during exercise, you will stop immediately and seek help.
• You agree to train within your personal capacity, build up gradually and use equipment safely and as intended. If you are unsure how to use any kit, you will ask staff during staffed hours before attempting to use it.

2) Hygiene and conduct

• Maintain good personal hygiene, including clean clothing, deodorant and regular showering.
• Bring a clean towel, lay it on contact surfaces where practical and wipe down kit after use.
• Wear clean indoor only trainers and appropriate gym clothing. Muddy shoes, work boots, jeans, sliders, flip flops, or training barefoot unless agreed in writing are not permitted.
• Store bags and coats in lockers, not on the gym floor or benches. Keep walkways clear so other members can move safely.
• Follow posted hygiene and safety notices and any reasonable instructions given by staff.

3) Shared environment, juniors and respect

• Re rack weights and return attachments immediately after use. Do not leave barbells or machines loaded.
• Treat staff and members respectfully. Bullying, harassment, discrimination, intimidation or abusive language may lead to suspension or cancellation.
• The premises are strictly no smoking and no vaping.
• You understand you train at your own risk, especially during unstaffed hours.
• Under 18s must follow our junior rules, supervision requirements and access windows. Children under 11 are not permitted on the gym floor and may remain in reception only.

4) Saunas and sunbeds

• Saunas may only be used in staffed hours and in line with the applicable age restrictions and posted rules.
• Sunbeds are strictly 18 plus only and may only be used in staffed hours with staff authorisation.
• If you use a sunbed, you confirm that you have read and accepted the Sunbed UV Exposure Waiver within our Terms and Waiver pages and that you will follow all exposure guidance, wear protective eyewear, and stop use if you experience redness, irritation or any adverse reaction.

5) Acceptance and acknowledgement

By proceeding with membership or using the gym, you confirm that you have read, understood and agree to this Member Health Pledge, together with Vibes Gym’s Membership Terms and Conditions, Gym Rules and Code of Conduct and Gym Waiver and Assumption of Risk.
