Workout Zones
Workout Zones have been created so Trent students and Staff & Faculty with memberships can reserve a workout in advance through our Legend online booking system. This will allow a limited number of individuals to reserve a specified one-hour workout appointment. No walk-ins will be permitted at this time.
Each Workout Zone is designed by relocating pieces of fitness equipment normally located in the Sport Centre and distributing them to other rooms, including the gymnasium, mezzanine (2nd floor), Fitness Studio 1, and Fitness Studio 2.
Each Workout Zone provides each person with 4 square metres of personal space. All fitness equipment is spaced at least 3 metres apart, and where it is not possible to achieve this distancing, equiment has been taken out of use. Plexi-glass barriers are installed between cardio and strength equipment as an additional measure to support heath and safety.
As part of the online booking process, students can select a specific Workout Zone of their choice, according to availability. A full description of the equipment available in each workout zone will be posted on the Trent Athletics website. (Example: Zone #1 – a treadmill plus 5, 10, 15, and 20 lb. free weights; Zone #2 – elliptical plus 10, 15, 20 lb. free weights).
The workout appointment schedule includes a 30-minute time period between appointments to allow for the transition of people to and from the Athletics Centre and for the clean and disinfecting of the facility and equipment.
All workout areas have specific pathways for entering and exiting spaces, using floor or wall signage, and students are asked to move uniformly through the workout areas to reduce random movement on the floor.
The sharing of equipment or movement into another individual’s workout zone is not permitted.
Athletics Centre part-time student staff are available to monitor workout rooms and answer any questions you may have.
