What to expect from your first visit

Gyms aren’t just for fitness experts. They’re for people of all ages, sizes, and experience levels.

A successful first visit is determined by you, and no one else. Take your time, get used to the equipment, and ask for help if you need it.

Here’s some tips to help you get the most out of your first visit:

• Wear clothes you are comfortable in. The more comfortable you are, the better your experience will be.
• Set reasonable expectations. You don’t need to be running for an hour or benching 100kg for your visit to be a success. But it can be good to go in with a goal, even if it’s as simple as trying out a specific piece of equipment.
• Go during a quiet period. You may feel more comfortable if you go during a quieter period, when machines are less busy, and you have more time to figure out what exercises best suit your needs. You can even use The Gym Group app to find out the real-time business of your chosen gym.
• Ask for help. The Gym Group’s friendly, knowledgeable staff are there to help if you have any questions about how equipment works, or what’s suitable for a beginner. No question is too small!
