  • Cardio Time Limit: When people are waiting, please limit use of the cardio equipment to 30 minutes.
  • Rack Your Weights: As a courtesy, when using free weights or movable equipment, please return them to their proper place at the end of your workout, making sure to strip bars and return plates to storage racks.
  • Proper Attire: Appropriate workout attire is required. No swimsuits or clothing that may be inappropriate for a family environment is permitted in the fitness facility. Shirts must be worn at ALL times, covering the mid-section, and not displaying profanity, vulgar or offensive content. Appropriate shoes (closed-toed, athletic) must be worn while using the fitness facility.

Youth ages 9 – 11 years old may use the cardio and weight resistance equipment with successful completion of the Family Fitness Orientation with a parent or guardian. Guardians must stay with their children for the duration of their workout.

Teens aged 12 – 15 years who wish to use the cardio and weight resistance equipment without guardian supervision must become “Teen Certified” before doing so. Parents are encouraged to assist their children when using equipment.

Individuals ages 14 and 15 are eligible to use the Free Weight Room with the completion of a one-time safety and knowledge check course. This course involves 4 steps:

  1.  Read the Free Weight Room Manual 
  2.  Watch the Free Weight Room Instruction Video
  3. Take the Online Quiz (Must get an 18 or higher to continue.)
  4. Schedule a session with one of our trainers to be introduced to the weight room and receive your YMCA wristband. This training session will be 30 minutes and cover any questions, comments or concerns from the previous steps, as well as provide an overview of training in the weight room. An individual session can be purchased for $25, or the Teen Jumpstart package can be purchased for $100. The Teen Jumpstart packet includes four sessions with a personal trainer.

A Youth Waiver must be signed by the parent/legal guardian and kept on file at the Service Deck. Upon passing the exam and completing one session with a personal trainer, the youth member will be given a bracelet to wear, allowing access to all of the weight rooms.
