ATTENTION AWESOME BBL CREW!
We are eagerly awaiting the next phase of restrictions being lifted and anticipate that it will be soon. Here at BBL we are already getting the gym ready for you to get on track with your fitness goals and feel as motivated and supported as ever.
Currently in the gym we will be implementing our COVID SAFE PLAN that includes more regular cleaning, readily available hand sanitizer for you and our equipment and Social distancing of 1.5 meters between members, trainers and equipment. It will also involve you assisting us and your fellow community here by not coming in to train if you feel unwell and adhering to all new regulations.
We’re all in this together so please have a thorough read of this information in our COVID SAFE PLAN to understand how we will be ensuring everyone’s safety as we help you achieve your health and fitness goals.
