Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and Arizona Department of Health Services (ADHS) Covid 19 Operational Guidance

Under all circumstances, the following precautions must be taken by people utilizing indoor gyms and other fitness venues:

Stay home if you are sick.

– Protect yourself while visiting gyms –

• Arizonans are safer at home and should evaluate their personal risk of using an indoor gym or other fitness venue based on the Arizona COVID-19 Risk Index.

• Avoid close contact and stay more than 6 feet away from others.

• You are required to wear a mask while at the facility.

– Masks should not be placed on children less than 2 years of age, anyone who has trouble breathing, or is unconscious, incapacitated, or otherwise unable to remove the cover without assistance.

– In accordance with CDC guidelines, individuals who are engaged in high-intensity activities, like running, may not be able to wear a mask if it causes difficulty breathing. 

– If unable to wear a mask, these individuals should not participate in activities conducted at indoor gyms and fitness centers.

– Wash your hands often, especially after leaving the gym, with soap and water for at least 20 seconds. If soap and water are not available, use an alcohol-based hand sanitizer that contains at least 60% alcohol.

– Avoid touching your eyes, nose, and mouth with unwashed hands.

– Cover your cough or sneeze with a tissue or your sleeve (not your hands) and immediately throw the tissue in the trash.

– If possible, use touchless payment methods. If you must handle money, a card, or use a keypad, use hand sanitizer or wash your hands immediately after.
