Reopening Plan

Dear Community Members,

As we make the transition back into our facility, please know that the health and safety of you and your loved ones is our highest priority. We will continue to follow the orders of the State of Maine and the Maine CDC.

We will also continue to offer outdoor workouts for those not comfortable coming indoors, as well as our online STREAM offerings. You can learn more about new programming here.

We’re excited to get back into our facility with the following precautions in mind: 

  1. While the gym was closed we stripped everything down, painted every wall, cleaned every surface, and even worked on some nice upgrades to the lobby and bathrooms. We also installed a foot operated door opener on the entry door so clients can enter the facility without using their hands. 

  2. We spent thousands of dollars on more equipment to allow clients to not have to share equipment while we all take these extra precautions.

  3. We have adjusted our programming and facility layout to allow clients to have their own individual working space in their session, a “pod” as we call it. This allows ample space, marked off with tape, and 14’ of distance between you and the next client during any vigorous exercise.

  4. We will be limiting all Small Group Personal Training sessions to 8 people to allow for more spacing and more individualized coaching.

  5. In addition to not needing to share equipment before disinfecting it, and physically distancing each client, we have hourly cleaning protocols in place covering every square inch of the facility. 

  6. We will keep sessions to 50 minutes to allow us time to clean the facility for the next session, in addition to the cleaning that goes on throughout the session. 

  7. Clients will use the provided wipes to disinfect all surfaces and equipment touched during the session, and staff will do a second cleaning after the clients leave. 

  8. We ask that clients also wash their hands pre and post session as well as use the provided hand sanitizer.

  9. We also ask that you only use the “hands-free” portion of the water fountain at this time

  10. Staff will be wearing masks as they are in the building a “prolonged period” of time, per state guidelines.

  11. We originally planned on installing Air Conditioning in our facility this summer. At this time we have put that on hold in plans to have our two 14’ overhead garage doors open to allow for improved air quality.

We’re excited to continue to make strides forward with this “new normal.” 

We hope this message not only shows the community just how proactive we’re being with your safety, but also opens the opportunity for you to check us out for your health and wellness needs as we have updated our cleaning and safety protocols and offerings.

1% Better.

Dedicated To Your Success,

Doug Spurling & The Spurling Fitness Team
