Bridging The Gap Between Fitness & Sanitation

THEN: The only consequence of a dirty fitness environment was an unhappy member and negative review.

NOW: The consequence of a dirty fitness environment are members contracting & spreading Coronavirus, leaving your reputation and business at risk. 

 

The current COVID-19 pandemic has brought the need for more strict sanitation procedures. This is especially true for fitness centers that house a variety of viral threats. Fitness clients are more aware of their health and potential health threats than ever before.

One recent study by Filtrated found that gym equipment had 39x more bacteria than a reusable plastic cafe tray! This bacteria causes skin infections and illnesses. Treadmills and bikes had the highest amount of bacteria, 74 times the amount of bacteria found on a tap in a public toilet to be precise.

Free weights had 362 times the amount of germs as a toilet seat. Fitness experts are in the best position to solve the world’s sanitation problem as fitness centers need to take special care to combat various threats that could ruin their client’s health, their reputation, and their business.

What are these threats in fitness centers?

As of April 2019, the top 5 infectious pathogens found in fitness centers include:

➔    Athlete’s foot

➔    Cold and influenza viruses

➔    Staphylococcus bacteria (staph infections)

➔    E. coli and Hepatitis A

➔    Ringworm

➔    Coronavirus
