Wakaw Fitness Centre

Long time no see everyone! Many people are anxiously awaiting June 8th for phase 3 to begin and gyms to re-open! Unfortunately, due to our business model of an unstaffed facility, that is not the case for the Wakaw Fitness Centre. In addition to strict cleaning, sanitizing, and social distancing measures, facilities must have at least one staff member present to ensure proper social distancing and sanitizing is followed. We are potentially looking forward to phase 4 but will know more as more information is released to us as the province reopens. Trust me, the gym misses you as much as you miss it and we can't wait to have you all back one day soon! Until then, be a fit legend at home, hit the open road with your shoes, and stay safe.

Update : Saskatchewan has declared a state of emergency, forcing closure of all gyms and fitness centres. Previously the gym was open until Friday to collect belongings and members were urged to not work out during that time. Use of the facility before the door is locked on Friday is now prohibited. Still one day left to collect your belongings.

The Wakaw Fitness Centre's board regrets to inform our members we will be closing our doors temporarily while the #covid_19 pandemic progresses. The board feels this is the safest decision to help prevent the spread and urges all of our members to practice your best social distancing, and follow closely along to the advice of our governments and health officials, currently, and in coming weeks. The door will remain open until Friday morning, at which time codes will be clea...red, so people can collect their shoes or other belongings if they wish but we are urging people to not use the facility at this time. Current memberships will be extended for the relative duration of the temporary closure. Consider this a pause. Side note - warranty work will be underway this week on our new recumbent bike and a new addition will have popped up in the north end of the building by the time we reopen! Stay fit and stay tuned. #flattenthecurve #socialdistancing

Doubled by popular demand! A second rower and bike means less time waiting or pretending to like the elliptical! Kettlebells paired up from 4kg to 32 kg so that everyone has something for their workout! Small resistance bands for more and more stretching and accessory work! And rumour has it that the chalk has been restocked, for all y'all hitting PR's and pretending to be LeBron James! (Subtle reminder that if you spill the chalk bowl or cover a weight or floor with it, p...lease clean it up when done.) And as always, happy lifting, fitness people.

It's never to late for the gift of fitness! Gift certificates are available in any amount by emailing [email protected]! Perfect for powerlifters, runners, rowers, or January 1st first timers!
