Guidelines

As a gym, FitPOWER LLC keeps the health of the community at the forefront of our decisions.  FitPOWER is ready to open its doors to the public.  We have been fortunate that FitPOWER has had zero cases inside  our gym and these guidelines may change at any time at the discretion of the owner.

Please review our updated guidelines:

Personal Health & Hygiene 


  • If you are experiencing typical “cold” or  “allergy” symptoms we are asking that you use proper judgement and either refrain from attending a group class, or wear a mask while in attendance.
  • Clients and students should wash hands or use sanitizer in the following situations:
    • Before touching your face.
    • After using the restroom.
    • After leaving the gym.
    • WASH YOUR HANDS after blowing your nose, coughing, or sneezing.
    • After handling your mask.


Travel

  • All travel is permitted without the need for specific re-entry procedures.

Coaches

  • Coaches will be required to test if they are showing symptoms of COVID-19 or have a known COVID-19 exposure.
  • Coaches will wear masks during training sessions that include children who are unvaccinated.
  • Coaches will do a bathroom check after their sessions/classes are over including:
    • Wiping down the sink.
    • Wiping door handles.
    • Restocking towels.
  • Martial Art Coaches complete a thorough sweep, mop and sanitization of all floor and wall mats after class is complete.

**************************************************************************

When would we roll back our guidelines?

  1. We see a consistent increase in positive COVID-19 cases (all variants) in Wisconsin over 30 days.
  2. Wisconsin reaches >200 cases of COVID-19 (all variants) per 7 day average.

Phase 1 Roll Back: Actionable if one of the two criteria above is reached.
  1. All cross training stops immediately (this does not include seminars, camps, etc.)
  2. Contact tracing will return.
  3. Re-Entry rules return.

Phase 2 Roll Back: Actionable if both of the criteria above are reached.
  1. Masks will be mandatory for all members.
  2. Small group training will be reduced to 4 people per group.
  3. Open gym training will be reduced to 2 people per hour.


Anything beyond Phase 1 or 2 we will refer to our PLAN OF ACTION.

​

plan of action

The following levels represent how FitPOWER LLC will scale back it’s services in relation to the severity of COVID-19.  In the event the COVID-19 situation becomes worse, or members of our facility become directly affected, these levels will be put into action at the discretion of Jessica Sunier of FitPOWER LLC.

Level 1

  • Partner sparring will be removed.
  • Partner drilling will continue but members must find a monogamous partner while this level is enforced for all techniques and live drills.
    • Members will inform coaches who their partners are and a list will be maintained.
    • Maximum 8 people, including the coach, per class.
  • Kids classes will remain the same
  • Solo Drilling return.
  • Kickboxing will require a monogamous partner while this level is enforced.
    • Members will inform coaches who their partners are and a list will be maintained.
    • Maximum 8 people, including the coach, per class.


Level 2

  • Partner drilling on Thursday will be removed and converted to another solo-drilling/grappling dummy class.
  • Kickboxing will be reduced to 4 people max per class (2 pairs) not including the coach.​
  • Solo Drilling will be available in person and virtually via Zoom every Monday and Thursday.
  • Women’s Class will be converted to solo-drilling but will not be done virtually.

Coaches and Staff Expectations

  • Coaches will be required to test if they are showing symptoms of COVID-19 or have a known COVID-19 exposure.
  • Coaches will assist in taking the temperature of their small group clients and martial arts students before a session begins.  If a coach is unavailable the client/member will follow instructions to take temperature themselves.  Clients and students are to then take that information and mark it on the “Health Log” sheet provided before class begins.  FitPOWER will provide proper equipment to the coaches.
  • Coaches will wear masks during small group and martial arts classes.
  • Coaches will do a bathroom check after their sessions/classes are over including:
    • Wiping down the sink.
    • Wiping door handles.
    • Restocking towels.
  • Martial Art Coaches complete a thorough sweep, mop and sanitization of all floor and wall mats after class is complete.
  • Equipment will receive a thorough cleaning each night. Equipment includes:
    • Squat racks.
    • Barbell racks.
    • Dumbbell rack.
    • Kettlebell area.
    • Atlas stones.
    • Door handles.
    • Floors.

In the event of a shut down due to exposure from the INSIDE, the entire facility will be shut down for 7 days, sanitized, equipment moved and sanitized, and a professional cleaner will be hired to do an extra deep clean.
