Reopening #2 - The Second Coming
* INDICATES REVISED ON MARCH 3, 2021 @ 4:00PM
Hello Frontier Performance Athletes
As per Alberta Health Services, Individual and group fitness activities are permitted, with restrictions.
Effective Wednesday March 3, 2021 we are able to welcome athletes back in person.
Here’s what you need to know:
Please read this email carefully as this literally affects all Frontier Athletes.
Equipment Return
Equipment return will occur on Tuesday March 2, 2021 starting at 6:00am.
Someone will be onsite all day until 8:00pm
Priority will be to get back the following items:
(We want to be a fully armed and operational battle station by Wednesday morning)
Plates - Especially light weight bumpers
Barbells
Squat Racks
If you have these items and you are unable to return them in the above window, please get in touch with me right away so we can make a plan asap.
If you have small items like dumbbells/kettlebells, you can keep those.
You can keep any cardio torture machines.
If you returned any of these already because you’re a good person, you can make arrangements if you really want them back.
Personal Training
There has been a significant change to the personal training schedule; as such all training sessions starting Wednesday onward must be re-booked.
Sessions for Tuesday March 2, 2021 are still valid.
Personal Training will now focus on Functional Fitness training unless you’ve made alternate arrangements in advance.
All athletes will receive a “top-up” on personal training sessions starting next week.
This will work EXACTLY like it did 1 month ago. On Friday March 5 at 7:00pm, all members will receive an email with a link; you will click the link and more sessions will appear in your account.
Outdoor Fitness
Outdoor fitness at Stampede Youth Campus will continue, same schedule. You must have an active Functional Fitness membership to participate.
For the month of March, we will not be coordinating an official run club. (however we still encourage you to get out there together)
Starting in April, we will be operating a beginners and intermediate run club with We Run The World Coaching. Stay tuned for a sign up for that program later in March.
Virtual Class
Effective immediately, ALL virtual classes are cancelled.
*Strength Programing
Starting on Wednesday March 3, 2021, athletes may attend Frontier to participate in our typical group-style Olympic Weightlifting Training.
All Athletes must make a reservation on Wodify prior to arrival. There can be no drop-ins.
Upon arrival, all athletes must check in using the app. If you forget to check in, please let the coach know so he can check you in manually.
Reservations can only be made 1 day in advance.
All sessions will be 90 minute time slots. You must complete ALL your work (including warmup etc..) in this 90 minute slot.
(We are NOT doing 30 minute sessions anymore)
We have expanded this training type to accomodate 10 people.
Platforms are first come first serve - if there is no platform available, there will be room for 3 people in the Functional Fitness Area.
*Restrictions
The regulations “include activities not focused specifically on cardio, that have a low depth and rate of respiration.” This means:
No Cardio machines, except during personal training.
No high intensity movements that focus on cardio systems, except during personal training.
*SOCIAL DISTANCING
When in the FF Area, 3 meters distance must be observed between all athletes; STAY IN YOUR BOX
When in the platform area, 3 meters distance must be observed between all athletes; STAY ON YOUR PLATFORM
There can only be 2 people in the change rooms at a time.
Please remember, there may be personal training occuring in the FF area, please do not go outside your box.
*MASKS
If you are not actively working out, you must be wearing your mask.
*ETIQUETTE
Due to very limited space in the FF area do your very best to keep all lifting activities to the platforms or upstairs.
If there is no platform available, and you start your strength work in the FF area; please move to a platform when one becomes available.
Note about making reservations:
If you can not see the sessions in the Calendar on the app, please check to make sure you have "Olympic Weightlifting” turned on in the filter options.
Personal Training Sessions are booked under “appointments”
Weightlifting is booked under “Classes”
Waitlist
In the event the waitlist is full, when a spot becomes available the system will EMAIL everyone on the list a link. The first person to click the link, gets the available spot.
