North Carolina recently lifted COVID-19 restrictions on gyms and fitness centers. Effective Monday October 5th, Athletic Lab will enter the next phase of our reopening. We will continue to expand our schedule as demand requires and we are able to maintain the highest standards of safety and cleanliness.

Collegiate Training

Athletic Lab will offer our world renowned sports performance training for collegiate athletes. The 75 minute sessions will be offered Monday, Wednesday and Friday at 1 pm. Each session will address speed, strength, power and conditioning. Membership pricing will follow our Scholastic Sports Performance Membership options.

Open Gym

We have expanded mid-day open gym offerings for those members with grandfathered open gym memberships as well as any of our standard weightlifting or Performance Fitness memberships. These sessions are not supervised and observing social distancing and cleanliness is required. Cleaning supplies are available throughout the facility and attendees are expected are expected to disinfect any and all equipment that they use. Open gym access ends at the scheduled time and attendees are expected to leave the training hall floor promptly so that we can maintain capacity limits and social distancing. Failure to adhere to these guidelines will result in a warning and possible membership revocation.

Updated Schedule

Please note the following updates to our schedule. As always, the most updated schedule can always be found on our Schedule Page. Please also read our updated policies and procedures.

Reservation Policy

We have increased class size limits for most of our training sessions in response to the most recent North Carolina guidelines. We have adapted our spaces to ensure social distancing and cleanliness. That said, spaces remain limited for all classes. Spaces are not guaranteed unless they have been reserved in advance. All reservations should be made through our membership management portal. Participation in all sessions requires an active membership (or a paid drop-in) and completion of a supplemental waiver. Members may complete the supplemental waiver on their membership management portal if they have not already done so. Individuals with prior reservations and those attending coached classes will be given priority for space. Time slots will be limited to the scheduled duration of the class or open gym session.

Indoor and Outdoor Open Gym

For the time being, open gym is only permitted during designated hours. We offer both indoor and outdoor open gym opportunities. Reservations are required. Equipment and a supervisory coach will be onsite during open gym hours. Members may follow our remote programming or do a session of their choosing during the designated times. Until further notice, we require individuals in open gym to remain within the designated locations. Individuals attending outdoor open gym will be assigned their own “training bay.” Individuals attending indoor open gym will be restricted to a designated area of the facility.

Outdoor Classes

Reservations are required. Individuals will be assigned their own “training bay” to ensure safe social distancing and allow staff to appropriately clean equipment after each use. A maximum of 4 reservable training bays will be available depending on the class.

Inclement Weather Policy for Outdoor Classes

In the event of poor weather conditions that risk health and safety, Athletic Lab will make every attempt to move outdoor classes indoors. We do, however, reserve the right to cancel the outdoor class if moving the session indoors would compromise our ability to follow current NC Phase 2.5 guidelines for social distancing, occupancy and group sizes.

Drop-ins and Free Trials

Due to concerns of space management, we are not currently offering free trials. We ask that anyone wishing to attend without an existing membership reserve and pay the standard class drop-in fee. In the event that the individual signs up for an active membership, the drop-in fee will be credited towards the first membership payment.

Hold Policy

Our COVID-19 account hold policy will be extended. Members may extend their complimentary hold through October 30th. If you wish to do so, please contact us.
