How do I get a locker or towel when I visit the gym?
Lockers are available for day use only. Simply put your stuff in an open locker and remove the key. All keys have a wrist band on them so you can attach it to you while you work out. Sweat towels are dispensed throughout the gym with sanitary towel dispensers. These towels can also be used with the anti-bacterial spray bottles to clean your equipment if necessary. For bath towels please get one per visit from the front desk. There is no cost for locker or towel use.

How do I get started with some help beyond my basic membership?
If you need help getting started, our staff will be happy to teach you. A staff member can even demonstrate exercises and make sure that you know how to properly and safely use all the equipment. We also have group fitness classes such as Pure Pump and Spin to help jump-start your fitness routine and variety of cardio machines. Should you require more assistance, please inquire about our personal training services.

What kind of help can I expect as a new member since am not gym experienced?
We specialize in people who are unfamiliar with use of a gym. We understand that just walking in the first time can feel very intimidating. For that reason we trip over ourselves to create a warm and welcoming environment and we are willing to answer any fitness question you may have without being condescending. There are a lot of barriers for most people to get into a gym and we make it a point to be aware of those and reduce them as much as possible. We will make sure that you are fully oriented so that you can get the most out of your membership. Ask about the free personalized fitness plan offered to new members (a $325 value!!). Here you will get to meet one-on-one with a personal fitness coach and get a real plan to help you reach your goals as quickly as possible.

What if someone is using a piece of equipment that I want to use?
The proper gym etiquette is to politely ask if you can "work in" with them. When working in with someone, always show courtesy and clean your equipment if necessary and step off while you are resting so that they can continue their workout. Some exercises have more than one place you can do them as well and you can always ask for assistance from a staff member to show you some alternatives. Since we are not an extremely high-volume ‘big box” club, we rarely have the congestion problems many individuals experience at other clubs.

If I have a problem with my membership whom do I call?
A Membership Specialist at the club can deal with 99% of problems that can come up. If you have a problem with your electronic funds transfer, you can contact ABC Financial directly as well. We will give you that contact info upon request.

Cleanliness is important to me. How can I help keep the gym clean when I visit?
Thanks for asking! You will notice from your very first that JP Fitness Center is always clean and neat. We are very proud of the fact that it does not smell like a gym! There is towelette dispensers located throughout the gym, along with anti-bacterial cleaner spray bottles. If your equipment is sweaty when you’re done please wipe the equipment down. Also, please help us keep the upscale appearance of our fitness center by putting weights or dumbbells away when you are finished with them. If you see that a restroom or shower needs cleaning, please immediately notify a staff member so we can immediately correct the situation.

Are there other people like me at JP Fitness Center?
We are an upscale adult facility; therefore we cater to a professional adult population. Our typical members are between the ages of 30 to 60 years-old, with exceptions in both directions. Few people come here who are already fit, so if you are de-conditioned, don’t be discouraged because you are not alone. Our male to female ratio is about 50:50. During your orientation you will find that we have a wide variety of shapes and sizes and we want you to feel welcome and accepted here because our philosophy is based on meeting you where you are health and fitness-wise. You will rarely if ever see "bodybuilders" working out here, although we welcome everyone without discrimination.

Do you have tanning beds?
Yes, we have a high pressure 15 minute bed, so you can enjoy keeping a little color on you as you go through the winter season without pasty skin, or maintain a healthy glow year round. Studies show some health benefits associated with the sunlight derived from a tanning bed; however, we encourage our patrons to tan in moderation and use extreme caution when utilizing this service so that you don’t “overdo it”. Call for your appointment today.

You are welcome to bring a guest. Our daily fee is $15 or $7.50 if that visitor is accompanied by a member. If your guest is local and interested in becoming a member we will set them up with a 14-day free pass. Please do not bring guests with you after hours or you could lose your after-hours access.

What are your hours of operation?
We are staffed Monday through Friday 6 am to 7 pm, although once patrons are registered, they enjoy real 24/7 access to the club year round. Security is on hand 24 hours per day along with an after-hours phone message service if you have problems with your keycard or have any safety concerns. Medical alert lanyards which notify MEMS for immediate medical attention are also available at our facility to our after-hours guests free of charge for added safety and comfort.
