Fit More Fitness: Utilize Every Square Foot with Room Dividers

Going to the gym can be intimidating, especially as a new member or beginner-level athlete. How can you as the gym owner welcome members in navigating the heart-pumping jungle and aid in reaching fitness goals without fear? There’s a way to transform this intimidation into a roadmap for success: training zones. Training zones provide structure to the workout and flow to the gym. And the best way to flex your gym’s areas is through room dividers.

Optimizing Every Square Foot 

General guidelines recommend 150 minutes of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise each week, along with two strength-training sessions. As a gym owner, by allocating specific areas for different workout styles, goals, and needs, you can create a more personalized experience that caters to your members’ fitness journeys.

Gyms can be broken up into various areas, like cardio, resistance machines, free weights, personal training sessions, group fitness classes, stretching and core exercises, and more. By incorporating room dividers and partitions, facilities can create designated zones for those different workouts, improving the overall gym layout flow. Dividers create a sense of separation; cardio enthusiasts can focus on their run on the treadmill while weightlifters pump iron with proper form and without distractions, and thus, increasing safety.

Privacy for Personalized Workouts 

Timid newcomers or those seeking one-on-one training might feel self-conscious in a fully open space. Room dividers can create private nooks for personal training sessions, allowing trainers and clients to focus on their workout routine without feeling like they are on display. The Room Divider 360® can easily be moved to create different configurations — in a straight line or in a C or L shape — based on the time of day or class schedule.

Our lineup of retractable, wall-mounted dividers are smart picks if you want to create a more permanent separation without the permit and hassles of building walls. The sliding hinges allow panels to glide open or closed in a telescoping fashion, creating a straight wall in your desired width.

Gym dividers also contribute to mental focus. By creating a visual barrier between different workout zones, members can minimize distractions and tune into their bodies during exercise, especially for activities like yoga or Pilates where concentration plays a vital role.

Sound Solution for Concentration

The sounds of clanging weights, thumping treadmills, high-energy fitness classes, and adrenaline-pumping grunts can be a turn-off for some gym goers. Sound-absorbing dividers can significantly reduce those noises, creating a more peaceful and enjoyable workout environment for members who prefer a quieter exercise experience.

Enhanced Member Experience

Room dividers extend beyond space optimization and privacy. Dividers can be used to make a more visually appealing gym environment. How so? Strategically placed dividers can conceal less attractive areas like storage spaces or equipment waiting for repairs. The custom-printed Room Divider 360® can elevate the overall aesthetic and brand identity with the gym’s logo and colors or motivational quotes. Many of our room dividers are tackable, so gym owners can pin or post facility updates, classes, trainer bios, and other info. The DivideWrite™ Portable Whiteboard Partition and DivideWrite™ Full-Length Mobile Whiteboard also allow for easy gym updates — all you need are some dry-erase markers.
