Scheduling Your Private Gym Experience
The Scheduling Process
We are about to get really, really meta here… You are going to see how to use the scheduling system of the site, within the site! One of the primary motivations about this personal gym experience is that the space is your private space for your time slot. There are a couple of things in play here…
Firstly, you will be more motivated to go to the gym if you have set aside the dedicated time block for the purpose. This motivation really helps move you into achieving your fitness goals. Secondly, no-one else (besides management) can unlock the door while your time block is active! We do this by linking the scheduling software in our website to the door lock.
In order to schedule some time within the facility, you go to the Schedule page of our site. As seen below you are greeted by a login form. Below the form is a link to register with our site.
On the registration page we ask you for a username, your email address, and a password and password confirmation. We will use this email address to communicate with you, and send you information about the gym. We assume that is okay if you give us your email address! Once you click the “Register” button the computers in the cloud crank away and eventually lead you to our main scheduling page shown below.
As you can see, the interface only allows you to pick time slots a rolling 7 days out. This is on purpose, to make you check back in with us and follow up on your fitness goals, instead of setting a bunch of dates far out in the future, and not actually remembering them!
You may notice that your appointments have a green border with the word “Me” in the title of the event, and other people’s appointments have a black border with no title. Since this is a private gym experience, you are not allowed to overbook another person’s appointment.
To book an event, heavy click on the time you would like and drag your mouse down to the correct end time. If you are using a mobile device, I find it best to use the device in landscape mode, and you will have to super long press on the start time. Atleast 2 second tap is required to create a new event, and then you can use your finger to drag the event across the calendar. Upon doing this you will be presented with a modal dialog that asks you if you got the right times.
Clicking the “Yes” button will automatically save the booking in our servers. You can tell if your booking made it to our servers by refreshing the scheduling page, and verifying that you see a green bordered calendar event on the screen with the word “Me” in it as shown below:
Upon your first session you will be greeted by management and given a key fob, the code of conduct, and sign waivers. Your first session will also be a detailed rundown of all the safety equipment in the gym, so book at least 30 minutes more than you expect, as we absolutely need to cover things to keep you safe.
We are excited to have you use our gym, please use the contact us page on the site to ask us any questions you might have about the process!
