PHYSIQ FITNESS HAS TAKEN THE
ACTIVE & SAFE COMMITMENT
Physiq Fitness is proud to announce its participation in The Active & Safe Commitment, which reaffirms the club’s unyielding dedication to safety at a time when exercise has never been more important to the health of the communities we serve.
The Active & Safe Commitment is a worldwide initiative launched by the health and fitness industry’s trade association, the International Health, Racquet & Sportsclub Association (IHRSA). Developed by industry experts in accordance with the foremost public health guidance on COVID-19, the Active & Safe Commitment serves three main purposes:
- To demonstrate our industry’s united commitment to safety for members, guests, staff, and communities
- To provide health club members and guests with well-founded peace of mind during club visits;
- To reassure policymakers and public health officials that health clubs should not be shut down during the COVID-19 pandemic, but rather should be relied upon as safe environments for exercise that can serve as responsible, credible, and effective partners for reducing the pandemic’s catastrophic toll on physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing.
By participating in the initiative, Physiq Fitness joins health clubs around the globe in publicly pledging to follow industry best practices in four operational categories:

We look forward to continuing our vital role as a community partner in reducing the pandemic’s catastrophic toll on physical, mental, and emotional wellbeing.
