Age Restrictions

Activities and pricing which vary depending on your age

Why are there age restrictions?

We want to keep everyone who uses Glasgow Club safe and healthy - we also want getting active to be affordable. This is why some activities and memberships have age limits and this page helps explain these.

Fitness Classes

If you are 12 or 13, you can't join certain fitness classes like:

  • BODYPUMP
  • Grit
  • G-Cycle & RPM (i.e. spin)

These classes are very intense and require a lot of strength and control. Your muscles and bones are still growing, and these classes could be too hard on your body. Some equipment is not suited to smaller users too. We want to make sure you stay safe and enjoy your time at the gym.

Gym

Before you can use the gym on your own, you need to complete the first two stages of your Fitness Journey. This is very important for your safety and success. These sessions are free with membership and will get you into the gym and using the kit. 

  1. Learning to Use the Equipment

    • Our gym team will show you how to use the machines and weights.
    • You will learn the best exercises to reach your fitness goals.
    • This helps prevent injuries and ensures you are working out correctly.

  2. Understanding Gym Etiquette

    • You will learn the rules of the gym, like how to clean equipment after use.
    • It’s important to be respectful to others in the gym.
    • Knowing gym etiquette helps everyone have a good experience.

After completing these stages, you will be able to use the gym whenever you want, safely and confidently. Our team is here to help you every step of the way!

If you have any questions or need help, just ask one of our friendly gym team members. We're here to support you on your fitness journey!

Membership & Activity Prices

We offer affordably priced membership plans and and junior price for activities on a Pay As You Go basis. This helps younger members and students since most are still in full-time education or aren't earning yet. 

Junior prices for activities booked on a Pay As You Go basis are availble to those aged under 18 but you may be asked to provide proof of age.

FitClub membership plans are available from the age of 12, with affordable pricing for those aged up to 21 years. After signing up you'll need to provide proof of age online or in person at any of our venues.
