The Covid-19 Protocol

CrossFit Rush is committed to keeping both it’s coaches and members safe from Covid-19.  Here’s how we are doing just that. Please note that the recommendations set forth by the EOHU are ever evolving. Since these videos were made, we have added some steps. 1) A Covid-19 screening is done prior to arrival at the facility. 2) Each member of the coaching team as well as member has their temperature taken upon arrival.

CLEANING PROTOCOL

  1. The equipment used during class is cleaned by each member after each class under the supervision of the class instructor.
  2. The floor is mopped after each class by the instructor.
  3. High touch surfaces are cleaned after each class (door handles, bathrooms, markers, PR bell).

While we have implemented a strict protocol, the risk of transmission is still possible.  If we all do our part to prevent the spread of Covid-19 (frequent hand washing, proper cough and sneeze etiquette, social distancing, wearing a mask when necessary and staying home if you or anyone around you is experiencing signs or symptoms of Covid-19), we have a good chance to keep the community safe while enjoying the many benefits of exercising.
