toiletries for showering and a towel in a bag which you can place on the sides
of the Centre during your workout until ready to use.

will affect the temperature.
Are there time restrictions on the equipment use?
You are encouraged to move through equipment at your own
pace, taking rest and water when you need. If you are a beginner, you may want to switch
to a piece of equipment that is not in use if others are waiting. There is no time limit for the use of each of
the various equipment, and most of the equipment have two units available.
What are your busy times?
During the early morning and after working hours are the
busy time. If you prefer a quieter time with less people that is normally
during the day or later in the evening.
