How to check popular times in the GymMaster App

Some of our members asked if there was a way to see when Gym Lab tends to be quieter or busier throughout the day.

We contacted GymMaster to see if real time attendance data could be provided to members. While real time numbers aren’t currently available, they were able to enable the “Popular Times” feature within the member portal.

This feature gives a helpful indication of when the gym is typically quieter or busier based on member activity.

How to Find Popular Times in the App

Open the GymMaster app and follow these steps:

1. Tap Menu

2. Select Portal

3. Click Training

4. Select Popular Times

You will then see a graph showing when the gym is generally quieter or busier throughout the day.

A Couple of Things to Keep in Mind

The numbers shown include everyone currently checked into the gym, so there are a few things that may influence the data.

Group fitness classes: Members attending classes are included in the attendance numbers. During class times the gym may appear busier in the app than it actually feels in the weights area.

GORH Allied Health Sessions: Great Ocean Road Health runs a session in the main gym area Monday, Wednesday and Thursday from 2–3pm. During this time the back shed remains open and available for members.

Why We Added This Feature

We know some members prefer quieter training times, while others enjoy a more social gym atmosphere. The Popular Times feature simply helps give you a guide when planning your visit.

If you ever have questions about gym access or quieter training times, feel free to chat with us at the gym.
