The Plan
For those of you that know my background I previously owned and operated a local functional fitness gym in Newton Abbot known as RoarFit. The first wave of COVID taught me a lot and closing RoarFit gym through COVID19 was one of the hardest things I have had to face mentally. We know that action beats intention every day of the week and not acting on a second wave of lockdown is not an option for Primal Mvmnt. So we are getting ahead of the curve and sharing our plan with you.
The Good News we are 100 percent prepared for a second wave, and we’ve been planning for weeks. We know your best defense against any disease is a buffer of health, and we believe you need to keep working out. The Primal Mvmnt online plan was created in consultation with business owners and the best gym owners in the world. We know exactly how the leading functional fitness gyms around the world served their clients. You will receive that same elite level of care.
We have built a COVID secure plan inline with the recent UK government announcement that aligns with the three tiers. To ensure everyone understands the Government guidelines we have summarised them below and what they mean to gyms. You can find our more information HERE.
Tier 1 Level: Medium
“exercise classes and organised sport can continue to take place outdoors, or indoors if the rule of 6 is followed; there are exceptions for supervised activities for under-18s, and disability sport”
Tier 2 Level: High
“exercise classes and organised sport can continue to take place outdoors; these will only be permitted indoors if it is possible for people to avoid mixing with people they do not live with or share a support bubble with; there are exceptions for supervised activities for under-18s, and disability sport”
Tier 3 Level: Very High
“exercise classes and organised sport can continue to take place outdoors; these will only be permitted indoors if it is possible for people to avoid mixing with people they do not live with or share a support bubble with; there are exceptions for supervised activities for under-18s, and disability sport”
Primal Mvmnt takes COVID 19 very seriously and will constantly review its approach to ensure all interactions with our services are COVID secure, as per our Standard Operating Procedures and Risk Assessments. The Government guidelines are a little vague, so we have interpreted it in the following way for Primal Mvmnt:
Tier 1 Level: Medium
Continue as planned. No further changes required as we provide a controlled environment that complies with the rule of 6 and strict social distancing guidelines and cleaning regimes.
Tier 2 Level: High
Continue as planned. Offer remote options (Zoom) for Nutrition Coaching, Free Intros and Athlete Check In’s. Both measures ensure we provide a controlled environment that ensures people do not mix and are inline with the rule of 6 and strict social distancing guidelines and cleaning regimes.
Tier 3 Level: Very High
Reduce class capacities to increase social distancing further. Remote options ONLY for Nutrition Coaching, Free Intros and Athlete Check In’s. Both measures ensure we provide a controlled environment that ensures people do not mix and are inline with the rule of 6. If gyms are forced to close we move to a lockdown level plan.
Lockdown Plan
We appreciate your support a great deal. You’ll benefit from continuity with your training and personalised attention that’s focused on helping you accomplish your goals.

Coronavirus is a real concern, and, as our authorities state, prevention is best. For now, that means social distancing and hand washing.
But I’d like to suggest that prevention of disease is always the best plan—pandemic or not. For me, and for our clients, prevention involves non-medical health care in the form of regular exercise and healthy food.
Strong people never quit. Thank you for your support!
