With a junior gym membership, kids have access to special supervised gym sessions at certain times during the day (3pm-5pm). This allows kids aged between 11 and 15 to take advantage of the top-class fitness equipment, whether they want to enjoy a cardio workout on the treadmills, cycling machines cross trainers and rowing machines, a light resistance workout or give functional exercises a try, their local Everyone Active gym has everything they need to enjoy a thorough workout.

To confirm your free membership, please reserve a place on the 21st July 2026. Please note that the 21st July is just a registration placeholder date on Eequ. A member of our team will then contact you to create your membership. Once created your child will need to book in for a gym induction to be able to use the gym, this can be booked via the app or you can call the centre.

Junior Gym timings can vary so please check with the centre. A gym induction will have to be completed before your child can use the facilities. This will need to be booked in prior so please contact the centre to book this in.

Gym Equipment All Aged 12+ Can Use

Once you reach the age of 12, your options widen a little bit. As well as all those mentioned above, you can also start to use the Watt Bike (as long as you are 4 ft 11 inches tall or above), as well as pin-loaded weights. These pieces of equipment require a high level of technique to compete correctly. At this age a juniors shoulders, neck and spin are more susceptible to serious injury if these exercises are done incorrectly.

Gym Equipment Only for use by those Aged 14+

Upon reaching 14, your options expand still further. As well as all those you’ll find above, you can also use the lat pull down machine, any cabled machines, as well as plyometric boxes and steps. Be sure only to jump onto these, however, and not off them. If you’re unsure, however, it’s important you always speak to an instructor for guidance on progression when exercising – and that counts for all age groups.

Cable machines refer to equipment that does not have a single fixed line of movement. Please see some examples of cable machines:

Gym Equipment not to be used by anyone Under 16

Although that is a fairly comprehensive list of equipment that anyone aged 11-15 can use, there are a few bits of kit that we do ask you not to use until you are 16 or over. This measure is only for your own safety as these pieces of equipment can often feature extremely heavy weights that may well injure you either when loading them onto the rack, or in the process of doing the workout itself.

Don’t forget that your body is still growing and developing, so you are more likely to hurt yourself between the ages of 11 and 15 compared with fully developed adults. The equipment we ask you not to use is as follows:

Plate Loaded Machines or Barbells
Tank/Sledge
Kettlebells
Bench Press
Smith Machine
Lifting Platforms & Half Racks
Boxing Equipment
Flexibility Equipment
