Gym Status: OPEN
Our Ultimate Performance Hong Kong gym is open.
With the extensive hygiene measures we have in place, we believe it is safe to train as normal.
Just like you, we are continually monitoring all global developments in the spread of COVID-19. We continue to maintain the highest standards of cleanliness and hygiene to ensure the health and safety of Ultimate Performance clients, trainers and staff alike.
We are using the measures imposed in our Singapore gym, and by the Singaporean Government as a whole, as the current gold standard for every Ultimate Performance location worldwide.
We will endeavour to answer all of the commonly-asked COVID-19 and coronavirus questions below, and will continue to update this page with the latest information.
Take care of yourselves and stay safe.
