Free fitness for teens
We want to make a difference to the lives of young Australians so Fitness First together with Target is providing the opportunity for every teenager to improve their fitness, health and lifestyle through our Fitness First Initiative for Teens or FFIT program. FFIT gives school students the opportunity to workout at our clubs for free during the school term and in the holidays. We offer a non-intimidating environment which encourages them to be active while also having a lot of fun.
“Target are proud to support Fitness First in the FFIT program. Target is passionate about the wellbeing of Australian school students and we encourage you step into the gym to stay fit, healthy and 100% Happy!” www.target.com.au

To register for FFIT Holidays download the FFIT Pre. Exercise Questionnaire. Download your pre exercise questionnaire here: http://www.fitnessfirst.com.au/static/Y/9/efbf5b0dcb44a8d656… This form must be signed by a parent/legal guardian over the age of 18yrs.
Call or visit your local club and ask reception to book you into the next FFIT Holidays Induction. It is recommended that you do this prior to the holidays starting.
When attending the 45 minute induction, you are required to bring with you your completed pre-exercise questionnaire, comfortable shoes and clothing, a water bottle and sweat towel. At the induction you will be shown around the club and shown how to use the equipment safely and effectively.
The FFIT Member may only receive the FFIT Holidays Membership Card once they have attended the induction and their pre-ex questionnaire has been signed by the Personal Training Manager. FFIT Members 16 yrs and over will be required to do an extra 20 minutes of the induction to learn about the weights and strength equipment.
Once the FFIT Member has completed the induction they will receive a membership card and a lanyard. It is required that you bring your membership card and lanyard with you upon every visit and it must be worn around the neck at all times whilst in the club.
This membership card provides you access to the club during school holidays dates only and during the specified FFIT Holidays times.
Please note that teens will not be supervised. Participants under the age of 16yrs are not to use the free weights or strength equipment. It is also recommended that your teenagers not be left at the gym for any longer than one hour at a time.
For more information please contact your local club.
"The FFIT program is a great way for teenagers to engage in
physical activity. Teens can work at their own pace and find
exercises and classes that they enjoy, and best of all - it's FREE!"
Geoff Huegill - FFIT Ambassador
FFIT ultimately aims to encourage young Australians to get active year round - for FREE - by providing them with a fun, non-intimidating and non-competitive environment in which to train, thereby motivating them to stay active and maintain a healthy lifestyle.
Enjoy :)
It's on every school holiday
But you have to get an introductory induction first before you can start using it, ring up your local FF to see when it does have its inductions
