Executive summary
This research is about the fitness and customer satisfaction on services provided by our Gym

existing members and 30 potential customers to collect data. From the gathered data of a
sampling group we made various analyses with spss software. From the analysis we found some
conclusions, findings and those are included in this project.
Objectives
To get a clear understand about customer attitude, personality, social class and
motivation.
To identify the improvements to be implemented.
Able to get a practical experience on how to prepare a report and enhance the knowledge
on how to analyze the data.
Introduction
Physical activity plays a significant role in preventing premature death and illness, and being active also
helps to maintain a healthy weight, promotes positive mental health and contributes to social
Connectedness
A successful gym centre will be the result of careful and thorough planning well before it is up and
running. Without adequate planning, the project may never even get past the planning stage or it is very
likely to fail. Therefore, it is vital that a feasibility study be undertaken before any progress is made
towards funding or development without clear direction. A feasibility study will address the issues
Involved in establishing and maintaining gym and will enable those involved to make a decision about
whether to proceed with the idea.
This data presentation assignment relating to consumer behavior is prepared to enhance our
knowledge about customer attitude, personality, social class motivation and satisfaction of our
Gym centre.

Developments required to improve our Gymnasium based on the customer opinion
Based on the survey customer required various ideas to develop and improve our Gym centre. I
mention some information below.
• Utilizing appropriate equipment and maintenance practice
• Adhering to industry standards
• Employing appropriately qualified staff and volunteers
• Inducting and/or supervising users
• Taking out an insurance policy
• Establishing legal agreements and relationships.
• Training and protecting gym users, staff and volunteers
• having a person or committee that takes responsibility for reducing risks
• Encouraging users, staff and volunteers to be proactive in promoting a safe environment in the
gym
• implementing systems to support risk management practices (e.g. reporting hazards, incident
reports, emergency evacuation plan)
Establishing and documenting gym policies and procedures so that all who use the gym have
access to them either at the gym or online
• Creating and documenting a safety checklist and a signage checklist for the gym including a
signed maintenance log for each piece of equipment.
• Equipment should be set out to ensure that all exercise areas contain safe working spaces and
that user numbers do not hinder the safe and effective use of the training equipment. User
numbers may need to be restricted if space is limited.
• All equipment should be mechanically sound and installed and operated in accordance with the
manufacturer’s instructions and standards.
• All equipment should be routinely serviced. Maintenance checks should be undertaken on a
daily or weekly basis according to the manufacturer’s recommendations and gym usage. A
signed logbook to document this process should be kept for each piece of equipment
• Instructors who deliver fitness programs and supervise gyms that are open to the public should
be registered fitness instructors and have appropriate qualifications.
• There should be an appropriately qualified employee supervising at all times
• There must be a clear policy displayed in the gym specifically relating to age limits and
supervision that covers all users of the gym. Once the minimum age entry requirement has been
defined, management must continue to follow those limits.
• Persons younger than 16 years of age should not be permitted to use the gym unless they are
supervised by a suitable person and have had a written program prepared for them by qualified
personnel
