The below information applies to locations in Massachusetts (Beverly and Medford):
Gym Hours
Operating hours will be modified temporarily to allow for thorough cleaning and disinfecting of the gyms overnight.
Monday: 6 am – 9 pm
Tuesday: 6 am – 9 pm
Wednesday: 6 am – 9 pm
Thursday: 6 am – 9 pm

Masks and Gloves
In accordance with local regulations, face coverings are required for all workers and visitors, except where unsafe due to medical conditions or disability. If customers cannot wear a face-covering during strenuous fitness activities, physical distancing must be at least 14 feet. If customers are wearing face coverings during fitness activities, physical distancing must be at least 6 feet. All Blink employees will be wearing masks and gloves at all times.
Temperature Checks
We will be taking the temperatures of our members and our employees as they enter the gym. Consistent with local guidelines, any member or employee with a temperature of 100°F or higher will not be given access to the gym.
Gym Amenities and Programming
Showers are temporarily unavailable for use. Guest access and lockers are available.
Gym Equipment
We’ve reorganized gym layouts to further support local guidelines for social distancing. To keep members 6 feet apart, some cardio machines will be unavailable for use.
Everybody Cleans
Building on our already strong cleaning standards and consistent with local guidelines, we highly recommend members disinfect equipment before and after each use.
Limited Capacity
While we are operating at 40% capacity based on local guidelines and feedback from members regarding reopening plans, Blink does not expect this reduced capacity will impact access to the gym or require members to wait for access. The potential for waiting for access increases during the gym's peak hours. Please call your gym for specific capacity restrictions.
Personal Training
PT clients with a scheduled appointment will have priority entry into the gym and should immediately proceed to see the greeter at the gym entrance or the Mood Lifters at the front desk to gain priority access.
Membership Refreeze
When your gym reopens all memberships will be unfrozen. We realize that not everybody will be ready to come back to the gym, so we are offering all members the option to refreeze their membership for an additional 30 days at no cost.
Membership Credit
If you paid monthly membership dues for March 17 - March 31 we will be adding a credit equal to 15 days to your account. This credit will be applied to your next month’s dues. If you have a paid-in-full membership, we will be extending your agreement for the number of days the gym was closed.
Membership Billing
Billing will resume on a normal schedule when the gym reopens (unless you choose to refreeze your membership). Dues will be billed on August 1st or on your anniversary billing date based on your agreement.
