RQ Gym
The use of the RQ gym will be managed by the RQ office and is to be utilized by QLD State teams, Passport and NTID members. The RQ gym will offer a facility with the space and equipment that allows Olympic lifting and other compound exercises that rowing clubs do not have.
The equipment includes:
- Two lifting platforms
- Two bench press
- Two bench pull
- Squat machine
- Medicine balls
- Swiss balls
- Associated Olympic lifting bars and weights
The facility will be supervised by either a member of RQI staff or a Strength and Conditioning coach who will be working at the gym on Monday, Wednesday and Fridays afternoons. The capacity of the RQ gym will hold up to 8 rowers per session.
No athletes or coaches are to utilise the RQ gym unless prior approval from RQ is provided.
In future the RQ gym will also provide athlete screening services and physiological support for monitored ergo work to aid performance profiling.
