Which TWO facilities at the leisure club have recently been improved?

On behalf of LP Clubs, I’d like to welcome you all here today. My name ‘s Sandy Fisher and I’m one of the fitness managers here. Before we start our tour of the club I’ll just run through some basic information about the facilities we have here, including recent improvements, and explain the types of membership available.  Our greatest asset is probably our swimming pool which at 25 metres isn’t Olympic-sized, but now we’ve expanded it to eight lanes. it is much wider. This means there are rarely more than a couple of people at the time in each lane.Unfortunately, there isn’t space for an outdoor pool here but the glass roof on the swimming pool is partly retractable, which means you can enjoy something of the open-air experience on warmer days.Our recently refurbished fitness suite has all the latest exercise equipment including ten new running machines, and a wide range of weight-training machines.  Each member is given full training in how to operate the equipment and there is always a trainer on duty to offer help and advice. Although we do have adult-only times after 6 and at certain times at weekends, children are well catered for. Older children continue to benefit from a wide range of tuition; anything from trampolining to yoga.

Questions 13- 20

Complete the notes below.

Write NO MORE THAN TWO WORDS for each answer.

One thing all our members appreciate about us is that we take very good care of them. This starts on day one with your personal assessment. You are asked to fill in a questionnaire giving details of any health problems. One of our personal trainers will then go through this with you.

The trainer will then take you through the safety rules for using the equipment in the fitness suite. During your next exercise session a personal trainer will work with you to make sure you understand these. It’s very important to do this because we really do what to avoid having any sports injuries. There’s a lot more to looking after yourself than simply lifting weights.

Gold membership entitles you to free entry  at all LP Clubs. There are now LP Clubs in all major cities and towns so if you travel a lot this will be a great advantage. Individual gold membership costs £50 a month and joint membership for you and your partner will cost £75.

 Gold members are given 17……..free entry………………..to all the LP clubs.***(Gold membership entitles you to free entry  at all LP Clubs.)***


Premier membership is for professional people whose work commitments make it difficult for them to use the club during the day and so LP gives booking preferences to Premier members at peak times.This means you will find it easier to book the sessions at times that suit you.

 Premier members are given priority during  18………….peak………….hours.


Reciprocal arrangements with other LP Clubs are available to Premier members. Premier membership is for individuals only, but you will be sent passes for quests every month. The monthly fee is £65.

 Premier members can bring some 19………quests………..every month.


You don’t have to any special clothes or equipment when you visit the club. We provide robes and hairdryers in the changing rooms, but it’s very important to remember your photo card because you won’t be able to get in without it. For people who aren’t working during the day then….

 Members should always take their 20……..photo card……………….with them.
