What is a gym class timetable?
A gym class timetable shows every group exercise class across a week: what it is, which day, when it starts and how long it lasts. Most are laid out with days across the top and times down the side. A good one also shows how demanding each class is, where it takes place and how to book, so members can plan their week at a glance.
When it helps
- A gym or leisure centre printing a new timetable when classes change for the season.
- A studio owner posting the week's classes at reception and on social media.
- A member planning which morning and evening classes fit around work.
- An instructor checking which slots are free before proposing a new class.
Tips
- Cut out long gaps with no classes, such as the quiet middle of the day, and label the break; otherwise empty space squeezes the busy slots.
- Use a condensed typeface for class names so they fit narrow day columns without shrinking to an unreadable size.
- Never rely on colour alone for intensity; add a word or symbol so members with colour vision deficiency can read the timetable too.
How to make a gym class timetable
List every class and slot
Gather each class with its day, start time, length and studio before drawing anything, and check for clashes between rooms and instructors.
Put days across, time down
Use seven columns for the days and a time axis running down the side, so morning classes sit above evening ones in every column.
Draw classes to their length
Make each block as tall as the class runs, so a 30-minute HIIT session looks half the size of a 60-minute yoga class.
Show intensity with colour
Give classes two or three tints for low, moderate and high intensity, with a key, so beginners can find a suitable class quickly.
Add booking and dates
State the date the timetable starts, how and how far ahead to book, the opening hours and any rule such as arriving five minutes early.
FAQQuestions
Common questions.
How long is a typical gym class?
Most group exercise classes run for 30 to 60 minutes. High intensity formats such as HIIT are often 30 to 45 minutes, while yoga, Pilates and strength classes usually take 45 to 60 minutes. The timetable should show each class's length, not just its start time.
What is the difference between HIIT and circuits?
HIIT alternates short bursts of near-maximum effort with brief rests, aiming to raise the heart rate sharply. Circuits move people through a series of exercise stations, often mixing strength and cardio, at a steady or high pace. A circuit can be run as HIIT, but not all circuits are.
Which gym classes are best for beginners?
Lower-intensity classes such as Pilates, stretch, aqua fit or a beginners' yoga class are good starting points, because the pace is steady and movements can be adapted. Instructors are used to newcomers, so arriving early to mention any injuries is a good habit.
