We have been working hard to prepare both our programming and facility to make sure we are in-sync with state and local guidelines, but more importantly to make sure you feel safe and empowered while you’re training with us. Below is an outline of the measures we are taking in order to re-open with that in mind.
FACILITY SAFETY
What is TCBOOST doing to ensure that the indoor training facility is clean, sanitary and safe?
- Our entire 10,000 square foot facility has been professionally cleaned, sanitized and fumigated.
What protocol will TCBOOST coaches follow to provide the safest possible training environment for clients?
- All coaches are equipped with hospital-grade sanitizing spray and a cleaning cloth to wipe down all equipment immediately after use by each client.
- All coaches wear face masks at all times while coaching in-facility, and at all times outdoors when they are unable to maintain proper social distancing from a client.
- All coaches will keep 6ft (social distancing) between themselves and their clients whenever possible throughout training sessions.
- Any coach that experiences potential symptoms (coughing, aching, chills, fever, etc.) will NOT come into the facility.
What about the other staff members in-facility who are not actively conducting 1-on-1 personal training sessions?
- We have a new, dedicated facility sanitization lead with the sole responsibility to sanitize and wipe down all equipment and high-touch surfaces throughout the day.
- At the end of each day, all staff members will collectively sanitize and wipe down all equipment and other high-touch surfaces before exiting the facility.
How are you keeping the facility’s equipment safe and sanitary for clients?
- We are removing all non-essential equipment from the facility in order to minimize high-touch surfaces and keep our training space as safe as possible.
- Each client is assigned their own dedicated set of equipment per session, and therefore not share, or touch, any other equipment.
- Once each client is done with a piece of equipment for their session, that client’s coach will carefully sanitize, wipe down and put it away.
Are there any other advantages that TCBOOST’s facility has in terms of providing a safe training environment?
- At 10,000 square feet with 18 foot ceilings, our facility will provide clients with significant personal space and social distancing while training, as well as continuous fresh air circulation throughout the day.
- Whenever possible, we will have the facility’s four large garage doors and five additional doors open to create maximum air exchange and fresh air flow.
- When conditions are too hot or humid to safely keep these doors open, we have five rooftop HVAC units that dehumidify the air, create cooler temperatures and ensure continuous air circulation.
PROGRAMMING
What programs will be offered ?
- In accordance with IDPH guidelines, we are offering 1-on-1 personal training in our facility as well as small group programs in-facility and outdoors.
- Group programs for Youth Speed Foundations (Ages 8-11); JV Speed and Agility (Ages 12-14); Varsity Speed, Agility and Strength (Ages 14-18), College Speed, Agility and Strength and our Track Program are offered.
- BOOSTFit Adult classes are offered 5 days a week (Mon.-Fri.) and can be purchased in a single session, 10-Packs or as a 12 month contract.
If I come to the facility without having signed up for a program, can I train as a drop-in?
- No, all clients must sign up ahead of time online, by emailing tcboost@tcboost.com or by calling 847-559-2307 to ensure there is room for you in the program and in order for us to maintain no more than 10 people in the facility at one time.
In what ways is TCBOOST prioritizing social distancing throughout all programming?
- We reinvented our workout programs with social distancing as the highest priority, alongside our consistent dedication to injury prevention and performance enhancement.
- Clearly-marked individual training zones within our facility will allow our coaches to guide clients through training sessions while keeping a safe distance from other personnel.
CLIENT AGREEMENT
As a TCBOOST client, what am I expected to do before, during and after a training session?

- We will close the facility to deep clean and allow all surfaces/equipment to be sanitized and fumigated. We will reopen as soon as it is deemed safe to do so.
- We will notify everyone who has come into contact with that coach or client over the previous 14 days since the positive test.
- The TCBOOST coach, staff member or client who tested positive will not be able to return until they are medically cleared to do so.
