Raise your hand how many of you, after a hard training session, ask only for a moment of healthy relaxation in a clean, well-kept environment equipped with all the comforts a person needs.
Yet in many gyms, sports centers and football fields the changing room is often considered a makeshift, a forgotten corner (present only by law) with structures that are often not functional and worse preserved.
Thinking that not impossible figures would be enough to modernize three or four indispensable elements and drastically improve the situation, but most of the time the investments are on the contrary reserved for the fleet of machines or the restyling of the reception, with the paradox of having double or triple versions of the same tool and a dressing room never up to par.
If you do not want to deny the right comfort to your customers, then take a look at the essential elements for a pleasant, modern and functional dressing room.
