The same happened with me. The reason I gather is that they will have it on record that you were showed the correct procedures of their gym. And so if the customer is not inducted, and if anything like an accident happened, then the gym would be negligent. They also have to ascertain the customer's health and level of fitness, or talk over their needs, and so treat everyone as new. All gyms as far as I know have to include an induction. I may be wrong, but thats my guess :)

Oh I understand why and all, it's just frustrating. It means now that I'm not going to be able to start for another week when I'm fairly sure they won't have anything there I'm not comfortable using. (And even if they did, I wouldn't be stupid enough to go about using the damn stuff now!)

Yeah, I do see why they do it - was listening to something on Radio 4 the other day about us becoming a particularly litigous society... bad news...
