S 4782 United States Senate · 118th Congress

Exercise and Fitness for All Act of 2024

This bill requires the Access Board to create guidelines for accessible exercise equipment and fitness services within 18 months. It directly affects fitness centers (like gyms in hotels, schools, or standalone facilities) that are public accommodations under the ADA. Key provisions include setting standards for equipment meeting ASTM accessibility guidelines, requiring proper placement of accessible machines, and mandating that providers train staff to assist people with disabilities and notify them about available support. The Department of Justice must then issue enforceable regulations based on these guidelines.
