Excellent observation. We’ve found apparatus bays as the most contaminated areas in stations. Should fitness take place on apparatus floors ? ⬆️ physical state, inhalation close to floors, disturbed particulate, ⬆️ skin temp and open pores. Can we find better alternatives ?

Toxic tradition: Should furniture be allowed in the apparatus bays?
Based on the limited research, and in accordance with best practices, the risk of cancer can be reduced by limiting time spent in the apparatus bay
