Abstract

The Q-Fitness Gym System (QFGS) is a web-based management platform developed to enhance the operational efficiency of fitness centres through automation and integration. The system centralizes key functionalities, including member registration, class scheduling, staff and instructor management, and secure payment processing. Designed using the Agile methodology, QFGS ensures iterative development, adaptability, and continuous improvement based on user feedback. The system architecture follows a three-tier design, emphasizing scalability and data security through a MySQL relational database. Comprehensive testing, including unit, integration, and user acceptance tests, verified the functionality, usability, and reliability of the system. The implementation of QFGS demonstrates significant improvements in administrative productivity, resource utilization, and member satisfaction by reducing manual tasks and providing an intuitive digital experience. Overall, QFGS offers an innovative solution for modern gym management, bridging the gap between traditional operations and smart digital transformation.
