Summary: The video discusses the roles and permissions section of Fitbox Gym. By default, Fitbox Gym has two role types: Administration and Member. However, many gyms create an additional Coaching role to limit access to sensitive modules like finance. This ensures that coaches can help with workout programming and session management without accessing crucial financial details. To create a new user role, one needs to click on "create role", provide a name and description for the role, determine if they are a staff member, and then set permissions for the role using a tree structure. For instance, while setting up the Coaching role, one might want to exclude financial permissions. Once the desired permissions are set, the role can be created.
