Similar to my experience. The most people that have been in at any one time when I’ve been in the gym is 6. I’ve done Zumba and step class, about 25 people in Zumba (usually 50+) but they are limiting it to 32. Step has only ever had 9 in. my friend has been swimming and said she booked one of the last spaces but not everyone who booked in turned up as she knew how many people should have been in And how many actually were. It’s lovely to be back. I work in the leisure centre I attend but unfortunately I’m still a member of staff not back at work yet

Exactly and still same price for 4 hours less and less chance of getting into a class!

My daughter had been back in the local LA gym 4 days a week since the day they reopened. She’s been in with nothing to do since March so was going out of her mind. She has to book a slot. Wait outside to be let in. Can’t use the showers or changing rooms. Has to sanitise the equipment when she finishes but also chooses to do so before she starts. One way system in place. She says the meat men corner is as full as it’s allowed to be most visits but she does running machines, cross trainer and rowing and has never shared with more than 5 people. Her mental health is hugely improved. It’s a calculated risk of course but she feels it is well managed.

My DS has been going 4 times a week since ours opened. Same as others have said-have to book a slot, one way system, temp check on entry, hand gel and sanitisers everywhere to use before and after using equipment. They have spread all the equipment out over more rooms so more space generally. They close for an hour at lunch time to do a deep clean every day. He has only seen 6 in at any one time and had no issues getting a slot. Our gym is a community not for profit run business so really pleased they have managed to keep going and that people are gradually returning to support them.

Just thought I’d post a little update.
So with still no news of when the local authority gyms are going to be opening, I took the plunge and have got a membership at a 24/7 fitness gym. I had my induction today. Or should I say, I should have had my induction but the trainer didn’t turn up. The manager was very apologetic and showed me round and he did seem genuinely concerned as to where the trainer was as apparently it’s not like him. He’s offered me a free personal training session to make up for it and kept coming to check I was ok. To be honest, I wasn’t bothered. I only wanted an induction in case there were machines there I wasn’t familiar with and they were all pretty standard so I still managed a work out. I was actually quite happy with the gym. It’s got more machines, parking is easier, it’s closer to work and cheaper so think when it’s time that the LA gym opens, I might actually stick with the new one. The only thing it doesn’t have is swimming facilities but I don’t go swimming that often. I could pay on the door with the LA pool if they ever reopen and I want to go. Social distancing was good, hand sanitizer and cleaning equipment was good so all in all, I’m happy and it felt good to be back! 😊 Edited at 12:28 PM. |

Our gym opened last week but we haven't been back as yet. Think we will go next week to see whats what. So miss my 30 min run (dont run outside) Will start C25K again when we get back. Missed usuing the weight equipment too. I've exercised every day since gym closed which I will keep up as well as going to the gym as enjoy the adrenaline rush each morning. Defo feel fitter now that I actually did before gym closed which is good.
