A number of gyms in Europe and America have already announced they are closing due to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Research shows that gyms can be highly infectious, I can only assume this is due to all the sweating and heavy breathing...
Although most gyms are remaining opening, and are introducing further cleaning procedures and facilities. The gym I attend doesn't seem to do any sort of cleaning usually, so this is great news if you ask me.
Some chains who have chosen to close their gyms are getting creative and are offering free at home workout classes in an attempt to retain memberships over the next few months. But lets be honest, no one's going to remember to cancel their gym membership, they're all too busy losing their minds over how many loo rolls they have. You'd think COVID-19 symptoms would include diarrhoea by the amount of bog rolls people are hoarding. Although the symptoms do include coughing, which means your core will still get a workout... silver lining.
