Gyms are opening in LA
 

Did you guys see the Gold's Gym announcement that they are opening up on 28th of December?

Are all the gyms opening or Gold's Gym is the only one?

I heard things should get worse soon with the lockdown, idk how they are going to operate.

Fucking stupid.

Not a chance.

lol they are on crack

I have zero sympathy for anyone that goes anywhere near a gym just now.



And save me the "mental health" chat...

Gyms improve your health, they should be open. Disease loves to ravage people in poor health.

Golds has a lot of space. Easy to keep distance.

The thing is you have to use a mask. Imagine doing a deadlift with 220-400 pounds on you and you just black out, or same with squats. It's very easy to black out since mask won't let you breathe or get enough oxygen.

Working out improves your health. People can workout at home or at a park at the beach, etc. :pimp

10 people allowed in entire gym should be fine and only 1 hour limit.

Right? I see people packed in Target and Walmart..you can go there but you can't go to a fucking gym?

Gyms in AZ are open. They were closed at one point for a month or so.

I share this point of view RyuLion.

I've counted this year among the people I know 50 people that got contaminated... and I have only 1 friend that diead (last week RIP :/) and he was in very average health condition.
In the others that survived Covid19, most of them are carefull with their health...
I'm not a scientist or an expert, but indeed it seems like anything that can boost your immune system should be a good thing, and exercising in a Gym is part of them.

Anyway, I think we've all noticed a few flaws in the decisions taken by our governments lately :pimp

as long as distancing, masks and cleaning is maintained, there should be no problem...


a limit to those in the gym and the equipment will need moving further away than usual also, but it´s all possible.


We´ve got a very clean area here on the Orihuela costa, it´s all because we, the public kept to the rules and continue to stay distant, respect one another and always wear masks and clean with gels and cleaner products, not bleach lol

Bullshit.

agreed, before COVID19, most athletes had started using masks to slow down the breathing, sportsmen like footballers and many other athletes working out in the gym :thumbsup

Time to get rid of that RONA QUARANTINE BELLY

and saving money... :stoned

Which place has the best girls to ogle ?? That is the question.

You've probably never set foot in a gym in your life.
Are you lifting and sweating and breathing all over people at a Target?

Working out hard without proper oxygen is very dangerous. You can black out for sure.

This is 80% - 90% the reason to go to a gym :1orglaugh

i cunt a4d2 open a gym in LA... :(

Perfect for injuries :1orglaugh

Just do a different workout routine that suits the circumstances.
Breathing thru a mask gives you a better workout when breathing is more difficult. The percentage of oxygen is the same either way.

You've clearly never been to a Target or Wal-Mart. :winkwink:

This^^^

Know what’s funny too? I have family from india coming to my xmas party tonight. They probably have a new strain of covid. No fucks given. If I get and die? I get it and die. People are being nuts over the flu. Pussies

Lockdown obviously hasn't worked, so why not?

I have a full gym in my house so I don't have to wear a mask..but this should confuse you:

Doctor runs 22 miles with face mask to prove they don't impair oxygen levels

Hmm, liberal doctor wrong or onehung right?

Then why are you comparing gyms to Walmart? Because you don't know what the fuck you're talking about, that's why.

he wasn´t, sly mentioned walmart...

I think Sly meant, the amount of people using masks in walmart, running around shopping with masks on, he was being amusing :1orglaugh :thumbsup



regarding the masks for training, they are meant to work well though, as I showed you with the link above in my last post :thumbsup

He's a moron. He's wearing some crap fabric mask with big gaps at the top to let in air. It probably doesn't restrict his air that bad but it's not blocking or filtering shit either. Completely pointless. The only masks that actually do anything are the N95 (rare) or the surgical mask when properly fitted tight around the nose (which nobody does).

I watched the video in that story and they said fleece actually INCREASES the quantity of droplets. It makes smaller droplets. Small droplets float more and thus it actually increases spread. Garbage masks are actually doing more harm than good.

No not all gyms are opening. The current state pandemic regulation says that gyms can operate outdoors. Chains like Gold's and Equinox (the two that I've heard of) have began opening outdoor spaces at locations where they could get the space.

Cool. I like it

To watch the girls exercising, frankly, I prefer to frequent the gogo bars while wearing a mask, of course ... :stoned

In OC Golds doesn't exist anymore....they were taken over by LA Fitness which is shut down. 24 Hr is shut down here also, they filed BK but were still operating and now totally shut down. We were fine when they allowed OC to operate gyms, 20% capacity and masks mandatory.

People say working out at home is fine but many people including the elderly rely on the gym or their activity. I went everyday or every other day to improve my health and maintain....since the shit got shut down I've been working out at home and has 2 injuries since (damn, first time on this board was in my 20s now 40s)

Working out at the gym is a healthy lifestyle for many in this area, and naturally great for the immune system. Shit is draconian when so many were fine social distancing and masking up....

Working out at home just sucks. And I don't know about in the US but try getting home gym equipment now in the UK - what isn't out of stock is sky high in price.

I had a Concept 2 rowing machine at home that I sold just before the pandemic because the gym has brand new ones so I didn't need mine. That worked out well for me.....

Where I live in Northern California we have restaurants that are open and people are eating inside. They think they are sneaky and cover up the windows as if no one will know.

This has become a completley political issue for businesses.
