Was it glorious?!?!

And was the gym surprisingly not packed? Or was I totally wrong, haha.

FINALLY!!!
… although, I must say I’m quite jealous :stuck_out_tongue_closed_eyes:

20 people in the gym, it was dead.

Its a pincode access 24 hour gym and they have an app for occupancy at each branch. This one is restricted to 100 at any time as part of covid restrictions and i didnt see it get higher than 40 all day, you were spot on.

It was glorious, though I had to work hard to keep from getting carried away. I planned a light intro week that is going to be tough to stick to.

There’s a gym close to my place, but my parents won’t let me go bc they’re afraid of COVID

Have you had an antibody test done, so you know whether youve already had it yet?

I most definitely haven’t given that I haven’t even had a minor cold for nearly 2years now

That doesn’t mean you haven’t had it. A lot of people are completely asymptomatic. I know a few people who had not even the sniffles but have positive antibody results.

I had no covid symptoms but antibodies through the roof.

Good point- although that probably wouldn’t do much to get my mom to agree :sweat_smile:

Anyways, I’ll be watching your gains and probably be bothering you quite a bit when I finally get back in the spring :joy::blush:

Get flexed on lel

Is it “the gym”, because at my branch they’re also limiting opening times, which is a pain.

That’s a really curious thing to me, if it’s 24/7 and coded, what does limiting opening times do apart from force the same volume of people to train in a less spread out manner?

I believe, from reading the emails, that they’re now planning to be staffed at all times. Presumably a cleaning issue (although there were always cleaners there through the night pre-CoVid anyway).
