Gyms are fetid petri dishes at the BEST of times. You ever walk by one with the door open, or a Hot Yoga studio right after a class? 🤢

Obesity is a risk factor for Covid-19. Officials need to consider that when they are restricting preventive healthcare when they close gyms or prohibit exercise outside (hasn't happened yet in US but has elsewhere).Quarantine weight gain and atrophy will end up killing people too

This is how the world works. It’s unsafe. If you want to be principled and proportionate about removing threats start from fast food, alcohol and tobacco shops.

If you don't want to go. Don't go.

Your 'experts' haha.

Reminds me of when that road was under construction for a year. I could curse the predicament or find another route...Fitness: One of the many socially constructed obstacles in a year chock full of them. Take. A. Walk. Outside.

Yep. Safest to stay at home, unfortunately.

The gym isn’t for pansies. I lick the barbell erotically each and every time I go, just to prove how tough I am.

Only BLM protests keep you safe

The only way to stop the virus is to stop breathing. Come on humanity, i know you can do it. Try it for 24 hours and if you dont like it then we will try something new

Nothing will ever be enough. That’s the point. In the meantime let’s keep destroying our society so .0001% don’t die.

I workout at home.

Placebo..

I'm waiting 6 more months for a vaccine. It's not worth the risk. I can walk outside and do resistance bands at home to keep in shape until then.

All bull crap

but 40 person high school classes with a 68 year old teacher or 300 person dorms with 2 ppl to a room are just fine. according to the washingtonpost and the open schoool crowd.

Have there been outbreaks and super spreader events at gyms? no? then stop spreading propaganda bs. and to the rest of you controlling jerks out there, no I won’t stay home as long as there’s no order. *You* stay home.

The gym that I go to appears to be very fanatical about cleaning.

If you are too fragile to venture out of your house, by all means, stay home.

I’ve been going to my gym every day since June 15. I’m not sick and no one who goes there has gotten sick.

Yet here in monroe county Ny no one has gotten sick from going to the gym. Please at least try and act like you are checking facts and just not repeating propaganda

“Meticulous cleaning”...”upgraded air filtration systems”... A.K.A... “Put out more Lysol wipes”...”replace air filter more than once a year”... Good luck with that... 😏🦠😷

I know something that is enough to keep you safe! Stay the f*%k home. This is a once in a lifetime pandemic. Americans have proven themselves incapable of handling it as such

But it is enough to sucker stupid people into putting themselves and all of society at risk for entertainment

nice
