Hi,

how do you train?
All gyms are closed... I execute HIIT (CrossFit variant) 4 times per week in office after job (burpees, squats, push-ups...). I can do just bodyweight workout in the office. I lost 6kgs in 7 weeks.

I am thinking of buying some kettlebells and dumbbells/barbell, maybe also some bands.

How is with gyms? When they will reopen gyms?

Great job on the lost weight.

Gym reopenings are State by state.

MUCH discussion on various boards about buying equipment. Widespread shortages, price gouging, even normal shipping costs for iron can be discouraging.

Occasional links and leads from members here and there may be worth investigating

My sister cuts hair and apparently they are now open for business. Gyms are suppose to open 7/1.

I work out at home with powerblock dumbbells and an adjustable bench. I Do a lot more jogging/walking lately too. That’s about it.

Gym’s here aren’t opening anytime soon.

We missed the first round of gym openings here in Fla. They made it sound like they were going to open then didn't :mad:

I've been working out at the house but I have enough to do what I need to. There are a few guys here with some decent home gyms.

Ohio hasn’t said when yet. I work in ND and they just opened those gyms. I have a nice set up in my basement with squat rack, benches, hundreds of pounds weights, DBs, cable machine and a bunch of other shit. So I’ve been fortunate. Wife and I have been in contest prep since mid January. We stayed at it I guess it’s good because it gave us something to do. And we look nice naked.

Rumor has it that shows in the state have been given guidance that August might be good with certain restrictions. So we are gonna keep at it.

I havent trained since Jan 6. Ive been working 7 12s since then. In a way, Im kinda glad my gym is closed down, so I can get a chance to heal some nagging injuries that have been bothering me, like tennis elbow, and my lower back. I feel like Im great and ready to train again, but I dont see gyms in my area opening up till the fall.

I dont know how gyms in some states are opening up, and trying to maintain social distancing. Im not going to wear a mask in the gym to workout, or wait in line outside to get in the gym because they have to limit the capacity. Ill just wait for the vaccine.
