Potential For Gym Closures

[Tech]

What are people's views on what they are going to do to continue training or at least maintain their gains if they close all gyms for an extended period?

I am buying these as I plan to move later in year and set-up home gym.

Amazon has loads of weights and bars

Just prime what you need in.

Has this actually been discussed or are we just speculating?

I’d have to train in my mates garage I suppose, but he doesn’t have much kit. I could squat and deadlift and barbell row and shrug and use dumbbells for everything else so I’d make a do

Other European countries have done this so likely its only a matter of time before it happens here

Got a squat rack numerous different bars and acquired a bench last week so I’m alright.

Also plenty of spare ale [emoji481][emoji481]

Just need to order a bag/bracket

Got a dip/chin/ab station so weighted chins, dips, push ups, and, skipping, running and squatting with the Mrs on my back for reps will do

Our place aren’t closing, they’ve said they’ll blag staying open. If they don’t i won’t train and I won’t give a single fuck either.

I can’t see the government forcing anywhere to close against their will due to the liability issue, if the business then folds as a result obviously.

I reckon we’re doing the right thing.

Let nature take its course and get on with it. Those who die can die. Not remotely arsed about a bunch of useless old cunts croaking it. If I croak it then I will savour the sweet embrace of death.

My guy

Agree 100%. Especially the death part. What will be will be

 

[Proteinbrah]

Should be closed already

Agreed, we probably needed a good purge

 

[Mr mac]

It does concern me. I’m down to my last 4 back machines in the garage. Can’t train like a pro like that. Worlds gone mad

Increase food and gear to moronic levels. No need for gym then, can grow sitting in the boozer

I don’t see them forcing gyms to close whilst all the kids are still going to school (germ/illness hotbeds) and the majority of adults are still going to work

And I don’t see how they can shut the schools anytime soon as that means adults will stay home to look after them, therefore businesses will struggle, people won’t be getting paid so spending less. All adds up to an even bigger hit on the economy

Everyone needs to man the fuck up and get on with it. If a flu can finish u off your basically fucked anyway so who gives a fuck. Just let it play out as nature intended
