GYMS RE-OPEN TOMORROW! | SHOULD YOU GO? – ScottHermanFitness

by YouTube Team

Florida is really pushing to open our economy back up, but is it too early for gyms? Going to the grocery store or out to eat is one thing. But going to a gym where you are quite literally required to touch everything (with or without gloves), even with a limited amount of people could be a recipe for disaster. It only takes one person who is infected to spread the virus.

I think it would be super interesting to hear what all of you have to say about this. I am on the fence personally. I see all the dangers on one side, but I also see a failing economy that needs some stability. Also, if gyms do not re-open soon more and more will go out of business forever and there will be NO GYMS to go to once the economy goes back to normal.

The Bowflex and Elliptical is all I need at home for a gym. I can get all my weight lifting and cardio done for a fraction of the cost and not risk catching covid.

Since you posted this one month ago, cases in Florida went from 45,588 to 85,926 as of 11pm. Thats a 40,338 difference in 1 month. Florida had a 3000 new cases in 1 day today. Gyms in Florida are petri dish with the A.C. circulating that petri dish.

those who need to go to the gym , JUST FUCKING GO..Almost all of the the ones who who push the fact of people falling sick in the gym are the ones who are nothing but lazy and fat poop making machines who just sit, eat and generate poop all day so stop giving them a patient hearing. While you are at the gym keep a distance ,maintain good hygiene practices ,get your workout done and get the fuck out.. Covid 19 is asymptomatic and It takes one person to spread the virus even without his knowledge but again the chances of anything spreading or catching is less likely if you maintain social distancing..and dont be the IDIOT that puts the mask on while lifting weights as thats gonna create other problems..

I may go to the gym at 7am in the morning while there is no one.
Gonna use the sanitizer after every exercise.
Gonna wear the mask.
And gonna use a antiseptic liquid spray bottle on the equipment before use.

I appreciate your honesty Scott. I honestly believe if I did not see this video I would’ve started going back to the gym on Monday. Not a good idea…

I used to go to the gym at least three times a week when it was open and even would schedule things around making sure I got my workout in. However, I have grown to like the chilling out I have done the last several months and have not intentions of going back to the gym.

Checked out the local Planet Fitness, yesterday. Disappointed they do not REQUIRE masks. One infected person huffing and puffing can infect a lot of other people. Why does this have to be a political issue?

I go to my gym sans-muzzle six days a week. Not afraid of the social engineering scam on any level. Pathetic how people are so easily whipped into a fear frenzy by the gov media.

Damn reading through the comment section & seeing Americans buying into this new normal, is sad.After watching 1.3million people in Germany go out in the streets, peacefully protesting against this Plandemic gave me hope, that one day others will follow suit.But as for America its a sad sad situation.

I gained a little weight and didn't really think about my diet and gained 10 lbs. I'm back at it again with my diet, but my gym doesn't enforce masks and if you don't want to wear a mask then you don't need to. So I try to workout at home but its not as fun

I've been working out with dumbells for the past 6 months and its getting old. I feel like I'm gaining fat and no muscle. Before the gyms closed I was 6'1" 192 pounds with a bench pr of 250. I'm now 205 and have only been doing pushups for my chest. I want to go back so bad but its dangerous

I survived covid and it's no joke. It takes its toll when you go threw it. But I'm doing better now though and I hope for the many others they do well. This may be a risk but fuck…I have to.

Hadn't seen this video before. That type of N95 mask you have is not suitable for a pandemic like this because it has an exhalation valve. When you breathe out, that plastic piece in the front opens and lets all your breath escape unfiltered. When you inhale, it closes and the air must pass through the rest of the mask so it gets filtered. The main point of masking in public is to contain your own respiratory droplets and aerosols since you may be unknowingly infected, so a mask that basically lets all that escape when you breathe out is defeating the purpose. If you have a bunch of masks with a valve like that, you might be able to glue the valve shut or cover the opening inside the mask with tape and still use them.

Well, it's pretty obvious now that the US reopened too soon after an ineffective halfway lockdown. We're doing the worst COVID-wise among developed nations, and among the worst economically among developed nations. I absolutely can't wait for all this to be over. https://www.bloomberg.com/graphics/covid-resilience-ranking/

Germ theory is a hoax to make you scared of an "invisible enemy". In the middle ages the same tactic was used on the masses although they were more spiritually inclined back then so they used "ghosts" instead. If "airborne viruses" really existed our species would have died out thousands of years ago. Stop living in fear, take off your mask, stop sanitising your hands every 5 minutes and take responsibility for your health. If you think getting poison injected into you is going to save you from something that doesn't exist then you deserve whatever that poison is going to do to you.
