[QUOTE="DragonBits, post: 178743, member: 18023"] [I]Amusing that some say the government is ignoring risk to jazz the economy, while others are saying the gov is over reacting and now we need to get back to normal. But that's normal life.[/I] To me, it's obvious the gym is higher risk than grocery stores. 1) When we work out, we exert ourselves as much as possible, causing more forceful breathing thus expelling more virus. Especially true of cardio. There are even examples of this in choir groups where a very high percentage of members got infected. 2) More important, when I go to the store I spend 10-40 minutes, when I go to the gym, typically I spend 60-120 minutes. Longer time = more exposure. And many go to the gym more often than a grocery store. And I don't like wearing a mask, not going to do it with cardio which I can do outside in any case, and I will likely only wear a mask weightlifting if it is required. I will go back to the gym, while I think it's higher risk, I don't think it's extremely igher and I am OK with that. I will likely avoid the locker room / hot sauna. Lucky it's spring/summer time, in the past I typically go to the gym less often and spend more time working / time exercising outside (walks, biking, hiking, etc), so the weather works in my favor in regards to this. I wonder if they will do a temp check at the door? [/QUOTE]
