[QUOTE="TestOneTwo, post: 178747, member: 40269"] I think it's a matter of common sense. As adults we should make decisions based on what WE believe is right based on everything we know and what we have experienced, not because what an authority tells us to do - particularly if the authorities have no actual clue yet and have mixed opinions themselves. Case in point TRT. How many of us had been told by our regular doctor that our T levels are fine or they put us on a terrible protocol? How many of us then took matters in our own hands and sought help elsewhere, even paying out of pocket because we were that sure that our doctor was wrong, even though we are no medical experts, I might add. We took control of our own lives. Still, common sense decisions shouldn't always be in favor of the feel good or fun stuff. Sometimes the right decision is the least pleasant one but many people struggle with the concept of delayed gratification even in their adulthood. The Corona situation is uncharted territory and we are really on our own. If you think it's a clever idea to go back the gym as soon as possible then it really is in your world. See, in mine it's a jaw droppingly bad decision which I can't even comprehend. In the end, who knows who's right? This would be one of the few examples where I'd prefer not to be right. Thankfully, there's still a little bit of freedom left in this country and people can do whatever they want. Just to underline this again though, every day of an empty gym = one day closer to their insolvency. While packed gyms are more dangerous, empty gyms are actually really bad news for your gym career too, with or without virus. Kinda catch 22. [/QUOTE]
