Same thing happened here in Nashville. Mayor doing something different, keeping things closed while proposing a 32% increase in property taxes, so he can not have to furlough any government employees while way more people are unemployed due to the closures. A reopening started this week, but it's phased and can go backwards if the mayor is feeling like a pussy... which seems to be all the time.

If they can open stores here at 50%, hair salons & churches they should allow a limited number of people in the gym.

My gym opened about two weeks ago and I still haven’t gone back. Been using thisntime to recover from a few long term injuries.
Giving my joints and tendons a little break for awhile.
I shall return, fresh and ready to go.

You have my full support brother...lol.

I’m just waiting to go to physical therapy for degenerative disc disease in my lower spine. Was supposed to start PT a couple months ago but apparently my back is not essential to fighting corona virus so my appointments got postponed until mid June and I don’t wanna go back into the gym and mess my back up even more.
So, this little break has been good for my 50ish body and the plan is to go back to the gym asap.
I’m just wondering what kind of training I can still do that doesn’t require much strain on my lower back. Not much...ugh.
I’ll be doing water aerobics with the senior citizens soon enough.

I understand the rest my man, but I've done my share of laying in a bed not sure if I would be able to ever workout again. I'm a liver transplant survivor & had to learn to walk again after months in bed due to infection. That was 20016 & in 2017 I contracted sepsis from my roommate at the medical rehab without knowing it it hit me & I was in a 7 day medically induced coma & back in rehab again after the hospital....so time is precious to me for sure.

So I'm ready to have at it! 56yrs old here!

Yup mines been closed since March 22nd. Really sucks cause the gyms are going to be the last things to open for many of us. I wish trump would over rule everyone and just open it all back up. Imagine if he did that............

People are starting to get pissed off. Judges have started overturning lockdown orders already (Oregon surprises me), and the numbers used to justify lockdowns are nebulous at best. In my opinion, they should have never happened. We aren't going to escape it, and we're all going to have to take our lumps sooner or later. It's just at that point, how many businesses and lives will have been destroyed... and for what?

Unofficially yes! We maintained all our training clients and loyal members. We did not allow our month to month or sporadic clients in the gym. Officially we were closed, wink wink

Good lookin’ pics my brother.
I’m not saying I don’t appreciate every moment I have to go to the gym. My problem is not knowing how to slow down enough to heal properly. I’m OCD real bad about training. To the point I’m creating new injuries beyond what I’m already dealing with.
What I need to do is drastically change up my style of working out. I need to focus more on cardio and calisthenics and less on mass and strength. I still have the mass and strength but my frame is wearing out from all the years of weightlifting and heavy lifting in combat boots.
I spent a year bedridden due to liver failure, had my left arm surgically amputated and then sewn back on, and bled to death in the ICU at the VA hospital just a year and a half ago. I’m 100% disabled and legally housebound for life.
My doc told me most of my back problems are because my upper body weighs so much it’s crushing my spine and causing me peripheral neuropathy to the point I can’t feeel my left hand anymore.
He also told me that all of my labs are perfect except that my body mass is so great it’s caused my A1-C to be just below diabetic threshold.
So, I do appreciate every moment at the gym but I also appreciate my overall physical well-being a bit more.
I’m seeing less gym time and more outdoor time focusing on endurance and longevity in my near future.
And I say have at it too my brother. If you can keep it up at the gym then I say keep keeping on!!!
