    Covid

    If this topic has been raised mods, kindly transfer it.

    Are the gyms in your area open? Full operation? You're allowed to spar, mitts and any exercise that you have to be close? Almost all of the gyms where I'm from are closed, plenty have closed down.

    Gyms are open but limited hours. I have to wear a face mask the entire time I'm there which is hell because when I'm working the bags and start sweating I feel like I'm waterboarding myself. Haven't officially heard anything about sparring or doing an exercise with a partner but given that we're not supposed to lift with a spotter makes me think sparring is off the table. I think the general brainwave in my area has been "When the gyms reopen everyone's going to rush back in so I'm going to be smart and wait" and I'm the only one that came back right away so I got the whole gym to myself.

      Depends on area. In some area yes, some areas no. Some private gyms yes, some public gyms no.

            The latest bit of news to come through the pipeline is ******. Quick rundown: the boxing club rents space in this gym and the gym owners make the rules. The gym has stated that workout classes are allowed but group workouts are not. So stuff like zumba and cycling can resume but if coach wanted to work mitts with 2 of our guys, that's not allowed. What constitutes a workout class is that it has to be open to the public and has to have a set schedule which doesn't mesh well with the coach's own schedule or the other club members.

                Hopefully things can be better for you before the end of the year.
