As this pandemic seems to never end, I was thinking how gyms are handling this crisis. Personally, I belong to LA Fitness a gym membership chain throughout the states. At the beginning of the pandemic they closed right away and gave members the ability to freeze their accounts. After COVID-19 kept spreading, closing down most of the country, LA Fitness gave the members the option to have a free month now, or have a free membership for the summer for one of their family members. I thought this was a good move by the gym. However, I was wondering how this Pandemic could affect gym memberships. Gyms are by definition pretty gross places. With multiple members in the locker room sweating, and defiantly not 6 feet away from each other, this is a heaven for diseases and germs. I wonder if the country and gyms open up soon, how will the gym try to combat this? I think gyms around the country will suffer and end up dropping the prices for memberships. I know of some gyms that are suffering so bad, they are offering free memberships to people to stick around and help clean the gyms after closing. I just hope if they do decide this, gyms won\u2019t suffer too much, and I hope thy drop the price for my membership.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
