Anyone worried if Corona virus keeps spreading the gyms will shut down?

I hate that about the gym, man.
But I'm glad to see somebody with some equipment at home. :-)
 
Welp.. That's it. All gyms in New York State are shutting down indefinitely starting tonight. I just ran to the sporting goods store and bought some resistance bands. Some other dude was doing the same thing. Never thought it would come to this.
 
This is interesting regarding the effectiveness of lockdown in efforts to flatten the curve in Italy...

New research on the Italy outbreak shows the impact of shutting down fast. The coronavirus in Italy was first identified in a province called Lodi, which shut down February 23 (green in the chart below). Another province, Bergamo, started with fewer cases but did not shut down until March 8. The number of cases in Bergamo has since far exceeded the number in Lodi (Invalid Link Removed).

Clearly, this was merely just an effort to influence the upcoming election here in the US! :ROFLMAO:
 
Governor just announced all Maryland gyms to shut down at 5pm today (along with movies, restaurants, etc.) Still trying to figure out if the small gym in this apartment building can stay open... it's not half bad.

No more free pizza at PF. Gotta pay for it now.
 
In this apartment building, all I ever see in the gym are the same 10 people and no more than any 5 at one time. Not like a public gym with 50 people at a time working out from several hundred in membership.

Seems like no more risk than walking in the hallway or being in the elevator with the same people in the same building. Short of total self isolation in your own apartment, is this not a very small risk in line with state recommendations (*gathering's less than 50 people, social distancing, wiping equipment, etc). ????

I’d pay 10 000$ RIGHT NOW to be in your shoes and have a gym in my appartment building and I’d greatly take that "risk".
 
Where you at? I have a home gym with an extra bedroom.
Make the check out to (my best friends call me Ca$h). :P

Uk just announced that people should work from home and avoid social contact. Prime minster has stated people shouldn’t go to cinemas, pubs, restaurants etc.

hasn’t said not to go to the gym and hasn’t said for any business to close (just that people shouldn’t attend 🙄)

as a gym owner I can work out myself no problem but my business is fucked if all my members cancel because they decide not to attend for the next 3 months.....
 
im just curious... has anyone seen footage of dead bodies? funeral processions? grieving families? body bags?

maybe this is what all those coffins were for stock piled in Texas~

I've got almost 700lbs of plates and a squat rack in my backyard. No virus will keep me from lifting. Unless of course I catch it lmfaoo Just easier to not worry about prepping for a competition. I'll do a July meet instead

Yes, anyone with asthma should certainly be very cautious. There was a 20 something year old girl on the local news today stating that it was hard for her to breath, and she has no history of lung disease. Cases in my state quadrupled in 24 hrs, yet my hospital is still all negatives- that will change any day. I also attended a meeting today at work (every four hr requirement to discuss status and placement of hospital COVID rule outs) and was informed about two people in the nearby area that significantly and dangerously breached the rules of their self quarantine within 24 hrs. People simply can’t be trusted..

That graphic you posted of testing results in S. Korea is quite telling...nice find!



That’s what I think about quite often through this, and at the time it felt like a was shaving off part of my identity and freedom. As healthcare workers, we are fighting a war- it’s just viral rather than physical, and we are right at the forefront because someone has to do it. While I think veterans are worthy of all the glory, recognition, and benefits they deserve, I think healthcare workers at the hands-on patient care level aren’t given any reciprocation or recognition for putting ourselves at great risk. If we are lucky, they will give us a free lunch in the cafeteria when the dust settles, and then do everything they can to keep us from getting yearly raises.

If things get real bad (not unlikely for RT), all relevant personnel will be mandated to show up to work extensive hours unless physically proven unfit to do so- and/or are quarantined themselves. They will send hospital security or involve local police to remove me from my house if I don’t respond to being called in during a state of emergency. We are already stretched to our limit and additional hours have already been asked of us within the past two days. Today I worked 14 hrs instead of 12.5. All hospital staff has already been exhausted by this.

your pay is better though....when I joined military I was getting less than $500 a month. I 100% support 1st responders and health care workers who put themselves in harms way every day...much respect to you @Ricky10!!!

All gyms, restruants, bars and casinos close today at 8pm till further notice. restruants can do takeout and deliver still and casinos will keep a small section open with every other slot machine running.

I don't mind a stockpile of caskets. Not a concern until someone tries to fill them....

As of now in US, peanut butter kills more people (peanut allergies roughly 150 per year). It's the trajectory that is causing concern, and the Italian scenario if things get out of control.

Thanks @Ricky10 for the front line updates!!
 
Well the titled to this thread I created so long back has occurred in my home state of Ohio-gyms have been ordered closed. Just glad I am not cycling now as it would be a waist. Did manage to pick myself up like new adjustable Bowflex dumbells that go up to 190 pounds and a like new Bowflex adjustable bench all for only $400 off of Facebook! Already have a Nordicktrack incline trainer that Inclines to 40 percent for cardio so I am all set! I am able to walk on it at just 1.5 miles per hour at a 23 percent incline for just 20 minutes and burn 200 calories. Can’t imagine when I work up to 40 percent!
 
There better be massive deals on supplements soon or else nobody will be buying. At least not me. Not in these times. Not with gyms being closed. Supplements are no longer a priority, at least not to me.

Thank you, it’s nice to be appreciated!

Sorry if I come off a bit snappy in some of my comments and I don’t mean to disrespect anyone’s perspective. The impact of all this on my own personal life combined with the much more stressful situation at work can feel quite overwhelming. I am a charge therapist, so yesterday I was literally responsible for educating our staff on current protocols, and tracking all the rule out Covid cases throughout the hospital- RT management was not there. This is all on top of taking care of our routine patients which has picked up significantly anyway.

I am going to miss the gym just as much as any of you, and it sucks. However, it doesn’t make much sense to have large scale actions in place if we don’t also have the unfortunate restrictions that scale back on unnecessary person to person exposure.

Again, the idea of just letting this run it’s own course is rather appealing to me, but it would obviously lead to more deaths than we would be willing to accept. I am sure we all have loved ones in our lives that fit into the high risk categories of developing life threatening illness. Unfortunately, it has to be somewhat of an all or nothing approach to give everyone the best chance of getting through this. Everyone has to do their part and take personal responsibility because this is the path we are on whether we agree with it or not.

Pre-workouts will definitely take a big hit, it would be foolish not to run sales on those!
 
Colorado is shut down. No gyms, restaurants, casino or anything really. Time to gtfo of the city before the mob mentality takes hold. Stay vigilant and aware gentlemen. The people are what worry me most about this shite.
 
I can't imagine what it's going to look like when my company opens our doors again.
A lot of angry customers with short fuses; worse than ever. 2 weeks without their tech support...

I've been threatened several times before and that was without a pandemic looming.
People are crazy; selfish; easily angered, and unreasonable. We've seen it with the over-shopping.

Dude is that epi andro stuff really good? It’s so Crazy how the andros are such a craze now because I feel like when they were first around like 2006 advanced muscle science I think brought them, they were looked at as crap. And i specifically remember Epi-Andro bring out in the reformulated mastersdrol which had superdrol originally and then masterdrol v2 came out in Xplo Caps and it said it had 100mg of epiandrosterone per cap. Just wondering why all a sudden they are so big? Is it because all the strong stuff was gone? Or were these andros maybe always decent but they never had the right dose or delivery system, like the liposomal stuff now. Thanks!!

I tried Andros way back when Primordial Performance put them out ..... Wayyy back when. ... And I honestly didn't think a lot of them, so I really haven't messed with them much since.
But a couple of things:
1) Back then, not as much was understood about proper dosing.
and..
2) They were oral.

I've used LOTS of compounds over the years... Legal, gray market, and "other" (LOL).
And this Stanogen TD Epiandro from Apex Alchemy has made me extremely happy.
Energy, drive, focus, libido, strength......

It is not like the oral Andros I tried back in the day, or like an Oral Andro product I purchased not too long ago from another reputable company.

I'd recommend this for ANYONE.

in the case of epiandrosterone… it took a min for people to push the limits with it. and really only did that happen because of the target hormone DHT. after the closer 1 step pro hormones were gone this was next in line. at about 1 g a day this stuff starts to really shine.. @ 1500mgs per day its pretty awesome.

400mg of TD Stanogen has me rocking pretty good! :-)
 
Gym just closed tonite for 2 weeks+ (Cue my depression) and I’m at a restaurant bar about to have a steak and they close for the foreseeable future at midnight....(I’m on the east coast)
 
Got a pull-up bar adjustable Db set and heavy resistance band. My suggestion is multiple workouts and lots of pushups / pull-ups /lunges and body weight squats

Volume is everything when you don’t have much
