I have a decent home gym set up like a lot of y’all, half rack with the pull-up bars & adjustable dumbbells

Only problem is I woke up with a bad stiff neck about a week ago, thing still hasn’t gotten much better. Super tight from the upper back to neck. Hoping I just need a few more days.

Sucks missing out on these corona gainz

kinda funny people been going to the gym with colds and flu for years. never cleaned equipment before use. barely after. all I saw today were people wiping down machines

 

[Beruseruku Desu]

Sometimes I gotta use the lb plates instead of the kilos to boost my ego up

I usually wipe down equipment after I'm done using it but it just whatever part my hands touch or I sweat on.
Grabbed a dumbbell to do goblet squats today and whipped down the entire thing before and after.

I'm gonna have to switch my routine to mornings since nobody goes then and work with just 1-2 pieces of equipment in isolation.
Bout to be that guy that hogs the squat rack for my entire workout....

People keep telling me "I read the gym is one of the worst places if you wanna avoid COVID" and I'm like yeah a full gym. My gym been like 15 people max and everyone so spread apart since it's so empty. Probably more distance between each person at my gym than most people who still gotta go to work

 

[Beruseruku Desu]

Yup exactly what I was thinking.

I been reading multiple articles and health professionals been saying it’s okay to go to the gym but just take extra caution with wiping down stuff. They said stay away from any classes like yoga or cycling. Anything that involves close quarters.

 

[Barbados Slim]

I read that the gym is one of the worst places also which does make sense, but if everyone is avoiding it then maybe it becomes safe for those still going.
If everyone ignored that then I think it would be the most dangerous.
The usual suspects not wiping down equipment, people breathing heavy, bad ventilation, etc.
