Johannesburg - Fitness fanatics could return to gyms across the country as early as next week.
“Planet Fitness has to date not been given any concrete indication by government as to when we can open but are pushing hard to get government to agree to allow us to open during Advanced Level 3 or at least by the beginning of July.” The gym says they are following strict safety and social distancing protocols to ensure all members are safe when they return.
“Club size must be taken into account and cannot be a one size fits all approach. We have also taken additional measures by ensuring that members tag themselves into the club.” “Sauna’s will not be open, however, we will allow the pools to be open with strict guidelines to access.” “One life lost is one too many, but we know that we are one of the safest places to visit.” Virgin Active say they too are ready to reopen all of their branches across the country. “Virgin Active has engaged government but do not as yet have an opening date.
Virgin Active says their focus has been on keeping the member experience at the centre of all their changes.
