With unique protocol and creativity, gyms across L.A. County are starting to reopen this week.
But even behind his face shield, fitness trainer Peet Sapsin’s enthusiasm was contagious.
A ringing boxing bell marked the end of the 30-second set of repetitive squat exercises known as half-burpees, and all five sweat-drenched trainees caught their breath at Saspin’s Inspire South Bay Fitness studio.The cubicles, which Sapsin affectionately calls “gainz pods,” have allowed him to feel comfortable reopening Inspire’s doors after many clients told him they didn’t want to work out while wearing masks.
Rimoin said potential exercisers should feel comfortable with their gym’s coronavirus protocol before returning. They should wear masks too, she said, even if it’s uncomfortable.
