Topic | Has anyone else here gone to a gym recently? |

I have control over whether I wipe down surfaces and maintain sanitary practices and stop every fifteen minutes to go wash my hands. And I have control over the fact that I am otherwise not putting myself or anyone else at risk, and consequently further spreading the virus....and consequently, I have control over whether or not I decide that the restrictions that are in place are too confining and therefore I need to take my energy elsewhere. No shade on you, but you can't control whether you maintain social distancing as long as others exist. Like, you don't need to be a buffoon, you just need some other buffoon to come too close to you while you're in the middle of an exercise and can't quickly back off to a safe distance. Or maybe the workout itself is safe but you encounter someone who doesn't give you space as you're entering/exiting. Or maybe you all maintain literally six feet of distance but someone's a superspreader and you catch it at eight feet. Basically I think you put too much trust in other people if you expect all your fellow gym-goers not to be buffoons. --- another place and time, without a great divide, and we could be flying deadly high ...
