My gym is open. Ironically, as Texas is pretty infested, as they tell it. Masks are technically mandatory, with a fine of up to $250, if repeated after a warning. As far as I can tell, that's not being enforced, really. Businesses get fined 500$ per infraction; but, in my gym, they have a sign up saying, "Masks are mandatory; no exceptions". When you walk in, literally 1-3 people out of 150 are wearing masks.

In any case, you don't really need a gym to lose weight. It helps for building mass, but going on walks and managing your calorie intake will do far more for your weight loss.

G'luck

Thanks for posting. I am wondering the same thing. I can afford a local gym membership in a gym about a mile from my home but can't afford gym equipment. Even if I could afford equipment, I live in one rented room and would have no place to put it. Gym membership would work for me but the gyms around here in southern California are all closed indefinitely. I eat carefully and moderately but I am overweight and get comments and weight lectures from various people all the time.

I lift weights at home. really good weightlifting set up at home! I watch movies at the same time I am lifting weights. that way I get two things done at the same time. Does anyone watch the pink panther movies? they are really funny!!!! 😺

you could lift weights at home as I do. you can go running outside too. how much weight are you gaining???? 😺

@NeloAngelo why no weights at home??? you should get some. running outside is fun. why don't you like running outside??? 😺

@trackboy running outside means you're constantly starting and stopping, looking out for traffic/pedestrians, hope it doesn't rain. at a treadmill i can just get into the rhythm shut off my brain for a while and just listen to full comedy shows on my earphones.

@NeloAngelo you could go running on a trail in the woods. go running along a long road in the countryside. go running around the block. 😺

actually ditch the Gym and get your own Equipment. you'll save more then paying options at the Gym.

I like your use of ╥﹏╥ to symbolise a gym. Where did you get the ╥ from? My keyboard hasn't got Greek letters on it.

I was planning on joining a local gym about a mile from my home. But it's closed.
