With the hiatus that my colleges are taking, I've been able to workout everyday. Today was an exception. I spoke with a nurse friend of mine who told me not to go to the gym because of the virus. She convinced me of the danger.

Not sure what I’m gonna do/can do. Normally I work out 5 days a week and do different cardio exercises (swimming, biking, elliptical) but with the gym closed, I have no idea what I’m gonna do.

Sprints and running around ya local park areas no good?

Stayed out of the gym again today per advice from family and friends. I don't know though if I can continue to do so.

Have an ankle issue, hence the low impact cardio routine.

I have a stationary bike and work out bench in my basement so that is working for me.

Per county emergency declaration, gyms are ordered to close. So, during that tenure I'll be jogging.

I work out seven days a week. It is ultra-important to me. My wife and I do most of our cardio at a pool in a retirement development very near us. It closed last week. We also belong to a Fitness for $10 very near us, and I was doing half my cardio running, half on recumbent bike, plus weights. It closed yesterday. I ordered a recumbent bike from Amazon but it won't arrive until next Friday. So, I'm stuck with running, exclusively, for cardio. I'm old, and I have back and hamstring issues. It hurts.

As for resistance training: I have a set of springs, and I'm rigging stuff in my garage that will let me do a variety of reasonable approximations of weight training. It'll do.

I've done absolutely nothing! I do elliptical twice a week, bike once a week, stairmaster once a week, and swimming once a week (total of 5 days per week). With the gym being closed, and some limitations, I've done nothing. Trying to go on a bike ride next week with some guys from the gym. Hopefully it reopens soon! Getting tired of just sitting around and watching my belly grown.

With the gyms closed, I've been jogging. I tried to order a set of dumbbells, but all of the outlets are out of them.

Update: My recumbent stationary bike arrived last weekend. I put it together and...it works! Gives me an excellent cardio workout, so now I can back off on running. Also found new ways to use my set of springs for resistance training: can now do chest presses, curls, lats, triceps, overheads.

Gyms are closed so I go jogging or power-walking 4-5 times a week
Miss hitting the weights, but it's better than nothing

Been jogging. So what happens yesterday. A 20+ year old injury comes back to haunt me. My right calf. Now I have to buy a compression garment and see if that helps. Been trying to buy dumbbells, but either they're not in stock or hey charge an
outrageous price.

I'd like to pose a question: Do you think that, after all this is over, most people will return to their workouts at gyms and Y's when they reopen? I'm sure most of you who post here will return, but I'm wondering about the population in general. In my experience, gym and Y memberships--for that matter, commitment to exercise--is pretty tenuous. Your views?

I think people are looking to get out. They may be apprehensive about the cleanliness of the gym, but they might try to go back at first. Whether they stick with it or not is a completely different question.

Just jogged. It's not weight lifting, but it's better than nothing.

Went to Academy Sports for dumbbells; they only had 2-3 pounders.

Went on a 25 mile bike ride this morning. Still sore from the circuit training on Wednesday, but it's slowly getting better. Might give that another go on Wednesday again.

Been trying to buy dumbbells online. Can't believe the outrageous prices. For example: one(1) 40lb. dumbbell delivered for $199.

Been back working out, alot of jumping rope and lifting primarily concentrating on my chest and arms. Been using a concrete block for those exercises. Back eating clean also.
I did buy a flat bench and a pair 45 lb.
Dumbells online. Delivery date is April 10th. If I'm lucky.

Actually working out at home has been surprising good. Been enjoying it.

Circuit training tomorrow morning. Soreness has gone away, so I’m sure tomorrow I’ll just be back at it.

Am on a decent workout schedule although with tiny weights. However, just walked in from my car and while doing that the old injury in my right calf (which I've been able to work around over the last few weeks) hit me. So, now I'll have to rehab it all over again.

Sorry to hear that olivant. Feel better. I didn't exercise Saturday but yesterday I biked. Will try to do circuit training again Wednesday. Been trying to go swimming but the weather hasn't been cooperating. Maybe this weekend if the stars align?
