Gym owners, coaches, and personal trainers, how are you handling things? How are you adapting?
Friends of MDA, Thom and Tracey Downing, run a fantastic personal training gym called FIT in Los Altos, CA that’s been shuttered for the time being. They’ve come up with a series of innovative workarounds to keep their clients healthy and their coaches working: loaning out almost all the gym equipment—kettlebells, bands, dumbbells, and the like—to clients in the area and setting up online training sessions, cooking classes, and guided meditations via Zoom, running “PE classes” for kids, and posting home workouts and updates on Instagram. This is adaptation in real time. It’s hard, but it’s also cool to see.
