Class gyms as essential to allow for indoor exercise and for them to remain open
To consider all gyms as essential to allow for all types of people to exercise in a safe in door environment by remaining open during lock down measures. How can you justify off licenses as essential unless you're encouraging alcoholism which is a strain on society, but I guess it's about tax...?
Exercise ensures a healthy population&people who go to gyms have different goals&reasons for going, but one thing is clear it improves both physical&mental well-being. Allowing for outdoor only exercise does not allow all types of people to train in their chosen sport or to reach their goals which discriminates against people of different abilities and mental conditions. The weather in this country will prevent people going outside&dark nights and mornings and crime levels makeing it in safe.
