The Shelby County Health Department recently announced fitness facilities can remain open, however, masks are to be worn at all times in the facility except when in the pool or shower. This goes into effect Monday, November 23. While exercising with a mask may not be ideal, the new directive is an effort that allows us to stay open and also help mitigate the spread of the virus. We are grateful to be able to continue to provide a place for our community to exercise and stay healthy.
If you have not been exercising with a mask it is important to monitor how you feel during your workout. If you feel dizzy, lightheaded or short of breath, slow down, reduce the intensity or stop exercising until you feel better. Those with pre-existing respiratory or cardiovascular conditions should be cautious and consult a medical professional first.
We encourage you to stay safe, stay strong, and stay committed to what is being asked of us and of you. Even though we all have different views, we are all one health and fitness community. All of us at the Club are appreciative for the support we have received over the last several months and together we can get through this.
