There's some light at the end of the tunnel at last with the announcement that gyms in Scotland might get to open from the week commencing April 26th 2021!
However, it is important to bear in mind that this is all provisional at this stage. April 26th is the date the government indicated the economy might be allowed to start opening back up and so this doesn't necessarily mean gyms will be allowed to open from that exact date.
By the same token they did say that things might be sped up if certain factors go the right way. If indeed this might happen and by how much remains to be seen.
The government also indicated that they will provide more detail on the road map out of lockdown in mid March, so we might have a clearer picture of things come then.
This was perhaps not the news many people wanted to hear given the English government's committal to more concrete and indeed earlier dates. However, it is cause for optimism all the same.
At the time of writing we still have the best part of 9 weeks until the provisional date of April 26th arrives.
If you need some motivation and want to take action to improve your health and fitness before then or indeed if you want to get training to ensure you hit the ground running once the gyms do open up again, then take a look at our Online Personal Training page and Drop Us A Message!
