Sun Valley Fitness Centers Open Again
My Jose Mier post from November was all about me complaining that the gyms were not yet open in Sun Valley. That was just about four months ago. And as you know, gyms had been closed once again in July of 2020. It’s hard to believe, but they are allowing gyms and fitness centers to reopen once again—as usual with all this government restriction—at limited capacity.
Regardless, imagine my delight when I received an email from my gym telling me that as of March 29 the gym would be reopened. I don’t know about you but I have seriously neglected my fitness since last July. Unlike some of my fellow Sun Valley residents I don’t have gym equipment in my home. Yes there are alternatives like filling buckets with water to do bicep curls but that really hasn’t worked out for me. I need the incentive of a fully equipped gymnasium to make me want to work out.
The one thing I have done is walk almost every day and I’m lucky to live near Sun Valley’s Verdugo foothills so I can walk up a hill and get some incline. However, compared to the weight lifting that I was doing at the gym before it’s an inferior substitute. So you can imagine I’m very happy to hear that Jim’s reopening and I will be one of the first in line to get into my gym this coming Monday morning. Wish me luck as I try to get back into some kind of shape.
