With no clear indication as to when gyms will reopen, the industry fears a total collapse. It’s expected that around 80% of gyms are likely to shut down permanently, with massive job losses, should gyms continue to remain closed.

It’s expected that around 80% of gyms are likely to shut down permanently, with massive job losses, should gyms continue to remain closed.
