“When I heard the gym reopened, I could not help feeling so glad. We need to keep ourselves fit and healthy too. When I have time I workout at home, but it doesn’t beat the feeling of going to the gym, and because I am paying for it, so I get my money's worth. Chieng, an oil and gas engineer, turned up early today, to spend the first day of the celebration, getting fit.

Zulkifli Ahmad, who has been training to improve his health for four years, said his journey began after a scary reality check from his doctor.“I was pretty anxious when the gym was about to close and some of my friends and I invested in some gym equipment to work out in the park. But it just cannot replace the feeling of being here and working out,” the area operations manager for an international courier company said.

“I began my training today. No looking back now. I shall charge forward like an ox,” Syarul who frequents the Body Factory gym in Kelana Jaya said.
