Bengaluru, Jul 31: Gyms in Bengaluru carried out sanitation work on Thursday following the Centre's nod to reopen gyms from August 5, after several weeks of COVID-induced lockdowns.
"We are taking all the precautionary measures prescribed by the government and will follow the guidelines very strictly. A thermal scanner, oximeter and hand sanitizers have been placed at the entrance of the gym.
We request all other gym owners also to follow the guidelines strictly to keep their members safe and healthy," said Prasad Kumar, a gym owner in Bangalore.
He added, "The last few months have been very difficult for us gym owners and fitness instructors. We are very grateful to the government for allowing us to re-open.
We are going to be very cautious when we open. Even before this COVID-19 pandemic, we used to sanitise all the equipment before and after every use so hopefully, this won't be too difficult for us. We are getting rid of the air conditioners to allow cross ventilation and open the space a little more."
According to Chandu Gowda, an actor and frequenter of the gym, working out at home was not the same as working out in the gym with the proper equipment.
"I'm very glad that I get to come back and work out as I used to before this lockdown. For an actor, working out is extremely important, not just for my physical health but also mental health.
Doing exercises at home is never as good as exercising in a space dedicated to one purpose. I hope other members of the gym follow the rules and regulations religiously," Gowda said.

Comments
last week i heard one news regarding several mobiles found inside the jail?, in mangalore jail anything can happen.
this is the position of our police in india, they even cant save inmates in jail.
suicide in jail. funny!!!
would have given second chance to him.
i dont know what to comment on this but whatever happened we are happy in this case.
whatever happened should happen to everyone who rapes women.
may be he realized his mistake and punished himself.
shame on police department they cant even monitor jail inmates.
our constitution says: Is It Better That Ten Guilty Persons Go Free Than That One Innocent. this case must have some story of wrongfulness.
what will be the reason behind his suicide, may be he was wrongly inducted in this case.
