Despite the intimidating stories in the media that the boom in home fitness inspired by COVID will mean the end of traditional sports clubs, it is gratifying that most sports club members want to return to training in the gym. "Since the reopening of the sports and fitness clubs in June and July, we have seen a large number of members want to return to the club as soon as possible, and we are almost bac

Pēc COVID-19 inficēto skaita palielināšanās jūlija beigās, Generalitat valdība lika slēgt visas sporta zāles un sporta centrus. Simtiem sporta zāļu īpašnieku, darbinieku un sporta leģendu rīkoja protestus pie vietējās pašvaldības ēkas. Viņi apgalvoja, ka sporta zālēs nav bijuši inficēšanās gadījumi, un ka viņi ir veikuši ievērojamus ieguldījumus, lai ievērotu obligātos drošības pasākumus.
