GYMS REOPEN ACROSS THE FAR NORTH COAST THANKS TO RELAXED RESTRICTIONS

In the Northern Rivers, fitness junkies have rushed through the doors of local gyms on the first day of relaxed restrictions.

Anytime Fitness in Goonellabah has received a makeover during the forced shutdown, and was buzzing with people wanting to break a sweat this morning.

“Gyms are safe, they’re great for mental health and I know a lot of people have been stuck inside… we’ve got plenty of measures in place to keep you all safe,” Club Manager, George Stevens, said.

Pilates, yoga and dance studios have also been given the tick of approval to reopen.
