Coronavirus Response: May 21

A black and red graphic image of the coronavirus with the words "daily brief."

Daily Update

 

As more gyms reopen, hope blossoms. Several gym owners report:

– Classes at max allowable capacity.

– The return of clients who cancelled during the shutdown.

– The return of clients who cancelled months (even years!) ago.

– Members paying for personal training if that’s the only coaching available.

– Some members sticking with online coaching (for now). Online coaching retention seems to be holding steady after a small dip in April.

McKinsey.com reports that consumer optimism is up, and “spending on other categories such as … fitness and wellness … is slowly picking up in regions that are emerging from the crisis.”

There are a lot of reasons to be optimistic!
