"The local gym is not dead" according to a survey report from McKinsey. Although the pandemic has disrupted traditional gym-goers' routines, their passion for fitness remains strong. Many people still miss working out at gyms, but the
pandemic has forced them to keep a social distance from their social activities. In 2017, a report predicted that global fitness product sales could reach $12.8 billion by 2022. Due to the impact of the virus, the demand for fitness products has experienced a significant increase in 2020.
The report indicates that the local gym is not dead, as 70% of consumers miss their workouts.
However, the COVID-19 pandemic has changed fitness consumers' habits. Traditional gym owners face the challenge of providing a more hygienic workout environment and higher quality service in the future market.
