No new own dining out still, but it’s a start,
Gyms in New York City are allowed to reopen Wednesday, with restrictions in place.
Each gym has to pass a virtual inspection, no indoor group classes are allowed and swimming pools will remain closed.
Still, this is a day lots of people have been waiting for, with many making appointments to get in to fitness facilities across the city.
Many have said they are returning with confidence in new safety measures now in place.
Eyewitness News was at a Blink Fitness facility in Park Slope, Brooklyn well before dawn.
Before the gym opened, Justin Rushing and Shanchelle Mitchell were lined up and ready to make up for lost ground.
"I haven't been able to hit legs at all, now's the time," Rushing said.
"Every day I've been counting down the days," Mitchell said. "It's a good day!"
At Crunch Gym in Union Square, gym goers
said it felt like the first day of school.
Eyewitness News found customer Sharon Moore wiping down the treadmill she just used -- one of many changes at gyms - and she said felt the gym was doing well.
