BACK TO THE GYM

Over the past few months, gym bunnies have been converting their living rooms, kitchens and gardens into mini fitness stations. But for most of us, our homes can now return to normal with the reopening of gyms in England and Wales following the move in Northern Ireland last month.

• reducing exercise class sizes and allowing sufficient time between each class
