Keep up at the Back!

Tanya Beckett investigates the current economic health of the exercise industry.

The UK fitness industry employs twenty thousand people and is worth an estimated Β£5 billion to the economy. But - like most other industries - it shut down overnight in March. Some teachers and trainers made swift decisions to move online. Some businesses closed permanently. Will people want to return to busy gyms, even with the new protocols? Tanya Beckett dons her leotard to discover what shape the exercise industry is in.
