Which Gyms Are Now Open in Rochester?

Governor Cuomo allowed gyms to reopen Monday August 24th, after being excluded from the initial phase 4 reopening plan.

However, not all gyms in our area are open right now and others have limited hours.

A WDKX Frontliner describes what it’s like to exercise with a mask on:

“I’ve been [to the gym] every day since it opened. I have asthma and honestly it hasn’t been too bad. The mask gets gross when you sweat. But LA is charging full rate even though the pool, b-ball courts, showers, steam room and most of the classes aren’t open.”

Add that to the fact that Kids Klubs at LA Fitness are also closed and you’d think they would reduce the membership price.

World Gym Rochester held a “soft reopening” on Monday with no group classes or childcare services.

Gold’s Gym in Fairport and Webster are now open along with Harro East Athletic Club and LA Fitness

All Planet Fitness locations in Albany, Rochester and Buffalo are reopening Friday August 28.

YMCA – Branches will begin reopening Friday, Aug. 28. Each location has different hours so make sure you call ahead. It’s possible the pools there may also be closed.

Louis S. Wolk JCC of Greater Rochester and RAC for Women have not set a reopening date, but they say it will probably be early September.
