LATHAM -- Beginning Saturday, gyms across New York were allowed to increase their capacity from 25 to 50 percent.
At Planet Fitness, some equipment is close together and social distancing markers remain in place until further guidance allows them to be removed.
"We still need to follow all the state mandates including the six foot social distancing so it'll be a few more people allowed in we won't quite reach that hundred percent following all the rules and regulations," said John Hrinda, Division President for Plant Fitness locations in Upstate New York.
However, Hrinda said members seem to be feeling more confident going to the gym.
