Gov. Ron DeSantis announced today that the state will move into a “full Phase 1” starting Monday.

That means gyms, which have previously been excluded can finally reopen. Restaurants also have received a bump as they will, starting Monday, be allowed to serve patrons at 50% capacity. Theme parks and other excluded businesses are next on the list, and beaches across the state will reopen Monday as well.

Movie theaters, however, are one of the few exceptions and will not be allowed to reopen on Monday.

As the governor (and health experts) has advised young, healthy people to get back to their normal lives as soon as possible, meaning if they have been inactive, they should start exercising again as soon as possible because, for the young and healthy, that is one of the best ways to protect yourself from the coronavirus.
