Exercises were left out of both phases, with the Pancyprian Association of Physical Education and Sports Graduates broadcasting sos for the viability of employees in the field of sports, but also for citizens who need exercise due to illness.

The President of PASYPEFAA, Antonis Alexopoulos, spoke to SigmaLive, referring to the inequalities faced by the gymnasts' area in relation to other disciplines.

He initially stated that the Association's position was not to stop the personal trainer with a trainer to a trainee or a trainer with three trainees, inside the gym, something that was not listened to.

Mr. Alexopoulos characterized the decisions as absurd, as industries such as tattooing, beauticians and hairdressers, return to work while having direct contact with their clients.

He added that the Ministry did not take into account the need of some people for exercise, due to health problems. "There are people whose health depends on fitness and people are left hanging."

Finally, he mentioned that in collaboration with the COM they suggested the return of the personal trainer inside the gym by applying protocols and they hope to catch the train of relaxation in the second phase.

It is recalled that during yesterday's press conference, the Minister of Health stated that "there were cases in gyms and in sports and in many other places".
