The coronavirus pandemic has caused a gym in Bergen County to close after two decades, and it looks like for good.

 

THE GYM in Montvale says it won't reopen, even when it's OK to do so.

In a post on Instagram, the gym says, in part, “THE GYM has been the forerunner of the gym experience for over 18 years in the Montvale community, so it is with the sincerest regret that we must inform you that THE GYM of Montvale will not be re-opening its doors at the conclusion to the executive Statewide Stay at Home Order.

The gym has been around for nearly 20 years.

It's a close-knit community, recently fighting off the opening of a nearby chain giant – Life Time Fitness.

There is another location in Englewood.

It's unclear how many people will lose their jobs.
