Hiking enthusiast Rita Chan, 50, turns to exercise videos online to maintain her fitness level although it is not the same as being outdoors. He said the rise in equipment sales was due to people spending more time at home. He said the implementation of the first MCO caught many off-guard, and this contributed to the surge in demand for exercise equipment. “Many fitness centres moved their training sessions online, so many people were buying equipment to keep up with their exercise routine at home,” she added. “So, although there has been an increase in home-range equipment sales, there are other setbacks to deal with,” said Au Yong.
