The COVID-19 outbreak has forced gyms and other fitness providers to temporarily close their doors, keeping many Minnesotans from staying fit with regular workouts.

But many in the fitness industry have been quick to adapt and find ways to continue what they love: helping people strengthen their bodies and calm their minds.

Providers are stepping up: offering virtual workouts, making libraries of videos available for free or on a pay-what-you-can basis, showing you creative ways to work out at home, and much more.

This article will be a regularly updated summary of gyms, fitness studios and fitness leaders — the ones we know about so far — in and around the Twin Cities working overtime to keep community members healthy, mentally and physically.

Note: If you know of a fitness leader or fitness business that should be included here, have the business owner e-mail the Star Tribune's Rich Gordon, at rich.gordon@startribune.com.
