Still not sure how I feel stepping foot inside a gym atm... I've thought about going super early in the morning before all the equipment gets touched all over - but for now, that will remain just a thought

Which gym are you part of? It may not be as bad as you think depending. I signed up for Anytime Fitness when they reopened and it has been great so far. I've rotated between 3 locations. Weekdays I go in the AM at around 530/600 and weekends at night around 100 AM. Yea, there are people but not many, even less so at night obviously. Enough people are doing different things that it's pretty spread. So far 100% of the people have been good about wiping down bars, benches, and machines after use. If you didn't witness the wiping down of the machine people will also wipe before use so that's like double sanitizing. I'd say roughly 75% of people are wiping down dumbbells. Plates though are the lowest like maybe 10% at best, there's much more surface to wipe down and is overall harder to do. It hasn't bothered me, I've just had to change my routine a bit for example it was previously normal for you to be touching stuff then grabbing your phone multiple times. Now I grab my phone less and if I do I wipe my hands before I do so.
