Workout Wagga member Charlie Bance described his feeling of relief when he "jumped out of bed" on Sunday morning.

"I couldn't wait to get back in and get back to the routine, it's felt like there's something missing in my life these past few months," Mr Bance said.

"I'd usually be there two or three times a week. There's just a month until footy goes back too, so it's time to get back into it and get the strength back."

The months-long wait has been particularly difficult for staff at Hiit Republic on the corner of Baylis and Edward streets.

The newly-completed gym was set to host its launch party back in March, just as the COVID-19 forced its temporary closure.

"We actually hadn't even opened our doors yet it was just in the final stages of finishing [construction]," said Wagga manager Presslea Cowan.

"We were just about ready to open and then COVID hit. It was disappointing, but with a good couple of months behind us now we're all ready to be back."

Ms Cowan is the only current full-time member of the team, which includes 4 other casual trainers.

"At the start [of the restrictions], I thought this really could be a year that we'd be waiting to open," Ms Cowan said.

"Thankfully, that wasn't the case and things are going really well [with the pandemic]. Hopefully, we can keep up the cleaning and continue to go well so that we won't be shut down again."

Saturday became a soft-launch for the gym to open its doors with three evening classes.

Although government restrictions now allow for up to 20 participants, Ms Cowan said the weekend's first classes saw a comfortable 10-max.

"People were really excited to get back to the gym, and actually it's turned out to be a good time to start a gym," Ms Cowan said.

The new venture has been set up by Canberra-based Viva Leisure, which also owns Club Lime on Dobney Avenue.

Viva's national communications manager Leah Doyle told The Daily Advertiser COVID-19 restrictions had impacted on a number of its yet-to-open premises.

"Multiple stores would be open by now, we had our Albury gym open and then immediately shut and our Goulburn gym would be open by now if it weren't for the pandemic," Ms Doyle said.

"But we're ready to go full steam ahead now even if it's been a slow start."

This weekend the federal and state government have also begun relaxing limits on gatherings.

Households may cater for up to 20 guests, with the four-square metre distance encouraged.

Community centres, food courts, markets, tattoo and massage parlours, indoor and outdoor swimming pools, betting complexes and holiday homes will be allowed to re-open.

From July 1, venues that can usually cater to 40,000 will be now allowed to seat a quarter of their capacity.
