3)Distancing - OK this may work but some people (especially on weights) work in pairs but at some times gym can be busy with some equipment having queues.

Masks - how does that work wanting to drink while on CV equipment? Heavier masks won't help your breathing, will light ones fall off? Wiping sweat off?
Not all gyms have or centre on cardio equipment. For the record I completed a 6 mile run with a mask on all the way. Sure it was uncomfortable but do-able.

Not having changing facilities wouldn’t be a problem for me, I live a few hundred yards from my gym. Booking slots may be challenging as I’m pretty anti-social in the gym and prefer early morning slots, preferably around 4 or 5am. As for people training in pairs, I’ve never been a fan of that. Twice as long to wait for them to finish plus the long chats whilst “rearing” between sets. If they bring in a no-spotting rule I won’t be too bothered.
