Takes 21 days to form a new habit, so there's every chance they'll continue!

No, there is not. When the circumstances change, habits change too.

When people go back to work, they will have less time at their hands. They will have to adjust to commuting again, taking kids to/from school again, being somewhere at time again.

All of that will cut into their exercise time. All the people who are exercising out of boredom now will stop exercising out of being tired of doing lot of things again.

It's far from given that a return to pre-outbreak commuting patterns will be the norm.
