Quarantine 2020

Life has drastically changed in a very short period of time. One day I was in the studio teaching, and the next day I was on lock down. It happened so fast! All of the sudden, I had to worry about buying food and hunting down toilet paper, rather then planning out my week. I am a planner, and this was not in my plan. Does anyone else know the feeling?

So what do you do when you are practicing social distancing? Some people go about business as usual, some people do only the necessary errands, and others completely isolate themselves. It is a confusing and scary time right now, and people are dealing with it in their own way. I deal with it by maintaining my daily workouts, cleaning my house, organizing everything, and tackling new projects at home. Life is unpredictable right now, but my workout schedule is not. It is the one thing I can count on right now.

For those of you who used to enjoy your time in the gym, this means adopting a new way of approaching fitness. You might have to get more creative, carve out a small space at home to workout in, and try something new. The bright side is that working out at home can be fun! It might seem hard at first, but once you get a rhythm going, you will be a pro at getting in those workouts. You might not have a selection of fancy machines to choose from, but all you need is your own body weight and maybe a few dumbbells or resistance bands.

Don’t let this quarantine stop you from maintaining your fitness routine. If you have the will, there is a way! I have been working out at home for over 16 years now, and believe me, you can stay in shape from home.
