5 People to Follow for Quarantine Workouts

We know that it has probably been really challenging for you to adapt to major changes since this pandemic really took off. Some of us are more impacted than others, but most of our readers from major cities don’t have access to gyms because of mandated closures. That is, however, no excuse to let you goals and level of fitness fail. There are countless trainers out there, who can’t work right now, making amazing content for both their followers and the rest of the public. Here are a few that have been putting out amazing workouts with little to no equipment, for even longer than the quarantine.

Coronavirus Announcement

You’ve probably received an email from every company or group that you’ve ever given your email address to at this point. From utility companies to your local gym, everyone is feeling the impact of this novel coronavirus. We’ve know about it since November and have chosen to ignore it for far too long. Now, at this point, the most pressing issues are the economic repercussions of allowing it to spread while trying to cover it with a curtain. As a result all of this mistake, businesses are closed across the board and we are nearly all losing money. Whether you’re out of work, or paying for services that you cannot receive, we need to be more thoughtful in our daily life to make it through this. 

First, for quality updates and information on the topic, I recommend keeping an eye on Dr. Mike’s YouTube channel. Here is his latest video. He is a practicing doctor in the hospitals of New York City and has a way of making complicated information about the coronavirus very digestible. 

Second, you need to make sure that you’re isolating yourself as much as possible to prevent the spread of the coronavirus. As Dr. Mike explains, the germs can possibly hang inside of the air within a room for three hours if someone sneezes and the atmospheric conditions are met. If you enter that room within the time frame that those germs make contact with your eyes, nose or mouth, you’re at great risk of contracting the virus and at the very least, being a carrier. We are much safer outside, where the sun’s UV rays are one of the most efficient ways at destroy the virus. Also, the germs can survive for 2-3 days on non-porous surfaces such as metals and plastics. That means you need to clean those surfaces often. Do not take any chances at increasing the overall rate of infection for our population. 

Third, you need to take care of yourself both physically and mentally. With gyms and restaurants closed, we’re going to need to figure out ways to exercise and eat properly at home. We’re going to help you with that, providing more workouts and recipes that will fit this situation. We’re going to go over ideas for stocking your pantry with non-perishables that are healthy and delicious, as well as provide you with workouts that don’t require equipment. Stay tuned for more content, especially since I’m out of the gym for a month due to closures in the city. With that being said, more slots are also open for remote clients. Email ct@hungryandfit.com if you’re interested in that service. 

Be well informed and make thoughtful decisions. Take care of yourself and those in your community. Stay strong. Stay hungry and fit.

To start, HERE IS ONE of our favorite at home workouts that you can do without equipment. It scales for beginners and the most advanced athletes. (I apologize for the broken photo links… it is an OLD article.)
