it seems like being in prison because it's like being in prison; and everyone over the planet, people are asking: how does one stay fit when you’re confined to the house?
This is assuming you don’t have already got or want to shop for, a load of kit. (Although if you are doing want something cheap and incredibly useful, get some resistance bands.)
You don’t need any stuff to urge fit – no weights, no benches, definitely no fancy trainers. And you'll aim high. Theoretically, you'll awaken in four months’ time looking sort of a creature of myth, a person or woman who has been stuck with the upper body of a bullock. which will not be what you would like, of course, and if you notice it happening, stop the calisthenics and consider star jumps.
Press-ups are the thing nobody wants to speak about, because they’re such a fitness cliche. But everybody needs to do them because they became a cliche for a reason – and you'll do them during a large toilet cubicle. There are five sorts of press-up: regular; cross-over hand placement (this is genuinely impossible unless you're already very strong, but I only tried it twice); Hindu, where you begin during a downward dog; handstand press-up (in your dreams); and one-armed press-up (in your other, marginally more frightening dreams).
Start by trying five at a time. as long as you've got an enormous amount of your time, you'll soon be racking up 240 during a day. I say “you” advisedly; I’m never. But I'm performing on it because the sense of progress plays an enormous part in staying sane. Even to travel from five half-press-ups each day to 5 full ones brings quite a way of private achievement. It says that some things haven’t changed, one season will still follow another, the practice still makes, if not perfect, a minimum of substantially less inept.
