Guest Post: Working Out During COVID-19 - Tips for Full-Body Fitness at Home

The rapid spread of COVID-19 has forced the shutdown of gyms, yoga studios, and wellness centers across the country. As a result, active individuals will have to find ways to maintain their fitness routine at home for the foreseeable future. Whether you typically attend yoga classes, lift weights at the gym, run on a treadmill, or work out with a personal trainer, it shouldn’t be too difficult to adapt your regular workout for home. Here are some great home workout ideas to get your body moving in all the right ways.

Movement for Mental Health

For years during and after college, I worked out to undo all the bad food and (adult) beverage choices I had made. If I overindulged, I would force myself to stay at the gym for hours, slugging away on the dreadmill or stair stepper. I wasn’t interested in lifting weights because I certainly didn’t want to add any bulk to my body. As a result, for years, I dreaded going to the gym to workout. 

It wasn’t until I found yoga that I slowly began to realize that movement in the body can be used for so much more than penance for bad eating habits.
