WFH Is Fine, But Also Work Out From Home!

The COVID-19 pandemic has taken away a lot in our lives, one of them being the chance to stay physically active outdoors.

With the lockdown in place this year, too, those early morning walks, runs around the block and gym sessions with pals are off the agenda. It’s led to pandemic weight gain and almost everyone has been complaining of their struggles to stay fit. But where there’s a will... there’s a yoga mat! There’s a bunch of exercises that can be done at home that need no fancy equipment that people are taking to.

Actress Adah Sharma, who’s been exercising from home, says, “Anyone can do these home workouts — they don’t need much space. I started with doing pranayam and breathing. I now do handstands, which needs just two tile spaces at home, same for the hula hoop, which is a lot of fun. Stretches are something can one can do anywhere, even in bed. I also do Surya namaskars and cartwheels. That said, the main thing is to find what works for you and to enjoy what you do.”
