The COVID-19 pandemic has restricted physical activity in people of all ages. In many countries, both indoor and outdoor sports and recreational facilities, such as gyms, public swimming pools and playgrounds, are closed. Online communication for work, leisure and shopping is now part of daily family routines and children are using the internet for school work and social interaction. But because of these very restrictions, it becomes increasingly important to find ways to remain physically active. Physical activity includes all forms of active recreation, playing sports, cycling, swimming, walking or even doing household chores. It need not always be a monotonous exercise regime but can also include play, dance, gardening and even house cleaning for that matter.
Why’s it so important?
While we are all stuck at home, finding innovative ways to stay fit while not being able to go out is truly a challenge. The answer is really simple:
A word of caution
The World Health Organization recommends a minimum of at least 150 minutes of moderate intensity physical activity throughout the week or at least 75 minutes of vigorous activity for 2 or more days per week. But any activity is better than no activity.
Therefore, start with small amounts of exercise, gradually increasing the duration and intensity with time. Being active during COVID-19 is challenging for everyone but it is important to plan some form of exercise so you stay active and reduce the time spent being sedentary.
