Hey guys

Thought let's add some fun while going through this together.

Who has still been training? What have you guys been getting up to. I don't have any equipment at home so been doing some pushups, handstand pushups for shoulders and sit ups and some walking lunges. My little family has been doing some exercises to videos on TV, funniest thing to watch.

What's some good exercises to do without access to iron?

Also who is struggling with not over eating because I am :blush:

Hey pump wusup brother. I've been doing resistance training with my wife yesterday. For eg as a chest press exercise I'd sit on the couch with my fists forward like I'm holding the handles of a chest press machine and my wife just applies her full body weight. Same goes for arm exercises ( triceps pushdown, bicep curls etc ). I've always been doing squats with her on my back lol. Partner workouts seems to be a great thing too and since I'm a MMA fighter I have some punching bag equipment too.

I have a little equipment, bench, bars, around 70kg weights. Have not been doing much though, been a little chesty last 2 weeks. No fever, sore throat...so...out of boredom yestetday, did some chest. Threw some dumbells around. Chest feels nice today.

Jeff cavalier has a video on YouTube for exercises u can do at home without equipment. Give it a look see...

Whilst on this, what about nutrition/supplements for immune system during this time? My regiment currently is a multivit, vit c, zinc, garlic caps, black seed oil, honey, apple cider, saw palmetto, one cycle support, maca powder, pine bark, tongat ali, tribulus, horny goat weed (pct done, but no chance to do bloods with current situation, hence some testosterone support there) so, what u think, missing anything or over-kill?

I’ve got a permit as essential worker so have been doing some things working and been too tired to get a proper session in. However I’ve been throwing around some dumb bells and bench presses as well. When bored I do push ups lol.

However for the bulk of my time I’m just relaxing and enjoying the views which gets taken for granted everyday .

So good for the mind. I also have a permit so I assume your job is also pretty intense, using free time to clean the mind, stay in prayer, look into the distance. The other day I was lying by the pool playing that game of finding images in the clouds. The brain does contain a muscle,, cellular structure, matter and so forth. So good job. I find balancing the mind certainly balances the body dropping cortisol, helping you stay more anabolic, so good job;)

Im liking the lock down. I can certainly gain weight rn. Seemingly i need to bulk like Oupa said. Im focussing on diet and playing mostly PC games and studying. Doing some pushups when i get "barbell cravings".

One thing I do hate is the absolute boredom. Im way too much of a social creature!

I have a Powertec WB-MS and a Body-Solid GLGS100P4 machine at home with half a ton of weights :P





Was looking forward to the lockdown, but then got a cold somehow... at least I hope it's a cold. I'm still a little weak at the moment, but should be able to train again in 2-3 days.

Haha, at least you hope.. I'm sure it is. Well you have the generics to grow quickly so let's see what happens when you back in action. That looks like quite the machine. You haven't broken your bench again have you :silly:
