Now that everyone is now required to stay home during enhanced community quarantine, staying fit will be a big concern. We’re looking at perhaps a month of staying in — except for those times when you have to go out and buy basic necessities — so keeping fit will be necessary.
Thankfully, these coaches, athletes, gyms, and yes, even one sports store are posting home workouts that you can while stuck at home.
Hey, who knows. When this quarantine period ends, you might be even more buff than before.
Vic Manuel’s #HomeWorkoutChallenge
Vic Manuel has been consistently posting his home workouts ever since head coach Jeff Cariaso challenged the Alaska Aces to get lockdown fit. Watch his vids to get inspo. Here’s how his Day 3 challenge went. (Take note, he uses some specialized equipment like elastic bands for resistance and medicine balls as weights. He also uses a ladder and cones for agility drills.)
Plank, 1 minute x 3
Side Plank, 1 minute x 3
Glute Bridge Hold, 1 minute x 3
20 Sit-ups x 3
20 Weighted Sit-ups x 3
20 Weighted V-ups x 3

50 Elastic Band Squats x 3
20 Elastic Band Pallof Presses x 3

Callanta’s recommendation? Do this multiple times a day.
Decathlon’s One Month Training Plan
With store closures (both their brick-and-mortar stores and their online one) temporarily shut down, the sporting goods retailer was still game enough to post a 7-day workout plan for people who are quarantined at home. (For those living in Luzon, that’s almost everyone.) With gyms closed, you’ll need to rely on your own initiative to keep fit. Thankfully, this 7-day workout plan is made of pure bodyweight exercises, so you won’t need specialized equipment to do it.
Here's a sample of their Monday workout. Check out the Facebook post embedded below to see the rest.
Monday
Stationary Jogging, 50 reps
15 Squats x 3
15 Side Lunges x 3
12 Inchworms x 3
20 Striders x 3
Planks, 30 sec hold x 3
15 Hip Thrusts x 3
15 Lying Hip Abductions x 3
Rest for 20 seconds in between exercises. Rest for 10 seconds in between sets. Stretch to cool down.

Sparta Body Leg Calisthenics Workout

Primal Ape Crossfit’s Home WOD (from Coach Chris)
With CrossFit gyms now closed, many boxes are sending their members helpful home WODs (workouts of the day). That’s something you can do as well if you have a gym membership that you obviously can’t use now — go text your coaches and your gyms to ask for routines.
Here’s a sample from Primal Ape CrossFit in Makati.
500 Air Squats
But every time you need to take a break, do 10 push-ups and 10 sit-ups
