Has anyone actually increased their activity levels during current restrictions?

For me personally I believe I’ve adapted pretty well, I haven’t been doing my sports but I’ve done personal workouts using weights and I reckon my fitness levels have actually increased in the last couple of months 😬

Anyone else done this?

Well done.I recommend you carry on working out with weights and make yourself stronger.
I prepared for my 4th dan karate black by barefoot running 8 miles a day on pavements (sidewalks) and though a wooded area behind my home.After running I practiced all my karate techniques including punching and kicking some of the tree trunks to make sure my hands and feet were super tough.I passed my grading so now I'm a 4th dan.
Gyms are open here now and I'm back there using the weights and swimming after my workouts.

@Chrisy2 In principle, yes, but I'd rather eat a bowl of thumbtacks. I know it's wrong but I just can't make myself do body-weight exercises. 😒

Everyone has their strengths when it comes to fitness - you just need to wait u til your leg is ok & you’ll be flying again! 😎👍@BlueVeins

@Chrisy2 Thanks. 🤗 I oughtta get into climbing when I go back to college. That'd be a good upper body workout.

No, unfortunately I realize how much I was exercising before and haven't been able to match it. Just getting to and from class and biking around town to meet up with people was a lot of it. I've gained 5 pounds since all this started.

No,the opposite. Been letting myself go, and been feeling demotivated, was meant to be going through my career change but that may just have to wait.

Yes, it’s been nice. I’ve run over 150 miles this month
