Im going to share a few short and easy home workouts to occupy your time during this quarantine! Home workouts need to be an exercise that can be done easily without weight and that do not require a lot of moving room. These can be used for abs, arms and your booty!

Ab Workouts!

This cycle of ab workouts are what I do every single time I’m in the gym. Every. Single. Time. They are simple, yet effective!

•Crunches

•Bicycle Kicks

•Small Butterfly Kicks

•Wide Butterfly Kicks

•Russian Twists

•Mountain Climbers

•V-Ups

Arm Workouts!

Arm workouts can easily be made, any body weight movements are good for toning up! Even if you don’t have any fancy movements to do, all you half to do to feel it in your arms... hold a plank. Then move the plank to push up position (no pushups, or pushups your preference) and then back down to plank. Do that for 45 seconds and tell me you don’t feel a slight ache from round one.

•Push ups

•Regular Planks

•Push Up Planks

•Mountain Climbers

•Burpees

Booty Moves!

What better pass time when stuck inside then improving and making booty gains! These can be the most motivating, for me, coming in close with abs! Leg and butt workouts can easily be done with body weight movements, just like arms. But, if you want to challenge yourself you can always add weight. It doesn’t have to be from a dumbbell. Pick up a stack of books or magazines, water packages, dog food bag, anything you can find that will challenge you a bit! Here a few of my favorite!

•Dumbbell Squats (Item Squats)

•Regular Body Weight Squats

•Bridges (Lay on your back , bend your knees and lift your butt into the air, touch the ground them back up.)

•Lay on your side and lift your top leg into the air, making a sideways V. Lift and slowly bring down then lift again, multiple times.

These are just a few at home movements to keep your body moving and healthy during this time. Any of these can be altered, a few of them even work two target areas at once!

Don’t think that just because you can’t access a gym, you can’t keep moving and pushing towards your goals.

If I have learned one thing in my lifetime, it is that friends are a privilege. No one is required to give you their company and yet there is some sort of shared connection that keeps you together. And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
