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.

It was the second time this year after an historic geomagnetic storm in May 2024. Those Northern Lights were visible in Europe and North America, just like this latest rendition.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
