The COVID-19 mandated #StayAtHome movement is simple: if we all stay at home and minimize our exposure to other people, practice social distancing and maintain proper hygiene, we can flatten the curve, reduce the number of contagions and return to “normal life” sooner rather than later.

With that said, it’s important for us all to remain healthy and active indoors, and there are certainly many ways this can be achieved.
Last week we listed 8 books you should read during the quarantine to stay productive and mindful with the aim of helping industry professionals and artists weather through the upcoming months at home. We believe reading, studying, learning and the constant pursuit of a better state of mind is of paramount importance for artists regardless of whether they’re touring or not, but with COVID-19 imposed lockdowns the importance of mental health takes center stage now more than ever.
Today, we want to focus on another important aspect that is not only vital for your mental health but physical health also: how to remain healthy and active indoors.
