Exercising At Home

During a normal school week, students spend the whole day running around with few moments to stop and take a break.  Most days we are training for sport and the days off we’re on the oval playing touch footy.  As this all came grinding to a halt, we’ve had to find other means of exercise and training from home as our bodies are so accustomed to constant physical activity.  Being a boarder has made the process of exercising from home easier with wide open places to go for a run, swim, paddle, whatever your feeling to take a break from schoolwork.  With the gyms being closed, we’ve managed to set up a rudimentary gym here at home, and although it took about a week of preparing the area in the garden for the equipment (and only a slight amount of arguing during the construction process), it is now completed and has been great for keeping our physical activity levels up during our time in lockdown.  A bit of cattle work and odd jobs around the farm have also been beneficial in getting out of the house and moving around.  When we do get back to school soon, it will make the transition back into routine much easier by staying active during the break.
