I tested positive on Friday for Covid. I have no symptoms- feel 100%. I can’t leave my studio apartment until Monday. Normally I run anywhere from 4-6 miles outside a day. Anyone have any suggestions on exercise classes that don’t require any equipment? Or just general ideas to keep moving?

Popsugar Fitness and Blogilates are both good options

Sweat has multiple programs for at-home workouts with little to no equipment - strength building, cardio, yoga, pilates, etc. Peloton app still has a free trial and I know many people like that. A lot of studios are also doing Zoom classes right now!

To keep moving: jumping jacks, arm rolls, squats, planks, bridges, stretching, etc.

Yoga With Adriene is great! Also, I recommend walking around in your apartment -- you'll feel silly doing it but you can totally get 10,000 steps that way, little by little. (Wear sneakers or supportive slippers though, the hard floors hurt after awhile)

Are you looking for something that replicates the intensity of cardio, or something closer to weight training / HIIT?

Don’t you have to quarantine for 2 weeks after diagnosis?

Anyways, peloton and apple fitness have free trials and classes that don’t require weights. Also on youtube, popsugar fitness or fitness blender are food alternatives.

Ah sorry I thought you meant like Friday to Monday like within the same week. I don’t know time anymore with covid lol but okay, hope you recover alright OP!

I feel like you should just do light yoga and stretching. You have a flu virus, so your body needs it rest to properly fight it even if you're not symptomatic.

Just curious, how did you know to get tested if you had no symptoms?

Thanks

Obé fitness has a free trial, use code MADELINE100. They offer so many different types of workouts!

Facebook Ads after iOS 14 changes.

I'll share my experience and urge you to share yours:

Since iOS 14 changes, Facebook ads isn't the same anymore. Why?

A. >75% iOS users denied tracking. They are no longer tracked across websites/apps. Facebook lost its edge.
B. Targeting and conversion tracking aren't as effective anymore.
C. Many advertisers have been migrating their budgets from Facebook to Apple and Amazon ads.

What's your experience? Let's all learn.
