The corona virus grabbed Germany firmly, forcing us to stay home. The ceiling may quickly fall on your head-even though there are currently many free downloadable games, movies and series. Exercise and exercise can help! Professor Jens Kleinert of the Institute of Psychology at the German University of Sport in Cologne said: "The research is very clear. The worse we feel, the more we can benefit from physical exercise. The same applies to emotional and physical conditions."
Sports in the home office
However, there is currently only a limited degree of physical activity in Germany: temporarily closing the gym and banning training in clubs. So creativity is needed now-in this special show, we will show you how to stay isolated from your smartphone and the internet and measure your movement with friends.
Keep going
Those who spend a lot of time at home usually move less time than before because they don't need to go to work and go back. More importantly, you have to force yourself to take regular breaks. For example, you can set an alarm clock in your home office to remind you to take steps or do some gymnastic exercises every 30 minutes. If that's too much trouble, you can also order a fitness tracker. Smart bracelets usually don't even cost 50 euros, and if you don't go for a long time, they will also alert you with vibration alerts.

If you don't want to carry your smartphone with you, you can use a fitness tracker with a GPS or better smartwatch. Some of them can even store music and transfer it to True Wireless headphones via Bluetooth.
Measure yourself in the quarantine: how it works
Playing sports alone is great, but now many people should miss like-minded sports games. But you don't have to be without this. Many sports applications give you the opportunity to connect with friends and take virtual measurements with them. For example, at Garmin Connect, you can challenge friends to challenge. This can take a day, a week or more. The application then compares how many steps each of you performed and selects the winner. Similar functionality can be found in other sports applications.
Just turn off
In home offices, we tend to work longer. After all, we can still reply to emails quickly at home, and others may be rushing to the door now because they are worried about work. But to maintain efficiency, we must also turn off the power. Meditation can help you get rid of everyday life and troubles. If you want to try it, we recommend the following applications:
