Well, self-quarantining is in full effect.
Due to coronavirus contagiousness, on Monday, the President released his “15 Days to Stop the Spread” (here).
It included the following:
- Avoid eating or drinking at bars, restaurants, and food courts — use drive-thru, pickup, or delivery options.
- Avoid discretionary travel, shopping trips, and social visits.
And:
Avoid social gatherings in group of more than 10 people.
Furthermore, he advised thusly:
In states with evidence of community transmission, bars, restaurants, food courts, gyms, and other indoor and outdoor venues where groups of people congregate should be closed.
Therefore: Your daily trip to 24 Hour Fitness? Might wanna hold off.
Your nightly workout at the Y? Press Pause.
That pickup basketball game after work? Stay away from sweaty bodyslapping.
So while you’re holed up like a criminal on the lam, how do you get your exercise to keep that immunity system boosted?
A man on Twitter has found a way, Jack!
And as an incredible service to the community, he’s provided an illustration.
Sure — the grocery store may be out of toilet paper and hand sanitizer; but all you really need is some dish washing liquid.
Watch an absolute genius at work:

I guess it’s true — the mother of invention is quite a mother indeed.
Forget those $5,000 treadmills, expensive gym memberships, and the danger of running in traffic.
All you need is right where you are.
A word of advice: When it’s time to clean the floor, don’t use your Charmin.
But if you do, the Newport Police Department has you covered here.
Happy treadmilling.
