Fitness Fellowship 2023: Week 24 Check-in

What's the air like where you are? I'll admit I had the luxury of taking clean air for granted until this past week, when I was forced indoors by Canadian wildfire smoke. (No shade on Canada, and I'm sorry you folks are going through this.) It curtailed many of my usual outdoor pursuits and required that I pivot to indoor exercise on the machines. I recognize that I am privileged in several ways: First, I don't work out of doors (or at all right now, as I'm on summer break); second, I have exercise machines in my own house; third, I have AC that filters the worst of the smoke, so I can use those machines.

And I know that for many folks, smoky air is a regular seasonal concern. I'm also aware that there must be other seasonal, personal, and/or health-and-safety concerns that prevent folks from going outdoors to exercise.

So what do you do, friends, when you cannot go outside to exercise? Do you have some surefire indoor activities that you might suggest for folks who are kept indoors for whatever reason? I'd love to hear your suggestions, if you're inclined to share.

And, of course, please do share how your week has gone.

Here's hoping the week ahead is clear for you, whatever "clear" means in your life.
