It is almost three months of the
Movement Control Order (MCO)
in Malaysia, and we have seen
our share of the bad and the good
that should’ve convinced all of us to
be staying at home by now. But no one
can deny it because the struggle is real,
and we are all trying our best to stay put
without going bored.
This naturally means that the funny
part of the internet has come out
to play with all the free time we have
now. Since the hashtag #stayathome
is now trending, Malaysians are doing
while staying at home for much needed
chuckles that prove that we are truly all
in this together. Staying in cooped up
at home can be taxing and a little tiresome.
But in this period of a pandemic,
it is also necessary. Here are some
things that Malaysian people were pursued
during this Movement Control
Order.
While it isn’t very pleasant being
forced to stay indoors, many of us
can consider ourselves lucky that we
are ‘trapped’ comfortably in our own
homes. And as we idle about the house
with not much to do, we suddenly find
that we have been handed ‘too’ much
time. With more time in our hands,
there are some productive things we
can do while on MCO.
Firstly, is workout from home.
Health is important but remember
not to go outside to jog or doing any
outdoor activities. In all seriousness,
basic health routines do not require too
much. A quick search on Youtube and
Google is to get feasible workout ideas
which we can do at home, ranging
from heart-pumping High-intensity
Interval Training (HIIT) to milder,
less vigorous exercise. They also use
everyday items to add weights to your
workout, including woks, detergent
bottles, mops, and packs of rice.
