From the average person to professional athletes, everyone has been forced to get creative when it comes to working out during the global COVID-19 (coronavirus) pandemic, as people are social distancing and gyms and other workout spots closed.
Retired NFL linebacker James Harrison is doing push-ups with his kids on his back and cracking eggs with his biceps and forearm. Three-time Olympic gold medalist Ryan Murphy is doing pull-ups on a tree and pushing his car in neutral up a hill.
And tennis superstar Novak Djokovic is still trying to play a version of tennis — just indoors and with skillets.
The 32-year-old 17-time Grand Slam champ – whose most recent major victory was the 2020 Australian Open in early February before the tennis world was shutdown because of the coronavirus outbreak — used two chairs and what look like couch cushions to make a net and volley a little bit.
He wrote in the caption:
Competition never stops 💪🏼😂 #tennisathome🎾🏠
This is awfully impressive because if a regular person tried this, the skillet or ball might fly through the window, and the surrounding furniture would definitely be damaged. But the 32-year-old tennis player is far from regular in this area.
Additionally, he found a way to play another version of tennis with his kids…
He also hilarious tried to dress up like Captain Hook:
