Athletes Share Home Workout Ideas With Olympic Channel

The Coronavirus pandemic is taking its toll on sport with a number of events suspended or cancelled as the world tries to bring the outbreak under control.

Many countries are now in lockdown, with people staying in their homes to avoid contracting or sharing the COVID-19 illness.

You can watch Tongan viral sensation Pita Taufatofua giving his daily workouts exclusively to Olympic Channel, right here.

And here's our pick of the other home workout videos that athletes and Olympians have been creating to help keep us all fit.

As a modern pentathlete, she has five different disciplines to train for, making her home workouts slightly more varied and different.

Here's what she has to share.

The members of the USA's artistic swimming team are still managing to get their group home workouts in... via video call!
