- Hey guys, it's Kayline, also known as The Klean Fitt,
and during this unexpected quarantine season,
I decided to try another challenge.
So being that we are stuck at home, I've been trying to find
certain ways to keep myself active, motivated,
keep my body warm, and it's kinda hard
when you don't have the right equipment.
So unfortunately, I looked on Amazon,
tried to find some dumbbells, some weights, kettlebells,
and because all of you guys are on the same wave,
they're sold out.
So, with that being said,
that's not gonna stop me from being active though.
My goal is to find as many household items as I can
to actually get a decent workout in.
Every single day for a week I'm gonna try
and find something in the house that I can use,
and ideally I'm gonna find some items, tools, whatever,
that you also may have as well
so that we can do this together.
So for day one, I ended up using my couch.
I'm literally on it 24/7, so I thought, why not,
it's available, it's heavy enough
so that I can actually get something really good going.
(upbeat music)
Make sure to bend your knees at a 30 degree angle,
lift your chest up, and straighten your lower back
to avoid injury.
Lying on the floor with your arms at your sides,
you're going to use one foot to hoist your hips
and squeeze your glutes.
For the leg press, you're going to push the platform
using your heels and forefoot to extend and retract.
Not your ideal bench press, but inhale as you lift,
then exhale while you lower back down slowly.
Shut up!
Pick it up.
- You get it.
- Pick it up!
It's day two, typical cleaning day at my house.
Gonna use this handy dandy tool right here
to go ahead and get the job done,
and maybe we can get a workout in as well.
(upbeat music)
All right, let's hope I don't break something doing this.
(groans)
Lord,
♪ Help me ♪
♪ Jesus ♪
All right, okay, okay!
This is pretty hefty, okay.
(whistling)
(upbeat music)
Are you ready?
- Am I ready for what?
- We are gonna be doing workouts with out vacuums.
It's day two. - That's why you told me
to take the vacuum outta my closet?
- Yes.
I need you to be in the same position.
- I hate you.
(Kayline laughs)
- So day three was a laundry day,
and I was literally dreading it
'cause I knew I had so much laundry to do,
but it ended up being this hefty, hefty weight
that I used for my walking lunges.
My brother was also in his room all day,
so I called him down and I was like,
"You're gonna help me with this laundry."
No, come try it! - Nah.
- Come try it!
Make sure you're stepping in between.
- Oh, oops.
- And then I had him run up and down the stairs,
and it was so funny because he was like, "Enough is enough!"
Faster!
- Man, I can't see the damn stairs.
- Up again!
- This the last one.
- What do you mean that's the last one?
That's not the last one!
- I'm not coming back down.
- One more!
But then it dawned on me that I should make this
a family occasion, cause everybody needs
to be active in this house.
- All right that's good.
- Oh my God, okay.
- So you have more strength than you thought.
- I do!
Jesus, okay.
Wait, you do it.
Okay, so you can clearly do more than me.
Okay, all right, stop showing off, it's fine.
Okay dad!
Jesus, you're gonna break them!
So on day four I ended up finding something so ancient.
So I just snuck back into the forbidden land,
known as my parent's room, and I realized that my dad has,
he has a whole boom box.
But I knew that stereos were heavy because you would see,
back in the day they would hold them on their shoulders
like uh, uh, doing it, you know, and I was like
I know that they were getting a workout every time
they wanted to pick up that stereo and look cute.
So I'm gonna do three sets of 10,
real quick before they even notice
'cause they're very distracted and then
I'm just gonna sneak right back out
like a thief in the night.
What is that song?
It's like something mister roboto.
(vocalizing)
(dramatic tones)
- I know you think this is funny
and probably wanna put it out there, stop it.
(upbeat music)
- So today I'm gonna be helping my mom cook.
I'm gonna be your little sous chef mom, are you excited?
- Looking forward to it Kay.
- So we're gonna be making, what are we making?
It's honey,
- Slow cooker honey garlic chicken with vegetables.
- Doesn't that sound so good?
I'm so excited to eat that.
Okay, so like this?
(knife chopping)
That's all I have.
And so she was a little irritated, and she was like
"this is not what I signed up for."
- How about you leave them alone
and I'll do them the way I actually want them.
(sad music)
- Then what am I supposed to do?
- It's okay, go get the crock pot please.
(Kay screams)
- I'm just gonna fill it with some oranges or something.
- What are you doing?
- I'm trying to make it heavier.
Oh yeah, that's a real workout.
(upbeat music)
So you're gonna bend forward and lift.
Squat and pass.
Okay.
So squat. - Squat.
- Pass.
- Squat and pass. - Squat and pass.
(laughs)
- So the pros are, one, I got to use my creativity
to even find items to work out with.
I know that sometimes it's as easy as getting a dumbbell,
getting a jump rope, etc, etc, but when you don't have that,
you have to use your brain to try and figure out
what can I use instead.
So I really enjoyed using my creativity to find items.
Number two, it was cost efficient.
I literally spend no money.
No money.
I still have money in my wallet.
And number three, I got to spend time with my family.
A lot of the times when you're secluded,
when you're in a quarantine, you get used to being
by yourself, being in your room, or being in your safe space
and not communicating with everybody else in the house.
So this was an opportunity for me to not only get them
to enjoy something that I enjoy,
but also for us to have a cute little moment.
One of the challenges was that it was very difficult
to find the items initially, I was like, "what do I use?
"a candlestick?"
I'm not sure.
But then when I actually sat down and thought about it
and really explored around my house,
I ended up finding really good appliances to use.
The second challenge that I faced was that unfortunately
depending on the item or the appliance that I used,
it definitely limited the type of workouts I could do.
So a lot of the workouts were very focused,
or heavily focused on legs.
And so now my legs are really sore.
But we did find some that were for arms as well,
but I didn't get to to any abs.
So I would have loved to be able to incorporate abs.
And maybe I'll be able to try and find something eventually,
like maybe a towel or something,
but I didn't get to do that in this challenge.
Anyways I'd love to know what you guys are doing
to stay active in the comments below,
until next time stay clean and stay safe.
Bye guys, bye!
