lockdown movements

I'm curious what everyone's physical practices are looking like if you're mostly on lockdown due to COVID? here, it's finally gotten warm enough to be outside comfortably for activities other than running, so I've been trying to do some gymnastics-type training in the park and am considering ordering a slackline and some rings that I could hang from a tree branch.

The downside is that I really don't like people watching me. :P

We're on 'going out for exercise is okay'. We've been doing a walk around 'the block' (~2.8 km) most days. Interestingly, my weight hasn't budged noticeably on the scale, but my belt has tightened two notches. I'm getting significantly faster (I'm the rate limiting human on our walks), having gone from 12'30" to just under 11'30" per km in the three weeks or so we've been doing this.

We have the advantage on that that we are having a warm autumn/late change in weather, so it has been pleasant to be out. If we actually get rain, I'm not sure how it will change.

I also dragged out the roller skates (quads) the other day. What I need now is somewhere to use them.
