Everyone handles self-isolation differently, but many find it helpful to establish some sort of daily routine.

Turns out, household pets like dogs and cats aren't huge fans of giving their humans space to work out. So when pet owners attempt to do yoga, jump rope, or do push-ups at home, their animals keep interrupting.

People have recently started documenting their failed workouts on social media, and luckily for us, many have shared photos and videos of their furry gym buddies. Please enjoy, and always remember to check for pets before you squat.
