AfricaPress-Kenya:<\/strong> With numerous sporting events in the world and leagues either suspended or postponed and training facilities closed due to the coronavirus pandemic, professional athletes are finding it difficult to cope.<\/p>\n

From footballers to volleyballers, hockey and rugby players in their makeshift gymnasiums at home, Kenyan athletes are struggling to deal with the disruption to their training regime.<\/p>\n

But even with the uncertainty surrounding most of the seasons, the athletes have to maintain their fitness albeit under near-impossible conditions.<\/p>\n

While most of them have resorted to makeshift home gymnasiums and rigorous regimes methods to keep fit, others have gone digital thanks to fitness and wellness applications like Manyactive app<\/p>\n

According to Manyactive co-founder and fitness expert Evalyn Oloo, the introduction of online classes and live streams in the Kenyan market will help athletes to keep fit during the break.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s definitely a difficult time for fitness enthusiasts and athletes to stay fit during this Covid-19 pandemic. However, we should all take this opportunity to better ourselves by tapping into our inner self-drive and motivation,\u201d Oloo said.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere are many available resources to support sportsmen and women stay active safely in their spaces as they observe the social distancing rules. Due to the pandemic, Manyactive is offering free fitness classes online. So, let our athletes grab this opportunity and continue keeping fit from the comfort of their homes.\u201d<\/p>\n

We now take a look at some of the Kenyan athletes and how they are coping.<\/p>\n

Name: Lucy Njeri<\/strong><\/p>\n

Age: 22<\/p>\n

Sport: Football<\/p>\n

Club: Makolanders<\/p>\n

Position: Midfielder<\/p>\n

How are you coping?<\/p>\n

\u201cCoronavirus has of course disrupted the rhythm of football and we are now forced to do things we are not used to. I\u2019m also affected financially because with the league suspended , there is no way we can be paid match allowances.\u201d<\/p>\n

What are you doing to keep fit?<\/p>\n

\u201cWith limited movement right now, there is nothing else I can do at home rather than working out in privacy.\u201d<\/p>\n

Name: Samuel Onyango<\/strong><\/p>\n

Age: 27<\/p>\n

Sport: Football<\/p>\n

Club: Gor Mahia<\/p>\n

Position: Midfielder<\/p>\n

How are you coping?<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve been confined in my house since the league and training sessions were suspended. This isolation can make you sick both physically and mentally. It is really draining.\u201d<\/p>\n

What are you doing to keep fit?<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve just improvised my training activities. I normally go for morning runs then work with some jumps and stretch out before playing video games. But to be honest, working out without the ball is really boring.\u201d<\/p>\n

Name: Sharon Chepchumba<\/strong><\/p>\n

Age: 21<\/p>\n

Sport: Volleyball<\/p>\n

Club: KCB<\/p>\n

Position: Left attacker<\/p>\n

How are you coping with all the inconvenience?<\/p>\n

\u201cOf course the coronavirus outbreak has led to the postponement of major sporting events like the 2020 Tokyo Olympics Games, but we have to accept everything, move on and continue working hard. However, I think this is a blessing in disguise because it will give us more time to improve on our game and perfect some skills.<\/p>\n

What are you doing to keep fit?<\/p>\n

\u201cAs a professional player, I don\u2019t need to be supervised to maintain my fitness. With the little resources we have, we must try to be creative during these difficult times. Though space has been an issue, I\u2019ve improvised the facilities I have in my house to help me keep fit. I am also privileged to have a friend from America. We follow each other on Instagram and train together sometimes via social media.\u201d<\/p>\n

Name: Gilly Okumu<\/strong><\/p>\n

Age: 25<\/p>\n

Sport: Hockey<\/p>\n

Club: Strathmore Scorpions\/Eintracht Frankfurt-Germany<\/p>\n

Position: Attacking midfielder<\/p>\n

How are you coping with all the inconvenience?<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is extremely boring because there are no activities going on at the moment. I can\u2019t afford to train with my teammates and travel because everything has been postponed till further notice. The situation is unbearable.\u201d<\/p>\n

What are you doing to keep fit?<\/p>\n

\u201cReplicating the intensity of a match or a training ground session might be difficult right now, but that home workout can still make a difference. To maintain my fitness, I normally do a morning run every day and loading in the evening. Zumba and aerobics are now reserved for weekends.\u201d<\/p>\n

Name: Daniel Taabu<\/strong><\/p>\n

Age: 24<\/p>\n

Sport: Rugby<\/p>\n

Club: Mwamba<\/p>\n

Position: Winger<\/p>\n

How are you coping with all the inconveniences?<\/p>\n

\u201cThis is tough moment not only for Kenyans but the whole world. It is really saddening for an athlete to train focusing on an event only for it to be cancelled or suspended. But we all need to unite and fight the virus because this is global problem.\u201d<\/p>\n

What are you doing to keep fit?<\/p>\n

\u201cThe coach has given all of us training programmes to follow.\u201d<\/p>\n

Name: Mike Kibwage<\/strong><\/p>\n

Age: 22<\/p>\n

Sport: Football<\/p>\n

Club: KCB<\/p>\n

Position: Defender<\/p>\n

How are you coping?<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019m slowly adjusting to my new lifestyle of staying indoors. It\u2019s a bit difficult and boring but I just have to deal with the situation. Right now our health is more important than football.\u201d<\/p>\n

What are you doing to keep fit?<\/p>\n

\u201cI train individually at home and sometimes watch replays of our past games. But this is the time to be creative and improvise your training. I must stay fit because nobody knows when the league will resume.\u201d<\/p>\n

Age: 30<\/p>\n

Sport: Volleyball<\/p>\n

Club: Kenya Prisons<\/p>\n

Position: Libero<\/p>\n

How are you coping with all the inconveniences?<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s unfortunate that major sporting events in the world and leagues have been suspended owing to coronavirus outbreak. We were all looking forward to the 2020 Tokyo Olympics Games, but we now need to keep the faith and see what will happen next year.\u201d<\/p>\n

What are you doing to keep fit?<\/p>\n

\u201cI train daily in the morning and evening at home. I do intensity runs mostly in the morning and then do the light exercises in the evening.\u201d<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Name: Janet \u2018Shabesh\u2019 Okello.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Age: 27<\/p>\n

Sport: Rugby<\/p>\n

Club: Mwamba<\/p>\n

Position: Scrumhalf<\/p>\n

How are you coping with all the inconvenience?<\/p>\n

\u201cNobody saw this global shut-down by coronavirus coming. It has disrupted most of the plans that we had this season. It is our hope and prayer that the virus will be contained as soon as possible. We all want to go back to our normal life. It is really boring and frustrating when you are prevented to do something you love.\u201d<\/p>\n

What are you doing to keep fit?<\/p>\n

\u201cWith all the training facilities closed, we have been given tailored fitness programmes by the strength and conditioning coach that is helping us to keep our levels of physical condition.\u00a0 I also do some daily morning runs around the estate.\u201d<\/p>\n

How are you coping with all the inconvenience?<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is a difficult situation here in Tunisia. Both the league and training sessions have been suspended until further notice. Doing things you are not used to is not easy, but I\u2019m trying.\u201d<\/p>\n

What are you doing to keep fit?<\/p>\n

\u201cI have been forced to change my training schedule by\u00a0keeping fit at home.\u201d<\/p>\n
