Sport in Corona times: what toilet paper can still be used for

German toilet paper hamsters during the corona virus pandemic. But the material cannot only be used as a hygiene product.

• Germans are increasingly hamstering toilet paper during the coronavirus pandemic.
• The material can also be used to strengthen your own muscles.
• A sports club from the district of Kassel has published a video with various exercises.

Three layers, four layers or even five layers? Nothing is more emblematic of hamster purchases during the coronavirus pandemic than toilet paper. TSV Immenhausen in the district of Kassel is now taking up the topic on its Instagram channel: “Training fails everywhere, but do you have enough toilet paper at home? Then use it as training equipment, ”says the club.

Exercise during coronavirus pandemic in the Kassel district: Use toilet paper for stronger muscles

In a short video clip, TSV branch manager and HNA fitness coach Kristoffer Koch shows, among other things, pushups for the chest muscles and side jumps for the leg muscles - all of course using toilet paper. "I recently saw a similar video on the Internet and thought that it would be useful to have something for at home in the current sports-free period," says the 29-year-old. Of course, all with a wink in the age of the coroan virus pandemic.
