(Part 2 of 4) Today on "Quarantine With Courtney", Courtney Robb tells us about the new Netflix docuseries "The Tiger King".

And in "Get Fit" Beth Jeffers and Whitney Brown of the Fitness Factor demonstrate simple exercises you perform in your own home.

Time at home has many of us sampling new tv shows, trying new recipes, and even listening to new music or podcasts.

We've asked weekend sport anchor courtney robb what she recommends.

Here's quarantine with courtney.

040120-pkg good morning all you cool cats and kittens and welcome to the quarantine.

If you understood that reference, then you already know what we're talking about today.

The tiger king is a 7 part docu-series on netflix that documents the life of joe exotic, joe maldenodo, a man in oklahoma who owns a tiger zoo.

The docu-series more so goes into detail on a fierce rivalry between joe exotic and a woman in florida named carol baskin who owns a tiger sanctuary.

As you can imagine this is a huge rivalry between someone who says they have a tiger zoo versus someone who says they have a tiger sanctuary.

There are a lot more twists and turns that goes into the story along the way which is summed up in the title of the docu-series - the tiger king; mayhem, murder and madness.

Tiger king has 5 out of 5 stars on netflix so you know its gotta be pretty good.

In quarantine, we rate things on a scale of 1 to 5 naps.

Five naps obviously being the best thing you can waste your time on.

The tiger king is getting 4 out of 5 naps.

I think it was over- hyped a little bit on social media but all in all super interesting.

If you are looking to escape reality for a few hours, then yes.

Definitely go and watch this show because again, you're not going to believe what you're watching.

It's that insane.

This show is definitely not for everyone.

Parental guidance is recommended because this show does have a lot of vulgarity so watch at your own risk.

If you do end up watching the show, make sure you tweet at me and let me know exactly what you think.

In addition if you have any recommendations of what people should be doing during their quarantine to pass the time, make sure you go ahead and let me know.

I'll see you back here in the quarantine next time.

If you feel the need to move - and all of us should try a little exercise everyday, whitney brown and beth jeffers from the fitness factor have come with a few workouts that we can all do at home.

Take a look.

Whitney brown: hello and welcome to get fit.

I'm whitney brown here with beth jeffers at the fitness factor, and we're bringing you a stretch series for all levels.

No matter your level, this is a great stretch series for you to start your day or end your day or in your workout even.

It's going to be mostly seated and like i said, it's for all levels.

So let's get to it.

Beth jeffers: okay, let's start by stretching the calf, leaning forward, bending that front knee.

Nice, tall, back.

Good.

Okay.

That's your calf.

You want to hold these between 20 and 30 seconds.

Slide in and do a quad stretch by matching your knees, taking that hand.

Think about pushing that foot into that hand, stretching the quad, and then let's slip the leg out and go into an inner thigh stretch by leaning over to one side.

Obviously, you're going to do both legs.

Okay?

Beth jeffers: let's go ahead and slip the chair around and let's move into what's called a figure four stretch.

Sliding that leg into a four position.

Inhaling, exhaling with a flat back, leaning forward, filling that hip open up.

Okay?

On these, you will want to hold 20 to 30 seconds.

Come back up.

The leg out.

Going into a hamstring stretch.

Same thing, reaching down, being careful not to come off the chair.

Lead with that chest and come up.

Now, this is a little more dynamic, a reach and rotate.

So you're going to reach across and then rotate around.

Notice she's following her hand, reaching and rotating.

Good job, whitney.

Beth jeffers: okay, let's go into a side bend.

Same thing.

More dynamic on the dynamic ones.

You're going to want to go about five times on each side.

Good.

Okay, and now let's do a chest move, arms out and open.

Good, and lift up and down.

Lifting up and down, that's a great chest stretch.

Okay, moving into a tricep stretch.

Slide that arm down the back.

Grab that elbow here and a little pressure from into the hand stretching up that tricep right here.

Sliding right into a shoulder stretch.

Nice, tall back.

Take the arm across.

A little pressure thesure there.

Stretching out that shoulder.

Okay?

Beth jeffers: coming back to a dynamic which you do five of these line on your lap, and then opening up breathing as you do, lying flat, reaching, good and up.

Okay.

The next one is you're going to want to hug a tree, whitney pulling that naval in.

Now, just open right in.

Good, breathing as you go and stay here.

Last one is for the neck, turning side.

Come back..

Hi.

Come back to the center and drop the chin to the chest slowly.

And lastly, we encourage everyone to take a couple seconds just to take your hands to prayer or just relax and maybe take five, three to five minutes, meditate, breathing, inhaling for three seconds, an excellent first three seconds and just relax.

Beth jeffers: we can get through this time.

Whitney brown: right.

Beth jeffers: keep loose, keep striking.
