  • QUIZ: What Type of TV Watcher Are You?

    Are you the type that stands in front of the TV while screaming frantically? Or do you only watch shows long after everyone has slept? This quiz knows the answer.

  • 6 Exercises You Can Do At the Gym and in Everyday Life

    The goal this year is to step up, and that includes fitness. Not everybody likes going to the gym. Personally, we think people who go to the gym every day have their lives all sorted out. If you’re like the rest of us that don’t have the strength or time to step into that sweat dungeon, here are five exercises you can do at the gym and also in your everyday life.

    Squats 

    Squats can easily be done anytime and anywhere. You can squat while cooking, carrying grocery bags, doing your next work task (depending on what it is) while watching TV etc. 

    Jumping Jacks 

    If you want to burn a lot of calories quickly, do jumping jacks. You don’t even have to do too many With about 200 jumping jacks, you’re good. Now imagine having to leave your house for something you can do in the comfort of your living room. This also applies to jump rope exercises. 

    Dance 

    You can never go wrong with dancing. Out of your 1-hour lunch break, take 20 minutes to play loud music and dance your heart out. Do you know how many calories you can burn by doing leg work alone? The elliptical can never compare. 

    Walk

    You can choose to walk around your compound or take a walk around your neighbourhood if you have the time. it’s definitely more interesting and fascinating than walking on a basic ass treadmill. 

    Climb Stairs 

    No stair master? No problem. if you set aside just 10-15 minutes of your day to go up and down any flight of steps, you can burn more than 100 calories. Taking the stairs is a great aerobic exercise, not to mention, it’s free. No gym membership fee whatsoever.

     

    Sit Down 

    Working out is not a must, please. Some of us are okay with our lazy selves, we’d rather just wake up, go to the couch, sit down and watch some TV.

    If there are people out there like us, (which we know there are), thankfully, DStv has got you covered this month. With the StepUp Boost offer, both active and disconnected subscribers can enjoy the opportunity to pay less to enjoy an exciting lineup of world-class quality entertainment.

  • The Case Of Twitter Nigeria Vs Zee World And Telemundo

    Foreign TV drama channels are hot these days and the viewers can’t seem to get enough.

    From Telemundo to Zee World and K-Drama.

    Some people feel otherwise and can’t stand the channels at all.

    Someone got bold and requested the removal of the Telemundo and Zee World channels from his DSTV bouquet via their Twitter account.

    And when he explained why he really wanted the removal…

    They had this to say..

    There were reactions from Nigerian twitter..

    https://twitter.com/Josh__IK/status/685088016814223361

    Some begged to disagree.

    The Zee World lovers weren’t having any of it.

    Some clamoured for sports-inclined bouquet.

    People who really hate Zee World joined in the conversation.

    What do you think?

  • AC Milan

    They might not be hot now, but they were blazing back in the day. Everyone’s favourite names once wore the AC jersey. Ronaldinho, Kaka, Seedorf, everybody.

    Liverpool

    They were what Man City currently thinks they are. They were clearing league titles at the end of every season. It was glorious.

    Man Utd

    Almost every Nigerian kid had a Manchester United phase. It’s how we have so many staunch Ronaldo fans today. You either grow out of it, or you’re stuck with them for life.

    Arsenal

    It’s hard to blame Arsenal fans for sticking too long with a club that’s shown them nothing but shege. Once upon a time, they were the hottest thing around. Don’t believe us? Just search “Thierry Henry” on YouTube.

    Inter Milan

    They were AC Milan’s less feisty rival. Fans of the two Milans had a similar dynamic to what Chelsea and Arsenal fans have today.

    Barcelona

    This is where we all discovered Messi and fell in love with football’s greatest player ever.

    Chelsea

    Was Chelsea ever great? Of course, they were. Just look at their 2007 lineup.


    Forget flashbacks for a second. We have the FA Cup Finals coming up this weekend. Are you ready for it? If you are, then we’re sure you already have your DSTV subscription set for the match. If you haven’t, fix up! It only costs as low as ₦‎3,500.
