At Home Workout Ideas

I hope this post finds everyone healthy and well especially during this trying time. I know that I for one am ready for some normalcy back in my life…I miss my routine of being able to drive to work, go to the gym, and go out to eat with my loved ones. I personally know that I’ve been struggling to make sure that I stay active so I’d like to take some time to chat about what our options are at this point to continue to stay active during this season of our lives.

If you’re interested in streaming a workout, you’ll want to check out any (or all) of the following:

1.       305 Fitness – This option offers classes such as meditation, cardio dance blast, and a booty-burning session

2.       Forward__Space – This option hosts digital dance parties on Instagram daily at 2:05pm EST.

3.       Peloton – This option has live and on-demand classes for your bike, treadmill, and yoga, meditation, stretching, and boot camp classes. Right now they are offering a 90-day free trial for new users.

4.       Daily Burn – This option offers introduction classes, barre, yoga, kickboxing, and HIIT workouts. They are currently offering a 30-day free trial for new members.

5.       Yoga With Adriene – This is a series of workouts available on YouTube for yoga workouts.

6.       Pop Sugar Active – This option various at home classes including barre and strength training exercises.

If you’re interested in other options outside of streaming:

1.       Go for a walk in your neighborhood or a local park, just remember to keep your social distance.

2.       Utilize this time to get some work done in your yard thus allowing you to get some good ole’ vitamin D and get a workout in that may not feel like a real workout to you and being to then be able to cross some items off your to-do list.

Tips to keep in mind:

1.       Give yourself some grace, if you are feeling like you’re too overwhelmed emotionally then take a rest day, or try a yoga class with meditation. All we can do right now is just take things one day at a time.

2.       Remember to continuously stretch. A lot of us are doing more sitting than we normally do thus why we need to stretch out our muscles to refrain from being in any type of pain.

I think that one of the best things that we can do for ourselves right now is to care for our bodies by remaining active and I hope that this can help you achieve just that.

Cheers to your health,

Chelsea
