Since we can’t go to the gym during this stressful time here’s a list of my favorite at home workout apps.
- Fitbit
-
If you have a Fitbit you can challenge your friends, track steps, workouts, sleep patterns and so much more. I currently have the Fitbit Versa 2 but before I had the original Fitbit Flex and it works just as well but with less features.
- Runkeeper
-
My uncle showed me this free app for running and I will never use another app. I use this app to train for everything from a 5k to a half marathon. One of the features I like is the goal setting feature where you can set pretty much any goal you like, for example wanting to run four times a week. You can also connect it to your phone so it will automatically track walks or bike rides too. Just like with fitbit you can add friends on it.
- Sworkit
-
Sworkit is another free app and is perfect for when you wanna do a short workout. It offers cardio and strength workouts, and also yoga and stretching. You can choose the length of the workout, anywhere from 5-60 minutes. The nice thing about this app is you don’t need any equipment.
- Yoga with Adriene: Yoga Under 15 Minutes
-
After all your working out it is important to stretch! I love this 15 minute guided yoga video on Amazon Prime Video. There are multiple episodes so you can stretch different parts of the body. I’m not really a yoga person but this is just short enough to keep my attention on it.
