Move, Shake, Drop: The Fitness Apps & At Home Workouts I’m Loving

Looking for a killer workout routine while in quarantine?

In addition to getting my cardio in while walking Jake or riding my Peloton (PS Peloton bike review coming soon), I’ve also been loving a few ‘on-demand’ options that are easy to use from the comfort of my living room.

THE FITNESS APPS & AT HOME WORKOUTS I’M LOVING:

Peloton on-demand. No bike or tread required! Peloton is offering their on-demand app for the steep cost of $0 for 90 days! Yup, completely free. What kind of workouts are on the app? Yoga, meditation, body-weight strength, cardio dance parties, killer ab-blasters, and even guided running/ walking routines. What workouts do you do & who are your favorite instructors? I’m currently loving Cody Rigsby’s 5 min core strength from January 6th, 20 min dance cardio with Emma Lovewell & Aly Love from March 5th, and Aditi Shah’s 10 min desk yoga from March 10th.

305 at home. Do you love to dance? Do love live DJs? Do you love sweating your booty off? If so, then this workout is for you! 305 Fitness is a high-energy dance cardio workout that’s rooted to the beat of Miami and welcomes all who want to get their groove on. The studio is streaming live & on-demand parties via their YouTube channel, TikTok & other online platforms.

Orangetheory app. Missing your home studio or curious about trying a class for yourself? Orangetheory Fitness has you covered with a daily at home ‘workout of the day’ uploaded via their app and website. What kind of workout is it? Similar to their in-person format, every workout varies by categories of ESP [endurance, strength, power] and focuses on one section of the body at a time: arms, legs, core. Do I need to be a member or have any equipment to participate? No and no! All are welcomed & the best part is that everyday household items can be incorporated if needed.

LagreeNY at home. Local Queens studio LagreeNY is offering a unique at home experience to help keep toned & help support their instructors! This resistance strength-training workout is no joke so be prepare to SHAKE, but in a good way! Although the in-studio class works off of a Megaformer machine, they’re bringing their moves to the mat for the foreseeable future. Classes are $12 payable via Zelle (info@lagreeny.com) or Venmo (@laurie-benenati) Please contact Laurie Benenati via Instagram for additional schedule and sign-up information.

Break out the biker shorts, crop-tops & scrunchies!
