If the last few years have taught us anything, it’s that adapting to a new normal is essential for both our physical and mental well-being. Almost every individual worldwide had to experience being stuck at home and in the beginning, healthy eating, exercise and self-care were replaced by stress and anxiety.
A new focus
One thing that did emerge as the pandemic wore on was an ingenuity that was fuelled by boredom and circumstance. There was an influx of new and creative recipes being baked, hobbies being enjoyed and even a rise in social media gurus teaching us how to navigate life indoors.
One of the biggest niches to see change was fitness at home and while things have largely returned to normal, having the ability to work out in peace and comfort is certainly still at the forefront of a lot of people’s minds.
An up-and-coming new fitness program, Fit at Home, has stepped into the fray to offer individuals across the UK an innovative way to maintain their fitness goals without having to go further than their own living room.
How does Fit at Home work?
You can use this app on demand from any smart TV, laptop, tablet, or smartphone for 24/7 access to over 500 workout videos that cover a host of fitness needs. These include work outs from Pilates to pregnancy.
All you’ll need to do is select a price plan, create an account and take advantage of all the features of the app, including access to a personal trainer, a text message/push notification reminder service, a live calorie counter, a BMI calculator, food guides and more.
Once set up, make sure you have enough space to perform the workouts you’re interested in and check out their special requirements. The app has been designed so that workouts won’t need additional equipment, but it is often advised for maximum results.
The benefits of using Fit at Home
The app allows you to connect with professional personal trainers skilled in different fields, such as bodyweight training, Pilates, meditation, abdominal training, dumbbell training and pregnancy fitness (with more to come). There are even specialist classes designed just for kids, so you can switch on your TV and be safe in the knowledge that they’re doing more than just sitting around.
Additional benefits include:
- At-home workouts to suit your needs at any time of the day (or night)
- Ongoing support
