As the pandemic rages on, most gyms have largely transitioned to include online programs, many with live workout classes you can join on Zoom, but how can you get the most out of our virtual classes at home? Check out my 5 Virtual Fitness tips.
- Designated Space
This way you are setting more of an intention to actually do the workout. Put your weights, workout mat or any other equipment there and ready to go.
- Create Workout Mood Lighting
change the lighting to align with your workout. If working out in the evening, a light up Bluetooth speaker could help make the mood more tranquil, or even just turning off the overhead and flicking on a floor or desk lamp.
- Get Social
Invite a friend or family member to join in. Having someone you know in the Zoom room with you can help build accountability and motivation.
- Use a TV Instead of a Laptop
Instead of using your computer screen, opt for a television (or monitor) that might have a larger screen. This will give you more of an illusion that you are actually with the other people. Don’t strain your eyes and body by trying to do the class on your phone.
- Stick to a Schedule
All our classes can be done at the gym or at home. So if you’re time poor, just jump online and do it from home instead! Sticking to your timetable will guarantee that you don’t fall off the wagon.
