As the gyms are closed again, and the weather is pretty uninspirational for running, I need some ideas for exercising indoors (especially since I've gained at least 1/2 stone over Xmas!!!)

I enjoy doing weights at the gym mostly, have some kettlebells and looking at getting dumbbells in a heavier weight.

What I need is ideas / inspo for other workouts. Was thinking Pilates or Yoga but no idea where to start with the raft of stuff available on YouTube!

Can anyone recommend any good classes / workouts to watch? Or any other ideas of what I can do?

Another vote for Les Mills on Demand!

Les Mills are good

There is a series of workouts on YouTube called body combat invincible and they have profession from shorter vids of ten mins up to a full class. I recommend those.

For yoga on YouTube try the channel ‘Yoga with Adriane’ her videos are really accessible and in the first lockdown I went from never having done yoga before to following her 30 day programmes and practicing 5 times a week.

She also releases a 30 day yoga journey for each month with a video a day which I like as I just do the next one on the list rather than picking a video for myself!

Les Mills on Demand has all the classes I normally do at the gym. Loads of workouts, excellent value for the price. Think you can get a free trial.

Skipping rope gives you the cardio of running whilst being just on one spot.

Search on here for the Les Mills on demand threads and one had a free two month trial. It gives access to lots of different workouts so you’ll never be bored and quite a few use your weights. It’s great fun.

Fitness Blender have hundreds of free workouts. They are well taught and detailed with instruction so you avoid injury.
