Exercise on TV/Netflix/Amazon

[DelphiniumBlue]

Wanting to start exercising again, and realised I don't have a DVD player anymore to play exercise programmes!
Are there any on TV or Netflix/Amazon that I could try? I used to do Mr Motivator, thinking something along those lines, but happy to do pilates, dance, anything really.
How do you guys exercise at home?

No one?

There are loads on YouTube. Can you get YouTube? Definately recommend fitness blender and the jillian Michaels ones.

I bought the 30 day shred (Jillian Michaels) on Amazon so I can watch it on our TV or on my iPad

I do the 30 day shred on YouTube even though I've got it on old style DVD as it is quicker to get started.

Thanks for your replies. I can't get YouTube on the TV, don't have a laptop to link up .
The Amazon 30 day shred is a possibility, will give that a go.
Any other suggestions?

How do you watch amazon/Netflix on your tv but not you tube?

Andnowitsseven,I don't know really. We have a digibox, and get Amazon and Netflix using You view ( I think!) Are you saying I should also have a YouTube option there? Or that there's something I could do to be able to get Youtube on the TV? Cos that would be brilliant! Could have Just Dance, which I used to love!

It's unusual not to have access to YouTube if you can watch Netflix but I can see you view doesn't feature you tube.
If you could stretch to £35 for an Amazon Fire stick you can watch you tube on tv or a second hand wii even cheaper.

I used to have bt tv and could watch Netflix and catch up tv but not YouTube, so I think it's pretty standard with certain types of tv

Yes I also have BT tv and there isn't an app/player for you tube

You could pay £30 or whatever it is for an Amazon firestick and that gets you youtube. That's what I did and I do various yoga videos and kettlebell workouts.

And afaik you can't get youtube on the old wii anymore. I can't and my brother said that they weren't updsting the software on the old wii and everything like that went.

Just thought you can pick up now Tv boxes up for £10 on eBay/ Facebook to use you tube on.

Will look at fire stick, thanks for that info.
Is a TV box the same as a digibox?

Depending on what phone you have, you might be able to cast YouTube to your TV. Turn TV on, to to YouTube on your phone and see if there's a small square icon top right when viewing a video. If you click it it will say "cast to"and then a weird name - mine is roku2568004422 and I have no idea how it got the name.

There is a slight chance you might end up casting to your neighbours, so choose the video carefully.

The icon is square with 4 concentric semi circles on the bottom left

Thanks lola, will give it a go!

We have a Roku box (about £35) which means you can watch Netflix, Youtube, Amazon but most importantly Google Movies. So anything you buy through Google Play you can watch on your telly. You can also cast your phone, although (for me anyway) the sync is slightly out, so not so good for exercise.

I also do "Google Rewards" which gives you Google Play credit for answering very short surveys. I've so far bought 2 lots of exercise (Davina 15 and 30 Day Shred), Line of Duty, a Hairy Bikers cookery book - and still have £13 credit left. And all for free!
