Online exercises, suggestions please

[SleepQuest33]

Help!
I need to do more exercise. In the summer months I do some running, but in the winter I find it impossible due to to the dark days.
The gym is too expensive, and I am not good/motivated enough to exercise on my own.
I would love to find good online free videos that I could follow from home? I am looking for a mixture of cardio and strength. My tummy is growing by the day (more so since the menopause).
I usually eat a heathy balance diet but need to control my portions (December is always a write-off, I always overeat anyway!).
Any ideas would be welcome!
Thanks!

Caroline Girvan, there are so many to choose from & all free on YouTube.

Thank you so much for all those suggestions, I will look them up!

Monika fit is my favourite and I've tried loads

Well, it’s not free, but Jillian Michaels is the best I’ve found. It’s around £80 for an annual subscription and for that you get access to thousands of different workouts. Her mix of cardio & strength is excellent (there are programs on the app from 30 to 365 days which are a mix of both) and also programs for specific areas. I’ve tried so many others but I always come back to her, she’s my go to (and like op, I also run in the summer)

I find Caroline Girvan quite advanced and I'm not a beginner. Try to find her beginners videos. Otherwise I highly recommend Joe Wicks. He better paces his videos so you can catch your breath;)

I would second bodyfit by Amy she's really lovely and has a really good mix of workouts on her channel. She does daily workouts with a theme for a month so December has been holiday hiit and she's starting another one in January which is a mix of strength and cardio workouts.
She is American and sometimes can find some American workout women quite intense but she's very calm!

I love growingannanas, dreadful name but her workouts fit the bill and I like that there is no chit chat at all, she just does the workout, I also second Bodyfit by Amy if you prefer an instructor who is chatty, she is good but I wish she would just get on with it at times. Try this one from growingannanas

Sydney Cummings is completely amazing, not intimidating whatsoever and has adaptions for all levels. I adore her.

Bodyfit by Amy. I've been using her videos since before lockdown, she adapts for different abilities and is super easy to follow.

Another vote for Sydney Cummings, she uploads workouts daily, my go to for home workouts

Caroline Girvan. So many videos to follow and very motivational even though she says very little. Adore her, and there is a supportive Facebook group too.

Lucy Wyndham Read any day.

Another vote for Caroline Girvan!

oh goodness, so many suggestions! thank you very much. Will do my homework tomorrow and start asap! Can't wait to lose this weight.

Fitness blender on YouTube. Loads of different types of routines

Lucy Wyndham-Reeves (not sure how accurate that spelling is) - but she has some really good workouts to follow.

I use peloton - all classes not just bike. They have great strength, cardio, yoga, pilates, hiit, stretching, meditation, outdoor walking/running classes. I think you get a month free or maybe longer and then it’s £12 per month.

before that I used to love Sydney cummings and get fit with Rick

Fitness blender, the older videos with Kellie and Daniel. . A really good mix of strength and cardio workouts.

Hasfit also very good.

Joe Wicks.

I too, find Caroline Girvan advanced. She is good though.
