Our top home workout clubs to keep you active during lockdown

For a lot of us, keeping active and going to the gym is crucial for mental and physical wellbeing. Thankfully, there are a lot of services out there (both paid for and free) to help keep you active while you have to stay home. Here are a few of our personal favourites and ones that we can’t recommend highly enough!

Joe Wicks: The Body Coach

Joe has over 250 free workout videos that cater to all levels of fitness. Due to the closure of school and gyms across the country, Joe has taken it upon himself to become the nation’s P.E. teacher, holding his ‘P.E. with Joe’ live streams from Monday to Friday as a way to keep kids and parents active during their time at home . It’s great fun and a lot of our team tune in every morning at 9am, along with thousands of others, to get their kids ready for the day and make sure that they are still active during lockdown. Joe also has workouts that are for bigger kids (adults) on his YouTube channel. Make sure you give it a go, as it’s a great way to start the day!
