The gym is closed, the fridge is always nearby - it's easy to get out of shape when you're working from home. Yet exercise is incredibly important for our health and well-being.
When we exert ourselves physically, our body produces more immune cells and our defenses are strengthened. Our Gut is also stimulated by exercise. Too much sluggish sitting, on the other hand, can lead to bloating or constipation. Even a short walk is good for body and mind.
You can get even more tips for your fitness this week from her1-team.
1st Xu (founder) - Live Online Trainings via Urban Sports Club
"I love the new Live Online Courses from Urban Sports Club. It allows me to stream my regular sports classes with my favorite trainers and get some normalcy at home. In addition, Urban Sports Club is giving 80% of their revenue to their partner studios, which have been closed for a few weeks."
My tip: browse through the variety and pay a virtual visit to a studio in another city.
2. David (Marketing) - HIIT workouts via Zoom
"We all know how important it is to stay at home at the moment. I only leave the apartment to go jogging along the canal in the morning. That gives me energy for the whole day! In the evening, I usually do a HIIT workout in front of the computer with one of my favorite trainers."
My tip: The virtual workouts from @emireerose via Zoom. Work out guaranteed!
3. Maritta (product) - Yoga via Youtube
"I start my day with half an hour of yoga. Yoga helps me to wake up my body and clear my head. The great thing about practising at home is that I can decide for myself every morning whether I want to practise meditation or headstand."
My tip: The YouTube channels of Fightmaster Yoga and Cat Meffan - Both teachers offer yoga for all levels.
