Workout Wednesday - Three of our favorite workout websites
Happy Wednesday! If you’re looking for a new workout routine, but you don’t want to be joining a gym or studio because of your life on the road, these three websites are worth checking out.
YogaGlo is a website where you can customize your own private yoga and meditation classes taught by certified yoga instructors. Whether you have five minutes or two hours to dedicate to a yoga sesh – you can select not only your time frame, but your level of expertise, and any adjustments due to injuries. They offer a 15-day free trial. However, their membership fees are still very affordable compared to the cost of a yoga studio. Plus, you can choose whenever and wherever you wish to take your class.
Ballet Beautiful is designed to sculpt sleek, lean, and toned muscles as well as improve flexibility and posture. If this isn’t an ideal model workout, we don’t know what is! Developed by Mary Helen Bowers, who after training Natalie Portman for her role in the Black Swan has been coveted by countless A-list celebs and supermodels, including Miranda Kerr and Karlie Kloss. But, don’t worry; you don’t have to be a dancer or gymnast to be able to follow Bowers’ instructions. Ballet Beautiful is for everyone, and you can also customize her workouts to suit your ability and needs.
