#WORKOUTATHOME – Online fitness programs for home

The gym is closed, your sports club is shut down, sporting events are postponed – now what?

As is often the case in life, there is a solution: online home fitness programs – THE alternative to keep your body in top shape or to start getting it ready for summer! In other words: There are no excuses!

Need a motivational boost?
Because sports can do so much more than bikini figure:

With sports you stay healthy & strengthen your immune system

Not only your bikini figure will be grateful, but also your immune system is strengthened by sports, kept healthy in the long term and supports you actively in any illness!

Studies looking at the effect of sport and exercise on the immune system show that the cell count of white blood cells, especially fast defense cells such as phagocytes that destroy foreign pathogens and antibodies, increases after physical exercise. The release of defense substances thus increases in the immune system and other systems involved in the immune system, such as the spleen and lymph nodes, are better supplied with blood and their performance is thus increased.

Those who exercise regularly also improve their cardiovascular function. This is because physical exertion requires more energy and oxygen, so the heart beats more frequently and pumps more blood to the body, exercising the heart muscle. This then in turn has a preventive effect and reduces the risk of sudden cardiac death in people with high blood pressure and other heart problems! And when the heart is happy, so are we!

Sport brings good mood

Sports is also a real mood booster & says any camp fever the fight. Scientific studies confirm that the body releases messenger substances during physical exertion, including endorphins, serotonin and dopamine. While endorphins primarily have a pain-relieving effect, making it easier for us to endure stress, serotonin and dopamine are also known as happiness hormones.
At the same time, sports also reduce the release of stress hormones, especially cortisol. In other words: sports make you happy and relaxed!

Convinced? Well then – let’s go!
We’ve picked out our top 7 online fitness programs for you to do at home that are not only super effective, but also a lot of fun! Another plus – all home workouts are free! There really can be no more excuses now! 😉
