It is possible to keep active even from the comforts of home. Below, find five local gyms which are offering free workout classes on IGTV to give you a taste of their typical fitness programmes. But don’t forget to support these studios by signing up for their exclusive virtual lessons or in-studio classes, if they are still open.
Barre Lab
Since Singapore’s circuit breaker period last year, fitness studio Barre Lab has been regularly teaching short and simple online classes via Instagram’s IGTV. Recent workout lessons include the 10-min Mindful Warm Up, as well as the 10-min Upper Body Workout with their Co-founder Jasmine Chong. Need tips on typical barre exercises or barre terms? Just scroll their feed for helpful tutorials like Common Ballet Terms and Barre 101.
Barry’s Singapore
No one does HIIT like the famed Barry’s Bootcamp, and if you’d like to work up a sweat in your own home, then check out plenty of workout videos on the Barry’s Singapore Instagram page. Follow along intense, signature classes like Arms & Abs, or Full Body which focuses on upper or lower body. You can even stream these classes back-to-back for a full one-hour workout that will have you feelin’ the burn.
Crubox Singapore
Working out alone can be uninspiring, and frankly, boring. So invite a friend over for some boxing-influenced HIIT fun by attempting Crubox Singapore’s Cru At Home IGTV series. Just be prepared to plank, jump squat and lunge your butt off.
Off Duty Pilates
Besides offering virtual pilates classes, Off Duty Pilates is also bringing locals easy access to its workout regimen with IGTV series like Stretch for Flexibility and Classic Pilates Abs. Get a taste of what the studio has to offer before signing up for more exclusive classes here.
Upside Motion
If you’re interested in learning more about barre and pilates, head over to Upside Motion’s Instagram page to check out its offerings. Just grab a chair from your living room and attempt the Xtend Barre: Second Position Pile Cardio or the Lower Body Work which trains the inner thighs and glutes.
