Dreading going to the gym is a whole new beast these days. Even as states slowly reopen from quarantine, there are still risks involved working out near others. Feeling safe in cramped spin classes and weight rooms is still a long way into the future. In the meantime, you can still get an intense workout at home (honestly!). It’s better to either join the online live classes for workout or bring a squat rack at home. Since March, professional athletes, ballerinas, even swimmers are finding ways to work out in their living rooms. And if they can make the best of it, you can, too. We’ve rounded up some of the best virtual workouts available, to help you stave off extra quarantine weight and get your best summer body ever. Even if Instagram is the only place people will see it for now.
