With Covid-19 wreaking havoc across the world, tearing at the social fabric of many societies, and disrupting many economies, businesses are forced to close down in a bid to contain the spread of the virus. And gyms and fitness centers are no exception: a slew of these facilities have had to shut their doors to fitness enthusiasts in a bid to contain the coronavirus. As a result, many personal trainers, fitness coaches, and studios started offering virtual sessions to those looking to stay fit and smart during lockdowns. Better yet, some of the online fitness programs and training are being offered online!

Despite strict enforcement of lockdowns across Europe and the US, a walk, a run, or a bike ride is still allowed in many places on one condition: people must religiously adhere to social-distancing protocols, including wearing facemasks all the time. But if you are keen to move and you’ve been asked to shun the gym or otherwise get homebound, free online workouts can be amazing options under given circumstances. “Regardless of what you choose, be sure to be attentive to your form, listen to your body, and be gentle to yourself. Even a 10-minute workout daily will do wonders. So, you should go to any length to make it happen” quoted by Mr. Tim, a fitness trainer from Gym fit out Dubai.

These are some of the best free workout options.
