I’m here to let you in on one of the little known secrets of losing weight and getting in tip-top shape. And it all has to do with how you workout. And, get this. It doesn’t require an expensive gym membership or more than 20-minutes or your time. 

Are you in? Keep reading because you’re going to want in on why at-home HIIT workouts are even more effective than hitting the gym and spending all you spare cashola on that luxury gym membership. 

Reasons To Skip The Gym

Working out at home has countless perks. From saving you time to saving you money, at-home workouts are where it’s at. 

Here are some of the best reasons to get your HIIT workout sesh in right from your living room. Hey, you are even welcome to wear your PJ’s…we’re not judging! 

  • Saves You Commuting Time: Working out at home means you can press play on your favorite FitOn HIIT workout and not even have to get in the car to drive to the gym. You can literally just press play and jump into a workout class whenever you can squeeze it into your day. No commute to the gym required! 
  • Saves You Money: Gym memberships can be downright expensive. Gym memberships can cost you upwards of $100 a month which can quickly burn a hole in your wallet? You can do exactly what you are doing at the gym with FitOn workouts that are offered for free! 
  • You May be More Likely to Go All Out: If you are exercising right from the comfort of your home, you may be more likely to really rock that HIIT FitOn class. No one’s looking, and you can really challenge yourself. 

Plus, most people will waste time while at the gym. They’re either waiting for workout equipment to free up, or talking to fellow gym-goers. You may be at the gym for an hour, but only workout for 30 minutes. When you get your HIIT workout in at home, you can really block out any distractions and get to it. It’s really the ultimate way to make sure you are pushing yourself, burning calories, and putting your all into your workout. 

Why You Should do HIIT Workouts at Home 

So, we get it. Working out at home is pretty clutch. I mean, it’s free when you use FitOn app, and you don’t even have to get dressed or get in the car to drive to the gym. 

But, why is HIIT such a great at-home workout option?

HIIT workouts make the perfect at-home exercise because they are super quick. This means that they can fit right into your day. Whether you have 20 minutes to crush a workout during the kiddos nap time, or 10 minutes to do a quick HIIT workout before heading out the door to work, you can squeeze it in when you have time. This means you can say goodbye to the excuse that you don’t have time to exercise. Because anyone can find 20 minutes to do a workout at home, right? 

If you are looking for a quick fat-burning workout to burn calories and get your heart and blood pumping, press play on a HIIT class. Try one of our FitOn trainers like Breann Mitchell or Katie Dunlop. They are sure to kick your butt and help you burn more calories and fat! Certainly more than you ever would mindlessly jogging on a treadmill (aka dreadmill) at the gym.
