What fun workouts or apps are you using to make working out more fun? I'm lacking in motivation lately! I do have a treadmill

    Depends on your definition of fun. I use Fitness Blender but it's usually pretty damn hard work but I feel like an awesome badass afterwards. YMMV.

    Yup. They have a stand alone website too which is free to use unless you buy a program (cheap).

    A fun workout to me would be something like poledancing class...

    For me, i can't stand running at a steady pace, so whenever i'm on a treadmill i just run harder for 30-40 seconds and then i walk for 5-20 seconds and repeat. I still run a mile in the same pace, but mentally and physically it's more much efficient.

    This is also true, dancing, pole, even things like Zumba or tennis or something. But I'm not likely to do those more than once a week. And for personal reasons, at the moment they're not something I ever do! But that's a me issue, not an everyone else issue.

    I would love to go to pole - just no time! A few years ago I did 3 classes a week...

    I've been occupying my time on the treadmill with learning another language.

    Suspension yoga and silks are on my class wish list and getting myself to some ballet and tap classes after far too long out of the studio. One day hopefully.

    I do blogilates on YouTube.She has so many different kind of workout 3minuite, 5 minuite ,full length and every muscle you wanna tone plus cardio! Also she has eating tips and a very upbeat personality that really motivates check her out. Also I do fitness blender to switch it up but that's a very serious dull workout to me but affective.

    I love dance workouts, and most recently rebounding. Specifically for the dance workouts I love the Dirty Dancing video and the Step up Dance Revolution videos.

    Also turn on some music put your headphones in and dance as your cleaning or just for fun you don't realize how much of a workout that actually is!
