THERE is no need to take out a pricey gym membership to get fit in 2025.
With apps for everything from disco dance workouts to yoga, getting in shape can be easy — and cheap.
Here are a few ideas to get you off the starting blocks.
ON YOUR MARKS: Start your 2025 fitness journey with the Couch To 5K app.
The NHS-backed programme gets newbie runners pounding their local parks three times a week until they can run 5k after nine weeks.
Easy to follow, welcoming and motivating, millions claim the app improved their fitness.
PICK AND MIX: If you like to mix up your workouts, or are too busy to get out and about, the Daily Workouts Fitness Coach app has dozens of routines to put you through your paces.
With video tutorials, it’s like having a personal trainer in your living room.
RUN FOR FUN: Runners of all levels will find their tribe on the Adidas Running app. The free version keeps a satisfying tally of your runs, with the timings, mileage and average pace.
You also join a like-minded community and get the motivation to hit your goals.
Although the premium plan comes with a £41.99 annual price tag, you’ll get many features on the free version.
EAT LIKE A CHAMP: Good health is also about what you put on your plate.
To tot up your calories, use the MyFitnessPal app, where you can log meals and get tips on healthier eating.
Even the free version of the app helps you track the amount of fat, sugar, protein and fibre you’re putting into your body, and gives you sensible goals to stick to.
BEND AND FLEX: Improve your flexibility with a free yoga programme. Adriene Mishler’s Yoga With Adriene on YouTube is a hit with millions around the world who want to build their strength.
There are lots of workouts to choose from, and the 30 Day Yoga Journey is a great way to kick off 2025.
