Get To Know The Workouts Offered On iFit | NordicTrack Blog

Not all workout programs are created equal. One workout program may lack what another program may excel in. For instance, you may want to do a strength training session then cooldown with a yoga workout, but the workout program you currently have may not offer both workout options. It can be frustrating, time-consuming, and draining to find and download many different workout programs or apps to access everything you want. 

Thankfully, the glorious world of iFIT® has a large variety of workout programs for you to choose from based on your mood and physical fitness level all in one virtual training program. Whatever the case may be, iFIT is packed with challenging and entertaining workouts that’ll leave you hungry for more. Sign up for your free 30-day iFIT Trial now, and see for yourself before committing to a membership.

Let’s go over what kind of workouts you can see on iFIT:

Hiking Workout Programs

iFIT Hiking Workouts – NordicTrack Blog

Hiking is a great way to see the outdoors and admire what mother nature has put in place for our enjoyment; however, there are also limitations placed on us when we are allowed to enjoy these scenic views.

Luckily, iFIT has given us the opportunity to continue our journeys around the world all year long, 24/7. Furthermore, iFIT has even made it cheaper for us all to travel to the most beautiful hikes in the world. Forget the expensive flights, hotels, and overpriced foods and drinks.

You may think walking may be easy, at least until you try this incline walking workout program.

Time Crunch Workout Programs

NordicTrack Vault – NordicTrack Blog

Some days call for anything and everything except working out––whether you don’t have enough time or energy. But working out even just for five minutes can be very beneficial for your health. 

The University of Utah conducted a study that resulted in a decrease of obesity in men and women when they incorporated short bursts of high-intensity activities of fewer or greater than 10 minutes into their everyday life. As you can see, a little goes a long way. 

Let’s start reaping these benefits ourselves, and try one of our time crunch iFIT workouts:

Active Recovery Workout Programs

iFIT Bluetooth – NordicTrack Blog

Sometimes active recovery can be more beneficial than inactivity due to blood flowing to recover and rebuild your muscles after intense exercise. This helps to reduce lactic acid building up in your muscles, eliminating toxins in your body, and even reducing soreness. 

To start a new active recovery routine, try this recovery walk in Bolivia:     

Tunupa Salt Flats Recovery Walk In Bolivia

Let your body recover as iFIT trainer, Hannah Eden, leads you through an easy walk and some freestyle flow stretches.
