Do you love going to different fitness class but find it difficult to get to the gym? Maybe you travel a lot or maybe you’ve got children and find it difficult to get out of the house to do exercise? Well, keep reading as Flex might just be what you have been waiting for…
What is Flex?
I love the internet. There is so much information, so much content out there. The downside of that is that it can sometimes be a bit overwhelming. Especially when it comes to information that concerns your health & fitness. There are loads of free videos on YouTube but how do you know which ones to watch and which channel is committed to bringing out new and good quality videos?
I’ve recently come across the online fitness platform Flex which was set up by 26 year old entrepreneur Elliott Perry. He launched the live video streaming site earlier this year and got in touch to see if I was interested in joining. Yes of course I am! I think it’s a brilliant idea.
If you’ve been following my blog you will know that I’ve been working on my video editing and filming skills and thanks to my husband I’ve become a lot better at it… I’m therefore hoping to produce plenty of new yoga videos that you’ll be able to watch on Flex!
How does it work?
It’s very simple. The instructors upload their video which are put into a schedule. Classes are not available on demand but only certain times which means that if you miss it you miss it! It’s just like a really class – the only difference is that you can take it wherever you have internet access!
You will find a huge variety of workouts from Yoga and Pilates to Zumba, HIIT and pre- and post-natal classes!
Social fitness network
What I like about Flex is that it is interactive. Viewers can post questions live during the video and they can be answered by the instructor either straight away or after the class. This is great as the instructor can then tailor the next video according to the feedback he or she is getting! You can also chat with other members which means there is a real sense of a fitness community.
Flex is free at the moment so make sure you sign up and try it out before there will be a charge. It’s still a new platform but there are new instructors coming on board every day!
I’d love for you to check it out! I’m sure you will love it! It’s very interactive so you will be able to ask questions and the instructors can tailor their next video accordingly.
Hope to see you on my Yogaberry channel soon 🙂
