Fitness outside the gym, on your terms.
By Julia Horniacek, Best Product
The first step to getting
in shape is to define your comfort zone and be willing to push yourself
out of it, but if a gym memberships is too costly, the extra effort to
get there doesn't fit into your schedule, or you feel uncomfortable in
that atmosphere, there are options.
[post_ads]There
is more to fitness than free weights and treadmills, and with resources
like YouTube, on demand television programs, mobile apps, and more made
available to us, we have the opportunity to customize our workout from
what we do, to where we practice. Listed below are our top picks for
training programs you can purchase online and utilize at your
convenience. From bodyweight intervals to yoga and weight training,
there's something for everyone!

Crush60 Complete Package

by 26-year-old Ben Williamson in 2014, Crush Fitness launched to
provide everyone (from the weary weightlifter to avid gym-goers) with a
program that was both affordable and effective. Gravitating an
impressive social media fan base, the brand has since expanded from one
to four
innovative programs that can be used at the gym, at home, and with a
variety of exercises you can implement into your personal routine.
