For those who want to stay in shape by working out every day even at home, a free fitness app to use is Cyberobics: here’s what it is and how it works
Facing the closure of fitness centers, people have reacted in two different ways: there are those who have given up thinking “summer is still far away” and those who just did not want to give up their daily dose of fitness. And it is precisely to this second category of people that Cyberobics is aimed, a completely free application, available for both iOS and Android devices, which will allow you to train and keep fit in the comfort of your own home, without the need to buy expensive equipment.
What is Cyberobics
What is Cyberobics? Simple! It is an application that can be downloaded and used on any device that allows users to train where and when they want, without the need to go to the gym. Away to home fitness, then, without the obligation to move and lose precious time during the day. For the most skeptical who see in Cyberonics yet another clone of the thousands of applications dedicated to home fitness: you’ll have to think again! Cyberobics is in fact the application released by the famous chain of gyms McFIT, the favorite of stars all over the world. Already used by members of the gym during their workout sessions, the application, during a difficult time like the Coronavirus pandemic, has been made accessible for free to anyone who feels the need to keep fit by following methods already tested and professional.
But McFIT, through Cyberobics, aims to support its users not only physically, but also psychologically. Vito Scavo, CEO of McFIT Italy, stresses how important it is in such a difficult time to use physical training to achieve and maintain stability and psychophysical well-being: “We are extremely impressed by the current situation in Italy. Anyone who is well and has no symptoms of illness can take a break and immerse themselves in another world for a moment through these spectacular online training sessions.” The message that wants to get across to members, as well as closeness, wants to be a motivation not to let themselves be beaten down, to be resilient and to continue to take care of themselves, physically and psychologically.
The proposed workouts
The proposed paths and workouts, which last from 10 to 50 minutes, have all been designed by professional personal trainers to give maximum results in complete safety. The result of years of research and work in the field, Cyberobics workouts are structured to be as inclusive as possible: they are suitable for both men and women, adapt to your level of training, can be done where you want, when you want, last as long as you have available and meet many of your needs.
At the moment, there are over 100 on-demand video courses available on the Cyberobics app, including Burn to burn fat, SixPack to work on the abdomen, Strong to implement physical strength, and 70 live courses taught by the best personal trainers available. If you’ve missed a live session that you really wanted to attend, don’t worry: the live sessions are saved for a week.
But that’s not all: to make it easier and more enticing for subscribers to exercise and attend the courses, they take place against the backdrop of breathtaking exotic locations, allowing users to, at least for a moment, escape with their imagination from their homes. And to make everything even more real? Just use Cyberobics on your Smart TV, so you can enjoy an immersive and engaging fitness experience.
How to sign up and train
As anticipated, the application has been made accessible for free to counteract the sedentariness caused by the forced quarantine during the coronavirus pandemic. To enjoy the service, all you have to do is go to your smartphone’s digital store, download the app and install it. Once opened, the app requires you to sign up: all you need is a valid email and a password.
At that point, having entered all your parameters within your personal profile, you’ll be ready to successfully and motivatedly start your personal remise en forme. How does Cyberobics work? It’s really simple and intuitive: on the main screen you’ll find a large number of pre-recorded videos with different objectives that you’ll only have to start to train. Otherwise, at the bottom, in the menu, there is the live classes section: here, at set times, live workouts start and you can easily participate in them.
