Work on your cardio or perfect that yoga pose, and come out of this quarantine fitter than ever
Gyms and fitness studios in the city have had to close their doors temporarily to help prevent the spread of coronavirus. But don’t think you’re getting off the hook that easy. Many of them are offering live streaming sessions of workouts—for free, which means you have no excuse for coming out of self-isolation a few kilos heavier. Here are some of the ones we like best.
