If you’re looking to improve your home yoga practice, or you are a beginner who just can’t fit a class in your schedule, yoga apps can be super helpful. These apps allow you to access hundreds of classes, poses, and motivation anywhere and at any time. Here are some of the best yoga apps for 2021.

Glo

Glo offers a wide variety of classes in varying lengths, by a team of high-quality experienced instructors. It’s probably one of the best apps to help those with busy schedules. The only deterrent may be the price point. Glo is free to download but costs about $18 per month.

Pocket Yoga

Pocket Yoga is a great beginner-friendly app to try if you’re new to yoga. It features classes of all levels, simple instructions, and a comprehensive pose dictionary. You can search the library by post type or level of difficulty.

The Underbelly

Created by author and yoga sensation Jessamyn Stanely, The Underbelly focuses on inclusivity, positivity, and self-love. Classes are divided into 3 themes: Air, Earth, and Fire. Air classes focus on connecting breathing and movement; Earth classes give an introduction to different poses and Fire classes get you moving.

Technology allows us access to a variety of amazing fitness apps, which makes it easy to build exercise plans, track progress, and even motivate us. But which one to choose? We know too many options can be overwhelming, so we rounded up the three best fitness apps for 2021.

Runkeeper

If you’re a runner, the ASICS Runkeeper app is for you. You can track your runs, set measurable goals, and review your past stats to appreciate how far you’ve come. You can use the in-app challenges to stay motivated and participate in virtual running groups for support and inspiration.

Freeletics

Freeletics focuses on quick and efficient bodyweight-focused workouts—that means burpees, squats, and sit-ups variations. It also provides personalized HIIT workouts with audio coaching. The best thing is that these routines can be done anywhere, anytime.

The best thing about pilates arm moves is that everyone can do them, at any time and at any spot. These four examples will really help you get rid of the extra fat, while also gaining toned, feminine muscles.

Arm Circles

You can do this while standing up, being on your knees, with or without weights. Start making circles with your arms, then do the same in the opposite direction.

Biceps Curls

The best way to do the curls is with small weights, one in each hand. If you ever feel like you need an extra challenge, simply get bigger weights. You will be moving only the lower half of the arms towards the shoulder.

Planks

Planks are not only among the best pilates arm moves, but they are also amazing for the whole body. By getting into a plank position you are working the core, upper body, including shoulders, arms, backs, and a part of your legs.

Upright Rows

Upright rows, or also known as zip-ups are very simple and very efficient. Take the weights in your arms, with the palms facing towards the back. Start bringing your arms up, and the elbows should be pointed outwards.

Ever since the Kardashians appeared on social media every girl wants to have that full, perfectly round bottom. Even if you are not a big fan of the sisters, you can still achieve that sculpted behind. These four glutes exercises are basic but will give you the ultimate results.

Barbell Squats

Barbell squats are great because they really target the glutes area. Actually, all types of squats are great when it comes to growing the muscles on your bum. By adding the barbell you’re really increasing the intensity of the workout.

Lunges

Lunges come with so many variations. If you are a beginner, start with the basic one. Once you become better, you can also try pulsing, cross-over, walking lunges and more. Walking lunges are great if you workout in the gym. You can move from one spot to another by doing this exercise.

Single Leg Bridges

Single leg bridges are amazing because they engage the butt, while also stimulating the core and legs.

Bridges

Bridges are among the most basic glutes exercises, but are also among the most efficient ones. Make sure that you have the right posture and that you’re really engaging the buttocks when going up and down.
