Stay Fit and Healthy at Home This Week
No gym? No worries. Here are five local fitness centers that are using tech to keep you toned during your quarantine.
Sure, you can forgo dining out or shopping at the malls for a few weeks, but hitting the brakes on your gym time is a major sacrifice during the COVID-19 stay-at-home order. Fear not, though—some of Bergen County’s most popular gyms and fitness centers have heard your pleas and now offer online instructional classes and services for clients. Here are just five of the local places that will get you up and active while you’re confined to your casa:
Blink, Paramus and Lodi
If you’re one of those busy people who have to go to the gym before they can do anything else, Blink has the program for you—they’re going live every weekday on Facebook at 8 a.m. with guided workout classes. Look out for tips and tricks from instructors and personal trainers every morning and you’ll be set to work out on your own when their Paramus and Lodi locations reopen to the public.

If you’re a current Crunch member, the service is free, but non-members can access a 45-day free trial before committing to a subscription.
