2020 changed the way we approach fitness more than any other year in recent memory. The quarantines and lockdowns caused by COVID-19 completely changed the way we work out and led to the emergence of these three fitness trends.

Home Training

After the gyms were closed around the world this year, working out from home was a must for many. This shift in our workout routines helped us discover the magic of training at home, and many people ended up canceling their gym memberships and stuck to this type of training.

Dance Cardio Workouts

One of the worst things about working out from home is finding the motivation to start your training. Music can be a great motivational tool, and that’s one of the reasons why dance cardio channels experienced a real boom on YouTube, and they’re not going anywhere.

Subscription Fitness Services

Many people used fitness apps to guide their workouts in 2020, and that’s just the beginning. Apple Fitness+ is the latest subscription service to make waves in the activewear world and we’re expecting other major tech companies will want to join in the game.

Dance cardio YouTube channels experienced a huge boom this year, and Emily Thorne gave us one of the very best. She’s sharing some of the dorkiest and most carefree workout videos you can find online, and some of them are inspired by our favorite musicals.

Fans of musical theater will feel right at home on her YouTube channel emkfit, which is close to reaching 100,000 subscribers. She shared many throwback workouts inspired by our favorite ‘80s and ‘90s hits, but that’s not the only reason to head to her channel.

Thorne became an instant sensation thanks to the videos that pay homage to the popular Broadway musicals. She shared two compilations with songs from Rent, Hamilton, and Grease, in addition to posting separate videos with songs from Mamma Mia and Burlesque.

Thorne isn’t the only personal trainer on YouTube who found fame with workout videos inspired by musicals. Kyra Pro has a similar vision for her channel, and several more YouTubers, including Teagan Dixon and Sharona’s Hill, are sharing music cardio workouts, often inspired by the beloved Disney classics.

During the pandemic, there have been many workout trends including rollerskating, virtual training, yoga, HIIT, and our latest obsession—dance fitness classes. While dance fitness isn’t anything groundbreaking as Jazzercise was super popular in the ’80s and tons of gyms offer Zumba, dance cardio has really taken off during COVID-19. Dance cardio is the perfect way to get an intense workout in without feeling like you’re actually exercising!

Just ask the founder of the dance fitness program KINGRY, Dancing With the Stars veteran Julianne Hough, who says, “There’s something about dance.” “Exercise is really the best thing you can do for the brain because it helps build new connectors within your hippocampus, which is where you create and store memory…The more you express yourself when you work out or move your body, the more you’re actually shifting your brain.”

KINGRY is just one of many dance fitness programs as there are tons offered on YouTube through channels like POPSUGAR Fitness, MadFit, and The Fitness Marshall.

The best thing about these videos is that they don’t require any equipment and that you can easily do them at home. The videos feature either popular songs with dance choreography or 30-minute cardio dance routines. The movements in the songs are cardio and strength exercises and they often repeat themselves, making it easy for just about anyone to catch on. Some of the videos even have a warmup and cooldown, which mimic a typical cardio fitness class.

Getting motivated to work out at home can be tough, but it’s all about finding the right resources. If traditional workouts simply don’t do the trick for you, make sure to check out these fun dance cardio channels.

MadFit

Maddie Lymburner aka MadFit does the best possible job combining fitness and music. Her workout videos will give you the most effective calorie burn, because she’s not simply doing dance cardio, but demonstrating actual workout moves to the beat of popular songs.

The Fitness Marshal

The Fitness Marshal has much more fun and offbeat approach to fitness and music is an essential part of his workout videos. All the moves are pretty easy to perform, and he’ll be motivating you to keep going every step of the way.

MYLEE Dance

MYLEE Dance’s videos are much more choreographed than the ones you’ll find on the previous two channels. They don’t provide clear instructions, but it’s much easier to follow them than some other dance choreographies.
