I’m not motivated to work out at home (boring and not a variety of options) and don’t want to go to gym due to Covid. What should I do?

You should go to the gym. Been going 3-4 times per week for over a year with no mask.

Get a Peloton! They have a tread and spin bike option and their instructors are awesome. Wide variety of on demand classes

The tread is amazing. My wife has the bike, but I really don't enjoy sitting on a bike unless it is my mountain bike.

Do you have a park nearby with workout stations? A lot of towns have them near me and they are pretty good workouts if you put the effort in.

Online workout challenges!

Some Zoom, I do mostly YouTube workouts (some are even live streams)

Look at goruck.com. Great workouts.

Eat popcorn and watch Netflix.
Btw Netflix content is boring these day but I guess you are too 😂

Take a walk around your neighborhood. Purchase some weights to do something at home

Make a bet with friends. Competition and money help keep me motivated.

You may not like working out home but if you don’t want to go to a gym then there aren’t other options. You’re either serious about your health or you aren’t. If you are then find something to do at home that you will stick with even if it isn’t your favorite.
