Because This Weather Sucks: Insanely Fun Living Room Workouts to Do Today
When the weather is as gloomy as it is today, a trip to the gym can be a hard sell.

We’ve rounded up eight seriously fun (really!), free, no-equipment-needed workout videos that will keep you nice and dry — actually scratch that, you’ll be working up quite the sweat. They range from 10 minutes to over an hour, so pick whichever floats your boat, find some space in your casa, and hit play.
