Workouts are not a one-size-fits-all deal! Different bodies need different types of exercise. People need a certain difficulty level, or need to target specific parts of their body, etc. I was lucky enough to try out a new online website called GymRa to review and share with you. GymRa has helped me with not plateauing physically (where the body stops changing after time) and managing my exercise time. With so many videos, I wasn’t even getting bored of a typical repetitive workout.
GymRa online gym is all about personalization. Right from the beginning, you can create your own virtual “You”, and put in your current weight and features, and your goal weight. Then, you can choose to begin with the Workout Customizer, or the Workout Generator. With the Workout Customizer, you browse the videos and create your own workout. I was able to choose what videos I felt were best for me, and with the flexibility of choice, I could mix it up! But, I have ALWAYS needed guidance in the ‘exercise section’ of my life, which was why I probably the most physically successful in gym class in high school and college… Anyway, I was happy to get a lot of guidance with the Workout Generator. The Workout Generator is so personal you can choose the muscle groups you want to work out, what difficulty (Beginner, Intermediate, and Advanced), even male or female trainer if you have a preference.
In the Workout Generator, time is also a factor. Choose how long you want to spend for a workout, from 15 minutes, 30, 45, to one hour. So if you’re like I am and don’t have much time, this way you can always get a little sweatin’ squeezed in. In addition, seeing as I don’t have much gear/money for gear, it is great that the Workout Generator also allows you to choose if you want to use gear or no gear in your workouts.
I was able to save my personalized workouts easily in the Saved Workouts section. I liked how I could always go back to them and enjoy my workout quickly and effectively. GymRa’s portability is another great feature. Since it is a website, it is usable on any internet-enabled device—computers, tablets, and even smartphones, so you can take your workout with you anywhere! Also, GymRa has their own blog, so you can connect with other GymRa members regarding their progress. You can get great-tasting and metabolism-kicking recipes, and other health articles as well.
One of my favorite things about GymRa is that it is cheap! You can It is only $4.99 a month, every month, or the flat rate of $30.00 for a full year. I spend much more on junk food than that! I know I cannot find a dedicated personal trainer for that price, let alone GymRa’s many personal trainers. Since GymRa has several personal trainers, I was very glad that there was a bio on each of them, including their specialties, which gave that more one-on-one feel.
GymRa is for those who do not have time to wander around the gym, wondering what workouts to do, and for those who do not want to pay tons of money for a personal trainer.
