    Nike Training Club
    The sports -wear giant announced that it would indefinitely waive the monthly fee that it charges subscribers of its premium service. The app contains recordings of more than 185 free workouts, including cardio yoga and others. These sessions last between 15 to 45 minutes and also provide holistic fitness programmes that come with nutrition and wellness guidance.

    CorePower Yoga
    The largest yoga studio in the United States has opened its doors to the world by offering free access to its online classes. The studio, which runs over 200 facilities, charges around $ 26 per class for in-person sessions. CorePower Yoga-On-Demand now posts new classes online each week, including meditation sessions.

    Rumble
    While not an app, the boxing-inspired fitness channel that airs classes on Instagram each evening, has found an army of loyal followers. New classes are posted on Rumble’s Instagram account— @doyourrumble — at 5.30 pm IST. It combines boxing with strength training by simulating a 10-round fight that combines highintensity workouts with metabolic conditioning.
