Thankfully, at-home workout equipment has gotten more sophisticated over the past few years. But then customer service reached out and sent a Bluetooth speaker and technicians to help figure out the problem! Unbelievable customer service.Lots of us are still working out in our living rooms and bedrooms post-pandemic. I was willing to live with it because I can't have the volume up too loud anyway (apartment dwellers know this). The Mirror setup was fast and easy and takes up NO space. Since getting the Mirror, I've exercised six of seven days, sweating each time and getting my heart rate up for the first time in months. My gym closed in March, and I've been struggling to stay motivated during quarantine. ![]() I live in a 750-square-foot apartment and do not have room for gym equipment. Promising review: "First, let me say I've had the Mirror for a week now and I love, love, love it. It also tracks your progress so you can try and beat yourself to improve. There are more than 20 different types of workouts on the device, including boxing, Pilates, weights, and more. Plus, you can sync the heart-rate monitor or Apple Watch to help you track your workout in real-time. It comes with a wall-mount and stand as well as a companion app. The mirror brings a fitness studio right into your home.

Get it from Amazon for $329.99+ (available in seven colors). But it's exactly what I was looking for to break out of sedentary lifestyle in an extremely hot climate." - Rene ![]() The treadmill is super simple, and I wouldn't rely too heavily on its distance/calorie indicator, I use my watch for that. I can still run and walk without them no problem. I have a small apartment so being able to store it folded is important to me, and I found I don't need the side arms attached. I'm 5'5, and I found the size perfect, however, the belt may be a bit short for someone with a longer stride. I lubricated the belt before use and had no issues. Time will tell how it holds up (I opted to purchase the extended warranty, just in case), but it arrived in perfect condition and was extremely easy to set up. Promising review: "I was a bit apprehensive after reading some of the negative reviews, but upon arrival, I am extremely happy with this treadmill. It also has a phone holder, Bluetooth speaker, and remote control. When the raiser is folded down, it can be used to jog at a speed of 1-4 km/h, and when it's raised, you can up your speed and run at 1-12 km/h.

I feel so strong because of the app, and I did it all without ever leaving my apartment. It pushes me to be stronger and more confident and really has been such a good thing for me in the past seven months. I never would have thought I would enjoy a Dance HIIT or even a regular HIIT class, but now I do them regularly. Obé has me challenging myself and trying out new classes. Plus, you can filter classes in the on-demand section, so you can select a low-impact class if you have neighbors to worry about. Obé offers a ton of varieties of classes, including strength, HIIT, sculpt, yoga, barre, and dance. When I can’t make the live classes, there are SO many on-demand. And the instructors even give shoutouts to people in the class, and it's actually a pretty cool feeling when you hear your name. The live classes are fun and give me a reason to get out of bed in the morning. Plus, I feel like I’m actually getting a good workout and am sore after many workouts. You don't technically need any equipment for the workout, but you can "level up" with simple equipment, such as a resistance loop, weights, and sliders. The classes are a great workout, yet the 28 minutes go by super fast, and I’m not counting down the minutes till it’s over. I started using Obé and then went back to my old at-home workout and switched back to Obé again because I realized I liked it so much. Since I’ve never belonged to a gym while living in New York, I am a self-proclaimed master of working out at home. I've been using Obé for almost a year and a half now, and I am still completely obsessed with it and think it is one of the greatest workout apps out there. ![]()
