I’m usually a bit behind the times (I like to think I have a fairly legit excuse), but it’s only a day off, and it goes hand in hand with this week’s The Fit Dish (hosted by Jessica and Jill) theme is on…YouTube Fitness videos!
First off, I’d like to introduce you to a FREE 8-week fitness challenge hosted by Fit Approach & Run To The Finish!
You can get more information about it here, but the basics are below:
When: November 8- January 2nd
Where: Wherever you live! (It’s online!)
Who: Anyone looking to up their fitness or stay on track (over 3,000 have participated!).
Cost: FREE
There are prizes every week for posting your workouts, foods, etc. on social media using the hashtag! :]
Don’t have a gym membership? Moving all over the place? Short on time? Well, that’s where this week’s theme comes into play! I’m sharing…3 fitness YouTube channels for you to check out! Yes, I subscribe to all of them. No, I haven’t watched all the videos.
Two of em’ share workouts and healthy living tips…and the last one is just for funsies. If you’re not a fan of ridiculous humor that makes fun of everything and may be laced with profanity every here and there, you might not enjoy the last one as much.
Zuzka Light
I’ve talked at length about Zuzka in another post, but she’s awesome, and creates all sorts of quick but challenging workouts to do for the time-crunched soul (which is kinda perfect for me, especially right now). For instance, this 5-Minute Hotel Room Workout!
Blogilates (aka Cassey Ho)
I think I’ve at least mentioned Cassey/Blogilates a couple times on here, but I love how positive she is, even when she’s murdering me on a workout! She also has another channel (BlogilatesTV) where she shares videos on healthy foods, recipes, fashion, etc.!
Here’s one of her ab videos!
BroScienceLife
heh heh heh, so long as you don’t take anything that Dom says seriously, you will likely have a blast on his channel, because he’s hilarious! Some of my favorite classics include “How To Skip Leg Day” and “How to Hit on a Girl at the Gym.” (Hopefully, you can tell just by those that he is being completely ridiculous. (If you can’t stand profanity, you probably won’t enjoy this as much.)
Here’s one of his newer ones on How to Bring a Beginner to the Gym!
Two “tokens of Dom wisdom”:
If you’re afraid of dying, then just be stronger than death. Or ask a stranger for a spot, which is scarier than death.”

Ah, Tara Stiles! How could I have forgotten about her!? I like her a lot too! :] Hope you like the other channels!
Thanks for posting this! I’m currently unable to run so I’ll be focusing a lot on strength training at home.

Hooray for strength training! I hope your IT band heals up soon! <3

hehehe, I hope you like that channel! <3
Ok, BroScienceLife looks HILARIOUS and i have not heard of it. I am so excited to check it out. Bahaha. And, I completely agree about the other two channels. Zuzka’s workouts pack serious punch in so little time, and let’s not even talk about her ads. And Cassey, the vis are so happy and beautiful, it’s kind of insane. Thanks again for all the great info, Farrah! #fitfamlove

hahaha, he’s wonderful and full of all sorts of hilarious quotes! :P Agreed with Zuzka + Cassey! <3 They make my current gym-less-ness less terrible! :]
I’ve used his pre-workout Gnar Pump and was genuinely surprised it worked well. Reps for Jesus.
Author
hehehe, I didn’t know he had a pre-workout, but that’s awesome that it worked well!
I am definitely going to check out that first channel you mentioned…she looks tough! And also the last one, just for fun! Thanks for the recommendations! Good luck with your challenge!

Ooo, TIU! I haven’t checked that one out in ages! Thanks for reminding me about em’! <3
Awesome thanks for sharing.I think that 5 minute hotel workout would be such a great idea to do if I am ever watching TV during commercials (I like to multi-task even when I am being lazy watching tv) LOL

hehehe, I hope you like the other two! :D They are very different, but both awesome!
I didn’t think I could commit 100% so for the first time in several years I’m not joining the challenge. It’s one of the best organized holiday challenges available. #fitfamlove
