5 Best Workout Apps You Can Use In Your Room

Everyone always says that you have to workout in college, unless you wanna gain some weight, but sometimes the gym is just so far. This leaves you with a two options: workout in your room or not workout at all. I'm guessing that most people chose the latter of the two, but if you want to avoid gaining those extra few pounds I suggest working out in your room. If you need some motivation to workout in your room there are plenty of workout apps that will give you that extra boost of motivation you need.

So next time you don't want to walk to the gym, check out these apps and you'll get just as good of a workout:

1. Sworkit

Sworkit allows you to choose the part of your body you want to work on and then it generates multiple exercises for you to try! You can even set your workout time. And if you hate the exercise you can skip it and get a new one...but the time won't skip so you'll still get a great workout.

2. FitStar

This app also creates custom workouts based on your fitness level. You can then decide which exercises you thought were too easy or too tough so your next workout is even better than the last.

3. Wahoo 7 Minutes

This app is definitely one of my favorites. Sometimes you only have seven minutes to workout. You have a busy day but still need to do something active. You do 12 exercises each for 30-seconds with a 10-second rest in between and then you're done! It's so simple and so great! There is no excuse not to do a seven-minute workout.


4. Blogilates

This workout app gives you access to healthy recipes AND workout videos. You can plan specific exercise routines every day and do some awesome pilates.

5. Kayla Itsines BBG

So this one is a little different. it's not a workout app and it is not free but it is still able to be completed in your room. The program is comprised of two circuits each for 7 minutes and then repeating it twice. Each circuit you are given to do is a little different so you will never get bored with your workout! You get an amazing workout in only 28 minutes and the results are worth it.



So next time you're debating whether or not to go to the gym or if you should stay in your room, it's okay to stay in your room as long as you are still going to workout!

5 Things To Do That Are Better Than Writing A Paper

Don't waste your time trying to write that paper when there are so many more interesting things you could be doing.

Writing a paper is never fun and is rarely rewarding. The writer's block, the page requirement, be specific, but don’t summarize, make sure you fixed any grammatical errors, did you even use spellcheck? and analyze, analyze, analyze.

Papers can be a major pain. They take up so much time and effort that by the end of the process you hate yourself and you hate the professor for making life so difficult. Questions of your existence start roaming in your mind. Am I even cut out for college if I can’t write a single paper? Am I even capable of taking care of myself if I lack the energy to open my laptop and start typing?

sisters

I can barely remember back when I was the only child. Most would say it’s because it is extremely difficult to remember things as a toddler but I would say it's because I was bored until my sister came along. My mother always says how important the "sister bond" is and with every year that passes I realize how right she is. Instead of writing a novel about all of the wonderful things there are about having a sister I decided to list a few of them instead.

It is the time of our lives that we are beginning to enter the adult world and most of us, if not all of us, have no idea what we are doing. It's like starting a video game, but skipping the tutorial. We're all just running around aimlessly hoping we accidentally do something right that moves us along the right path. Now that graduation has just happened, or is right around the corner for some of us, it's time to start thinking about how we are going to take care of ourselves once we are on our own.

If you’re anything like me, you love a good cup of coffee. My coffee always comes from Starbucks; I refuse to drink it from anywhere else. Over the years, it’s become one of my biggest addictions.
