The Monday Piece - At Home Insta Workouts

This week's Monday Piece is on at home insta workouts! With the gyms closed for long periods, and some fitness fanatics not feeling safe enough to return despite them re-opening, online fitness really kicked off – especially live workouts on Instagram.

With that in mind, Golfsupport.com wanted to ascertain which 30-minute online workout is the most effective calorie burner.

They gave 67 people a Fitness Tracker each and asked them to complete one workout from the list per day and record the calories burnt. Once all 67 people had completed all the workouts, Golf Support took an average of calories burnt for each workout, and the results can finally be revealed!

Bradley Simmonds’ HIIT workout burned a whopping average of 412 calories in half an hour, making it the most effective workout on the list in terms of calorie burn. This is hardly surprising given the number of burpees on the agenda! Bradley also came in second place on the list in terms of people who said they would do the workout again (68%).

Following closely behind is Body by Ciara, whose workout burnt an average of 403 calories in half an hour, with 72% of people saying they would do the workout again. Ciara also came out on top in terms of music, with an average rating of 9/10.

In third place for calories burnt is Barry’s Bootcamp UK (386 calories per 30 min workout).

In last place is Pamela Reif, whose ab workout burnt a measly 97 calories. Pamela’s workout proved popular though, with 75% of people saying they would do it again (third highest percentage on the list),and an average rating of 8/10. Seems people love an ab workout – even if calories burnt are comparatively low!

National treasure Joe Wicks’s PE workout came relatively low down on the list in terms of calories burnt, torching 290 per half hour session. However, Joe came joint top in terms of enjoyment rating, an average 9/10 score :).
