HOUSEWORK

Once fitness studios and gyms shut down in 2020, it took me almost two years to find a new workout routine that I enjoyed doing in my cozy NYC apartment and helped me stay consistent. Then I became a housework subscriber! I first downloaded the app to help me and feel my best for a bachelorette trip in early 2022 and I haven’t stopped using it since! The app offers so many on demand options for when you’re traveling without equipment, only have 10 minutes to get some movement in, or want to challenge yourself with a previously live 50 minute class! It’s always updating and changing so you never get bored and have fresh workout options each week. Even more recently, I got an Equinox membership and continue to use the housework app religiously! There’s nothing better than moving your body and enjoying moving to music that you love. If you’re wanting to try something new, I highly suggest housework!

I have tried many different workouts throughout the years to keep it challenging, fun and rewarding. Many instructors do the same thing class after class. Due to this my body gets used to the workouts and I no longer find them challenging, further it’s repetitive so the classes are no longer engaging. Same music + same routine = ZzzZ Being home during the pandemic with two kids I got a peleton just like many people. It is convenient however, recently I have started to get bored and unmotivated doing straight up cardio on the bike. The weight routines do not give me results either. My body does not change unless I use free hand weights or my own body weight to tone. I need someone to guide me and keep me on a weekly schedule. I finally decided to give Sydney Miller’s housework a try. I can honestly say it’s much different than anything I have every tried. She has lots of different types of classes: beginners, programs/challenges, headliners and more. She is always changing up the routines, and her music gives me vibes. She is also very relatable. I love that you can do the weekly workouts workouts anywhere so you do not fall off the wagon! Even after three weeks in, I’m getting compliments on my appearance so clearly I am getting results from taking the class. Her workouts and eating clean is all you need. I can’t wait to try a class in person in Miami soon! This app is worth every penny. Downloading this app is a must!

Let me start by saying that I’m not one to write reviews, but my experience with Housework has been so transformative that it has to be shared. I’m an avid runner and have suffered from multiple injuries due to a lack of strength training. Strength training just really wasn’t my thing because (1) it’s boring AF! (2) it is HARD! Well...committing to Housework for strength training definitely wasn’t the easy way out (you’ll be sweating within at least 15 seconds of the workout and sore for days) but I have been taking this class for a few years now and have felt so much stronger on my runs because of it. My average minute per mile has dropped over a minute and it’s a true testament to Sydney’s class. Sydney brings so much energy and creativity to her full body workouts. She combines strength training with pilates moves all to the beat of the music. Sydney’s Housework class is TOP NOTCH and truly an escape for me during these tough stay-at-home times. 10/10 HIGHLY, HIGHLY RECOMMEND!
