Working out is the great, zero-cost stress-reliever. And no, we don’t mean those hardcore workout sessions you see online but rather light training plans.
However, the mere thought of exercising may cause some of us to deflate and click away. The gym membership is too expensive, some might say.
With the Nike Training app, you can start simple and easy. It’s also free! No matter your level of fitness, the app has carefully curated training programs for you. Say good-bye to the sluggish and low-energy days and welcome each day in your best condition. You’ll be surprised at how spending 30 minutes every morning working out can significantly impact your day for the better.
