The Apps And Movies To Get In Shape This Summer
As we discussed in the new issue of PLAY Magazine, it’s never been easier to get in shape for the summer – or to find some #fitspo to help you on your journey! Here’s a selection of some of our favourite movies and apps that are sure you light your motivational fire over the coming summer months…
GET MOTIVATED
Braveheart
Available to rent now on Virgin Movies from €2.99 There is nothing quite like an impassioned defence of your beloved country, (well, not yours, Mel Gibson’s) to get you in the zone. If he can single handedly help Scotland to independence, you can kick start your summer regime. Think positive.
GET YOUR DIET ON POINT WITH
MY FITNESS PAL
Prioritise nailing your nutrition from the get–go to avoid spending hours slaving away for no result!
FIGHT FOR YOUR GOALS
Creed II
Available to rent now on Virgin Movies from €4.99
Here’s one to keep that fire lit and that training intensity going as you continue on the road to fit. Nobody does a training montage like the Rocky franchise – and nobody crushes a desert workout quite like Michael B. Jordan’s pugilistic superstar!
GET BOXING CLEVER WITH…
VIRTUAL SPARRING PARTNER
Duck and weave your way to a fine physique with this fighting phone app – it’s a knockout!
BULLETPROOF YOURSELF
Iron Man
Full trilogy showing from June 25 on Sky Cinema, Virgin TV 300
There is nothing really more motivating than Robert Downey Jr absolutely bossing it in his role as billionaire Tony Stark. Watch him become virtually indestructible in his Ironman suit as he fights off all kinds of nemesis in this brilliant trilogy – and take inspiration from his never say die attitude.
CHILL OUT FROM IT ALL WITH…
Headspace
You’re not always going to feel super energized and motivated – so downtime to restore your energy and focus is important too. Remember, healthy mind AND healthy body!
