Indoor step workouts are trending - and promise to be a seriously enjoyable way to boost both fitness and mood

A woman doing an indoor step workout in her living room.

Sometimes in life, you really can't beat the old stuff. Old friends, old tunes, old movies - we love them all. And when it comes to working out, it seems we're partial to going retro too: indoor step workouts are trending again. If you'd packed your legwarmers away with your trusty Jane Fonda workout video (ask your parents if you don't know what VHS is), then you might want to hunt down that dusty box in the loft and shake them off, 'cos this is one seriously fun (and effective) way to up fitness levels and boost mood.

Coinciding with a huge spike in interest in indoor walking workouts (search the term on YouTube and you'll see workouts garnering millions of views), indoor step is the natural step up, excuse the pun. And it's pretty much perfect for this time of year, too - no traipsing to the gym in the cold and dark, you can get your sweat on from the comfort of your living room. It's win, win.
