If you follow me on Publish0x -- by the way, I think you should ;) -- you know that I work as a fitness class instructor. The C-virus made it impossible for me to do my job in the way I used to. My classes were well-attended before with up to 150 people showing up in person and of course, they were cancelled due to the pandemic -- and they still are. So, I had to adapt to the new situation: I started working out at home, but the thrill, the motivation of standing in front of a group of up to 150 people was missing entirely. I decided to get it back and decided to livestream my fitness classes. I tried several different technical solutions (a post summarizing all that is coming soon) and I ended up with YouTube for livestreaming. In fact, I realized that if I use YouTube for livestreaming, I might as well leave the videos available online and voila - that was the birth of my YouTube channel. 

As you can imagine, the beginning on YouTube was super hard and it still is. I get hardly any audience and I keep asking myself wtf am I doing?! I did not think it would be so hard to give content away for free. :D However, I realize that it takes some time to build an audience. Maybe you will find the content interesting and become part of my audience? However, there is a catch: I instruct the class in German, but you can follow along even without understanding what I’m saying as you can just follow the visuals. In fact if you prefer not to hear my voice and just listen to the workout music for motivation, mute the workout video and listen to the playlist instead (link is below).

As the tagline "get in shape, stay in shape" on the thumbnail (for this post) suggests, the class is suitable for beginners, intermediate and even advanced participants. However, you might need to take short breaks in between or during the exercises. If you feel like you need to take a break, take it and join back in as soon as you can. :) 

Here is my latest video. It is already the tenth video of this series on my YouTube channel, but actually, it does not matter which video you use as your first workout. And I improved the sound quality a lot from my first attempts. So, that is why I have not shared any of the previous videos on here.

I have spent the past few days learning how to edit videos in order to improve the quality and the appeal of my livestreams that I reupload to my channel after the edit and what I learned about while editing this video is color-correction. Please tell me in the comments what you think about it. I can already tell you what my laptop thinks about it: It hates that. :D Rendering the video suddenly took three times as long as before. And even before it was already slow. 

Here is the playlist that you can listen to instead of my voice:
