Sometimes I wake up and I have absolutely no motivation to go work out. Everyone has been there, and knows the feeling of not wanting to leave your bed. But these places are on my list of workouts I actually enjoy doing (crazy, right) or places I've heard from friends that they cannot get enough of.
1. Soul Cycle
Everyone and their mother knows about Soul Cycle by now, but they have such fun cycling classes and the music is the best – to be perfectly honest.
2. Flywheel

OK, so it's pretty similar to Soul Cycle, but you can watch your "score" on the screen and see where you rank in comparison with the rest of the class which is pretty cool. They also have a barre class that I personally love more than most of the other classes I've tried.
3. Yoga Spark
I have grown to love Bikram yoga, and Yoga Spark is so much fun – especially their night time candlelit class where they dim the lights and use little candles to light the room
4. Orange Theory

I personally haven't had the chance to try this spot, but my friend raves about it so it must be great, right? It's literally next on my places that I want to go so I guess we will see what happens when I finally get the chance to try it out!
5. Equinox
I joined the gym this summer while I'm home and the classes are so fun. I really want to try the treadmill classes – I've heard they are similar to Orange Theory! The gym itself is awesome too and literally always crowded.
6. Bikram Yoga Rye Brook
I know, another Bikram class, but this one is different. Their HIIT Pilates class is in the hot room and is SO hard. I literally sweat so much and feel so good afterwards.
7. The Tracy Anderson Method
This is another one I have yet to try, but my mom told me about it and the classes sound so interesting, especially how the exercises in the classes change each week so you can't get bored. Classes are mainly in New York City, and I know there are hundreds of other options once you hit Manhattan, but this sounded cool and is definitely a hit with the celebrity crowds.
8. My basement

Yes, I know this is not a workout class, but some days when I have no motivation or it's a rainy day and I don't want to head out, my basement gym is the next best thing. I can just walk downstairs and accomplish a workout in the comfort of my own house. I also love being able to blast my own music and just do what I want that day instead of following instructions in a class.
