My Amazon Echo Show is used in our home every day for so many things - but little did I know that it can offer even more benefits and experiences thanks to Alexa Skills. Alexa Skills add new capabilities to your Alexa enabled devices that allow you to create a more personalized experience. I use them to play games, order food, listen to podcasts and one of my favorites - try new workouts right from the comfort of my home!

When I found out that I could try free workouts from my Amazon Echo Show, I was so excited to try them out! With the New Year coming up and wanting to stay active during my pregnancy I have been really taking advantage of the convenience of working out right in my house with Alexa Skills.

One of my favorite workouts is the the 7-minute workout. It takes you through a variety of exercises for 7 minutes and you can let Alexa know when you are ready for the next exercise and take breaks as you need to as well. I also love that you can put on your favorite music before hand and it will play through with your workout! Anytime I feel like I need to get active I just say “Alexa Start 7-Minute Workout” and I am moving my body within seconds. It is so fun and makes staying active easier than ever.
