The hashtag #CozyCardio has over a million views so far on TikTok, and just like its predecessors (#HotGirlWalking, #SoftHiking, etc), it’s an easy, accessible and non-judgmental way to ease ourselves into more movement – even when it’s grim outside.

Coined by feel-good content creator Hope Zuckerbrow, cosy cardio was originally all about indoor walking on a walking pad, ideally in loungewear or PJs from the comfort of a candlelit living room. And if your favourite TV show is streaming in the background, so much the better.

So, what’s so great about it?
