TikTokers Embrace "Cozy Cardio" for Effortless Fitness

"Cozy cardio" has become a popular trend on TikTok, offering a comfortable and low-pressure alternative to traditional gym workouts. Founded by TikToker Hope Zuckerbrow, cozy cardio involves exercising at home while staying as comfy as possible, such as walking on a treadmill in pajamas with dim lighting and a Y2K comedy playing in the background. The trend has gained appreciation for its simplicity and unique approach to supporting the body and bringing joy to movement. While cozy cardio may not replace other forms of exercise, it provides a chill and accessible way to break a sweat and improve cardiovascular health.
