Ready to turn your space into a free fitness class studio with a Netflix subscription? Here’s how to ‘just stream’.
How to stream Nike Training Club classes on Netflix
First, use your credentials to log in to your Netflix account on the device you want to stream your workout (TV, smartphone, laptop, etc.).
Once logged into your account, enter “Nike Training Club” in the search bar like you would search for any show or movie.
Simply search Netflix on your designated streaming device to access 10 free programs, including multiple fitness episodes. Christina Darby/ZDNET
When Netflix generates your search results, you will be able to choose from 10 different programs. Choose a program that makes you feel like moving. After sitting down and running a marathon at work, I personally enjoy the “Fall Into Vinyasa Yoga” program.

Selecting a show will drop down a list of episodes.
Note: You don’t have to do your workouts in chronological order. Choose the one that sounds the most fun, takes the most time, or does several in a row.
Once you choose a workout, a guided sweating session will start streaming, just like any other show on Netflix.
Now you can consider canceling other fitness subscriptions and gym memberships to save money.
