Lovely Abella talks about going from actress to certified fitness instructor

If you're trying to get in shape from the comfort of your home, why not join Lovely Abella's online classes?

Sometime during the community quarantine, the Kapuso actress and comedian became a certified fitness instructor. Her Facebook page, Lovely's Fitness Squad has already garnered over 62,000 likes.

In an episode of GMA Public Affairs' "New Normal," Lovely showed some HIIT exercises you can do at home.

She also shared that her new venture is something she never expected to happen.

Lovely said that in light of the coronavirus pandemic, she realized that she shouldn't just stick to the one thing she knows.

"Hindi pala pwede na naka-focus lang tayo dahil ito lang ang alam mo. Ang alam ko lang kasi umarte eh, ang alam ko lang magpatawa ng tao eh. Ito lang ang kaya ko," she said.

"Eh nangyari to. Ngayon tignan mo, parang kaya ko pala," she added.

She decided to teach HIIT or High Intensity Interval Training, because it was her strength.

"Kaya ko ituloy tuloy yan ng 45 minutes," she said.

"Alam ko kasi ang HIIT ang the best cardio para mag-lose ka ng weight. At the same time, building ng muscle," she added.
