Katie Taylor is streaming series of boxing fitness videos - to keep you active throughout lockdown

KATIE TAYLOR has announced that she'll be broadcasting a series of online boxing fitness videos for anyone looking to stay active during lockdown.

The Olympic gold medalist took to social media to talk about the series, encouraging her followers to keep fit and stay healthy.

Her tutorials feature a number of physical exercises that you can do from home, without the need for any equipment.

The Bray native uploaded the first episode to her Twitter and Instagram pages.

"Hi all," she tweeted, "I will be posting a series of boxing circuits over the next few weeks that you can do at home without equipment.

"Here is the first installment. I hope you enjoy it.

"Stay safe, healthy and strong."

Exercises in the video include things like squats, lunges, punches, leg raises and fast feet shuffles.

With so many unable to leave the house, keeping and fit (and keeping yourself from going crazy) are rightfully high on the agenda at the moment.

If your usual running route is getting a bit tedious, or you just fancy staying indoors to exercise, these circuits are perfect.

Conor McGregor was quick to applaud her idea, replying to Taylor's tweet by saying he'll be "giving this a go tonight".
