Virgin Media customers unlock free money-saving TV upgrade TODAY that's perfect for the summer
VIRGIN Media is offering customers a free upgrade on their TV just in time for summer.
The broadcasting giant routinely dishes out premium channel offers throughout the year but this time around it's got something a little different.
2
Households with Virgin TV can access a little-known workout app on their box completely free.
Fit at Home usually costs £10 per month.
But for a limited time, viewers can hop off the couch and workout for free.
The platform is home to a range of exercise and wellness classes including Pilates, Dumbbells & Fit, as well as meditation, without needing to hit the gym.
There are also guided workouts that only require body weight and dance classes suitable for children to participate in.
Virgin Media is offering three month's access for free, saving £30.
"It is our mission to provide customers the best possible value from their Virgin TV package, so we are thrilled to be offering three months access to Fit at Home at no extra cost," said David Bouchier Chief TV and Entertainment Officer at Virgin Media O2.
"From the comfort of their own home, customers will benefit from professionally led workouts, physiotherapy programs and so much more, without the need to shell out on a gym membership."
The app is available to customers with a Virgin TV 360 or Stream box.
Just head to the Apps area on your TV, select the Fit at Home app and scan the QR code that appears with your phone.
The freebie will be up for grabs until June 30.

Samsung TVs are also affected by the move TUNE OUT Sports channel disappears from millions of Virgin Media TV boxes – but there's another way to keep watching for FREE A MUCH-LOVED sports channel has disappeared from Virgin Media boxes this week - but there's a way to continue enjoying the matches for free.

The move provided viewers with access to the UEFA Women's Champions League, Liga F, Saudi Women's Premier League and more via a dedicated linear channel. On Virgin Media, the channel sat at number 554 and was streamed. It was available on other platforms too like Samsung TV Plus, by tapping 4637 on your remote.

The sports streaming giant has confirmed to The Sun that the channel has indeed parted ways. But the same women's football content will remain accessible - and free. "At the time of launching the channel of Virgin Media, DAZN's free account model was not yet live," a DAZN spokesperson said.

"Since the launch of our free platform last year, all our women's football content has been free to watch and this barrier to entry no longer exists meaning all audiences can watch the content natively on DAZN for free."

Those not with Virgin Media can find the app on smart TVs too. Advertisement RECENT CHANNEL CHANGES TV services are constantly evolving with new channels launching and others closing. The most recent high profile closure was that of ITVBe, which ended after more than 10 years of broadcasting. Most of the big reality series on the channel, like TOWIE, have moved over to ITV2. Fortunately, ITV hasn't left a huge gap on your TV guides as a result of the move. Instead, ITVBe's slot has been replaced by a new channel, ITV Quiz, filled with some of the network's biggest game shows. Image credit: ITV

Crew Clothing enters activewear space
British lifestyle brand Crew Clothing, known for its nautical-inspired casualwear, has unveiled a new technical activewear collection for men and women. The 'Crew Sport' range is described as the lifestyle brand's first 'holistic activewear collection' and has been designed to combine technical performance with the premium British brand's signature style, offering men's and womenswear pieces for all lifestyles, abilities and fitness levels. Launching mid-June online and across the Crew Clothing store estate, the 'Crew Sport' collection aims to offer 'true versatility' with styles designed for low-impact yoga and reformer Pilates, to higher-intensity Hyrox workouts and padel games, as well as running. 'Crew Sport' activewear collection from Crew Clothing Credits: Crew Clothing Commenting on the expansion into activewear, Naomi Parry, head of marketing at Crew Clothing, said in a statement: 'Entering the sportswear space feels like a natural progression for Crew. Born out of a Salcombe windsurfing shop, we launched our very first collection with rugby shirts designed by a GB skier – sport is in our DNA. 'In the last decade we've built on our sporting legacy through our sponsorship partnerships with Henley Royal Regatta, the LTA and the England Red Roses rugby team, and Crew Sport is the next step in our journey. We know our customers live active, varied lifestyles, and we think this new collection will be the ideal addition to their wardrobe.' 'Crew Sport' activewear collection from Crew Clothing Credits: Crew Clothing Crew Clothing launches first-ever technical sportswear collection Key styles include 'Seam-Free' flattering crop tops and leggings crafted from nylon elastane fabric and jacquard panels, alongside pieces in buttery-soft fabric designed to offer ease of movement while remaining breathable with sweat-wicking features, and 'Bi-Stretch' styles with ergonomic seams that follow the body's natural contours and have UPF50+ protection. The range also includes a dedicated running jacket, gilet and shorts with lightweight woven fabric and reflective detailing, as well as a technical capsule featuring full and half-zip track tops made from breathable, sweat-wicking fabric with four-way stretch for performance and recovery. 'Crew Sport' activewear collection from Crew Clothing Credits: Crew Clothing Jo Miller, head of design at Crew Clothing, added: 'Designed to transcend age, gender and fitness level, our new athleticwear collection blends our timeless heritage with cutting-edge details. Fabrics have been crafted with performance in mind – from compact nylon elastane styles, which will hold you in for optimal movement to super soft, drapey pieces that are ideal for your next yoga session. 'We've become known for our signature touches over the years, and you'll find that here too. Whether it's the unrestrictive storm flap on our running gilet or the thumb holes on our track top, we've thought through all the little details. Look out for our iconic crossed oars – we've reimagined these in a high visibility reflective print and included this throughout the collection.' Prices for 'Crew Sport' range from 25 to 65 pounds. The collection will be available through its website and its 41 stores from June 17.
