Research shows that we are becoming increasingly unhealthy, partly because people exercise less during the lockdown. If it is up to Dutch DJ / producer MOTi something must be done about this. Since the start of the lockdown, he has been at home just like his fellow DJs colleagues, but doing nothing is not an option. Working from his studio MOTi started to focus on a new project called BODYWORX, with which he produces workout music.
MOTi started BODYWORX in 2019 as he was looking for music that could motivate him during his workouts, but couldn’t find it anywhere. He started experimenting with dance music and uplifting lyrics and made songs that work perfect for your workout. Despite the fact that he immediately received a lot of positive reaction, after putting the music online, BODYWORX became a serious project during the first lockdown early 2020. This was partly due to the fact that more people had to exercise at home and the need for good workout music rose. Within no time BODYWORX amassed 45 million streams and those numbers are still rising rapidly. Collaborations soon followed with popular brands like Les Mills, FunXtion and most recently with Dutch actress and influencer Yolanthe Cabau for her CABAU lifestyle app.
MOTi: “I started making music under the name BODYWORX to motivate myself during workouts. After the first releases I received a lot of positive reactions and I noticed that there was a great need for this kind of music, so I continued with it. Now BODYWORX has become bigger than I could have imagined at first.”

You can find videos of High Intensity Interval Training (HIIT), but also follow yoga and meditation sessions and you can also find everything about nutrition and mental health.
