Your ideal workout, according to your astrological sign

What if, instead of scrolling through the ClassPass app, you could turn to the stars for advice on how to sweat it out today?

As it turns out, your sun sign (which indicates the position of the sun at your time of birth—in other words, the sign that you think of as yours) actually has a strong influence on what sort of fitness appeals to you.

"The sun in astrology represents what you have energy for," says Sandra Sitron, astrologer behind Strong Eye Astrology. "Being the energetic focal point of our solar system, it correlates to the energetic focal point within you and indicates how you want to use your energy out in the world."

So essentially your astrological sign is directly connected to the type of boutique fitness class or physical activity that inspires you, based on your innate preferences. Consider this your legit excuse for splurging on a rock climbing class or investing in horseback riding lessons.

But that's not the only way to find the perfect, sweaty match. Whereas your sun sign workout represents your "internal fire," as Sitron likes to call it, your rising sign—the zodiac sign that was rising over the Eastern horizon at your time of birth—also plays a key role in your physical identity. "This is a great place to look for clues about the best workouts that match your outward personality and your body," notes Sitron. "Those that correlate to your rising sign should feel natural, as if your body was built for it."

Of course, you can use your other signs to help you pinpoint the ultimate workout for every mood. Want to release pent-up tension? Check out the best option according to your moon sign, which Sitron says represents emotions. Having trouble actually getting off the couch and onto a mat? Look to your Mars sign, since the planet is tied to motivation. (Don't know your moon, rising, or Mars sign? Obtain your chart here, or book a session with Sitron herself.)
