If you cannot do any of the above mentioned workouts because of weather or because of space, you can go to Youtube.com and type in “Fat Burning Cardio Workout - 37 Minute Fitness Blender Cardio Workout at Home.” Any of these “Fitness Blender” workouts on Youtube are pretty decent though their presentation is slightly boring. Also, T25 videos are available on line here: https://www.iqiyi.com/w19rs4ug4h9.html
