How can I do a simple, everyday workout to keep me toned at home…with little or no equipment?

March 172010

This summer, I’d like to keep in shape, without spending money at a gym or expensive exercise equipment.

Soup cans! What I like to do is capable of accomplishing while watching tv. Just mererly get two soup cans and a pillow. During commercial break sit up straight on top of the pillow with your knees supporting you,at normal distance apart from each other.lift the cans shoulder distance apart, and squeeze in your shoulder blades while you slowly lift them up and down. Repeat until your show comes back on.

I hope thats helpful. :)

I need to exercise, I have equipment here at home. But don’t use. How do I get motivated?

March 152010

I have a treadmill, exercise bike, abdominal exerciser and a hip and thigh buster. I have used them, but not lately. I have become lazy. How do I get motivated? I cannot afford to go to a gym. I have noticed I am not as toned as I used to be. Any advice on how to motivated for exercise would help. Thanks!

If you’re finding you’re a couch potato, set your workout equipment up within view of the tv and pick a particular time ex. between 7-8 o’clock and exercise at that time every night or every second night whatever you decide your schedule should be. Keep in mind you won’t see the results you’re looking for with less than five days a week of working out.

what are some must have tools for at home exercise?

March 142010

What are some of your favorite pieces of equipment? Can’t afford a big home gym.

What kind of exercise can I do in my home?

March 122010

I want to lose weight, but am ashamed of exercising in public due to my size. I’m eating more healthily, but that alone is not enough to cause the kind of weight loss I need.

I can’t afford to buy gym equipment.

Is there any exercise I can do in my home to lose weight?

I go to the library and check out various "for beginners" and "dummies" and "wimps" videos and dvds. (Now, all I have to do is put one in the machine. =) If your library uses the dewey decimal system, they are mostly in the 613.xxx section.

Seriously, though, this is a good way to find the type of exercise that works best for you without spending a bunch of money on videos or equipment.

My absolute best to you!

-Z (been there, done that) VT

addendum:
ktrb has very good advice, as well. Yoga and Pilates are concepts I can stay with forever!

what gym exercise is good for slimming down thighs for men?

March 102010

it could be gym equipment, or a simple workout at home. give me options people!!!

Why would you want to slip down your thighs?? The bigger and more muscular the better. If you work out your thighs, they will just get more muscular which is what girls like. If you mean loosing fat? I suggest running long distance.

what home gym machine could subsidise for a rowing machine?

March 82010

i am a rower and i cannot buy a rowing machine due to space limitation. i am wondering if i should by an exercise bike or any other type of gym equipment costing around £300. the machine would have to concentrate on thigh muscles and it would be good if it could excercise my arms, back and abs aswell.

I had a Bowflex that had a seated row attachment with a sliding seat, mimicking a rowing machine. It folded up, too, so it didn’t take up a whole lot of space when I wasn’t using it. Check ebay for used Bowflex Ultimate machines- you can probably pick one up for about $5-700 or so. Check out Bowflex’s website, www.bowflex.com. Personally, though, I’d go with a good exercise bike (or bicycle) for cardio, and some free weights for strength exercises (if you have the room).

I’m dirt broke and it’s freezing out. What are some ways I can exercise and workout?

March 82010

I play DDR every day, but that eventually gets boring. I can’t afford a gym memborship or any real at home exercise equipment. Any suggestions? I don’t want to get ripped or anything, but I want to work out more for the mental benefit than anything else. I hate being lazy!

I used to go out and jog. Go get a good face mask and long under-ware. Go for it! You won’t believe how much better you will feel! Even when it snowed, I would still go outside since I bought a pair of cleats so not even the ice would stop me.
