I have started a new work out that works well at home.

I have started a new work out app I found on my phone.I do walk for 30 minutes outside to get my legs to relax.My muscle are sore.So I know I am working towards my goal.I just dont like going outside in the middle of winter to go to the gym.So I thought why not work in doors in my own home instead of getting off of work and the drive to the gym in cold harsh winter weather.Why not just start a full work out at home.With things around the house to use.Its what I have been doing.I want to get treadmill so I can walk in doors.But I have no idea where I could afford one on a budget any suggestions.

fitnessblender.com is the website to check out...free videos for a variety of fitness levels, many with little to no equipment

check craig's list or ebay for a second hand one maybe? Or if you'd feel safer with a guarantee, there's stores that will sell both new and used equipment and you might be able to buy something used with a warranty. Last thought - some gyms will sell their old equipment when they upgrade to new, but again you never know what state it'll be in...
- As an aside, if you want to mix it up a little, there's plenty of at home workouts you can find on youtube, fitnessblender etc. as well. Good luck!

I got our treadmill on craigslist about 5 years ago. It's a Proform. Great machine, no bells and whistles, 4 workouts. It's probably 10 years old already. Go to Sears or D*ck's Sprorting goods and get a maintenance kit and keep the rollers lubed and the underside of the belt lubed and clean.

I bought an elliptical on Amazon for pretty cheap. I have the Horizon EX-69. There are also inexpensive treadmills on Amazon. This one has 4 stars and is only $199 with free shipping: http://www.amazon.com/Confidence-Power-Motorized-Electric-Treadmill/dp/B004TGWUPE/ref=sr_1_16?s=exercise-and-fitness&ie=UTF8&qid=1415883715&sr=1-16&keywords=treadmill

It's not as fancy or flashy as ones you'd find at the gym, but it does the job.

I also second using FitnessBlender. I do a 15 minute yoga routine 3-4 times a week. I love it. It really helps with leg and back stretching.

I would love to work out at the gym, but because of my work schedule, if I actually went to the gym to work out I wouldn't get home until sometime between 8-9pm every night and I have to be back in bed by 10:30-11pm.

So, I have a recumbant exercise bike that was bought at D1cks about 8 years ago. I do an hour a day 6 days a week on that on max resistance. I recently ordered a bench from Amazon for about $80 and I ordered a set of U 70 powerblocks and two kettle bell handles for them. This fits nice and compactly in my living room and the bench can even be used as extra seating in a pinch.

I do have a bench and 300lbs of weight in the basement, but...

1) I don't like working out in the basement.

2) I have no one to spot for me as my son works a different shift than I do.

Once the powerblocks get here, I'm hoping this will work out well for me.

I also work out at home. I use fitness apps on my smart phone and I got a Bowflex in the bulletin board. We also have an Elliptical.
