    Walk around the house or do jumping jacks.

    Tons of free walking (and other) workouts on youtube. You can do these from the comfort of your home.

    Okay, so I live in Arizona and it is HOT! I thought me saying that it's way too hot to walk was an excuse, but I walked down the street and almost died!! It's 120 degrees (yes, you read that right) and walking was my main source of exercise! My gym costs too much and I can't get there every week, so what should I do for exercise that I can do either in the shade or inside my home? Any ideas? I've been doing extremely well with clean eating and have been losing a lot of weight only doing that, but I feel I need to work out at least three times a week!

    I'm also in Arizona (Mesa to be exact)! I'm already sick of this heat!! I walk my dog at 5:30 in the morning and it's still freakin' hot. We invested in a treadmill earlier in the year, it's been a life saver for my running passion!

    Unfortunately I live in a town with about 7,000 people and no mall or anywhere that's really big. My friend is gonna bring over her Zumba for me to use Friday. I do have Amazon Prime though, I didn't know that they had exercise videos.
    Oh, and I totally meant three times a week.

    LOVE LOVE LOVE ZUMBA. There's actually tons and tons of zumba workouts of varying levels on YouTube. I used to to do it every day (and still should be doing, actually...).

    Put on some music and have dance party. Even if it's a party of one..it's more fun than walking in place. IMHO.

    F-that! I live in the UP of Michigan and I'm dying when it hits the 80s! Then I'm out for walks at night when it cools off into the 40s-60s. Is advise the same but I assume it never gets much cooler.

    My sincerest condolences!
