recommendations for a 15-45 min exercise regime that has no

ronanoo

I'm doing exercise using a few different things found on websites, put together for calorie loss mainly. My situation is i cant afford a gym and due to feet/knees have been told not to run. I feel frustrated because while i'm doing exercise it just feels half hearted and i dont know how to fix it. I want an intense 15-45 min exercise going on you know? any recommendations?

Try Jillian Michaels 30 day shred DVD Only $9 at Target. 20 min work out. Awesome

p said feet and knee problems that JM stuff will totally make the situation worse (thanks for the bad advice)
A heavy bag would work for you, upper body cardio will give your lower body issues some rest. Hit the bad for 20min and you'll get a great workout.

www.T-Tapp.com Great 15-20 minute workout that tones your body, or one of her longer (30-45min) ones... She is a rehabilitative trainer, and developed her workouts based on what heals, etc. Its not easy - don't let the time fool you. Nothing is hard on joints.

Get a bicycle off freecycle or a garage sale.
Or try some exercise DVDs from your local library.
Not sure how you'd feel about it as a guy, but I like bellydance as a workout. It's low impact and helps with posture and core muscles... And where it's from, guys definitely dance too

buy a bike..pedal it as fast as you can. i can not have any impact exercises as part of my day. find some hills, walk up and down them. then walk up and down them again.

I have to wear a brace with the Jillian Michaels 30 day shred. There are a lot of things in it you might not be able to use but there are a lot of things that you will.

There are a lot of jumping exercises though. She has a lot of strength training too. You might get plenty out of it for the 9 dollars you find.

I dont run either but I still walk. And you can walk enough for exercise if you go far enough fast enough. I recommend that no matter what you do get good shoes.

A bike or swimming would be good exercise, Pilates is good for stretching and gets the muscles working but it doesn't build up a sweat like some workouts do I guess. Some low impact dancing would also be good, gets your heart rate up but doesn't require you to run.

there are alot of free workouts online, bodyrocktv.com or scotthermanfitness.com have some really good workouts

Tiffany Rothe on Youtube. A lot of her videos are sans footwork or jumping! I was doing her stuff with shin splints while they healed.

It hasn't bothered my knees or feet. Stick it.

I love Jillian Michaels but definitely wouldn't recommend her workout DVDs if you have knee/feet problems. You can try Leslie Sansone's Walk Away the Pounds for a lower impact workout. I would also recommend a mini stationary bike for a very low impact workout. There are many to choose from on amazon.com and they're super convenient and easy to use. Good luck!
