I have been sick for 2 weeks and haven't the energy to do a full workout, so I started a project instead!:tongue:
We made a "gym" room in our house!!!:smile:
...Sanded the floors and cleared out a little nook of a room, and boom, we have a little gym!
I found a treadmill for $50 on craigslist, acquired a few free weights and a yoga mat, and I'm all set!
Nothing beats biking or running outside, but I'm infinitely thankful for the ability to do a little workout whenever I so chose.
No excuses because of bad weather!
I did 5 miles on the treadmill today in 2 sessions.
I was so excited about the new gym that after dinner, I decided to do an extra 2 miles!
I strongly encourage everyone to designate a space in their house to do yoga, run, lift weights, pop in a DVD, whatever you can do!
There is no space too small to fit a few things and yourself.
What's more is now everyone in the house is free to use it as they please!
Just wanted to share.
Hope all is going well with all of you!
Cheers!
