My shins need a break from running and 30 day shred. Does anyone have any good suggestions for youtube videos or any fitness videos available on netflix I can do in the meantime at home? I have hand weights, but not super skilled with them yet :)

Thanks in advance!!

    I find that the "Crunch" videos on Netflix are pretty good for at home workouts! There's something for everyone!

    There's a good program called Great Arms Guaranteed that focuses specifically on upper body workouts. It's only $9.95 and there's also Great Abs Guaranteed, also $9.95. If you don't find anything you like on You Tube, let me know and I'll show you where you can purchase these :)

    For Chest you can do pushups. You can do a variety of types. Regular standard ones, Feet up on a chair, etc... For shoulders you could do side raises and front raises with the weights as well as shoulder presses. For back you can do pull ups, plank rows, and regular rows. For core you could do some leg raises, planks, crunches with or without holding weights. When I don't feel like going to the gym that's what I do or if I am at a hotel gym with limited machines that's what I will do. There are plenty of books that have at home type of workouts one can do with limited amount of weights. Men's Health has a book called the Big Book of Exercises you can check out.
