    Running up and down the stairs 5 times really gets the heart going. And it's free!

    Are you in a relationship of any sort? :bigsmile:

    jk! Get a jump rope. It burns some serious calories in a short amount of time. I bust mine out when I need to get a quick 10 minute workout in. Be warned...it is HARD! haha But you will be sweaty by the end.

    There's almost nothing you can't do with a yoga mat and exercise bands. takes a little research and teaching yourself.
    but it works. and you don't have to jump either. Some places people live you can't.

    I've lost 42lbs so far and have never stepped foot in a gym. Started out simply walking because my stamina was horrible. Did Leslie Sansone's Walk Away the Pounds, moved on to Zumba, Brazil Butt Lift, then P90x, now I'm on my 4th week of Insanity. There is so many videos available through youtube and also Netflix or Blockbuster.

    Good Luck :)

    Skipping is great. My boyfriend makes me skip :-/ I get puffed out pretty fast but it's a lot of fun and doesnt feel like I'm "working out" so to speak. I'm going to die though, he's making a fitness program for me.........

    I also have gone onto youtube and down some of the excersices on there. I got very inspired by BodyRock. Also I did 4 months of boot camp so I incorporate some of the things I learnt there like, pushups, burpees (they get you fit fast) sit ups, star jumps and the plank. They sound easy but done regularly they will get you toned and lean.

    Also I just bought some Zumba DVDs and reading other posts it seems like a great fun thing to do.

    Hope this helps :D

    Tons of jumping jacks and standard exercises you'd learn in something as simple as PE class in school. Or military exercises. Some simple research can do you good. Touching your toes, cherry pickers, wallsits, squats, all sorts of easy things (but hard if you do enough.)

    walk more, sounds silly but it really does work... i park farther away from the store than normal. also make sure if i don't need a cart i dont get one, and make myself carry everything around the store :)

    I think the best thing to do that is motivating at home is youtube videos ! :) blogilates, bexlife, arfit etc...
