    Fill a bag with heavy stuff...heavier the better & squat. Backpacks are great filled like that.

    Haha! I'm soft, squishy and broke! I seriously thought about wearing my 17 mo old in our ergo carrier in place of weights! He is 32lbs, that's heavy enough for now :)

    So excited to have found this. I have dumbbells and can really see myself following this routine since I will just be starting. I cannot do the gym and I am more comfortable at home. I also love that there are videos to show each exercise. Thanks so much for sharing.

    I am a member at a gym and take weight training classes that use dumbbells. The instructor is really really good and very quick to correct your form etc... I am not able to take those classes for two weeks and am lucky enough to have a set of dumbbells. I enjoy the fitness blender videos as well as they give good instruction. I also like the mens health Belly Off video.

    Thanks for the link, I've been using my son's weights but very limited to what I do. Will definitely do the workout but I've just made a huge mistake. I have just showed my son the website so I will have to wait my turn using his weights now. :smile:

    Thanks for posting. I do go to the gym but this is nice to be able to look at if I want to do it at home.
