No time for a gym

if you have Wii get a workout game for it....our apartment is a 2 bedroom and not the biggest and there is me, my husband, our son and our cat.

my family uses video games like wii fit and the xbox kinect system. also some tv services that have on demand have fitness stuff like yoga and aerobics

Many apartment complexes offer a small gym. If yours has one, use it. If not, go with Wii, P90X, Insanity, or buy some running shoes and hit the pavement.

Kettlebells... but really watch your form as you could hurt yourself if not doing proper movements.

Pick up workout dvds... There are TONS of options... low impact to high intensity.

Go for walks/runs - couch25k

pushups, sit-ups - walk to park and start doing pull-ups. You have a ton of variety at your fingertips... just need to get up and move

All of the ideas everyone else has listed are awesome...but to keep some money in your pocket...pull out that laptop, and head to youtube.com for some bodyrocktv....tons of videos on there that are short, but high intensity!!! let me know if this helps! follow me on ig @missfitjunkie.

I'm starting the 30 Day Shred this week! I can't wait lol
It's on YouTube, 27 minutes a day!

I thought the same thing, but I have to make time! I am a single mother, I take my daughter with me sometimes. She is 5 yrs old. Even if its for 30 minutes, she will sit and watch, coach, and sometimes I take her to the kiddie area, but most times she will sit and watch everyone. (she likes that better!) After I exercise, I treat her to 30-45 minutes of swimming! I definitely would check that out before investing in any home equipment like dumbbells or sorts that you might outgrow within a couple of months!

Insanity! It's a dvd that uses only your body weight and it's well worth the price! I've had so much trouble losing weight and this did it for me! In literally a week I saw changes (me and my workout buddy take weekly pictures). This is the best investment of my life

You don't really need any equipment, your body is enough to start with. Check out the bodyweight training group here. I also recommend Mark Lauren's book, "You Are your own Gym" and the android app (if you have an android phone) of the same name, although both cost money.

i went on ebay and I got my weights. Supreme 90 day is $20 or lower you can use the weights and it is a good program!

kettlebells or resistance bands

Dumbbells. Most versatile piece of gym equipment you can use. There are literally hundreds of moves you can do, and not just with your arms. Legwork can be done too, core work, everything.

Totally agree! I wrecked my foot earlier this year to where I was on crutches for 2 months (talk about a killer arm workout! lol!) but I couldn't go to the gym as I couldn't drive (Hubz had to drive me everywhere since we both have manual shifts) and all I had at home was a mat, 3, 5, 8 & 10lbs dumbbells. I know a lot of moves already but you can also find SOOOO many on youtube or other web sites. I couldn't stand, so everything I did was either sitting or laying down & I actually lost 6 lbs during this time - without being able to do any cardio (well, I didn't count our weekly 3 hour shopping trips to Walmart, BJ's, Lowes, etc while I was running around on crutches but I should have - I'd come home & need to shower & change from sweating, I was a PRO on those things )

What are Jumping Jacks?
