Anyone else only working out at home ONLY

Resistance bands give you the best bang for your buck, especially if you buy some that are interchangeable or have different bands for different resistances.

I also work out at home... it's the only thing that works for me. I don't have time to get to the gym, workout, then back home. I've been working out at home since 1998. I mostly use DVD's. I have all of Cathe Friedrich... she's the absolute best!!! Nothing better. I also have Insanity, P90X, George St-Pierre, Jillian, you name it ... I probably have it... I'm addicted to fitness DVD's. I also have a treadmill for those days when it's freezing. My latest purchase is a spin bike... love it! Easy on my joints... not getting any younger. I also walk a lot, we own a cottage on the beach... this is when I walk for miles with a weighted vest on the days I can get there. For anyone starting out at home.... buy some Cathe Friedrich DVD's.... she's fantastic. She's the one that got me to fall in love with working out at home 25 years ago.

I belonged to a gym for years, pretty consistently; I was a regular, always there through the waves of people who start in January every year and then quit around February or March. I would get up at 5am to workout for an hour before work and I just hated it (plus I wasn't paying attention to my eating at the time so it was good for fitness but not for weight loss).

Last summer I started working out at home with Jillian DVDs (30DS, RI30) and kettlebells and I've never felt better. I've cut my workout time in half by no longer needing to commute to/from the gym and have cut the every increasing gym expenses as well (the cost of the DVDs+kettlebells were equivalent to 2 months of gym membership). When the weather warms up I plan to walk and bike and do other non-gym activities. Nothing against the gym-lovers but I'm going to need a pretty compelling reason to go back.

ME TOO EXACTLY! I was a regular at my gym 3-4x a week for the last 3 years. But with a change in job location, and now being able to walk to and from work, working out in my basement is my new favourite thing. I have a full weight bench/weights down there, a treadmill, and I got my hands on Jillian's 30 Day Shred. LOVE IT!!! Love not smelling that awful smell at the gym, love not having to commute, love being in the comfort of my own home with the music blasting. And I love that I can completely motivate myself. :-)

I can't afford my gym membership anymore.
I do Jillian Michaels DVDs.

I work out at home because I feel happiest in surroundings that I Love. I get my energy from natural light so I am outside walking and playing tennis just for fun. My husband bought me a treadmill last year, and I use it in the morning and when the weather is bad.Shake weight for my arms work really well believe it or not. ( once ya get past the laughing), from feeling silly. But, you can burn calories doing just about anything. Just keep track. I use the map my walk app too. Its great at adding yr miles and calories burned. I also walk 3 miles to the store on nice days. I also enjoy belly dancing, Zumba, and Island dance workout. Give me at home work out any day! Next step...maybe starting a walking group ?:)

I work out at home, too. I have a variety of cardio and strength training DVDs, weights, bands, and a jump rope. I did a boot camp for a month (groupon), but the others in the group were 15-20 years younger than me. I don't want the expense of a gym. Eventually, I would like to have a trainer to help me with my strength training, but like the gym membership, can't add the expense right now.

Definitely love working out at home. I do have a treadmill which I use a few days a week, workout vids, 2 sets of free weights and used to jump rope. TONS of free workouts on youtube leaves me never bored. I do cardio, cardio with strength 2 days a week, and yoga stretching every day with Denise Austin. Harvey Pasternak 5 factor fitness is a great book for home workouts as is Body For LIfe which also has the whole plan free online. Good luck and I think that whatever makes you want to get up and move is the best thing to look for I have also found that the public libraries have a lot of workout DVDs and health/fitness books, so you could get some ideas for free that way as well.

I work out from home also. I use the Leslie Sansone Walk away the pounds dvds. Love them and have been losing weight with them.

My wife hated the gym but not I got her turbofire she's managed to do it every day for nearly a month bar 1 yoga workout.

Myself I love working out at home and saving wasting time with a commute. I still go to a couple of classes at the gym just for variety.

Would recommend www.dailyhiit.com or Insanity/Turbofire for home workouts

I have just started to work out at home, and it is a bummer for me because I dont have the motivation to do it.... but we can afford a gym membership right now so im looking for good you tube videos, etc.... any suggestions?
