Hey there and thoughts of what I should do

I am a school student and I wake up at 6 in the mourning and get half and hour by myself, what are some activities that I could do in that time without waking my mother or sisters up

    As in fitness activities? Or just activities in general?

    Jump online, there are plenty of 30 minute workout routines available that involve ab crunches, dips, planks, push ups, squats etc... You can print a few different ones off and keep them in your room for when you have an extra 30 minutes to spare. These things can be done without equipment and will help you reach your goals.

    If you don't have a computer in your room or a smartphone you can use for videos, watch them elsewhere (home, school, library) and take notes of what to do. Maybe buy a fitness magazine. If all else fails, just do some push ups, crunches, planks, side dips, mountain climbers, lunges, squats, et cetera. :smile:

    These are all basic exercises to help you get started. They are all a little difficult to explain in a comment box but you are on the message forums so must have some internet access, I would recommend a Google search. YouTube is better as it is more visual so if you can somehow gain access to that, it will help with your knowledge and correct form.

    I know some AMAZING fitness programs that actually work! They have a couple that are only 30 minutes too. Do you think that is something you would want to try?

    If you have an MP3 or other music device with headphones, you could do some light dancing. Either that or a bit of yoga! You can probably find plenty of books about the poses & stretches from the library.

    walk the dog? join a team at school, or a gym. Find a friend who is interested in fitness as well, and go together. Check out the library, "fitness for dummies" is one that I've read, and it's pretty good. Glad to hear you want to be healthy and fit!

    I found a book at the library called the womens health big book of 15 minute exercises. A lot of them can be done with no equipment.
