in Fitness and Exercise
Uhm.. Well.. Ive written here before but since Ive abandoned it...
uhm so title says it all, I am looking for easy exercise I can do as a beginner, to get my body used to exercising, and preferably stuff I can do at home (it's becoming summer and going outside is terrible where I live)
Any advice would be appreciated.

Have a good day!
xoxo

    just walking is perfect if you want to start with cardio. I started by just walking and soon after started running. now I run a 5K a month. I started walking at the end of Sept. 2013.

    This might be too "old lady-ish" but the Leslie Sansone Walk Away the Pounds DVDs are easy and you can do them in your own home. Very little space is required.

    Yoga and beginner's pilates are some more ideas. I watch the Cassey Ho/ Blogilates videos (free on YouTube!) and she has LOTS of beginner videos, and on her blog she also has lots of recipes and motivational stuff. ^_^ She is so awesome!

    I would also recommend stretching. just do stretches to get your muscles going. that is a starter.

    Check out FitnessBlender, Youtube, On Demand channels, DVDs etc. to find out what you like to, whether it's cardio, strength training, yoga/pilates etc. There are plenty of body weight exercises (requiring no equipment) that sites like You Are Your Own Gym can teach you. From there you may decide to invest in some equipment.

    I just started the True Beginner program on Dailyburn.com. i really like it and it's not too strenuous but a good workout.

    Try this http://hasfit.com/beginner-workout-program/

    Or create your own from these http://www.fitnessblender.com/ at 1 and 2 difficulty if you are REALLY out of shape, and at 2 and 3 if you are just average out of shape,
