Whats your Favorite at home Exercise? I Usually make up my own full body workouts incorporating upper, lower, strength, core, and cardio type stuff and Im looking for some more fun exercises! I usually integrate upper and lower body stuff.
My favorite is squat press-ups :-)

    You asked ... and I answered truthfully!!

    But ... if that doesn't count (especially as there's no easy way to log it and I don't think my wife would appreciate me wearing a heart-rate monitor .... LOL), I like to use some of the P90X workouts for my at home routines. I haven't done the full 90-day program in several years, but I still use some of the workouts interspersed with other stuff. Most often, I use the Core Synergistics, Arms/Shoulders, and Cardio X routines ... you've got to be able to block out 45-55 minutes for them though ....

    For weights I LOVE Les Mills Pump and Chalean Extreme. They are different from either low weight/high rep or heavy weight/low rep, so I can't choose a favorite, I love them both. But my favorite cardio is Leslie Sansone. I love all of her Walk Away the Pounds videos. She is just so much fun.

    Yo

    Create your own exercise, choose cals based on how vigorous/duration. Once you input it once, it should stay in your list of exercises.

    Sex shows up in my list of exercises ;-)

    Yeah - I know I can add it in ... just didn't include that on my list of exercises. Could be pretty amusing on the daily tracker when that "pops up" with the "Vince_1964 burned XXX calories today in exercise, including XX minutes of vigorous sex"
