I do a half hour of zumba dance every day, does any one know any exercises that would fit into my daily workout regiment? What seem to be the most effective weight loss exercises that you do? Minus going to a gym because I live out in the country and the closest one is at least an hour away.

    There's tons of things you can do using your own body weight..

    Jump rope
    Jog
    Walk
    Prisoner Squats
    Push Ups (there are different types you can do)
    Burpees
    Dips (use 2 chairs)
    Seal Jumps
    Shadow Box
    Mountain Climbers
    Sit ups
    Crunches
    Planks

    The possibilities are endless.

    if you sign up for the Discovery National body Challenge there is a fittness schedule that it will put together for you. It als gives you complete meals everyday, but i dont use it for that part.... the fittness part is done via video on your computer, they are 8-9 mins lond each and really have helped me a lot.... i have two boys so i stay very busy, i am lucky if i can get 45 mins in a night so i will do the routines which include usually a warm up 2 specialized workout (chest, arms, core) and then a cool down then get on the treadmill and it's worked very well. i also live way out in the country so there is no way i am making it to a gym but this series is the best i have found and it's free. ..

    maybe try that 30 day shred as it has some weights etc. It will help you build some more muscle to raise that BMR so you need more calories to survive. :)

    Thanks, I think that would be extremely helpful, considering like you I have almost no extra free time working my 2 full time and 1 part time jobs.
