    Get out and walk/run/cycle? Or dance around your lounge room?

    Does it need to happen at home, or you mean just not in a gym / on your own? What equipment do you have? What do you like doing?

    Have a look at fitnessblender.com They have tons of videos of complete workouts and a good search feature where you can search for the kind of training you want, time frame, and equipment you have available.

    Insanity doesn't need any equipment

    I second Insanity. Amazon has a really good deal on P90X this time of year (same company) so you probably will find the same with Insanity.

    I hate cardio but I do really like this. It's tough, but varied and definitely improves your fitness!

    I've not got time for the gym by the time I get in from work, so it would need to be something to do at home, or near by. And I wouldn't go swimming! Not the best at it lol. I've started doing squats but need some cardio too. I have a bike thing but never used it!

    Run in place, jumping jacks, mountain climbers, push-ups, high knees, lunges, squats, punches etc...that's just a few. I do all these and rotate them around for 30 minutes.

    There are some great body weight exercises on the Internet, YouTube etc. This one seems pretty popular and often recommended

    @star1407, you beat me to it! I love the nerd fitness routine.
    One can start easy, then build off it as you improve, and with no equipment it travels well :)

    Cheers, h.

    It's something I've recently been reading up on and I'm inclined to try it out. I have a chronic pain illness so I thought it might be a gentle way for me to add some exercise. Have you been doing it long? I'm interested in hearing your results if you'd like to share
