    I do now! I was going to the gym but used to find it a chore to go, so I started doing bits at home and now I love it. I have a step aerobic box which I use for some cardio and to get the heart pumping. I have kettlebells at 3 different weights, dumbbells and barbell with weights, skipping rope and hula hoop (for when it's sunny and I want to head in to the garden) and I have just discovered fitness blender on youtube.

    I really like doing my exercise at home, my hubby sometimes joins in and it's easier to fit around the kids too :)

    I do, when I do. I have a treadmill and that's mostly what I do. I used my bicycle yesterday and that was a pretty good burn. Sometimes I do squats and pushups at home and sometimes I swing a kettlebell at home.

    Hi Jerome,
    I almost bought a kettlebell yesterday. I might get it later today.

    I love exercising at home and I love using Fitness Blender's YouTube channel...I have an adjustable kettle-bell, Sportblock adjustable dumbbells and I have a treadmill I use as well. So much easier to fit in with the kids schedules!

    Quoting my own post here as I forgot to mention that I only started weight loss and exercise 4 days ago. And bought all my equipment a couple of days ago. My boyfriends thinks I've gone over the top.
    And I want to loose 7 and a half stone

    Hi. Push ups every day. I do them all the time. When I'm at work I do 30 reps on a 10 minute break and 50 on a 30 minute break. Plus biking, I get out and do several miles of biking, I have free weights at the house and a weight bench but push ups and biking make up most of my exercise besides sex. lol

    I mainly workout at home. Although I need to get more into it. I wake up for work at 4am and don't get home till 6:30pm so I needed a gym at home. It's in our shop currently, but I plan on cleaning out the garage Friday and moving it to there because the shop is detached from our home and when I workout it's either while the kids are awake so they're digging around tools in the shop, or it's when they're in bed so I'm worried if they're getting out of bed. So, needless to say, I haven't worked out as much as I should recently. But I have a treadmill, curl bench, bench press, pullup bar, suspension straps, dumbbells, stationary bike, and an incline bench.

    I workout from home and love it. I use Dumbbells, weight plates, bench and variety of DVDs . I usually walk/run on neighborhood track but in case of rain I use my treadmill. Always looking for motivating & supportive friends if interested.
