I need ideas on how i can get in good workouts at home for a few weeks. I have a gym membership at my school but during December I only have a few exams and other than those I won't be making the trip there (it's in a different city and takes ~40 mins to get there). I don't really want to pay for any videos or anything because it will only be until January. I just don't want to lose the progress I made over the last couple of months because I can't work out. I know I need to eat well and I do, but with the holidays I know there will be days I indulge so I'd like to keep up with the workouts just to balance that. Ideas?

    I highly recommend Jillian Michael's 30 Day Shred. It costs about $10 and it's a 20 minute workout that will make you feel like you've been at it for hours!

    If you go to Walmart in their fitness section they have several DVDs for $10 like Jilian Michaels and Biggest Loser.

    I have a blog where I film all of my workouts and share the breakdown of reps for free. It's just a way for me to track my fitness journey, and keep teaching fitness while I am in school. It has youtube videos of everything I do.

    www.fitnessbender.com

    It's all home workouts, because I believe everyone should be able to work out and stay fit for free. I don't have the time to spend going back and forth to the gym.

    If you don't want to buy anything, libraries usually have a ton of stuff. You can do Jari Love DVDs to get an AWESOME strength training workout (about 50 min. long) & you only need some simple weights (If you have some 4-8lb weights available).

    Netflix also has a bunch of workout videos on instant streaming, if the house you're going to has Netflix... :)

    There are also lots of things on YouTube (like people who taped zumba classes), and a cool site called BODYROCK.tv with free INTENSE workouts.

    There are NO excuses! :)

    This is illegal and immoral. These companies will go out of business if everybody does this. It's no different to stealing.
