Hey everyone!

I had to cancel my gym membership due some financial issues, so I'm looking for some new ideas for workouts. I am currently involved in bellydancing (great exercise by the way!) and I will be starting hot yoga soon.

Any ideas on good workouts I can do at home, especially since its so cold? I'm definetely not going for anything crazy like Insanity or anything. I have to work up to that level!

Thanks!

    I have found lots of great exercise plans, that require no equipment on pinterest. Here is a link to one I found, sorry I can't post a pic of it...I'm, ahem....at work...lol. http://pinterest.com/pin/254664553898725070/ But there are lots of great ideas on this site!

    Hula hooping is fun! A hoop isn't expensive either. It's fun to put on the music and go! For me it's addictive and hard to stop once I start!

    I use apps on my phone.
    If your phone supports them try 'workout trainer' or 'daily cardio/arms/bums/legs', in fact look these up and loads of others will come up.
    Also research the net cause they are there, you just gotta look.

    I also do step in my step ladder but you can buy the steps, or use bricks, be creative!

    Hope this helps and good luck hun.

    Hula hooping does sound like fun! And inexpensive! ;)

    And I'm at work too, I guess you can all see how productive I am today!
