What are some of everyone's favorite workouts that don't involve equipment? I go to the gym in the morning, but would like something to do at home after work? I am ready for an advanced workout that lasts 25 to 30 minutes to just get some extra calories burned! I've been working out 2x a day for a few months, and I think it is helping because I've had some compliments.:blushing:

    heard of "insanity" workouts. they just use body weight.
    i'm interested myself but will have to do the test first. another beachbody product but it generally involves a lot of jumping about lol. just kidding.

    Thanks!! She is the love of my life....don't tell my hubby :wink:

    It's really hot here too right now, but in the mornings it is do-able. But I know what you mean because I cannot, will not go running when it is scorching out.

    I have Comcast (cable tv) and there are On-Demand fitness videos. I've just started Biggest Loser Yoga. There are lots of other excercise videos too. I test them all out, Lesley's walking videos and the Biggest Loser videos are my favorites.
