heres an idea I have, tommorow I am making an "at home gym"! At my house we have old weights,one machine,some yoga mats, random workout tapes and some extra workout materials like bands, boards ect....I am going to designate a space in the attic by our tv as a workout station, with a boom box and everything! I think this would be a great idea for the winter and someone who likes to work out at home! If you dont have any workout material at all and you cant afford to buy some, you can used canned food as weights, do little things like deignate little areas to dance like crazy (yes its a workout if you do it long enough) and lay out a towel and print out palietes and yoga moves from the interet and do them there....plus you can make this gym as cute as you want! you can decorate it with pictures, boas, whatever you want! I think AN IN HOME GYM! is a great idea, if you need any ideas or help...just leave a reply and ill get back to ya!

Thats not a crunch, thats a situp. A crunch is when you sit the same way but you only go up high enough so that your shoulder blades are off the ground. There harder than situps because you can't just throw yourself up, you have to go slow enough so that you go far enough but now to far. In gym we have to do 45 of them and we do them really fast to...there hard but good exersise. Some other exersises are pushups (modified or normal), jumping jacks, a exersise video like Pilates or Dance Dance Revoulution (I've never tried that one but a lot of people on here use it), Richard Simmons or something like that. You could also buy a treadmill or other exerise equpiment but thats really expensive and takes up a lot of room. For something more fun you could just dance to your favorite CDs or the radio. Well I hope this helps *Ray*Ray* Oh yeah and losing weight isn't about just exersise, you should change your diet too. Good Luck!

go walking! Go as far as you can befoer you get out of breath or overheated. Keep walking everyday, and should be able to increase how long you can walk and how fast too. Good luck! I hope that helps

it's ok. just do as much of the 6tape as often as you can and you'll get more fit. that happened to me when i started taebo but now i can do that ans so much more. good luck and keep doing it because you won't get anywhere if you don't!

Weight training is good cuz when you have got more muscle your metabolism speeds up and you burn fat more quickly, so even when your not doing it your still losing weight. You also wanna do some aerobic exercises - like swimming or running cuz you get the best results if you do both.
