Answer 1

HEY, dont think oh its cold outside to not exercise i have been outside training out in the cold for weeks, so dont let it be an excuse im not being mean but if your commited like me you'll do it, but here are some things to help you :) For stuff inside, do pushups situps, decline pushups, Poker inside the 1st way like im showing in the below paragragh.

I'll still give you some games to try for fun do these every once in a while for fun.Also, ill give you two more One game is called Poker, i have i think 2 ways to do it, 1st way: you flip over a card say 7 you do 7 pushups 7 situps 7 squats, 7 x 7 = 49 secs of a Ab hold, Ab hold you get in pushup position but your on your forearms, and you hold in your stomach, what you do is what ever card you get times it by that number and hold it that long.Back to Poker,flip another say 8, you'll do 8 pushups 8 situps 8 squats, 8 x 8 = 64/ 1 min 4 secs.You get the point, do that through the whole deck if you want...2nd way : Ok Red = Field Sprints, Black = Hill Sprints, you flip one say 5 red you'll do 5 field sprints,flip another say 3 black you'll do 3 hill sprints, do that through the whole deck or half.

2nd one, Road Work, You stretch for 5 min. Then start jogging for a little bit then sprint 10-30 secs or even a min. then start jogging for recovery, then out of nowhere do 10 situps 10 pushups, get back up start jogging then sprint 10 secs- 1 min. then jogging, you get the point of repeating this for how ever long you want, 10 min, 5, 20, 30.. dont matter, Note: this one is hard, Only do this one if you go in with 110% and you leave with 110%. Sprinting burns more fat than, jogging/walking 5 miles, you could jog 5 miles and burn fat i can sprint 1 mile and burn the same amount or more.Hill Sprints, will burn the fat right off, i do hill training 3 times a week.Now here are the games but if you didnt see what you were looking for, then email me back and tell what you want and ill be happy to give it to you. :) here they are:Oh one more, you need to know this one, Its called,Terrible 20's....Take the length of a football field sprint 100 yards do 20 situps sprint back to 20 pushups sprint back do 19 situps, sprint back 19 pushups, you see it counts down every time you come back, go all the way down to 0, thats a good fat burner.Here they are.:


Fun Drills and Games for Conditioning Program

1:Frizbie Toss - You toss the frizbie and you sprint to it before it hits the ground. Fun, but Challenging.

2:Football Pass - Throw the football, then sprint to it, pick it up throw it again, sprint..etc..

3:Goal! - Soccer,Frizbie,Football - have 2 cones 5-10 yards apart Throw,Kick, or toss it through the cones if it doesnt make it sprint one lap and add one everytime.

4:Can You Get It? - Have a Water Jug Ice cold and sit it in the rocks, Take a tire with a rope tie it around you and take another tire, along with a heavy backpack, I start down at a bridge about 400 yards away, but, i have to go through clumpy wet mud then up a hill then down a hill then across a field, To see if i can get the cold water.

5:Surprize - Ok, i set out 8 cones around a field, i have a field so i can do it, Run around that field till you cant take it no more then under each cone is a surprize, but watch out, only under one cone has take a one min. water break, be careful.I write down on a piece of paper what the things are, like sprint 10 laps, jog 1 more mile, water break i write it down fold it and put it in a bag so i dont know which one is which and i mix'm up then start the game.

6:Recover - ok you set 2 cones either way top of a hill or the beg. of a field. then two cones at the other end. I set two paper towels on top of the 2 cones, and the other 2 have a piece of paper under it one is take a break, another is run 2 hill or field sprints, but you have a time limit say you have to beat 2 min. you sprint up to the first one take the paper towel off sprint to the cone with the piece of paper set it on top, if it falls that adds 2 secs to your time, if you drop it add 5 secs. If you beat the time select your surprize if you dont make it sprint a lap or hill.

7: Can you? - Do 2 min of drogs, sprint a 40 under 5.10,Run 2 laps, do 2 hill sprints, 1 100m dash, then 2 cone agility drill under 5 min.? I can do all of these but im not sure if i can do it under 5 min. Im trying it tomorrow. Look under Cone 1 if you made under 5, Cone 2 if you made 5 min 30 secs, Cone 3 if you made 6 min. Cone 4 if you made 6 min 30 secs. if you made like 6.20 round it up to 6.30. if its under 15 make it 6.00.

Answer 2

Dance. Aerobics (get tapes). Belly dancing (doesn't take up much room). or Pilates (ask a doctor first at your age).

Yoga is excellent at any age - even pre-teens have lots of stress to let go of.

Good luck.

Answer 3

Try getting a Pilates DVD and start there. They don't require alot of physical exertion but they help sculpt your abs, butt and thighs...Low impact is best for people who can't tolerate cardio...

Answer 4

How about a skipping rope. Skip at least 100 a day & you will get tone & weight loss.

Answer 5

jumping jacks,push ups, streches
