How To Get Fit At Home?

Question

What are some exercises I can do at home with no equipment in order to shed some excess pounds and get fit.

Answer 1

if you have stairs in your place run up and down them for about 20 mintues

Answer 2

I lost 105 pounds in 6 months. Here is how I did it.
1. Every morning get up and walk for 45 minutes. You can start with less time, but you want to get up to 45 minutes, and it must be fast walk. You want your heart rate to go up. It must be in the morning, it kick starts your metabolism.
2. I cut out Red Meat, and fatty foods. Boneless skinnless chicken breast, baked, or grilled, rice and vegetables (steamed).
3. Eat half. Just eat half of what you normally eat. Put 1/2 on your plate, and put the rest away. Cook less. When you go to fast food, get salads only. Or grilled chicken. No fries, only diet soda. Or water.

It will work, once you get into a routine, you will get hooked on the results, and you will keep the routine. It has been over a year for me.

Also start counting your calories. Write them down. You would be amazed as to how much more aware you are of your caloric intake, if you actually write it down. We recently discovered a site that offers a great program that counts calories, as well as keeps track of everything. It allows multiple users, so everyone in the family can keep track. They offer a free 7 day trial, and so far I am very impressed with the product. Try the 7 days and see. It allows you to add the exercise that you do during the day, which increases the amount of calories you can take in. Very Cool!!

Stay motivated, and get up and walk every day. I seriously lost all my weight starting off my day on my walk.

Good LUCK!

Answer 3

Floor exercises such as leg kicks (on all 4's, stretch one leg out behind you at a time), push ups, squats (with or without books for weights), work your triceps by pushing your weight up from a chair, even running in place will help you lose weight, get in shape, tone muscle - whatever you're looking to accomplish.

I really like to use a resist-a-ball for most of the above exercises - it's not expensive equipment and makes working out more versatile and fun.

Answer 4

It is actually pretty easy & cheap to get a good workout from home.
Cardio, to burn fat, increase stamina, and cardiovascular function can be acheived by turning on some tunes and dancing or purchase a skipping rope.
Check out this site for different exercises you can do for toning :http://www.hintsandthings.co.uk/bathroom/home%20exercise.htm.

And remember, weight-loss is acheived by burning more calories than consumed and be sure to get at least 1200 calories a day. Anything less will actually hinder weight loss.

Then i do not know if you have Comcast, if you do they have the fit TV on demand, and they have a wide verity of programs you can do to get healty, and fit.
