Read on to find a great workout for your home. Keep in mind that any cardio equipment you might have can come in extremely helpful for a good home workout. At www.fitnesscamps.net, we are dedicated to finding you the best possible fitness camp experience that best suits you. However, we also know that it isn't very wise to suppose that everybody is going to spend three months out of the year at weight loss camps in order to keep their weight down. And as is the case the majority of the time, it is difficult to find time for the gym when you spend half an hour getting ready to go and driving to and from there. So what do we recommend? We recommend that you take a close look at the tips and hints we provide you with in this section so that you may either follow the routine we provide or get a bearing on what is best for your needs and adapt the program to your circumstances.
Initial Recommendations and points in common that a good workout should have:
1. Incorporate cardio and strength 2. Workout should last at least 40 minutes 3. FOR CARDIO- Look into getting some cardio equipment, elliptical machine($$), treadmill ($$), or a jump rope (sometimes a sidewalk for jogging is all you need) 4. FOR STRENGTH- Get some elastic bands, a swiss ball and some dumb bells
If you feel that you can't do the the amount of repetitions mentioned in this workout, don't worry about it. You can always work up to the number of repetitions. Try doing the activity for the specified amount of time instead of the number of repetitions. Also, don't feel to mix it up a bit with the exercises. The important thing is to get your heart rate up and keep it up for 40 minutes. Also, you will notice the strength side of the routine. A great way to burn fat is by lifting low weight at high repetitions.
A good in-home workout routine for three times a week:
Round 1 -5 minutes jogging outside.....................................(5 minutes) -30 ab crunches...................................................(1 minute) -1 minute of jump rope (This is surprisingly hard!).......(1 minute) -20 reps of alternating bicep curls............................(1 minute)
Remember, feel free to mix up the workout a bit. If you have an elliptical efx type machine, feel free to use that instead of jogging. If you have a stationary bike, feel free to use that instead as well. Just remember that short 5 minute spurts of running, biking, using elliptical, or other continuous cardio exercise is great for getting and keeping your heart rate up. Good Luck and keep that weight off!
If you're thinking about doing something while you're sitting on your couch, get off it immediately. Pick up the remote control and turn on your television set to Fit TV. It is a relatively new fitness channel that is extremely new to me as I have just recently discovered it, and it is absolutely amazing. Many times when you go to a fitness camp or weight loss camp, you encounter nutrition courses that help you out in your daily life. Well this channel has a cooking class that teaches you how to cook really tastey treats for double the fiber, double the protein and only have the calories! But since this part of the website is focused more on in-home workouts, I'll stick to the workout portion of the channel.
When you tune into Fit TV you have a multitude of very experienced, very successful people in the fitness industry leading fitness classes that stream right into your living room. Throughout the entire day aerobics type classes are being held on the network. There are some healthy cooking classes and the sort, but most of the ime there are workouts. You can do cardiovascular workouts, weight workouts, circuit workouts and other types of workouts that leave you with a more tone and muscular physique. So if you're interested in doing a nice home workout, try doing a workout from Fit TV. It's not available to everybody as it is a cable television program, but if you have it, definitely use it. Also, if this is not included in your cable or television package, a great workout to do is one that you can buy online or at a sports store in dvd form. If you get a dvd workout video then you can pause it and advance through exercises you don't really like to do. That's not to say, don't do them because they're hard, don't do them if they are bothersome to you in some form. It's really beneficial to most of us to have the ability to do something other than just fitness camps and weight loss camps. At home you have to do your part to stay fit after attending a fitness camp.
