It’s hard for me to stay on track at home, but I’ve definitely had better luck in home than at the gym. Kudos for the ideas.

I always eat bars in very small bites too. Nibbler. Loved that you cut it up!

She kicks my butt on the free exercise tv workouts…
My second favorite thing is the wold is ExerciseTV! … I honestly dont knwo what I would do without this amazing OnDemand channel. I hate the gym, so working out in the confort of my own home is really a plus.
You should also check out exercisetv.tv! They have this amazing sweestakes going on until the end of the month. You can win a trip to LA for 2 and sessions with celebrity fitness trainer, Holly Perkins! Talk about a win-win situation

I have a few DVDs (30 Day Shred, yoga, Tae Bo even) and I get Exercise TV, but it’s just so hard to motivate myself to actually do it. And I never feel like it’s as good as a trip to the gym or a run. Same thing with yoga…I just don’t like it as much as going to a yoga class. Of course, I do like the cost better!

I have some good dvds, dumbbells, resistance bands, stability ball, and I even have a bowflex! Why I don’t use it I have no idea…

I love multitaskers….inside and outside, and no huge machinery to find room for!

I maaaay just have to buy Jillian’s tapes. I don’t do too much workouts at home for the sake of our lower neighbors, but I think the weekends could use some Jillian!

The best thing about working out at home is you can get hot and sweaty without worrying about what you look like! x

ooo the tomato/mustard dressing sounds banging.

i work out at the gym! but i wish i had my mom’s home gym ;) i do get it when she dies. but i hope that is not for 100 years.

love you, susan!

I’m forbidden to buy more by my husband but I sneak one or two in on occassion! If I’m not doing dvds then I take classes at the gym or just use the elliptical, treadmill, or rowing machine.

I’ve learned from watching my mom that a looming gym membership can kinda scare a person out of exercise more than help. Or even just joining a new gym with new classes and fun equipment can help give you a little kick in the pants. Or a yoga studio instead! You’ll find your own way of doing it Leah ;)

Good call on the fan, I sweat like a beast on the bike so next time I’ll see if the fan makes it a bit more bearable. Usually I suck at working out at home so I stick to the outdoors and the gym as much as possible. It’s pretty fun to be able to watch TV while I bike though.

I’m totally craving a salad now, too (ha, I think only food bloggers would say stuff like that).
