After I had my first child, I started doing circuit training in my living room. It s just a series short-burst (30-60 seconds) exercises with no rest in-between (to keep up your heart rate) Circuit training is the absolute best way to lose weight because it combines cardio with weight training and works out your entire body. If you go the full-body route, make sure you rest every other day. If you want a daily workout, just exercise your upper body on Monday, lower on Tuesday, abs on Wednesday, etc. (rotate) I d start out with 10-12 exercises, 30 seconds each in one circuit. If you feel you can repeat the circuit, repeat. Work your way to adding more exercises, for longer periods of time, and possibly repeating an entire circuit. The variety helps with boredom and for people who can stand to be on a treadmill for 30 minutes straight. Some of the exercises I used were:lungespush upsjump squatsbicep curlstricep extensionscrunchesreverse crunchesbicycle crunchesmountain climbersside and front arm deadliftsstair stepperstair suicides (run up the 5th step, come down; up the 6th, come down; up to the 7th, come down, etc.)cycling (exercise bike)rowing (rowing machine)running (treadmill)You ll probably need some dumbbells in 5lbs, 7lbs, 10lbs. Use the stairs in your house (if you have them) for stair stepping/climbing for your cardio if you don t have any machines. Use your couch for proper crunch technique (legs bent over the seat, back on the floor.)You can find a lot of these exercises (and more) here:http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/exercise��You ll find lots of different exercises and workout plans. Some use milk jugs filled with sand/water for weights. Hope all this helps.
