Anyone have any easy workouts that theyve found to really work?

[Anonymous]

I weigh about 150 now (I recently had a baby) and I wanna lose about 20 pounds, which would make me a little over the weight I was pre-baby. I wanna lose it before college starts (August 20). Its hard to go running with my daughter because its so hot out and she gets overly fussy.

So does anyone have any around the house workouts?

please and thanksss =))

treadmill? I hate running outside. I run on my treadmill in the house.

step climber? Those things will seriously make you burn.

If you're looking to stay around the house, you will probably need to buy a piece of equipment. Otherwise, you need to go out for a run or join a gym.

i wish I had a treadmill in my house, but like I said its pretty impossible for me to run out with the weather being so hot, and I don't have time to join a gym

can anyone watch the baby early in the morning? Get a run in before it gets too hot. Be back before she wakes up.

no =/ I'm more than likely just have to overload on crunches/pushups/situps and what not, while she's napping or something.. and pray it works lol

those are good, but you need cardio. You have to get your heart and lungs working at full speed for 20-30 minutes a day. crunches and pushups are resistance exercises, not cardio.

well I looked, and I found some cardio workouts I can do at home without exercise equipment I'm gonna try.. or I may order the insanity workout

[beinghelpful]

Insanity or P90x are, well, insane. They will definitely work your heart and lungs, but be aware of what you are getting yourself into.

oh I know, I'm serious about losing the weight, cus well I'm not happy with the way I look anymore or how my clothes fit me. so instead of bitching about it and then doing nothing I'm gonna do whatever it takes (as long as I can do it at home lol)

Good luck. In 90 days, you need to post naked pictures for all of us. Just a thought. :)

[Asker]

[beinghelpful]

Well, post SOMEBODY'S naked pictures! We won't know the difference.

hahah very true

Easy or efficient? You would have to pick one or the other. They're WORKouts, not RELAXouts ;)

[Asker]

i mean easy in the way I don't need certain things, and can do in my living room or something.

Cardio would be your best bet. If you have a treadmill or bike, then hop on and run/bike like a mad woman. If you don't then you might just have to find a babysitter for a half hour or so to go out running.

Or you could always get a gym membership. It's rare nowadays for a gym to NOT have a baby play room and someone in there to watch all the kids.

yeah I've been loooking for agym with that but sadly none around me have one, ill prob have to resort in getting a babysitter
