do you live in a two foot by two foot room?! of course there's ways of exersizing indoors!!! crunches crunches crunches, situps, jogging in place, jump rope, tapes, jumping jacks, leg lifts, running up and down the stairs, dancing crazy to music, making up your own cardio workout, kicks, punches, cleaning....god the lists goes on for ages. be creative! find something you like doing!

I have had more results with The FIRM. It's fun and the instructors on it really encourage you and it helps you to stay dedicated. I did tae-bo, but it doesn't really work that well for me.

you're burning calories just being alive every second. sledding probably burns more too because of the climb up hill and the screamoing and such...

i know one! ok- lay on your back with your palms of your hands on the ground and under your butt(for more support) your legs should be straight up and together. with controlled movements move your legs down- almost touching the ground and then raise them back up slowly and repeat as many times as you want or can. make sure your legs stay together and straight. good luck!

As it's coming up 2 Christmas, I am finding it hard to diet with out my parents noticing, because there is so much nice food around, that I would normally eat. Also the weather is so bad that I can't do any excersize outside. I don't have any fitness tapes because they are 2 expensive. I don't knwo what to do there are so many partys as well. What shall I do, I don't want to put on weigt. Oh yeh my parents don't think I am overweight, they just think that I am big boned, but I can tell that I have put on weight recently. Please help me, any help is welcome. Merry Xmas Lola x

Do things that you enjoy. Maybe bike riding, swimming, running, roller bladeing? If you stick to fun things then you will enjoy becoming more healthy :)

I'd really like to lose 20-35 pounds but I need to know some good diet plans. I also need to find some good exercises.
Reply From anne, Age 16 - 12/08/03 - IP#: 216.66.108.xxx show message replied to go to original board
but with situps you'll build muscle and muscle burns a lot more fat during the day even when you're not exersizing. but you do need a cardio workout 3 times a week for about 30 minutes at least to burn some calories off. you need to burn 1000 more calories than you consume a day if you want to lose 2 pounds a week. www.caloriesperhour.com helps me keep track of that. good luck!eat low calorie veggies a lot too!

Thank you guys for all your support, a good goal for this week that you might wanna try... only eat 100 grams of carbs a day.. check out lables.. believe me carbs are in many things I never even would have thought.. Oh and I found the greatest drink thats low on cal/fat/carbs and is great for winter weather! Swiss Miss (i cant remember if this is the correct spelling) makes Diet hot chocolate.. 25 calories, 0 fat, and only 4 grams of carb, add hot water or skim milk and you have a healthy yummy treat for those of you with a sweet tooth.. hehe well bubeyes everyone.

I've been doing 100 crunches a night (more if I feel like it) for the past 3 weeks, I only missed one night, but it was just because I did weight lifting and I felt like hula-hooping (it can help you just a bit if you want to lost weight,but you have to do it ALOT, I find it to be more fun that alot of other exercises thought.) Anyways, with the crunches I've been doing, they can help you get more toned, my stomach of course has "blubber" on it, lol, but I can see a bit of a difference in how my stomach muscles look, just a little bit though, you have to do them for a really really long time to get really good results, if you have to lose weight, then you will notice the difference more once you lose a bit of the weight but I'd say they're working pretty good for me!

You can play DDR on any Play Station, a computer, or an x-box. not only a ps2. I usually play at the arcades, but i have it on the psx and the computer. if you want a free version download Step Mania, its the same thing but its free. Good pads are about $50 each (mine are over 100 each but they are metal). Some games actually have a "workout mode" which keeps track of calories burned and is impossible to fail. IM me at sheikiansheik if you want to talk.
BTW if anyone can do Legend of Max on Heavy then you rule

Dance Dance Revolution is a game for playstation 2. You buy a dance pad that has a forward, back, left, and right arrow on it. You stand in the middle and when you play the game, it tells you what arrow to step on and it goes with the music. It can get pretty intense. A dance pad costs about 30 bucks at walmart, and the game itself is the same price as any regualr ps2 game.

I went to The Firm's website a while ago after seeing how many of you use it and have had results with it. Well, it looks alot like a woman/girl kind of video, and I'm, well, not one of those 2. So, anyone know any other things like The Firm that guys could use, or is The Firm alright?
