hey people, i ran nearly everyday for about 30 min, and i was wondering what kinds of exercises can i incorporate after the training, or later that night i can do to help me with my weightloss aim. i got no access to a gym.
I've heard interval workouts are great for conditioning. Can you go to a local track and run? My sister = cross country runner and that's how they train, and i read that it is actually suggested for people who are losing weight to mix up their exercises once in a while. For example, instead of running for 30 straight minutes you could go to a track and run 4 400's (400=one lap) with 30 second to one minute breaks inbetween them. Or you could run like 21/2 laps, one minute break, 2 laps, one minute break, 1 1/2 laps, one minute break and so on and so forth.
Also, like suggested above me weight lifting is supposed to be great for your metabolism. GOOD LUCK! Keep us posted~
There are a wide array of workout dvd's to choose from, I hear good things about tae bo and winsor pilates. I have some of the 10 minute solution DVDs and they are really effective.
Doing balance ball training is really effective and fun! PLUS balance balls are cheap ><
I also agree with getting some dumbbells. Gyms are just more convenient but you can do without them, really.
i think exercise is only a good way ti loss your weight. at first you've to join gym if you want to loss your weight. don't try to eat very little because it may be very harmful for you.
