By Emmanuel Palmer


Do you agree that everyone is entitles to a full life? Of course! One way of achieving this is committing to an active and healthy way of life. If you don't have the means to enroll in a fully equipped gym, it doesn't mean you cannot have any part in this. Be creative. We have listed some excellent tips on the best ways to work out at home.

Working out at home will not cost you much and will be much more convenient for you. As such, it might be also a challenge to stay motivated and maintain a workout schedule. Ask yourself, what will inspire you to stay fit? Is it having a great physique? Maybe it's to increase your stamina and over-all strength. Whatever is your motivation, it will be a good idea to have a picture or a phrase that will drive you framed or tacked on to your refrigerator or medicine cabinet to remind you constantly.

Here's the foolproof way to make your home training more effective - constantly monitor your progress by logging on to detailed workout sheets. These sheets can be downloaded from the Internet for free or you can create your own without trouble at all. The first thing you need to do is to make a list of all important personal statistics like your age, your initial weigh in, body measurements, etc. Check up on the change of these statistics regularly.

Separate the sheet into several columns. On the first line list down the exercise you've done and put in the following columns the reps, sets, weight load and the duration of time you executed the entire drill. Place a comment file beside the last file and write down things that happened to you that day that may have affected your training. For example, put in your mood that day, any special incidents that happened prior to working out, meals consumed recently, etc. Workout sheets have many times isolated specific problems by recognizing glitches in your lifestyle.

Cardiovascular activities are usually free and mobile - meaning it can be done almost anywhere, anytime. Take your dog for a jog around the block a few times each week. Play Frisbee in the park with some friends; Perform step exercises with your stairs at home; do some jump rope; or just slip on a bouncy track and start dancing!

It's funny but they say the best ever exercises are the crunches and squats - it's funny because these drills are absolutely free. No fancy equipment needed. However, do focus in keeping the right position and breathing. Close your bedroom door and start doing crunches on the floor. You can also sit on the edge of your bed and do 3 sets of leg raises in 20 reps or until failure.

If you are able to, invest in a few dumbbells of different weight loads. If you have none available, make use of water bottles, detergent containers or whatever you can think of that will offer you some resistance when carried. Push-ups and knee-ups will help tone up your arms anywhere. Make sure you always have time to stretch well before, during and after training to release blood flow and increase your body temperature prior to working out.

There you go - the easiest formula to stay fit is by finding ways to workout at home effectively. Stay motivated and look good every time you step out of the house!
