Worried about financial stability at home and worldwide?Are you looking for new budget friendly solutions? And are you trainable, coachable, and motivated? Here is a profile of an easy home workout:You need to workout at your “level”, with a “dose” three times a week. Lift weights, do some cardio, and stretch a little.When you see the *, think:where can I get this? Often family members or friends have equipment they do not use;check out your local Craigs List for low cost items, or scope out garage sales too,

SAMPLE Workout:plan about 45 minutes for this.

Cardio:March in Place with gradually higher arm and leg lifts, 3 minutes. Jumping jacks 30 reps.”Step” on a step, or stepper*, 3 minutes.(Even add disco or hip hop moves if you want)

Weights*:Use those that fatigue you in 10-12 reps

With arm weights:Lying down: Bench Press, Pec Flys, Lat Pull Downs

With arm weights,Seated:Incline Rows, Overhead Press.   Standing:Squats, Heel Raises

Cardio Again:March, Step, and and Jumping Jacks, 6 minutes, or, hop on a stationary bike* or treadmill*.

Calisthenics time; 30 Sit Ups, 30-seconds Plank, and then 20 hip bridges.

You’re done! not really, just kidding-most people skip stretching, which is the “cool-down” and relaxation

phase:I’ll post some pictures of these soon, they are my favorites

Yoga :P ress up, downward dog

Hip:Piriformis stretches.

Neck and Back;Rotations.

If you have a gym routine that is stale, try out the above, and add music for spice.If you already work out, You can blend weights and core work with routines like this: Modified Pilates “100″ with ball squeeze and lat pull…(see pictures below) and then bridges advancing to single leg bridges.
