Need exercise ideas!
 
Girls,
I've been doing really well sticking to my exercise plan while here at school. But over Christmas break, I really need some cardio ideas. It will be too cold to run many times (or wet or snowy) and we don't have a treadmill or an elliptical machine like I have here at my school's gym. Joining a gym just isn't financially possible and I don't have the time to go to a gym anyway just to work out for 30-some minutes and then turn around and go home.
I have a jump rope, and I definitely will continue my free weights and calisthenics once a week and my pilates once a week, but other than that I'm stuck on what to do for exercise. How many of you have exercise DVDs? Which ones do you like and why?
Thanks!

Check out Jillian Michaels' 30-Day Shred. It's a 25 minute workout that will kick your BUTT. It's about $9 on amazon and probably around $11 at Target or Walmart. You need hand weights (or soup cans, bottles of water, etc) and an exercise mat if you are on a hard surface (I've done it on the carpet in a hotel room before).

She is a good motivator, the exercises are designed to get results, and everyone has 25 minutes.

I love this dvd and I find that when I'm working so hard that I want to die, I know that there isn't that much left and that I can finish it. Try it! If you don't like it, you can sell it back on amazon/ebay, etc
