Wouldn't it be wonderful to be able to afford all of that fancy equipment used in the gyms? Well,nice as it sounds,you need to find exercises that are effective and don't require any equipment at all.To make these exercises even more fun,you can blast music while you're doing them.Sometimes you can even make it while watching TV.

Walking

If the weather is nice,it's wonderful to get outside and enjoy the scenery around you while you exercise.However,if the weather doesn't agree with you,you can easily get an effective walking workout at home.If you have a flight of stairs,go up and down them a few times.This will help to tone up your legs,while you are getting some low impact aerobic exercise as well.If you don't have any stairs available,just walk around the house a few times—it may not be very exciting,but it will do the job!

Push-ups

These are probably not the most favorite exercise of many people,but while they can be hard to do,you can find easier ways to do them.You don't need to pretend you're “Rocky”,and do them with one hand;just do what works for you.Do them on your knees.Instead,keep your legs straight,or do them standing up against a wall.You will be building up arm strength and working out muscles in your chest area.

Leglifts

These are great for building up strength and muscles in your legs.If you find it hard to do the exercises with your legs straight,try bending them slightly.

Crunches（仰臥起坐）

The best exercise for building up and strengthening abdominal muscles!When you're just getting started,don't worry about getting your head all the way up.So long as you're go ing up until you feel your muscles stretching,you will see some benefit.

Jogging in place

Jogging is a great exercise for your heart.You can jog in place at home while watching TV or listening to music.The only equipment you will require is a good pair of shoes,to eliminate any stress to your legs.

Squats（蹲坐）

These are wonderful exercises for your legs and buttocks.You can even just try these by sitting and standing up again and again from a regular chair,if you're finding them to be too difficult.As long as you're able to do a few repetitions,you will be providing some benefit for your body.

Light weight lifting

No,you don't need to go out and buy expensive weights for this!Just use whatever you can find in your house.Start out with something lighter,such as a can of peas,and work yourself up to heavier items.You can use milk jugs,laundry detergent bottles or even water jugs.

Dancing

Dancing is a wonderful exercise,which is great for your heart.Not only that,but it can lift your spirits as well,and give your overall feeling a boost.

With these exercises,you don't need to go out or join a gym,paying a large amount in membership fees each month.You don't even need the expensive equipment in order to give your body an effective workout.Use what you have in your house,and work out in the comfort of your home.You will be more likely to keep up with the exercises when you're comfortable.So just get up and start exercising!
