Say No to Winter Weight Gain

Say No to Winter Weight Gain

The holiday season plays only a small role in the ups and downs of fitness. In fact, the majority of winter weight gain is due to exercising less. While joining a gym (or setting up a home gym) isn't a bad idea, doing so is not for everyone. The following is a list of some great exercises that can be done with little or no equipment, to create a comprehensive full-body workout:

Push-ups are perfect for toning the chest, triceps and shoulders. If you're not ready for the standard military push-up, try doing them from your knees, making sure to keep your ankles crossed.

Sit-ups. Start by lying on your back with your knees bent and feet placed flat on the floor. Wedge your toes underneath a couch or bed frame to keep your feet planted. With your hands behind your head (don't pull yourself up by the neck), begin your sit-up. Instead of going all the way up to your knees, stop halfway and pause before returning to the ground. Doing so alleviates tension in the lower back, while isolating the middle and upper abdominals.

Leg lifts strengthen and tone the lower abdominals. Lie flat on your back with your feet together and the palms of your hands on the ground next to you. Keeping your legs straight, raise them until they are perpendicular to the ground and your toes point straight in the air.

Lunges work your entire chain of leg muscles. Stand with your feet spread shoulder width apart. With your hands on your hips, step forward with your right leg and take your left knee to the ground. Return to the initial standing position and step forward with your left foot, taking your right knee to the ground.

Jumping rope is inexpensive and excellent for building cardiovascular fitness and coordination. And as long as the ceilings in your home aren't too low, you can jump rope in many different rooms.

DVD and online streaming workouts are another inexpensive way to keep variety in your routine�Yoga, Pilates, aerobics, martial arts and dance are just some of the available options.

Dumbbells can be stored out of sight and provide hundreds of options in terms of individual exercises without requiring a full home gym. Some dumbbells can be adjusted to add weight as you gain fitness.

Exercise balls allow abdominal and core strengthening, and all sorts of leg toning exercises. These balls have a myriad of applications�many even come with workout instructions.

Chin-up bars can be attached to the inside of a doorway and taken down in a matter of seconds. These provide an incredible exercise for strengthening and toning the entire upper body.

Use your imagination because these are just a few of the indoor workouts you can do in the comfort of your own home, but don't forget to consult your physician before embarking on any diet or exercise routine.
