Workout DVD’s
There are thousands of DVD titles to choose from these days for women looking to work out at home when time is open. The P90X series, Denise Austin exercise tapes, and Jillian Michaels (The Biggest Loser trainer) are just some of the most popular titles. When weather, time or laziness prevent you from hitting the gym, you can always work out in a 8 x 8 foot space. There is no excuse then right?
Walking/Jogging
Although you may not be able to walk or run at home, unless you want to invest in an expensive treadmill, walking or jogging can be a great workout for a woman. If you live in a nice neighborhood or have a park nearby your home, a nice walk or jog can be a great alternative to being cooped up in your home. Spring and fall are great times to run or walk as they offer cooler weather that is great for exercising in.
