I can't get to the gym

Today in Chicago, we are in a BLIZZARD!!! Not the kind that you would get from Dairy Queen but the kind that makes it difficult to do anything that requires going outdoors. So what do you do when you can't get to the gym? Stay at home and watch Reality TV marathons? Well, you can but you can also work out as well. Here are a few exercises that you can do right in the middle of your living room without having to rearrange your furniture.

Circuit #1
15 Body Weight Squats
15 Lunges each leg
15 Lateral Leg Lifts each leg (to the side)
30 secs Jumping Jacks

Circuit #2
15 Push ups
1 minute plank hold
15 Push ups
1 minute plank hole

rest 2 minutes, repeat 2-3 more times

Hopefully this gets rid of the guilty feeling for not making it to the gym but also give you a way of staying fit in inclement weather. Remember, please stay hydrated and before started any new fitness regimen, please consult your physician.

Talk to you on the next round.

Stay fit and fabulous.
