bjbj Hey guys, Isabel here, and everybody always asks me what I do for my workouts.
Well, now that I have two kids it s really hard to get to the gym so I actually have
a bunch of stuff at home that I m going to show you today and you re going to see that
it is nothing expensive, nothing complicated and actually I have purchased all of these
items used and most of them I found on Craigslist. So you do not need to spend a lot of money
on new gym equipment in order to have a great workout right in your house. So, we are in
my garage, I have everything set up in my garage. I m actually sitting on my exercise
ball and if you get nothing else this is a wonderful investment. Now, I have one that
I spent a little bit more money on only because it s really important because they have a
lot of exercise balls at like let s say the grocery store even and they re really flimsy,
so you want to make sure that it s sturdy and this one you can see is pretty hard. We
have two: one for me, one for my husband, his is a different size, I have the smallest
one because I m pretty short. So, you re going to see that I just sort of have like a mishmash
of different things because like I said, I found a lot of these on Craigslist which you
can buy used items, so I don t really care if it doesn t match or what it looks like.
I ve got exercise bands, love exercise bands, I ve got a pair of eights, here are some threes,
here are some fives and, again, they don t match, but it doesn t matter, they work just
as well. I bought these used and they re really good because you can actually add, you can
adjust the weight, so this is five, it comes with a two and a half pound plate, so you
can adjust the weight there and my husband and I really like to use those. I also have
three kettle bells, I have a 10 pound, a 20 pound and a 50 pound. Again, I don t have
a set because I purchased them used, but I use the 10 and the 20 and my husband uses
the 50 and that s perfectly fine for us. The other thing I have is actually I have this
band that has an attachment to the door and that s really awesome because I can do all
kinds of rows and things with it or I can do like chest presses, you know, go this way
and do some chest presses, I mean, really you can get so creative with bands and they
re great for travel. The other thing I have is, I have this rebounder and rebounding was
really big a while ago, let me get this ball out of the way. And I don t know, I think
it s a lot of fun, I think I found it for like 20 dollars. So what happens with gym
equipment is that a lot of people think they re going to use it and they spend all kinds
of money on it and then like a couple months later they just end up selling it because
they don t use it, so I get to benefit from that. One of the best things I have found
or that I found used was this bosu ball because these things are kind of pricy and look at
the thing, it s like brand spanking new, I ve had it, I bought it last year and someone
purchased it, they thought they were going to use it and, you know, be fancy about their
exercise and I guess they just never used it. You can use it two ways, you can use it
for different balancing kind of exercises, like you can do some planks on here, you can
do pushups over it. I mean, it s just, I love this thing, you can stand on it, do squats.
So that s what I have here. Probably the only thing that we actually did spend a decent
amount of money on are these floors, and we got them at a gym equipment place, and we
did spring for the floors. But my husband and I, we work out a lot, we really can t
make it to the gym, not with two kids, so we did get the flooring and it s really, I
really like it. Now, the other thing I want to make sure to show you is that even if you
have small children you can still exercise because you can entertain them with some toys
here, I m just kidding, I just wanted to show you that because there are plenty of times
where I bring my son down here. So, that s really it. Ooh, I can t forget to show you
my six dollar mirrors, so I have a mirror here on this end and I have another mirror
back there and I spent all of six dollars on each of them at the hardware store. So,
as you ve seen, you don t need anything fancy, there s always a way to fit in exercise, you
don t have to get, you don t have to spend a lot of money on equipment and you can make
it work at home. hjB" :pP[ [Content_Types].xml Iw}, $yi} _rels/.rels theme/theme/themeManager.xml
