Weight Training Equipment

what is better? an exercise bike, treadmill or an ellpitical trainer? (i think is what its called?) anyway – i dont have a lot of space. and im just looking for something i can put infront of the tv.
i need to burn fat and tone up my muscles. whats the best?

I had the same question a few years ago prior to beginning my weight loss program. After much research I purchased a treadmill. It turned out to be the best decision of my life.

I run about 1,000 miles per year on it and have lost 35 pounds.
Good luck.

I really want to get ready for track and field and I need good workout routines for at home with no equipment and I don’t have time for the gym. Please help.

Well, for track and field…run?

My nightly workout is a run, variations of sit ups, pull ups, some dumbell stuff, and pushups

i need really good tips on how i can tone my body.
oh yeah to all of you mean people i’m 5′9 156lbs

Functional fitness is probably the best way to get your body in shape. It doesn’t use equipment so you can do it anywhere and it carries over to real life better than any other type of exercising.

STRENGTH EXERCISES
Chest and triceps – pushups
Abs – crunches and vacuum

Obliques – side crunches
Quads and Glutes – squats and lunges
Lower back and hamstrings – good mornings
Hip flexors and calves – skipping
Shoulders – downward dog presses
Back and biceps – these are tough without equipment but you can use door side frames to do body weight rows

ENDURANCE EXERCISES
Martial arts
Dancing
Hill/stair running

STRETCHING
Yoga!

There no gyms where I am, and I want to gain more muscle i gained 4 pounds in muscle already

Buy dumbells at Wal-Mart.

Id have to say the best for me was the Altus Athletic ADG Home Door Gym and 15-Minute Workouts for Dummies DVD The worst and im guilty of buying one is the double wheel ab roller But the worst i have seen is this thing called Shake weight

There are a number of great exercise programs that you can use to get fit in you home.They are guaranteed to get results.There are Exercise Dvd’s, Medicine Balls, Weighted Gloves, Mats, Heart Rate Monitors, Fat Testers and ore. There are also great Nutrition Products For Diets, Weight Management, Wellness, and more.

I need a workout plan with the equipment I have. Ideally I would like to workout my arms, shoulders, chest and abs. I have two dumbbells where I can put plates on to whatever weight I want, a bench press, and a curling bar. I also have a stand alone bench I use when I am doing isolated curls.

Dumbbell chest press (flat in and incline if your bench will adjust for incline), dumbbell shoulder press, rows, squats, lunges, calf press, deadlifts, bicep curls, shrugs… Crunches holding weight… Buy a pull-up bar and do some pull-ups as well (get biceps and upper-back done with that).

Notice that I included some lower-body stuff. Don’t just work out the upper body. You can gain some easy weight by doing lower-body work too. Plus, as you get bigger, it will help support the increased weight you will be lifting with your upper body. If your lower body is weak, you could easily injure yourself.

I currently do pushups, dips, sit-ups . . . are there any ways that you have found to build some muscle without leaving the house or paying a health club membership bill?

http://www.bodybuildingforyou.com/articles-submit/jesse-cannone/fat-burning-workout-13minutes.htm, that is a pretty hard work out

But you should do a 5 set pushup til failure workout, dips until failure, work your abs til failure, work out your legs, but most importantly increase your protein intake and calorie intake, without proper nutrition you’re not going to get bigger

im really short like 4′9 and i weight about 130! i know its alot for my height and i really wanna loose it but its hard! any tips??

run? no you’re probably out of shape. first start stretching every night before you go to bed, and do 20 crunches. do that for about 2 weeks as well as eating healthier and less, and then add in a 45 minute walk. after 2 weeks of that, instead of walking, try jogging. just build up your energy levels and it becomes much easier.
