Need a workout? Sometimes gyms aren't the best places to go for a work out, especially when time is limited and money is tight. However, there are tons of ways to keep fit in the comfort of your own home!

Difficulty:

Easy

Instructions

1. Take some time every day and do a few easy exercises, such as crunches or push ups. These take little effort and can reward you in the long run. Add a couple more each day and soon you'll be feeling less of a burn and more of a reward.

2. Climb stairs. Climbing stairs is a great way to get the heart pumping. Up the speed or climb at a steady pace. You set your own limits!

3. Follow work out videos. Work out videos allow you to move at your own pace and try out new activities that you can easy learn on TV.

4. Work out your arm muscles by lifting a heavy trash bag or laundry basket over and over again. Be careful not to strain your back!

5. Keep active even in the comfort of your own home. Don't become a couch potato once you get home. Keep your body active and moving!

6. Take walks around the neighborhood or bike rides. Though they may not be in your home, they still give you the benefits of exercise in your own comfort zone.
