I just found an awesome resource for free workout videos from ExerciseTV and thought I'd share. For those of you who have cable, you are probably already familiar with the channel, so this may not be news to you, but for those like me who don't have cable (or even a TV in my case) this can be a great addition to your fitness routine! I have been working out regularly for years, and have an extensive workout DVD collection, but thrive on variety so that I don't get bored easily and keep my body guessing as to what comes next, and I still enjoyed finding this site. Some of the videos are clips of DVDs you can buy, and others show the full workout. I was even surprised to see that my beloved 30 Day Shred by Jillian Michaels was on there ! So you can check them out if you plan on buying them, or just do the workout from the computer. This is what I did, I did a 20 minute Kickbox workout this morning, and I really enjoyed it, and got a good cardio workout. This is so great for me because I truly enjoy working out from home, and I love workout videos. I've also been trying to revamp some of my DVDs to include titles that I wouldn't mind my son seeing me workout to (so that the videos do not become a stumbling block to him as he's getting older). So this way I was able to look for a video that had a fully dressed woman (some even have just a man, which is even better) and then do the workout. I will really enjoy that feature, as I've been having a hard time finding videos that don't have half naked women on them. (Although the site has plenty of those too) Those kinds are not so bad if I'm working out by myself (enclosed area), but I like to encourage my son to be healthy and fit by working out in accessible areas when possible....
Well enough babbling and on to the link! The categories are on the left side, so you could click on the type of workout you want, and then click on "free full length" under video type if you want to avoid the trailers (and skip all the crap that has the word "buy", just click "watch"). exercisetv.tv/workout-videos/
Enjoy!
Do you know of any other such resources? Let me know!
I'm a wannabe in every sense of the word. I wanna be good enough to make it to heaven, but Jesus died because I will never be. I wanna be a mom of ten living on a farm in the middle of nowhere, training my girls to honor God & their husbands, by being content, happy homemakers...yet God has seen fit to bless us with the opportunity to help rear for Him two boys (22 and 12), in the middle of suburbia ;) I wanna be a helpmate to my husband in every way possible, yet more often than not, I'm in his way, lol. I wanna be the perfect parent, that raises perfect children, yet I am constantly humbled by the fact that only He is perfect, and I must allow him to lead. I wanna be the ultimate caretaker of my temple, and the pinnacle of health to all around me, yet no amount of healthy eating/exercise keeps me from dropping to my knees often, in need of healing from the Great Physician. I could go on and on about the the things that I am trying to be, but I invite you instead to come and join me as I travel on my path toward virtue... ~Proverbs 31:10-31~
