Exercises for Confined Quarters

RE: Exercises for Confined Quarters By 91chevy (1) Contact Try a google search for 'pedal exerciser'. I see that Target has something: http://www.target.com/gp/detail.htm ... ng=UTF8&frombrowse=1&asin=B0000C0XOC Posted on 06/27/2006 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Exercises for Confined Quarters By mobo (158) Profile Contact Something I thought about......I know you may not stay in hotel/motels, but you can still sometimes use their pools and gyms---it may be for a small fee, but you can get different workouts that way. Just ask the hotel manager if you can use the pool/gym even if you won't be staying there. Its worth a try!!! We have a campground in our area and they let those who stay there use the Holiday Inn that is in town for the gym and pool. And they get a discount at our local Y when they use that and stay at the campground.

He walked around alot----did laps around the truckstops and whenever he could!! Its amazing what walking can do. But, it doesn't happen overnight!! I would also recommed doing some stretches before doing anything. And just try eating heathier while on the road---such a challenge, but it can be done----just make healthier choices!!

What worked for me is so simple & didn't cost a bunch of money either ! A jumprope < smile.> Promise if you regularly use it you'll start to see results & feel better within two weeks to month. Good luck Posted on 06/13/2006 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Exercises for Confined Quarters By Marion from Ontario (Guest Post) I would suggest Pilates. You don't need any equipment especially when first starting out and it works everything! Get a video to get you started before going and once you've done them often enough you'll remember them! Good luck and have fun Posted on 06/13/2006 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Exercises for Confined Quarters By PeggyLee (33) Profile Contact Have you ever heard of Oxycise? It is breathing excerises that really work! You could purchase the video and get used to it at home--there are special techniques involved but once you learn them, you can do them anywhere. The video is about $40. You can get it at www.Oxycise.com. Several years ago, I bought the video (I had seen it advertised on tv) and I lost 30 lbs. with it. Of course I had to watch the food intake too. What is life like on the road? My husband has 30 years in and is thinking of retiring and doing the truck driving thing. He wanted me to get my CDL too but I don't think that's for me. Anyway, good luck!!!

Only one problem Shakespear, in Canada Avon does not sell the same products. I checked with my rep and she said we dont have them here.(it sounds perfect though) If anyone knows where I can get peddles on a stand here in Canada, please let me know. you can email me at Lmm3880 @ hotmail . com Aquarius Posted on 06/13/2006 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Exercises for Confined Quarters By Laurie (Guest Post) Here is a Super Site for exercises, recipes, message boards ect... www.SparkPeople.com Posted on 06/12/2006 | Report Spam or Abuse RE: Exercises for Confined Quarters By Cheryl from Missouri (Guest Post) Try one of the stretch bands. They roll up small so they don't take up much space. They are sold in most stores in the sporting goods section. You can stretch it between your hands to create resistance. Pull hands apart several times. This works similar to lifting weights. Standing, place one end under your foot and the other in your hand. Place elbow at side and lift hand from waist to shoulder. While sitting, bring your leg to your chest, place the band across the sole of your foot. Now extend leg using the band as resistance. Repeat several times on each leg. That's all the exercises I can think of right now. Perhaps the band will include instructions with photographs.

It is meant to be used when you are sitting down. Avon sold them a couple of months ago. I have one and it is great. It is smalll enough to fit any where and it does the trick.
