When it's too hot to exercise and you don't have a gym membership...?


Question:
any ideas on what one could do without dying of heat stroke?

Answers:
Our Parks Department has rec centers with gyms that are REALLY cheap, like $10 a month. They're not as fancy as the big expensive gyms, but they're clean and have aerobic machines and weights.
Light housework - (i.e. dusting or washing up)



These activities also burn little total calories - around 2-3*calories per minute. Higher percentages of fat will be utilised around 70%* of calories burned.

4. Aerobic exercise or light Jogging



Aerobic classes are very popular for many trying to lose weight. They can be very effective in burning a large amount of total energy in a single session. However if a person is overweight and/or unfit the class may become too intense for proper fat burning, especially if the individual is highly motivated to keep up with other, fitter members of the class. For this individual breathing would become heavy and this will always result in carbohydrates becoming the predominant fuel, pushing the percentage of fat burning down as low as 30%



It may be wise to start off any new exercise program with gentle walking activities. After a few weeks try walking briskly until a little fitness is developed then aerobic exercise may be more effective.
get some work out videos...or we have a channel called fittv that has some work out shows, our local library also has some videos that we can check out. i live in a hot city too and still try to go on walks outside but always bring a bottle of water to keep me going...and i just wear a tanktop so i feel like im working on my tan too. :)
Work out to a video/dvd in your air conditioned home.

Crank up the AC and do some stair cardio or house work. I like cleaning and dancing around so xrank up some tunes while doing this! Good luck!
