What is the best workout I could do at home to start getting fit in 2 weeks?
I’m going off to college and want to cut back on what I’m eating so I could feel more healthy before Freshman 15 creeps up on me. I don’t own a gym membership, which at this point would be pointless. I own a treadmill, workout bench, basketball court in the backyard, jump rope, and free weights. Any suggestions? Specifically cardio because I loathe the treadmill. I also have a bike. Help please.

— toning up —-
It is possible. i think.
if you REALLY try at it. just dont let any extra pounds get in the way..
just try light weights maybe..
— losing weight —
in the morning if you can wake up pretty early, thats when you have the most energy! drink a bottle of water plug in your ipod or whatever and listen to music as you run! — thats my first step.
Then you go home, eat a really healthy breakfast like fruit salad or something thats nutritonal.
After that you pretty much clean the house or whatever maybe take a walk while its cool, walk your pet dog, if you have one, i like to spend the morning doing that while its not so hot outside!
After that you wait a few hours being active as can be, then you relax a little and do some sit ups and lift weights to your own schedule… and your own statistics like weight height goals.. or whatever.. thats what i usually do! And then i like to stretch at the beginning of the day.. haha
MORE TIPS:
chew gum – sugar free. It makes you not snack because if you chew it, you dont want to snack because then you will have to spit out your gum! works for me..
thats my trick tip – now read the losing weight 411
EXTRA: breathing for an hour burns 60 calories, so thats a little lift off your chest haha
and sleeping is the same rate 🙂
excersise at least 60 minutes a day if you can 🙂

hey, you know what? The most unexpensive weight loss thing to do, is to try to burn more calories than you eat, dont eat unhealthy like a 500 calorie diet! All that will do is make you sick, you NEED to be healthy to lose weight properly. Im trying to lose weight too! So basically here are some tips to speed up your metabolism: Drink 1-3 glasses of green tea a day
Try and eat Chilli peppers somehow, ((chilli DUH )) they help.
8 classes of water a day
the more active you are, the faster your metabolism will grow to be.
did you know that breathing for an hour burns 60 calories all on its own? And SLEEP is very important, try to go to sleep on time and get your ages average amount of sleep,. ask your doctor what a healthy weight for you is, and then after you have reached that goal do sit ups and crutches – among many other core excersises, Run to slim out, and make sure you burn more calories than you eat – had to repeat that!
Fruits and veggies are REALLY low in calories and FULL of nutrition. If you like Tacos? Ditch the hard shell, maybe try a taco salad.. without the shell of course! Lettuce with meat is good, but PLEASE try mixing it with turkey and beef so that it isnt all fat. Chicken salad is good, you want the protein but you dont want fried anything really, once in a while if fine but remember – YOU HAVE TO BURN OFF THOSE EXTRA CALORIES. Excersises excersise excersise. Dont over do it – dont starve yourself, be moderate and stay active. GOOGLE: 100 ways to burn 100 calories, their are some pretty cool things you can do!
Stay away from starchy and high carb foods – mostly white things. Bread is a bad, so try to stick to thin, HIGH in fiber, slices 🙂
you can google all the stuff and before you know it you will feel so good about it all and IM actually excited to start working out and all that, just because I know what it will do for me!
