Cardio Exercises

[Mofoman]

I don't have much time or money to goto the gym or buy some equipment for my house. Outside of a couple dumbbells, the only exercises I do are pushups, sittups, and stretches. I want to expand into doing some type of cardio exercises, but I really can't think of anything I can do in my own house besides jumping jacks, or jumping rope, or maybe running in place...are there any other kinds of exercises I can do to get my heart rate up, with minimal space, and minimal money?

suggestions, the first being the best one IMO in terms of no money and no space in the crib:

go outside and run!!!

find some stairs or better yet a middle/high school stadium where you can run the stairs

purchase a bike or other cardio machine that will take up a corner of a room from a secondhand equip shop, or check the classifieds/trader magazine/etc.. you can get them for VERY reasonable prices.

Put on some Techno music and just wild out on some dance machine type shiet.

I paid under $300 for my bike from Sears, they had cheaper ones but I wanted the one that had the heart rate thingy on it, needless to say I've learned they arent accurate. Its on my patio and if it rains I push it into my living room and it doesnt take up much space at all.

What is this?

I might try to just search for a cheap or used exercise bike, but my house is so cluttered I don't really have anywhere I could put it.

You can do high intensity drills in your home

do jumping jacks for a minute straight

then do push ups for a minute striaght

then do high knees for a minute

then do butt kicks for a minute

Repeat...

Well maybe you should start with cleaning up...that'll get your heart rate up for sure.
LOL!
