Water Jug & Towel Full Body Workout

I’ve always said that working out is more about my mental well being than my physical fitness. Obviously, there are many physical benefits to staying fit and I strive to embrace them all. But my biggest benefit for working up a good sweat is the mental health component. The endorphines that are released after a good workout are soooooo crutial to my keeping a positive state of mind.

Say Hello to Your At Home Gym for under $100

As a mom, wife, trainer, taxi driver, cook, creative, cleaning lady and schedule coordinator (to name a few:) my schedule is rather hectic! As a result, it is soooo much easier for me to workout at home. While I do enjoy heading to the gym to try new equipment and workout with friends, the ease of walking down to the basement and getting in a killer workout can’t be beat! When I reference walking down to my basement to workout, please don’t be deceived. It is the basement in a hundred year old house with low ceilings, a washer and dryer, area for kids to watch tv and….an area for me to keep my at home gym equipment. By no means do I have a large, designated space to use only as a gym. I’ve carved out a small area in a multi-functioning basement that I call my gym. And truth be told…I LOVE IT! Nothing beats having the ability to get your workout in at 5am or waiting until after you drop your daughter off for basketball practive that night. I have been collecting equipment for my at home gym for quite some time now, but I have put together some favorites that can get you started with your own at home gym for under $100. Yes!!! UNDER $100!!! Whether your space is outside, in your bedroom, your family room or any corner you can clear out, you DO have room to create your own at home gym. The following pieces of equipment will get you well on your way to creating a healthy life, happy life. So, say HELLO to your own at home gym!
