Can't afford Gym, what to do?

KTRIC · 2005-08-02 17:00:18

I'm going to have to leave my current gym as I can't afford it. Is there anything I can do at home to get the same results as working out in a gym. I seen the thread on pushups and I find that quite interesting. Anybody any ideas for a cheap way of toning up and maybe building up some muscle. Thanks K

Buy yourself a set of dumbells in Argos.
You can do lots of good exercises wuith just dumbells.
If you have a bit more ;get a bench and maybe a barbell set.
Xtras you can pick up cheaply are a skipping rope and a mat.
Thats all you really need.
