i suggest full situps. crunches are gay. (unless they're bicycle crunches or body crunches)

I wouldn't say that. Full situps take much of the movement from the hip flexors making the excercise more intense. Crunches, when done strict and in proper form, can be safer to the spine (neck and lowerback).

running is the cheapest...ingat lang sa mga aso.

i second that. i wanted to challenge myself with my sprint workout, so i went to this straight road where these three dogs hang out. every time i go to sprint, they chase me down until about 100 meters. so i jog back and repeat. they never did catch up.

just browsed through the site. very informative. ok ung alternative exercises, lalo na ung burpee. kahit sa kwarto pwede gawin.

 

My trainer makes me do a couple of sets of burpees. It really works up a sweat.

 

no money for a gym? buy a skipping rope. it burns three times more calories than jogging. mix in some bodyweight exercises for a full body workout.

 

I agree. When I go boxing I skip rope even if it's a bit of a challenge. Great work out.

 

Stair climbing works, too. You can do this before, during, after office hours. I sometimes do this when I'm at the mall just to squeeze in extra exercise and get away from the crowd.
