Good exercise while laying on bed?

[M i n 0 u h]

After work, I get too tired/lazy to do some workouts, plus there's not enough room in my bedroom to do some cardio and I'm too shy/nervous to do some in the living room (Because family and stuff emotion_facepalm ) Since I now live in the city, i'm scared to go runing and I don't have the money for a gym membership.

That being said, Im always on my bed with my laptop, so I was wondering if any of you fellow gaians knows any good excercise while laying on my bed? emotion_kirakira

(Sorry for my spelling, english is not my native language)

Thank you! 4laugh heart

Actually yes, there's a pilate I do that works great. It works out the abs a lot and legs a little.

for most effectiveness (this will be harder) have your legs hang off the the end instead of resting on the floor/bed. There are other styles you can look up.

If you have a little floor space (because it is harder on the bed since the mattress is soft) try planking starting from maybe 30 seconds and increasing the time from there.
Planking really works out the abs.
Also maybe do some crunches smile

Hi Cookz Monster

Try these (you can google them to find out):

1. Planking
2. Reverse ab crunch
3. Air bike
4. Butt lift
5. Side leg lift

Hope this helps!

I like to do some yoga. But movement is pretty limited to sitting and laying positions.

You can also do dumbbell exercises to tone your arms.



Your best bet though is to make just enough room (2x2ft space) and do standing work outs.
There are tons that will help tone your legs and core. You can also lay your lappy on the bed (watch a video!), or play some music.

Nice, I was going to suggest the same. Besides, your bed is where you sleep, so it can make you feel lazy/tired (that's why I don't study there anymore). Freshman year of college I had a super small single and I was too far from the gym to go consistently, so I cleared a little space in my room and did the following generic workout:

Squats.
Push-ups.
Sit-ups.
Upside shoulder press.
Bicep curls.
Dips.
Etc.

There was more, just don't remember most of it. I hit the gym now.

Good luck!
