Help Me! what can i do to exercise outside of a gym?

over the years ive belonged to gyms and went through spurts of going regularly. I havent been to a gym in almost 2 years (i stopped going when i was about 8-9 weeks pregnant)

my son is now 13 months and i want to exercise but i dont have a lot of time to go to a gym. what can i do at home that would actually work?
are there any workout dvd's that are recommended? i know insanity would be too advanced for me right now since i havent done anything in almost 2 years.

Please share any advice you have for me. ive been really depressed about my body for months Chat Icon

Can you go for walks/runs?

What about different body weight exercises? I found some great interval workouts on Pinterest actually that require nothing but yourself!

Some people like Jillian Michaels 30 day shred---I would suggest that as a starting out point for sure.

I loved the Insanity program and still use it on days that I can't get to the gym or in place of my regular cardio.

I love Physique 57, that class has helped me achieve such amazing results.

I go to the classes in NYC but also own the DVDs. Its a tough workout but there are different levels so you aren't starting with anything too crazy like Insanity.

I actually have a blog called Quitting the Gym where I discuss working out at home - it is still a new blog but I already have some free online workout links and reviews of home workouts up among other things.

Bodyrock.tv is amazing for quick at-home workouts. Also, different DVDs - if you want a challenge but aren't quite up to Insanity yet try P90X! Also, definitely Physique 57 - LOVE IT! (Thanks Rachel! Chat Icon )
