Don’t Have Time for an Exercise Class? Join the “Not Going to the Club” Club

I don’t know about you but I find it hard to get to the gym because I am so busy.

I spend a lot of time trying to figure out how little exercise I need to get by – check out my articles - How Much Exercise Do You Need for a Longer Life? and the scintillating Who Needs Cross-Fit? Five Minutes is All You Need.
Call me lazy or maybe just pragmatic because I don't love exercise and I can always come up with an excuse to avoid it.
I happen to kinda enjoy group exercise classes (except for Step – argh) because it is much more fun to work out with other people than on my own but sometimes I can’t get there and therefore I do nothing. Should I give up?
Should I buy a treadmill, stationary bike or put a gym in my garage? No!!
Instead, I have started to use a tool that can be found right here on your computer or phone. The secret is….YOUTUBE!! (duh)
I have fallen in love with Jessica Smith TV because she makes it so ridiculously easy to get a workout in.
Check out this workout that takes only five minutes, requires no equipment, and can be done in a small space:
Isn’t that great? What I really love is how her dog is either sleeping or walking in and out of the frame. Not only is this woman an excellent fitness instructor – she is a dog lover.
I can choose a workout for how much time I have – 5, 12, 20, or 30 minute workouts – and just change into my sports bra and shorts and hop up in down in my bedroom where no one will see me jiggle.
I find her tone supportive and her workouts challenging but doable.
I was hoping we could all share our favorite at home fitness gurus – channels and DVDs so we can get a list of resources going in the comments section.
Do you have a favorite fitness channel on Youtube? How do you deal with not going to the gym?

Some people have no problem with exercise. They get up, run, walk, go to the gym, and move seemingly without effort....
