If you don't want to take all that equipment, you can do some basic exercises like push-ups (works every muscle in your body!), squats, lunges, and some different ab exercises. We do those four basics in boot camp all the time and you can NOT beat it! Also, there is a new trend in exercise, I'll have to google the name....I can't remember it. Basically, it's three exercises with a 20 second on, 20 second off, and repeat that three times and then rest for two minutes. Three rounds of that. It sounds easy but it is hardddddd, lol. It gives you that burst of a work out, but keeps the cortisol from building up in your body.
