ASoTV - Rainy Day Workouts

Sometimes, it rains during our regularly scheduled workout times, forcing us indoors. And, it's always nice to *change things up* a bit...

If you still want to run and don't have a treadmill, you can chase a fake hamster around your house. This workout will really challenge you because the fake hamster can run amock (although I believe the word that they are looking for is amok), scurrying in all different directions, both into and out of corners! Between intervals, you can stick the fake hamster on a wheel to tire it out. And, if you're worried about it getting loose around the house (because you're too slow to catch it), you can stick it in a ball. [yeah, I'm really confused about what you would need the wheel or the ball, but I guess the "more you buy the more you save"]

However, if you want to use this opportunity to cross-train, you could try to build core strength by hula hooping (because who doesn't think "dang, I forgot my hula hoop" when on vacation?!), leg strength with the Thigh Glider or Thigh Toner, and arm strength with the T-Core or everyone's favorite Shake Weight! Just make sure to clean up and put everything back in the Sports Activities Storage System. Or, if strength and conditioning is not your style, you can make your bike trainer workout more exciting by watching whatever you wish to watch on the As Seen on TV Hat.
