sbgrace Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 One of my son's prefers to do a fair amount of his exercise inside these days--I won't go into why, but it's not worth the battle to force the issue. He really needs aerobic exercise to regulate himself emotionally, sleep well, etc. He told me today he thinks the motor on his treadmill, which he uses nearly daily since the shut down, was overheating. I will have my husband look at it with him tonight, but it smelled like burning when I checked and a new treadmill is not financially feasible for us right now, nor is other similarly priced equipment. I wondered if someone might have a video, download, or similar less expensive recommendation I could make to him? He would need something to get his heart rate up equivalent to a run in terms of level of exertion. He would not want complicated moves/anything that requires a lot of coordination.

Kassia Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 Insanity by Shaun T. sounds like it would be perfect for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kiwik Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 Would he use an exercycle? They seem easier to buy second hand and cheaper. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dainty Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 Beachbody on demand has been a big hit here. (and I HATE mtm's). 3 of us, includin 2 teen boys, use the videos and all have our own favorites. It's been worth the subscription. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alisoncooks Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 My first thought was BBOD - they have a lot of athletic-feeling workouts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alisoncooks Posted May 13, 2020 Share Posted May 13, 2020 Also, Kelly Coffey-Meyer (30 Min to Fitness) has several cardio workouts but she made two "Athletic Conditioning" workouts designed for teens. https://www.totalfitnessdvds.com/30-Minutes-to-Fitness-Athletic-Conditioning-Kell-p/998.htm 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
