Working Out When You Have No Equipment

So as I mentioned last Friday, we’ve moved out of our friends’ house and are now currently living with my parents. We were sad to have to say goodbye to friends, and having to do an extra move certainly was not enjoyable, but we all agreed that with our crazy schedules it was just the right time. Thankfully, we’re fairly re-settled once again, and my parents have been great.

Only 30 more days…please, only 30 more days! I’m ready to have our own space again.

As sad as we were to leave our friends, I’m not going to lie…I’m also missing their awesome basement gym! I haven’t lifted weights in almost two weeks and wow, do I miss it. Knowing that Kanika and Shaheen had weights at their house, I went ahead and packed all of my freeweights up…and now it’s anyone’s guess as to where they are…

I’m hoping to do somewhat of a “basement dive” within the next few days to try and see if I can find them. And in addition to that, I’m seriously on the hunt for a barbell some weights to use for my Les Mills Pump DVD’s…but apparently, it’s SUPER hard to find one?!

All I’m able to find lately are Olympic sized barbells, which are much larger than I’d prefer. So for all of my fellow Pump lovers (and teachers of it!) out there, do any of you know the best place to find smaller barbells like they use for Pump???

*Edited to add: I recently came across this barbell set and this barbell set. Do either of these look like the standard size they use in Pump (I can’t remember)? Are they overpriced?

So, in the meantime, I’ve been completely without weights. And while I let that be an excuse for a day or two, I realized that I needed to get back into it with some bodyweight exercises. Luckily, I have a fairly good arsenal of workouts, so I wanted to share them with you guys today!

All of these are NO EQUIPMENT NEEDED, so just grab some space and get movin’.
