It is no secret that to stay healthy you have to include fitness activity in your schedule, but many of us lead very active lives and finding the necessary time for this activity can be difficult. Home fitness programs can be quite convenient when it comes to getting the necessary exercise.

There are a variety of types of home fitness programs that a person can use to get their weekly exercise:

1. Equipment-There are many types of equipment that are designed for the home. Many people have elliptical trainers, treadmills and Bowflex complete gyms. These items can be quite expensive and equipment also requires ample space for the gym equipment.

2. Exercise DVDs-These are quite popular and there a large variety of programs available. It all depends on what you like. There is no shortage of options when it comes to home exercise DVDs.

3. Yoga Ball-This is a large ball that has grown in popularity in recent years. These work well for participants that have special needs and senior citizens. They can be used for both aerobic and strength training.

4. Resistance Bands-These are my favorite and are great for strength training. They are large elastic bands that you pull on when you workout. The resistance that is created when you pull on them gives your muscles a complete workout. They are inexpensive and can easily fit in a bag or briefcase.

So as you can see, you do have options for home fitness. Some people like the structure and social aspects of going to the gym and working out. But this type of fitness routine will not fit into everyone's schedule. If you have a family or do not have time to go to the gym, home fitness will probably work better for you. It is just a matter of selecting the type of exercise or combination of exercises that you would like perform to stay healthy and in shape.
