Exercise machine

Folks,

Looking at getting at doing around 30 minutes or so of extra exercise a day on an exercise machine of some description. I own a treadmill but I am completely bored of that now so looking to get something different and my asthma can get bad with it if I push too hard.

Would like to lose a small amount of weight but mainly just to tone up a bit. I was thinking about a cross trainer but it would be good to get people's thoughts?

Thanks

Split squats off your bed, push-ups using a backpack for addition weight, rows from your dining room table... you will do yourself more favours with those exercises than another cardio machine, because your will actually put your muscles to work.

This will bulk them out and improve your body fat percentage, whilst making you healthier overall.

Thanks for the advice

I think the reason I was considering the cross trainer is for ease really, will it not work the muscles then?

Cheers

Thanks for the advice guys.

If I spend 20 - 30 minutes per day do you guys have any sort of routine to follow? Number of exercises etc. One thing I've never been able to do are push-ups

Any help will be great!

Thanks so much to you both

Are there any particular websites that you would recommend to look up these suggested exercises? Or should I just go for a look on youtube? I've no idea what half of them are!!!

Cheers!
