What are some good home exercise routines?

I’m am in college so I dont really have time to go to the gym. I’m 5′7" and weigh 157lbs. How can I lose weight and tone up without going to a gym?

What do you mean by no time to go to the gym? You mean getting to the gym and back? If you want the gain (or loss, whatever), you have to put the time into the workout.

If you lose fat, you will appear more toned, and you will lose some weight. Cut simple carbs from your diet (avoid candies, sodas, white breads, starches). Eat more fiber, less animals fats.

if you wish to build some muscle, do strength workouts. I particularly like Mina Lessig workout videos. But there are plenty of options out there with 10 or 30 (or anything in between and more) workouts. They’re all effective.

If still no time for such things, incorporate as much into daily activities as possible. Walk as much as possible. Take stairs. When you take the stairs, focus on certain leg muscles. Climb stairs on your heels and work your butt or that section of the leg. Climb them on your toes and work the calves. In general, try to feel that burn.

I would recommend at least doing a proper workout or two (find a video) so you know what it feels like.
