As a personal trainer, I don’t need the top of the line exercise equipment or weight machines to get an intense workout; all I need is motivation!

Resistance bands are fairly easy to come by, and you should be able to pick one up at your local sporting goods store for $6 to $20. Resistance bands are similar to cables, but less expensive and easy to transport. Dumbbells can also be found at your local sporting goods store or online as well. The price of dumbbells vary due to their weight and size.

The workout regimen below consists of several different resistance band and dumbbell exercises that target your entire body. I recommend performing two to three sets of 20 repetitions three to five days a week. I also recommend supplementing the workout regime below with 30 to 60 minutes of cardiovascular training per day for three to five days a week as well. Good luck!
