If you play computer games - bejeweled, tetris, Mahjong, cards, zuma or any of the King.com, GameHouse and you want some fitness while you play - just try the FootPOWR. It's simply a mouse you plug in to the USB, with a BIG difference. It looks like a dance game mat, sits on the floor and you stand on it, move your feet to move the mouse. http://www.footgaming.com
It's easy to slide the FootPOWR where your desk chair is for a 20-30 minute computer games break. Coolest of all it logs your steps as you play so you know how many miles you've gone and how many calories you've burned.

I have found tons of FREE videos on homelife and exercise as part of my Verizon FIOS On Demand - Free offerings to keep it easy for me to exercise in my own livingroom and save on gym membership fees. There are great ab workouts from Body By Jacque as well as Walking routines for 50+ crowd. They vary the offerings monthly and provide a link if you REALLY want to buy the DVD.
