When the air is bitter cold or sweltering hot the last thing that you want to do is exercise outside. In the winter you have not only the bitter cold, but the patchy ice to contend with. This could pose a safety issue. The early hours or late evenings in the summer are also ideal, however you may not have time to exercise before work and you may be exhausted by the time that evening rolls around. Even so, this too poses safety issues. So when is a good time to exercise. Well, we are all different, but I like to exercise when I get home from work before it gets too late in the evening. The evening is when I like to wind down and prepare for the following day because we all know that it comes on very quickly.
This is great, but exercising indoors and exercising outdoors is quite different. Basically, there is not much to look at. At http://www.treadmilltourist.com/ they have come up with a solution to squelch the indoor exercise boredom. There they have virtual jogging, walking and bike riding DVDs on sale to purchase. There are also videos for elliptical and spinning exercises and more. You can take a virtual walk through Venice, Rome, the English countryside and Appian Way while you march in place in front of your television. Their bike riding virtual DVDs take you to down the highway in Maine, as well as other fascination places.
There are numerous DVDs that are available for purchase that will entertain you as you walk, ride, jog, spin or whatever form of exercise it is that you do. When you pop one of these DVDs into your player and start to exercise you will be so entranced in what is on your television screen that the time passes quickly. The more involved you are with what you are watching the longer you will exercise.
Treadmill Tourist has video clips of each DVD to look through and pick out the DVD that appeals to you the most. This allows you to check it out before you buy it. Exercising can be fun when you watch these virtual walks. It sure beats looking at the wall!
