Exercise without equipment.

Hi,
      Due to hectic schedules and sometimes due to some reasons not being able to go to gym daily may disturb your exercise routine a lot.
We always think how are we going to this weight training exercises in home without any gym equipment available in our home or any place wherever its possible to do exercise.
       You don't have to own your own gym to workout. You can always go for household goods. 
I'm now going to mention what you can do and which household items are good for this:-

• ARM EXERCISE :-Take one lb or 450 grams of vegetable tin or soup as it make a good hand weights for arm exercises.In the same way hand size of bottles or cans of soft drink. (Don't open them immediately after use.) Holding the weight on each hand at your sides,alternately raise each arm to shoulder level.

• STRENGTHENING HANDS GRIP:- To make your grip strong squeeze a tennis ball or tightly rolled socks on each hand.Do this exercise at least for 2 minutes in each hands.

• LEGS :- To stretch your calves sit on the floor with your legs straight, now take bath towel loop it around the ball of one foot and try to pull it towards you while resisting it with your foot this will create tension in your calf do this for 2 minutes on each foot.

• ANKLE WEIGHTS:- Fill socks with dry sand ,dry rice,dry beans .Weigh them 900 gm and tie them shut,leaving enough room in the toe to fasten the weight round your ankles. Lie on your back with one knee bent and the other leg straight making sure your lower back is flat on the floor.Raise the straight leg as high as you can.Switch the position of both legs and repeat.

• CHAIR EXERCISE FOR LEGS :- Rest your ankle on back of chair at hip height,keeping the leg straight.Bend forward, getting your face as close to your knee and your hands as close to your ankle as possible;hold for 5 seconds.Repeat with the other leg.

• SIDE V CUT EXERCISE:- Stand holding a towel above your head,and pull on the ends so that you bend sideways at the waist.Repeat, bending the other way. Don't lean back or forward otherwise it will effect your back.

THIS ARE THE EXERCISES WHICH YOU CAN DO IN HOME FOR WEIGHT TRAINING OTHER THAN THIS SOME EXERCISES YOU CAN DO WITHOUT DISTURBING YOUR WORK OR TIME.

EXERCISING ON THE GO

• Whenever possible walk ,jog or cycle to work.Carry your work shoes in a bag.

• If you take a bus or train,get off 1 mile /1.6 km before your stop and walk the rest of the way.

• use the stairs ,not the lift or escalator.

WHILE WATCHING A TELEVISION

• Ride an exercise bike,bounce on a mini trampoline,skip with a rope or run in place while watching your favourite programmes.

WHILE ON THE TELEPHONE

• Use wrist and ankle weights to do leg lifts and arm raises while you are talking on the phone.

WHILE DOING HOUSEWORK

•  Warm up with a light activity such as dusting or washing dishes, then proceed to vigorous vacuuming ,sweeping or floor polishing for 20-30 minutes.Upbeat music  may help to keep you moving.

• To pick up light items from the floor,stand with your feet apart,arms at your sides.Bend slowly from your waist until you reach the floor,flexing your knees if you have to.Count to ten before straightening slowly,lifting your head last.

Doors related problems and its solution

                 Out of many household problems one major one is the problems related to doors in home.Whether its new or old doors some time it creates unbearable problems which must be taken care as soon as possible.

             For some problems we call carpenter or helpers and pay them large amount for small problems too which we can already take care by self only.

              Paying for small problems is not beneficial for us as it takes away our time and money too. 

So I am going to sort out some major problems arising in our home commonly and there solutions to do it yourself.

Here they are:-

Door

• When door can't stay open ,check the hinges .If one has shifted or hinges are loose or if any hinge screw is loose,reset the hinge in its original position and tighten the screws. If a screw cannot be tighten ed because the holes has been stripped or enlarged,remove it,pack the hole with as small piece of wood dipped in PVA adhesive                                                                                                                                                        https://www.amazon.in/Tran-PVA-Adhesive-Glue-4-Ounce/dp/B0027A7GT4                                                                                                                                                                reinsert the screw and tighten securely.                                                                                                                                                                                 
  
•                                       Door Hinge screw                                               

• Quietening the door that slams with noise stick a strip of foam rubber to the edge of the doorstop moulding. Peel and stick foam weather stripping tape works well.A short length of foam near the top and bottom of the frame will often suffice.you can also try a narrow strip of cork or leather.                                                                                                                                           
• To keep a door from slamming against the wall when it opens fit a rubber door stop to the floor. This is the basic solution which everyone already knows.

Rubber door stop

• For child's room we can make an easy door bumper: put a rubber ball in a sock and hang it from inside doorknob.Child cannot close the door accidentally or slam it on the wall.                       
• In kitchen cabinet doors the self closing hinges  make them slam shut.Muffle the noise with bumpers made of silicone rubber sealant.                                                                                                                           
  

                     Bumpers made of Silicone rubber sealant

                    Put two small blobs of sealant -each about the size of a pencil rubber -on the inside corners of each door,one at the top and the other at the bottom.Then place strips of sticky tape on the cabinet where the sealant makes contact.

                  Smear each tape strip with a tin film of petroleum jelly to keep the sealant from sticking when the door is closed.and to act as a spacer, tape a small piece of 1/8 in /3 mm thick cardboard to the cabinet between the tape strips. 

            Close the door ,let the sealant dry overnight,then peel off the tape and cardboard.

         Few common things about doors are given above but if you have more problems other than this you can refer to the link below where you can find out all the solutions related to door troubleshooting repairs and many more.
