    Hello,

    I’m looking to do a quick daily workout of about 5 minutes at 170bpm in my apartment without annoying the neighbours. I guess a cross trainer wouldn’t make me too popular. Any ideas?!

    Thanks!

    Good indoor exercise equipment (not cardio) include the PowerBar pull-up bar, with optional assistance straps and suspension straps :

    and

    and the Perfect Pushup handles are pretty excellent :

    for a 5 minute workout I think the perfect pushups would be good as it will take approx that to get through the 3 sets of pushups (wide, normal, narrow) x 2 reps with about 40 seconds between each set.

    Get a priest. Any denomination will do. Make sure he brings: –

    A). A bible
    B). Crucifix
    C). Holy water

    He will need to say a few prayers, hold up his crucifix and spray a bit of the water about. That should sort it for good.

    Quick question though is it a mild problem – like stuff being shoved of shelves or a proper full on blood running down the walls situation? If the latter you may also need a stain blocking paint as it will keep the blood from showing through when you redecorate.

    Ever thought of masturbation.

    I think the BPM refers to heart rate, not wrist rate.

    I’d also recommend warming up from about 60-80bpm, spending a time at about 125bpm and then only hitting 170-180 for a few seconds at the end of the workout. I wouldn’t want you to pull anything untoward.

    And of course, if you feel anything tearing in the course of the workout, stop immediately and consult an expert.

    Simple & sinister kettlebell workout by pavel. Available on kindle ideal workout for flats.

    I left the gym and bought some kettlebells and I have really enjoyed training with them. The above might be what you are looking for as the whole workout is about 20 mins every day.

    Dropping a kettlebell in your apartment might be an issue, especially if you are not on the ground floor…
