We have prepared a list of household items that you can use to lose weight without spending a lot of money. Most likely, you already have everything you need at home so you can get started right now.


Water bottles or soup cans


You can use one in each hand for some lighter arm workouts because an eight-ounce water bottle weighs about one-and-a-half pounds. Cans are a bit lighter, but they can also be used as lightweights.


A sack of sugar or flour


If you`re thinking of doing some weight lifting, you could get any of these sacks and put them in your "home gym," where you can conveniently use them.


A towel


Towels can be used for more than merely wiping away sweat after a workout. To make a DIY resistance band, simply draw it straight between your hands.


Vacuum Cleaner


To get some at-home sledge pushes, pile some weight on top of your vacuum cleaner and move it around the room.


A backpack


To add some extra poundage to your bodyweight moves, fill a backpack with cans and bottles. Wear it for squats, lunges, pushups, or when you`re running up and down the stairs.
