There is no excuse for packin' on the extra pounds anymore. FitTV, a cable station that offers 20 hours of fitness and health programming every day, is your own personal, free at home gym. So get your butt off the couch and turn on the TV!

This might be the coolest thing ever! It's a fast, easy, and fun way to work out, and it's a great alternative for people who are a tad intimidated by the gym (or the muscle men benching 300 pounds everywhere you turn).

FitTV is the only network dedicated to fitness and keeping exercise accessible and fun for everyone. The station offers a plethora of workout choices, from Pilates and aerobics to body sculpting, yoga, belly dancing and hip hop. There are so many different ways to workout that boredom is completely nonexistent, which is a lot of people's problem when it comes to working out.

FitTV is armed with young and cheerful instructors clad in workout gear and hard bodies that make you work that much harder! There are also exotic locations. You may be in your living room, but the instructors are helping you tone your bod from the golden sands of Hawaii. If the instructors aren't inspiration enough than the gorgeous beaches are; after all swimsuit season is right around the corner!

FitTV also includes lifestyle programing on nutrition and weight loss, and a video-on-demand service allows viewers to call up favorite shows at will. It is so easy to just pick the workout you are feelin' that day, and pairing the exercise with the nutrition and weight loss information really makes FitTV a big hit. It is just one of the newest additions to the "get fit" craze!
