During the 2006 Atlantic tropical hurricane season you can expect large catastrophic and large category storms and hurricanes. If a large hurricane comes your way and you realize that evacuation is not such a good idea because all the gasoline is gone and all the hotels are filled up for a 1,000 mile radius and if you're out of the storm surge zone, perhaps you can stay at home and workout and do in cardiovascular and isometric exercises.

Perhaps you can purchase some gym equipment for your home and even if the lights are out and the power is off you can still work out. You will be forced to ration your food and you will not be able to eat very much, but be sure to drink a lot of water and have it available because the water lines may be broken and out for a few weeks as well.

During times of such adversity when you're stuck at home will be perfect times for you to concentrate on something that is very important to you; your health. If you are causally working out doing push-ups, sit-ups, pull-ups and other types of exercises you will lose weight.

According to law there are mandatory evacuations that are necessary and you must comply, but there are also clauses that if you cannot comply they will not come and arrest you. So if you decide to stay home you may as well do something useful that will help your health and long-term goal in losing weight. Considers the 2006.
