Work out at home -- even with limited space

Gyms are a great place to work out. You have more equipment at your disposal, there are experts on hand to answer questions, and the camaraderie can be motivating. But there's no denying the convenience of working out at home. But if you live in a small apartment or just don't have spare rooms for weight benches and other gear, what are you supposed to do?

Ellen over at Green Daily just posted about an innovative new solution called the Otto Bench. The bench serves as an ottoman when all packed up. But just open up the sides, remove the equipment and it becomes a multi-adjustable bench and a bench press as well as storing free weights.

The Otto Bench was designed for a Life Fitness contest, so it's not available for sale yet. When it is available, I think it will be a great solution for small spaces. I just hope they make it a bit more attractive than the prototype!
