Not going to be in a gym all summer :(

Guys, as you all know we live in times where work is not easy to get. I just finished year 1 of school but I need to work my arse off this summer to help pay for a new house i've got near my Uni. Now i've found work (yay for me) but it's nowhere near my Uni. Its an 90-120 minutes away. So its cool, I can stay with family this summer but what the hell am I gonna do?

I cant see any gyms letting me join for just 2-3 months (its all about these ****ing 6-24 month contracts these days), and just sitting here typing I feel like I should be busting out some weights in a gym right now! I have no free weights here.

Any half decent exercises I can do using my own body as resistance? I mean I'd be prepared to do 4 sets of pressups, with variations like using 3 chairs and wider grips for ground pressups. Just not sure what I can do for all other body parts. Any suggestions would be most appreciated.

pushups with someone laying on your back. squats with someone laying on your shoulders. dips. if you wanna workout bad enough, you will find a way. in the meantime, if it were me, i would get on some clenbuterol , or albuterol. something that is very anti-catabolic. that is, if you can't workout.

Praps a gym will take you on if you pay the 3 months up front?

Go for a run with a seriously heavy loaded bag... (sh!t idea..)

Some gyms will let you go month to month if you are willing to pay a little higher monthly fee. At least the gym near me does this. With the way the economy is you should be able to work something out with somebody. Gyms need money too.

x2. Theres gotta be a way on month to month. My gym does.
They always have 2-3 month summer specials and whatnot.

But if all else fails....
push ups and variations
pull ups if you can
run sprints, lunges, bodyweight squats
chair dips
find big heavy rocks/logs/etc and press them, shrug them,row them, curl them etc...

lol, just gotta make stuff work.

Bodybuilding with nature. I like it.
