How about a stationary bike and treadmill? As far as music, try some mid to late classic rock and roll from the late 1960s.

Be careful that the music you listen to does not trigger

This is all very helpful! This is what i finally did I bought some adjustable dumbbells (used) and a suspension trainer (TRX) with that a jump rope and some running I've been able to fully replace the mixed gym I used to attend!

I googled some workouts and built a program for a 30 to 45 minute workout a day (push ups, rows, pull ups, burpies, etc). I searched in youtube for guys doing the insanity workouts and with that I was able to filter out the non tznius content and incorporate some of the moves and workout structure (lol I still don't understand why somebody would record themselves performing somebody else's workout, food for thought). I recommend downloading a HIT Timer to optimize your time.

I agree that the music that I mentioned could be problematic-however, "popular music" from that time period pales in comparison for what passes for "popular music" today-which is far worse in content ( and especially in a music video-which I would suggest pushes the envelope of "acceptable" imagery and content continuously.

lately i have been attending to krav maga classes (alll men all Jewish) and hapkido classes (just me and my brothers) and it has been very helpful in a lot of different ways, not just with the lust, but also with stress and self esteem.
