Starting out at college is a time of excitement, anticipation, and oftentimes, extreme nervousness. There are a whole host of prospects that can leave any freshman filled with anxiety, from making friends to maintaining good grades to knowing which classes to take.

Today’s infographic takes a look at the best ways for college students to stay fit even in the middle of a dorm room.
