Well, I've had a few threads on here about fitness/health and exercise etc and I started questioning what I am doing after I had a chat to my sister. My sister gave me my exercise routine as it was what a personal trainer showed her, but now she has realised that it might not be what we want!!
I will first explain what I am doing at the gym...
Free weights - with my weights I put it up to a weight where I can feel it is. For example I am squatting with 30kg and I can do 9/11kg with a chest press.
Cardio - about 20 mins - 15 mins before free weights, 5 mins afterwards
Classes - BodyStep, RPM and BodyPump
What I am looking for is weight loss (I have another 10kg to lose to get to my ideal weight) as well as building some muscle, but not too much muscle!! Just to look nice and toned..
I feel like I am doing an all over and well balanced routine and I am getting results, but by doing what I am doing (lifting heavy weights) will I lose the inches around my waist and thighs or am I just going to build up the muscles and stay the same size I am?
I hope that that made sense! Its all a bit jumbled up in my head at the moment because I am really unsure of if what I am doing, I will get the results I want....
TIA![]()
