Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites hungarianchick 0 #40 October 20, 2004 I usually work out 4-5 days a week and do a variety of things. I believe in challenging my body with new forms of exercise. Recently I started boxing, which I found incredible for balance as well as arms, back and legs. I didn't think I was going to be as sore as I was. I also do a session of cardio kickboxing once a week and run 3-4 miles once a week combined with weight training. For the remaining 1-2 sessions I do wathever I feel like such as a class. Well, it works and the feeling afterwards is worth it! "I love cooking with wine. Sometimes I even put it in the food."

My new soda policy is "Only at the DZ on the weekends or at the movies." The best way to start getting back into shape, once you're really out of shape, is to start doing a regular workout that doesn't feel like a workout at all. Your first few days (or weeks, depending on your current physical condition) should feel like a joke. Contrary to popular belief, a good workout does not have to make you sore the next day to be effective. Don't feel like you need to be pushing your limits from the very beginning; just get your body used to the regular physical activity and the specific exercises you'll be doing. Lift very little weight, and do some real light cardio training (running, bicycling, aerobics, etc.) on a regular basis, until you start to feel your strength and stamina increasing; then you can up the weight and the cardio training. Do just enough that you BARELY have to strain--Your body isn't ready for any serious strain yet. It's not about going out and trying to kill yourself by straining as hard as you can for three hours the first day; it's about doing a consistent workout on a regular basis. Design a workout you feel like you'll be able to do on a regular basis. Don't design a three hour workout if you work twelve hours a day because there's very little chance you'll be able to stick with it. The mistake many people make is thinking that they need to be doing a long strenuous workout every day before they're getting anything out of it, and if they can't do that, they figure there's no use messing with it.
