How I Work Out

My cousin sent me a message on Facebook the other day asking what I was going in the gym & if I had any advice.. honestly...NO. I don't have a routine & that's one of the things that has been bothering me. I feel like I have no routine, and it's frustrating as hell... I know I'm not going for bulking up, I'm going for slimming down, so, I'm probably heavier than most other people on my cardio workouts.

Make no mistake, I go & lift weights too -- but not super heavy body building weights. And no ladies...it's not all yoga & zumba! Muscle eats away at fat, it speeds up your metabolism.. build some muscle!

Today, I marked as cardio day (I guess?) I went & did the following (in this order):

• 30 minutes on the stationary bike, low resistance, high speed
• 30 minutes walking on the treadmill (2.7mph) and incline between 1.0 & 5.0 (I switched throughout the walk at random order).
• 30 minutes on the elliptical trainer (random resistance setting) level 3.

I'm going to start doing a Couch-to-5k program. I'd really like to do my first 5k this fall. We'll see how that goes lol I'm terrible at running.

I'll start getting into more of a routine (or at least documenting what I do) and jot it all down on here for anyone who wants to read it :)
