Exercise??

Okay so I HATE going to the gym. I feel like everyone is staring at ME no matter how many people are there.
(Yes, I have issues LOL)
Anyway, I go to Planet Fitness in Bay shore.
If I go and do the 30 minute circuit training (like what they have at curves) and then ride the bike for say 45 minutes.....do this 3 times a week and then crunches/sit ups when i get home is that enough of a "workout"?

Re: Exercise??

You know honestly, I get SOOO bored with traditional workouts and with the gym. I just lose my interest and steam.

Instead, this time, I've dedicated myself to doing *something* active everyday, for at least 30 minutes.

Most days that means something as simple as taking a brisk walk during my lunchhour.

I've lost close to 20lbs that way, with eating right, and I don't feel like it's a workout or something I dread everyday.

Re: Exercise??

It sounds pretty good but I would vary your cardio. Ride the bike one day, brisk walk on the treadmill another day, throw in a few minutes of elliptical. If you are always doing the same routine then your body will get accustomed to it and you won't lose as much weight.

Thanks, I'll remember to change up my cardio from day to day!
