What's the best work out to do at the gym??

Question

I just joined a gym and I'm getting married in June! I was just wondering what types of exercises, as in lifting weights, running, etc. I should do to lose some weight?? Right now i work out 4 times a week! I start off walking/running then lift weights 2 sets of 10 of bench press, leg curls, etc. and then end with more walking to cool down. Any suggestions on what i should do more if any??? Thanks

Answer 1

The best classes to take are yoga and pilates because they not only burn calories, they also create a lean and strong physique, which is what most women desire. If no classes are available use the treadmill to both warm up and cool down, 20 min or so each at a steady pace and comfortable incline, then move on to something more cardio such as the elliptical for about 15-20 min, or as long as you can. After the cardio, you can lift weights to tone and stretch or use a work out ball. Just remember to walk for about 20 min. when you're done to bring your heart rate back down.

You are doing great. Relax. You need to do this. Don't compare yourself to what is an illusion with most. Take care of yourself, like you are doing, and limit your daily calorie intake to between 1200-1600 and eat 4 to 6 times a day. Yes, a day 4-6 times by dividing your meals.
Try out different classes(Yoga, Pilate's(sp) etc) along with your weight training. Think of intensity during exercise. I find this to be more beneficial. Less times a week, but more intense during.

If they conduct classes (steps/pump/dance classes) in your gym, you could join them besides working out by yourself. Good thing about classes is that you get to check if you're doing anything wrong. Also, it's so much more fun when you're doing something as a group!

The best to lose weight is the step machine. I burn about 900-1000 calories every hour on it. Then do weights, when you gain muscle you lose fat, therefore lose weight.
