There's so much to know in the sense of a lot of the things you think you know, aren't really correct at all. And depending on your goals and where you're starting, there are different ways to train.Apex Zombiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04831580250709824079noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5354314518349892047.post-36467284953629095252010-03-25T09:49:35.059-07:002010-03-25T09:49:35.059-07:00I get sooo bored using machines at the gym....that...I get sooo bored using machines at the gym....that's why I pump, pump, PUMP it up! lol. And I do it at home too. I've been incorporating a lot more interval training at home. I like it b/c it's quick and you get a good workout and it's something different.

Since, I can't run for a while I am focusing more on that.<br /><br />One thing that may help is, and I JUST did this yesterday, to take measurements and then try to improve on those measurements.

Seriously thou...Sounds like you are pregnant...lol!<br />Seriously though you are building a baby inside of you, everything that use to be normal is going to change. Your desires for different foods and what you want to do in the form of exercise. Count it a blessing that you still are doing cardio...in all my pregnancies I couldn't do much besides sleep and rest during the first 14 weeks. <br />Do what you can and try and enjoy the fact that a beautiful baby is growing within!

I see results with weight training a whole lot quicker than cardio. My best friend is a personal trainer, so I train with her 3x per week.

The first trimester when you are growing the little person your body is readjusting, it is so normal to not have the energy/motivation to do what you normally do. You are still doing really great! I think honestly you should only start to really worry if you begin to make excuses and see your old habits coming back.Mrs. S. https://www.blogger.com/profile/12464177330075695852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5354314518349892047.post-51811915260244894482010-03-25T05:50:09.207-07:002010-03-25T05:50:09.207-07:00Uh, you are pregnant, girl!

This is probably because you have been taking such good care of yourself before the pregnancy. Keep it up and do whatever you can get to the gym and do your strength training. <br /><br />Your muscles and strength will be a huge asset to you during delivery and will significantly reduce your recovery time. <br /><br />TRUST ME!135by2012https://www.blogger.com/profile/07829398070279577230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5354314518349892047.post-42539752490261785692010-03-24T20:34:48.255-07:002010-03-24T20:34:48.255-07:00Don't be too hard on yourself.

I know I shouldn't be but it's a meat head gym, mostly body builders, so I get really self conscious. It's not all body builders of course but it's still pretty intimidating. <br /><br />So I lift weights at home. I like to do upper body one day and lower body the next. I do three exercises per muscle group generally. Sometimes four. But despite the fact I've been doing it for a while I'm not very strong because I don't stick with it for long. So I would still rank myself in the beginner and beginner/intermediate category. <br /><br />I definitely prefer cardio too though but I know both are important.Seren_Sighshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02172773686390753632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5354314518349892047.post-42728365328925289012010-03-24T19:02:40.314-07:002010-03-24T19:02:40.314-07:00I cannot afford to go to gym due to time constrain...I cannot afford to go to gym due to time constraints so I have been doing strength on my own. I am mainly concentrating on calisthenics, where we use our own body weight as resistance. You can do both upper and lower body workout that way. It requires least equipment and gives great results!CJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07633291405359858121noreply@blogger.com
