Avatar f tn Okay so I can't go to the gym. I get really bad anxiety, like I'll go to walk through the door and start crying. I've always been this way. I walk an hour a day but I'm trying to get in shape and loose 10lbs for vacation in August.
Avatar n tn I have been going to the gym about 4 times a week. I usually do the elliptical for 30 minutes an then go to the weight room and do arm and leg machines. For some reason I am still struggling with losing weight and I have also been watching what I eat. Some say I do too much of a repetition and my body is used to the work out. I need some good work out plans to help me!
Avatar f tn Ellipticals work arms to some extent and mostly work the thighs and the rest of your legs. Ellipticals are very good at building muscle if you can handle high resistance -- the setting is up to you. They are mostly cardio if you work at low resistance and move quickly; they are mostly resistance training if you put the resistance up very high in which case you will have to go much more slowly.
Avatar f tn As long as it was something you did before you got pregnant and you dont push yourself too hard you should be fine! I'm 24wks+3 and still hit the gym for a workout or 2 each week. I do the same routines and exercises as before but toned back the intensity and weights. Even if you just jog in intervals? Say 30secs to 1 min at a time and walk the same to allow for recovery and rest! I find I tire easier so allow more time for rest.
Avatar m tn Yesterday I was at LA Fitness gym, at the end of my workout a guy was asking me about the roundhouse karate kicks I do over the machines in between weight training sets. While I was explaining my workout routine to him I had a sense that he might be high on pain meds. He had this calm peaceful look with a faint smile and his eyes were glassy and a little red. I thought I might be imagining things because of my opiate experience and recently getting over a mild relapse.
Avatar n tn I wouldnt go to the gym. Grab a step stool and maybe some 1 lb. Weights and throw on some good music.
505857 tn?1329681517 t have a lot of confidence, has anyone else found this class a good weight loss class? Will i manage some of the routines being overweight?
Avatar n tn since several months, I often go to the gym to make my workout. Therefore, my hands and arms are often exposed to the machines that everyone uses there. And on my hands, sometimes, I have little blisters or cuts (which don't bleed, however); I had large sunburns on by arms (which were partially healed, because the skin was not red anymore and not sore at all). I recently read that gyms were "dirty" places with lots of germs.
Avatar f tn It is also advised to rotate between various workout schedules. If working at the gym, you may like to skip two days a week and go for options like aerobics, swimming etc. The workout regime needs to be balanced, along with a healthy diet as recommended for the height and the physical work. Make sure to keep your body adequately hydrated. Also a healthy weight loss should be aimed gradually. With steady and ‘healthy’ efforts you should be back on the tract of losing weight soon.
Avatar f tn Ashley, I joined a gym (YMCA) and it made me pack on the pounds, last year. Interestingly, my brother had the same exact experience. He was also working out at at gym and he lost his attractive physique. I am a healthy, slim weight to begin with. But I joined the gym to firm up and feel better with more energy, and more muscle definition. Let me tell you, I looked like hell after going to that gym 4x weekly. I looked like a big ugly thick brick.
637356 tn?1301924822 I start back to college next week plus working, but one of my college classes is walking for life gym class so until the DVDs get here I will at least be doing work outs in gym 4 times a week.

1543882 tn?1293417476 i believe most of it is in the head. you just have to make the right decisions at the time that you need to make it. usually the bad decision will make u regret it. and feel bad bout urself. so no that before your decisions in eating. start little i started walking the dog 2 miles a day. then got into the gym when i felt comfortable enough not to feel embarrassed. now im a gym buff buy a bike. the best work out ever and the weight comes off quick eating wise.
7045779 tn?1394737965 So I haven't been working out since I found out I was preggo.. So I'm 5 Months nd I believe I haven't gone for 4 months lol I was very active before then... So Nways I workout for an hour today. Js cardio tho. Walking for 30 mins nd 30 mins elliptical! I'm not overdoing it right? Im Js little worried that I might've done too much today..
Avatar f tn I also am still going to the gym. I am 16 weeks and 5 days. I go on the eliptical, bike and walk on the treadmill.
Avatar f tn Hi I am 5 weeks, and I was wondering if I can go to the gym still?! I wasn't too faithful before I found out I was pregnant is it safe?
Avatar n tn It takes some heat and friction in order for the virus to be transmitted to someone. The skin on the buttocks and the thigh area is too thick for the virus to easily penetrate and infect someone so just coming in contact with active virus on a surface or a hand isn't going to be enough to transmit it." It made me feel better. heat and friction is needed for transmission on normal skin like arms. i;m zero risk.....right?
Avatar m tn I have made up my mind to try again, I figure I should go join the workout gym. I just want to know do you think this would be a good start, as well as using the thomas recipe items that I have from the last time. I have to start somewhere. Also, can someone please tell me what would be the best workout routines to start with? I know I wont have the energy, but Im willing to push....I have to. Last time i started by just walking the tracks, then jogging the tracks.
Avatar m tn Does anyone know what the one best workout or workouts I can do for my chest,arms to grow an inch or 2
Avatar f tn s fine to do things you did before because your body is use to it. Today I did bootcamp for the first time was a little nervous. Just wondering if anyone else if active like this? And if I should be worried?
Avatar f tn Running for me got really uncomfortable. As for the gym, I used to workout really hard and if I can't do my normal routine I don't want to do it at all.
Avatar f tn but we are all at the gym to either better ourselves or to maintain what we have! Now get up and go to the gym. Meet new people and become a gym rat.
Avatar n tn Good for you! But what pointing are you making? Though I do appreciate a good brag!
1963845 tn?1376030809 s been like months, I did not go to the gym. Is there any possible way for me to work out at home without using weights? Oh, is there any substitute for weights?
Avatar f tn Anyone workout till the end ? or how late into pregnancy did you. Im 35 weeks and still going to the gym. (4 days ) my dr. Said to stay active since i was extremely active before but i was wondering if anyone is doing the same or plan to.. or did it help with bringing labor or thru labor ?
Avatar f tn I had a csection 2 months ago and my Dr told me I can go back to the gym and do whatever type of exercise i want but im not too shure about that... I know i cant lift anything heavy but can Run, zumba, etc?
Avatar f tn I need a good workout plan for me without having to visit a gym. Are there any good, trustworthy and up-to-date sites that I can save to keep going back to do these exercises over and over each day? Or would anyone have any suggestions on where to begin?
