So how many of you have been pounding the gym like never before? lol! ME!!! lol I started out only doing a half hour on the elliptical. Now, I'm doing 90 mins on 20 crossramp and 12-15 resistance daily. Killer! I do about 5 -6 zumba classes a week. 1 hour of strength training daily. 1 hour of free weights/stretching. lol. Today I was at the gym for 4.5 hours! LOL. Call it overkill, but i want to look good for Cancun and I think its good that I get thin while I'm still young and my skin has slightly more elasticity than it will in about 5 years or so! lol What machines or techniques do you guys use? Anything that works miracles? Do share!! :mermaid:
lift weights three days a week....competitive basketball two days a week....jiu jitsu three days a week....and muay thai once a week.....cant wait to see your updated pics
lol i know about hard work. I've been going every day for about 5 hours! 90 minutes on the elliptical, followed by a half hour of stretching, following by 1 hour of zumba class, then 1 hour of strength training and like 30-60 minutes on the elliptical to end the night. I have only lost 2 lbs.... but my mom said I look drastically different. I can't find the paper with my measurements on it from when I first got my gym membership in January..... GRR! But my pants are sooo big! Even with a belt they still dip low in between the belt loops! I gotta find that paper!! I started doing 5 hours day on sunday. I only did one hour of cardio yesterday.... my light day. Today I work 11 hours so no time for the gym.... but tomorrow I'll get at least one hour of cardio in. Then Monday it's back to the 5 hr routine until friday.... my light day! However!!! I do have an announcement! If anyone is looking for miracles workers.... I have 2 very amazing suggestions! The elliptical and zumba classes! With the elliptical I burn about 1400 calories in 90 minutes. So if you only do a 45 minute workout you can easily burn 700 calories!! Its amazing! Its tightening up my thighs, butt and even my love handles SOO fast! I even have an hour glass shape again! YAYYY!! lol Plus its so simple, not as boring as a treadmill, and great on joints. I have bad knees and ankles and I've had noooo problems doing the elliptical! Zumba.... wow! Amazing class! It's like your at a club but your burning calories? Can't dance? no one cares! lol. Their motto is "Join the party, ditch the workout" and it is sooo true! If you do a light workout.... you can easily burn 400 calories. But if you go as hard as you can for a full hour, its not unheard of to burn over 1500 calories! amazing! Another thing thats been tightening me up fast! Works every muscle and it gets me ready for mexico by refreshing my salsa, cumbia, reggaeton, cha-cha, and booty shaking skills! lol. I'll keep you guys updated!
