Another day, another post :)
Since I've become a little fitness freak lately, I wanted to keep you a bit updated on my recent workout schedule.
I told you that I started working out in January and since then, I kept up my motivation. When I don't work out for a couple of days, I don't feel good, so I try to work out as often as possible.
First I started with a plan where I began with a short warm up for about 15 minutes on the treadmill, then I did a full body workout on the machines to build up muscle mass. I did some stuff which was familiar to me because I used to have a gym membership once (which I never really took that serious), but most of the things I did was new to me. I started out with my legs, my booty, then shoulders and in the end I did a really hard exercise for my abs which I HATED at first. Then I finished with cardio on the treadmill again for 30 minutes.
I noticed quick changes and I loved it. After a couple of weeks I even had one dress size smaller than I used to have.
In March I started with a new plan since you shouldn't do one plan for a longer period of time because your muscles (and your brain) get used to it. My trainer also told me it would be better if I do a cardio workout for at least 45 minutes to an hour without a break to burn more fat so I can reach my goals faster. First I thought he's crazy for thinking that I'm even able to stand on a treadmill for an hour but now I got so used to it that I don't even bother anymore,
Afterwards I do a full body workout, but new exercises which basically train the same areas but in a different way so I don't get bored.
I also started with Pilates which I LOVE, and Hot Yoga only for a week now, but it works! The reason for that was to get me out of the gym and learn something new. You also do a lot of stretching at those courses, which is also good for your shape and for your posture as well.
I work out 4-5 times a week.
Sometimes I just go swimming for an hour, so variation in my workout schedule is really important to me. My next plan for summer is probably to go mountain biking or do some hiking, I enjoy nature and when it's getting warmer, I want to get out for sure :)
