Hi Pumpkin, welcome to the fitness department! How long have you been exercising? What's your regimen?

pumpkin2008 · 16 February 2009

Thanks for the welcome guys!
I have been exercising again from 5th Jan 09, I did exercise for a year or two but had quit around September time.
I want to lose 4st, but am not weighting myself much, as this tends to make me binge if I havn't lost any weight or if I've gained a lb or two!
I'm following SW somedays, and somedays I'm calorie counting.
I'm going to the gym 4 days a week, this is my workout schedule;
Mon- A.M- 45min spin, 45min pilates, P.M- 45min pump (2hrs 15mins total)
Tues- P.M- 45min spin, 45min boxercise, 45min pilates (2hrs 15mins total)
Wed- REST (as I work 11 hour shift)
Thurs- A.M- 45min spin, 45min pump (1hr 30mins total)
Fri- P.M- 45min spin (45mins total)
Sat- REST
Sun- 30min walk

I'm off work all this week though, so I aim to do alot more, but today I had too much on so I'm only able to go to the gym this evening.

nexangelus · 16 February 2009

Wow! That is a hectic gym schedule...I don't do so much cardio, as I tend to lift weights more...I average out an hour of cardio and an hour of weight training five days per week.

Keep it up...exercise is great!

pumpkin2008 · 16 February 2009

So, this 6 weeks gives me enough time to lose some weight for summer.
I pledge to;
Go to Spin; Mon, Tues and Thurs
Go to Pump; Mon, Thurs
Go to Pilates ;Mon, Tues
Go to Bodyblast; Mon
Go to Club Combat; Fri.
Go to Club Box; Tues

Sounds good, when are you planning to run your 10km race? I am doing my first on 10th May (Bristol 10km) am looking forward to it!!!

pumpkin2008 · 27 April 2009

Hey nexangelus, sorry that should say completed! I done it on 5th April, without training! I had injured my back and wasn't going to do it, but couldn't get refund for the hotel (i done it in Dublin- the Great Ireland Run) and was on the mend, so just went for it anyway. I had to walk bits though. It took me 1 hr 17mins. Good luck for your 10k, it's such a great atmosphere and a great buzz! x

pumpkin2008 · 27 April 2009

Monday 27th April- Well my diet went out the window on Saturday and I went on a major binge. I was burgled and they even got my HRM so I have to guestimate the cals burned.
