Hello everyone,
I am really getting into the gym (shock, horror - I know this has never happened to me before... think I may have been abducted by aliens with a strange sense of humour, and they have sent me back with a passion for x-training! )
So, I'm loving (!) an hour a day doing CV work on the exercise bike, cross-trainer and treadmill. I am seeing good changes to my lower half - altho have not done any top end work, or weights as I don't understand the equipment yet - am sneakily peeking at the gym bunnies and trying to get my head around it though!
Do you think this exercise is advisable CDCs? I am also seriously slowing down with weight loss (see below) - is all my fat burning off but my new-found muscle weighing more, do you think? If so, I will have to reach a muscle limit soon, surely, and then start losing on the scales again?
I realise that strenuous exercise on CD is not necesary, but is it actually dangerous/harmful?
I am so enjoying exercise for the first time in years, and I believe that it is a habit I need to keep up because of the family history of heart disease and my high blood pressure since age 30 years and PCOS all my womanly life!
Any thoughts gratefully received!
