Happy New You!!!

Apologies for the silence, been studying for a new certification in my craft. OK, how you doing with your consistency.By now you should have 6-10 appearances at your fitness facility. Cardio should be done for at least 20 minutes daily with your heart rate at approximately at 60-70% of your maximum heart rate. That would be 220 minus your age multiplied by .60,.65, or .70. Example if you are age 40...220-40=180, 180 x .60 = 108. 108 would be 60% percent of your maximum heart rate. Your maximum heart rate would be 180. Any questions? Please feel free to ask....Now resistance (or weight) training for strength and muscle development. Exercises should include using the legs (the butt and thighs) and back and chest. These are the major muscle groups and exercise should be done 2-3 times a week. To start lets do one exercise per muscle group and each exercise should be done 3 times for 12 - 15 reps. If you need any assistance feel free to ask any personal trainer available..thats their job(at no expense to you). These guidelines are for novices and we will gradually increase. Remember exercise is where you make it..walking the stairs at work, speed walking with your dog, or squats in your office. Continue to eat right and be the best you that you can be.....Live In Love
