| Fitness Fitness:
My main goal for fitness is a two-part idea. I'd like to either continue losing weight, but mostly I'd like to begin to sculpt my body. I'm not talking ripped abs and bulging biceps. I'm going more for the lighter side of things. Just some mild muscles showing when I have my shirt off would be great. I suppose that means that my main focus is upper body, arms and chest and abs.
I'm also wanting to make sure I'm working out for health. Cardio is important to me because if I'm doing all of this I want to be HEALTHY!
Now for the not-so-positive stuff!
I smoke, and I'm slowly, slowly quitting, but we'll see how that goes, and I also haven't been working out for the last week and a half now.
I AM, however, taking a Physical Education class this semester which meets for 1 hour, twice a week starting next Tuesday. The class is a mix between resistance training, aerobic training, yoga, and water exercise for a "total fitness experience." We will learn the principles of exercise and apply them as we develop an exercise program which meets our personal goals.
I'm thinking it sounds fun and will be really great for me. We have a gym on campus, and I'm considering using this class at 2 of my workouts, and adding another work out on Fridays. This would mean working out 3 times a week, Tuesday, Wednesday, and Friday.
Other than that I don't have much in the line of ideas. Does anyone have suggestions on things to focus on for my goals of continued weight loss and beginning sculpting?
