My Routine

I have had a lot of people ask me about my gym routine. So, I thought I'd share. The personal trainer at my gym set this routine up for me. I told him my goals were to lose weight but to also become toned and strong. I want to be able to run and lift heavy. The routine he set up takes around an hour. I usually go for around two because I add in free weights, lifting, and stretching. On a side note, this routine is great for all different fitness levels as you can pick your speeds and weights to fit your needs. My Mom does the same routine when she comes. She just goes slower on cardio and lighter on the weights. Also, I am not a fitness expert or a Doctor. So please consult yours before starting.
