Hi guys,
I'm a first time poster and really a novice. I want to get my ass in gear and start some proper training.
I've started up with my fitness pal to watch my diet and I'm really finding it great but I want to start adding to it with exercise.
I'm a full time worker and mum so my time is limited in that I can't do much until 8pm when the kids are in bed, my husband works a lot of evenings so I'm limited to working out at home.
I walk as much as I can during my lunch break, for 30 mins but I want to add some weight training to this. Again, something I can do at home.
has anyone any routines I could copy? I'm only 9 stone, 5 foot 7 but could with a lot of toning up!
thanks😊

Have a look at Body by You: http://www.amazon.com/Body-You-Guide-Womens-Fitness/dp/0345528972

It's a progressive bodyweight exercise program you do in your house, no special equipment required.
It takes 20 minutes, 3 times a week. I've been doing it since July 2013 and I love it, it's great. I lost a lot of weight through overhauling my diet, and running, but Body By You has given me good strength and a nice shape.

I like it because it's so doable - anyone has 20 minutes, 3 times a week, to do something that matters to them.

Read the first few pages on Amazon Look Inside! and see what you think of it.

I do an altered version of convict conditioning at home that I really enjoy. I've changed the core work but follow the basic structure of the set up. If you google it you should be able to find out about it.

This can also be helpful for a bit of variety

Do you have sky tv? If so, ch254 FAB TV.

I started by recording loads of different ones, found out some were infomercials but have Caroline Pearce, Bob Harper, Do More Pilates and Ladan's legs bums n tums and body sculpting saved.

There's a good beginners bodyweight routine here too with videos of each exercise. I started there, and I'm onto the intermediate for the last few months and find it great.

I really do not know these product will work or not. I would like to say just start doing gym and get help from good physician.
