And so it begins!
Well, It has been a week so far and I think I am doing very good. My husband and I bought an eliptical machine yesterday and I tried it out yesterday. I could barely make it for 2 minutes. I use to go to the gym but it has been about a year since I couldn’t afford the monthly payments anymore. I was working out at least 3-4 times a week for about an house a time back then. I could do the eliptical machine for about 20 minutes back then. But the machine at the gym was much more expensive than the one we bought on sale for $150. I just need to work back into it. I just used the machine for like 5 minutes a few minutes ago. That really got my heart rate up there and all that stuff. I figure even if I can do five minutes 2x’s a day for 7 days a week that is a start. Eventually I should be able to do more time on the machine. And once the weather is better I think that I will go walking outside.
Well that is all I have to say for now.
You’ll get better at it. It takes time. Good luck! Congrats on starting the exercise.
Congrats on getting an elliptical. If it is anything like Tony Little’s Gazelle, congrats on doing 2 minutes on it! When I got a gazelle 5 years ago I did good to stay on a minute and that was when I weighed 30 pounds less than I weigh now. I have been thinking of getting it back out though.
