Help Needed!

FS717

I've started going to the gym on January 1st, 2017 & I'm still committed to the lifestyle and I'm very thankful I've made that decision. I'm trying to loose weight on the long run as time is not an issue since I have too many kilos to to loose.

My height is 186cm & my starting weight was 134kg and I'm now 128kg. the last time I went to the gym before that was more than a year ago. So yes, eventually I gained a lot.

My question is regarding my workout & I need your help figuring out the best routine to follow.

Here's what I've done so far:-

Week 1: Treadmill (30 mins) fast pace walking and running for 2 mins every now & then + Elliptical (15 mins) + Bike (15 mins).

Week 2: Elliptical (3 sets of 10 mins) + fast pace walking (treadmill 25 mins)

Week 3-4-5: Elliptical (40 mins) running.

Week 6 (Sunday): Elliptical (25 mins) running + rowing machine (15 mins)

**All the above do not include weights.


Although it is a good thing that I'm improving, I no longer enjoy them as they are starting to get really boring. plus, I hear a lot of people saying that doing only cardio does more harm than good.

I know it may sound silly asking this, but I would appreciate your input on the best routine to follow.
Please let me know of any additional information needed.

Thanks.

Doing all cardio doesn't 'harm' you. But adding in some strength/resistance training would be beneficial.

Look up C25K to give you some structured cardio if you like running and ask a PT at your gym to show you the weights.
