    Absolutely, you are getting something out of it. You are moving and exerting energy so I say nice work and keep it up. If you are doing 3 sets of 10 with pretty much no rest I would say use more weight for those sets and you will "feel" that you are getting something out of it. I workout similar to you. I do about 7 lifts in a period of a hour super setting everything. Barely ever stopping to rest. Anyway, moving more and not seating on the couch is alway good.
  • yes well done just remember no matter how hard it gets still doing better then anyone who isnt and after a while of cardio id say try some HIIT its really good helped me shed a stone in like 4 1/2 weeks so well done and keep it up

    Will you be getting something out of it? Sure

    Can you get more out of your time? Sure

    Start using a barbell (free weights) & ditch the machines.
