I'm sorry if this has been asked before, but I guess I'm asking about particular combinations of classes (since I haven't taken all of them yet.)
I just joined a gym. I have a gym in my building, but it obviously doesn't have classes and clearly exercising on my own hasn't been enough motivation. Surprisingly, after years of being terrified of group fitness classes, I've found I LOVE them. I want to go every day.
Unfortunately, between work and part-time grad school, I have limited days that I can actually go. I've managed to make it 3-4 days a week, usually 3.
This Saturday, I was planning to take back to back BodyCombat (my FAVORITE class) and BodyFlow after, since it's not very taxing.
Sunday, I was thinking about going to BodyPump before meeting up with a friend for Piloxing right after. I'm not sure how hard Piloxing is...so is this too much? I've only managed to go to a Yoga class during the week, BodyCombat and BodyFlow on Sundays, so I'm trying to increase the amount of actual cardio versus yoga-type classes, although I've lost some weight with this routine alone.
What do you all think? More cardio? Doubling-up is ok? Too bad I can't get myself to wake up at 5:00 for the 6am classes every morning....

It's basically all about how you feel. There's no harm in trying to do the back to back classes and leaving the 2nd class halfway if you feel spent.0
