I go to the gym ...working in a group motivates me.
Body Pump - Tues, Thurs, and Sat (Les Mills body pump, It's an hour of weight lifting working all muscle groups. Youtube it if you want to do it at home)
Group Cycle - Thurs and Sat
Jogging Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.0 -

New Rules Girl here!
I had been lifting some before starting New Rules but I still started with Stage 1.
Here is an example of Stage 1:
(I modified two of the exercises because I use my home gym and I don’t have all the equipment.)
(Stage 1) Workout A
Squats
Push-ups
Seated Row (I do bent over row)
Step-Up
Prone Jackknife
(Stage 1) Workout B
Deadlift
Dumbbell shoulder press
Wide grip lat pull down (I do upright row)
Lunge
Swiss ball crunch
Alternate workouts 3 days a week: M-a, W-b, F-a, M-b, W-a, F-b
There is a little more to it than that as far as the reps and sets but it gives you a good example.
I occasionally do some cardio: Zumba (when my SIL can get me to go), or intervals on the treadmill. Good luck!0 -
I don't have access to a gym with weights, so I have been doing the You Are Your Own Gym workout, which uses body weight and common household objects. I'm 5 weeks in and have been very happy with my progress. There is a book, but I now 100% use the iPhone app.0
