Taking a leap

BeautifulMe322

Now I am sure if I search there are a million topics on weight training, however doing that just makes me feel insanely overwhelmed and confused and makes me want to run straight back to my elliptical. I decided this year would be my year and I have activly set out to make that happen. I have dedicated myself to my gym and am ready to rock. Now that I have turned my commitment into a habit I am ready to incorperate everything. I told myself that Feb 1st I would start on the weights. This is scary for me. I am hear for tips, and guidence. Tell me what your favorite weight training excersices are. What are you favorite machines. What works for you....ready, set, GO! ( Thank you in advance!!! )

I take a Pilates class at the local Y. We don't use the Pilates machines but we use hand weights, resistance bands and our own weight (plank, push up, sit up, etc). You wouldn't realize it, but it's an amazing workout. I was super apprehensize about joining, being so out of shape. But the class is pretty mixed and the instructor explained that pilates was invented for people who were bed ridden. A way to begin... it's only been 2 weeks, but I love it.
