Congratulations - you are awesome!!! Your dedication and hard work shows!do yourself a huge favor and start weight training now.....you will thank yourself later ;-)
I was actually thinking about starting early. For some reason weight training terrifies me as cardio is my "comfort" zone and what I love. I am not sure I will even know where to begin!
I agree - don't wait to start lifting, just add it in now! I wish I would have started sooner! There are lots of great beginner programs that have great explanations/pics and online videos to help you - if you work out at a gym, a trainer or someone can also help you with form and figure out how things work. Nia Shanks or the New Rules of Lifting books are a great place to start - I started with the New Rules of Lifting for Women and found their facebook community (2 groups there, both great) - lots of awesome, heavy lifting women with tons of motivational stories and support and advice!
I was doing only cardio for a long time and then plateaued. Lifting only 2-3 times a week and doing cardio on my off days, did way more for body composition and my booty than cardio ever did!!!! We are stronger then we think we are :happy:
Add me if you have any questions :bigsmile: You rock, chica!!!

Morning Mallierose,
Thanx for your response
I knew U were much younger than me, from your pics.
I wish I could run, but walking will have to do 4 me right now. My husband has been a runner for a long time & I always envied that ability. :grumble:
I'll have to check out the '30 day shred diet' U mentioned along w/the calorie counting I'm doin' on here. It has really opened my eyes to the intake of fats & sugar in the foods I eat.
Wish U well on your running goal :flowerforyou:
Walking can be just as affective and also be a lot less stress to the joints and knees! Do what makes you feel comfortable and gets you to where you want to be. I have never done the 30 Day Shred diet, just the workout along with eating healthy so I do not have much advice to give there.0 -
Well done! You look great :flowerforyou:0
