Thanks all, yes, I guess you can say I am sort of a newbie I am following a program just curious mainly.

So I find that doing lunges and moving my back foot is better than doing them to the front. I kinda liked those! KINDA....LOL

Oh I can't do the bike either, it is so boring to me...I also have trouble with the eliptical..I am a runner and I love it!!

I can do assisted pull ups ;)

The stationary walking lunges are the ones I hate the most!!!....LOL

Yuck, I have a hard time doing them sober, let alone hung over!!

Oh no!! I haven't fall over yet but I do feel like everybody is looking at how awkward I look doing them...lol

Yes, do these too, but not doesn't make me hate them as much as lunges...lol..

I do those too...and yes...I do feel awkward as well

I don't mind burpees, I never new they were called that though, when I was in the Corps we called them 8 count bodybuilders.....lol..

I don't feel so bad now, I feel so incompetent when I am doing a lunge....I especially hate the one leg lunge when you have to do it and return to the upright position. I feel like I will fall over each time!!

I don't do jumping lunges because of my knees, but i know lunges are good I just feel so awkward doing them and so unstable, maybe is a form thing...lol

I say YES! Remember one thing though, ABS are made in the kitchen. You have to watch what you eat because no matter how many crunches you do, if you don't combine it with a healthy diet....the definition might not be seen.

You didn't gain weight over night, don't expect to lose it overnight either One foot in front of the other, gets you there

I would say you are the only one that can answer that question. No matter how much I encourage or try to motivate you, it must come from you. If you are happy where you are and feel content there is not amount of words I can say to make you want to do something. I feel that way sometimes too, I don't want to get up an…

great job! Keep at it!

great job! Keep at it!

\ LOL...just realized I forgot to put "lifting weights"....thanks!

Egg whites, brown rice, veggies....some soy sauce and voila!

Will do..thanks!

Got, no more Smith's machine...thanks!

Okay, thanks! So smith's machine is out of my routine...damn no wonder it seem easier than I though it would be. Thanks for the articles and help...I am very new to weight training (no kidding) so I am learning as I go.

LOL...I use it for proper form..I do use free weights and the bar itself for other excercises

I thought so too but that's what the bar itself says...I should ask the gym owner!

Thanks guys, I feel better now. The bar at my gym on the smith's machine is 72.5......lol

I thought so too, just wanted to make sure! Thanks!

I hate lunges, but love squats. I think I hate them because they really raise my heart and I don'k know why they seem so hard. YOu can try to do them with the smiths machine if you go to the gym. I find it keeps my form better and I do them in front of the mirror so I keep my form. I agree, form is the most important thing.

Well, I find motivation is my goals...where I want to be at so and so time so that keeps me going...plus taking progress pics work to keep you motivated...when you don't feel like exercising just make sure you are making good food choices

Thanks!

thank you! I think I will!
