| Would walking be able to consider exercise? Posted: 06 Mar 2021 12:23 AM PST I weigh 315lbs. I'm looking for a low intensity workout that isn't super tough on my joints and doesn't completely drain me. Walking has been working great for me. I usually walk and hour and a half to two hours before im pretty worn and sore. Could I consider this a workout? [link] [comments] |

| Broomstick twist is too easy. What am I likely doing wrong? Posted: 06 Mar 2021 02:13 AM PST I use a hockey stick to put behind my back, lean back a bit, and rotate my core mainly. What I've learned is that if it seems too easy, you're probably not gaining anything. I do 30 twists usually and it doesn't hurt (not fit at all). How many reps do you recommend doing and any tips on what I'm probably doing wrong? [link] [comments] |
| Depressing start to strength workouts Posted: 06 Mar 2021 02:10 AM PST To start off with, I should say that my cardio fitness level is quite good already. I've been running half marathons and have been doing long-distance cycling for the better part of two years now. In order to get some muscle on my frame, I've been meaning to start incorporating some strength training for a while now. I figured that today was as good a day as any to start, so I looked up a beginner strength routine for biceps/triceps that looked doable. The workout I found was a good mix of exercises to train both. The workout clearly said that I should start light, focussing on form while doing 4 sets of 15 reps of each of the exercises with 90 seconds of recuperation time in between. The first exercise went fine, with good form, but I started noticing that the later exercises I was having trouble completing the sets, even after reducing the amount of weight on the dumbbels. It was so depressing, that I didn't even finish the workout. Is this to be expected when starting out or am I just doing it wrong? [link] [comments] |
