becbec's road to recovery

[jesses]

somehow i ended up going 7 times last week :shock:

sorry for the late reply. Yeah you overdoing it, im training to compete and I only go 4 times. 7 times is too much, for you I would say 3 weights sessions a week and 3 cardio sessions altho one of those sessions should just be light workout. Enough to make you feel warm but shouldnt be dead at the end of it. up to you if you do cardio and weights on same day but make sure cardio is after workout. or first thing in the morning. cant go wrong with that

Yeah, my workouts are never heavy because i'm catious of making my joints swell up.

I do arms twice a week and legs twice a week, cardio the rest and abs whenever i feel like it which is not much

I'm not sure if it'd be easier or harder on your joints, but you could consider upping your reps to like 20 or 30 if you feel your lacking intensity. Great for burning extra cals to. Not saying you need it. :pfft:
