Today I start back at the gym-- How about you?

It takes me about an 1.5-1.75 hrs to complete my workout. Here’s how I start. I do 45 min on stationary bike so I can loosen up and get my heart rate up. From there I do on machines plus on the floor around 15 minutes of stomach exercises. Then from there I do 30-40 minutes of weight lifting and all at a fast pace with maybe at most 30 seconds between sets. Then when done I go to the shake bar in Golds gym and I order a fat burner/protien shake to replace my lunch.

How does that workout look Ralph? Anything you can suggest for me to do differently?

That’s sounds good to me. I walk to the gym(1 mile) and get right to it. Top it off with 30-45 minutes on the treadmill or elliptical. My knees won’t take a stationary. Funny I can use a regular bike but a stationary bothers me.

It’s funny how the knees react to some of these things. I love running but since tearing up both knees the last 3 yrs the elliptical machine now hurts my knees. The low to the ground stationary bike works for me now. I notice alot of old fogies use this type of machine like I do lol.

I just started on the Total Gym after Christmas. I really like it because it’s low impact on my knees/joints. I needed to get strength and flexibility back.
