Gonna exercise again, but I'm rusty

On Saturday, 12/22 I went for a long walk on the treadmill and a good jaunt on my elliptical machine.  That night I had too many adult-beverages, and decided to take the rest of they year off from exercise.  So, I did.  And on 01/01 I hopped back on the treadmill and elliptical machine.  That night, I got sick.  So, again, a week lay-off.

Today, I'm starting again.  I can feel the rust, but I am excited to do it again.

Look out world!

I too have replaced exercise with drinking starting the week of Christmas...so I feel ya on the RUSTINESS. Im challenging myself to 45 mins on the treadmill non-stop....

I'd see that challenge and raise you 5.  50 minutes is my goal for the day.

Ooh I love a little friendly competiton...Ill be up to an hour by friday...guaranteed

I will be if you combine all my exercises.  But not an hour just on the treadmill.  I got a schedule I layed out last October to follow. Good luck!

hey i feel you on feeling rusty i just went back to the gym last week from being away for 2 weeks and i was feeling it...lol...i'll be at the gym when i get out work i usually do 20 min on the tredmil, 20 min on the eliptical and 20 on the bike...i really like variety...good luck on going back.

Thanks.  And good luck to you, too!

I know the feeling....towards the end of last semester exercise just kinda faded from my schedule....that's no good.  So, I started up again yesterday....started off small though....15 mins on treadmill and 25 mins of weight lifting in arms and legs....today I will up the treadmill but not the weights b/c I still wanna be able to walk LOL

I just know if I get started back w/ my exercise that the rest of my weight will melt like butter...at least that's what I'm daydreaming will happen :-D

Anywho...good luck to ya and keep us posted!!

Nothing wrong with baby steps!

definitely not...especially when those small baby steps STILL have my muscles aching lol
