I’m doing exercises with weights 3 times a week. On M-W-F, I do one 3-minute session with Denise Austin online, and then two or three more short sessions during the day. I started out with 5-pound weights, then learned the obvious lesson that I should have started with lighter ones. I’m now using 3-lb weights. My arms tired VERY quickly, so my sessions are short, but I do multiple sessions, trying to making up for my pathetic-ness.
I’ve been doing this for 3 weeks now and am beginning to feel a difference. I’m beginning to have an easier time with the sessions. I am rebounding faster between sessions. I am now doing a session, then doing something else, then coming back and doing another doing exercises different than the ones online, over and over during the weight days. My arms are SO bad that it may never be that others notice any difference. I don’t care. I am feeling a bit stronger, so it feels as if my time is well spent.
Combined with my elliptical trainer on T-Th-S and my yoga stretches daily, I feel I’m doing a good thing for myself.
