Red face routine??

I've just joined a gym and really need a routine to help me to get fit. I'm not looking to lose weight, just to keep in shape. Any suggestions?

Hi Evy

I started the gym a few months ago and one of the trainers there set a plan for me, you should ask them to help as they'll be best to judge your current fitness level and work out what you can do.

The basic one I started on was:

20 mins on bicycle (resistance and time increased by 5mins every 4 wks)
10 mins on cross trainer (length of time increased by 5mins every 4 wks)
3 sets of 10 reps on all weights (starting at 10kgs and working up as i got stronger)
15 mins on treadmill (treadmill was programmed so it was like going up-hill, started walking fast first then eased into running and increased time by 5mins every 4 wks)
5 sets of 10 sit-ups using fitness ball

You don't need to do everything on the list in the same workout, chop and change to get some variety and maybe add in some classes once or twice a week.

Hope that helped you, take care and good luck!
