Hit plateau and need a new routine?

Posted on July 16, 2011 by admin| 5 Comments

I’ve been eating 1400 calories a day and doing 60 minutes on the elliptical machine along with sit ups on a stability ball most days of the week and I have lost 20 pounds since August but the past two months I have not lost any thing. Do I need to cut my calories down to 1200 a day and mix up my work-out? I’m thinking of using my new pilates dvds (25 minute total work out and 18 minute ab work out) every morning and doing the elliptical 4 days a week for 60 minutes… does that sound like enough or do I need more? I have a nutrionist but she never answers her e-mails and with the holidays going on it’s hard to get an appointment in.

what do you think of this workout? personal trainers anyone?

Posted on June 10, 2011 by admin| 2 Comments

Hi, i really want to get tighter abs and back and leg muscles in 2 months time. I have tried on and off but have failed as I didnt keep up to my commitment and diet. But this time, for real I’m gonna try and stick to this routine.
Morning: 1/2 hour of stretching, 15 minutes running, 15 minutes cardio or swimming. Breakfast: egg sandwich.
Lunch: Perogies, Chicken Breasts. Evening: 2 hours of taekwando.
Dinner: Yoghurt, Rice and little meat and veggies. And throw in lot of fruits and a couple of granola bars/peanuts.

Do you think I’ll tire too easily coz i workout in the morning and then taekwondo in the evenings? Does your body really build up if its tired? What are your thoughts on this. Thanks everybody.
yea, i never go hungry, and make sure im always eating food relatively higher in proteins and moderate in carbs. Also, i do taekwondo everyday…its just that i decided if i can pack in an early morning workout, i can get fitter faster and more effectively.

Do pilates help you lose weight or do they just tone your body?

Posted on June 9, 2011 by admin| 2 Comments

I walk/jog or do a cardio workout for 40 -45 minutes 5 times a week. I also do callisthenics with a little bit of light weight training for about 20 minutes 5 times a week. Now, I am wanting to incorporate pilates into my weekly routine. I plan on switching off with callisthenics/weights and pilates every other day. Will pilates help me lose weight or will they just help me tone my body? Also, I am a beginner with pilates, is there anything I need to know before I start? Any advice is greatly appreciated! Thank you!!
