1. Dont do it unless your main goal is weight loss

2. Dont make it just another New Years Resolution unless you always stick to them

....sounds like the typical Black Females approach to getting in shape

First time back in the gym yesterday after more than 8 months

workout last night consisted of...
15 minutes on elliptical and 10 minutes on stair master ( death

)
chest workouts at 3 different stations

Can anyone recommend a solid workout plan? I'm looking to cut massive weight. I'm currently at 265 (6'0") when I used to be 175 sheesh.

THANKS

Check out Starting Strength by Mark Rippetoe. I'm not sure how well it would work for you as you're trying to cut, but I've used it and gotten much stronger and many other people have as well.

If you're looking for a cardio plan, look into HIIT. Saves time and gives you an intense workout.

I was just thinking about this. Weighing the pros and cons of new people showing up at the gym, Im thinking Ill take it. Just gotta keep showing up early in the day before the dumbbells are strewn across the floor and the plates are rearranged in the most illogical ways possible

My gym is switching to 24/7 starting January 2nd.

I wonder how many times I/people are actually going to go in the wee hours of the morning.

My gym parking lot was full this morning at 930...dreading th new year.


Luckily most of the people were there for cardio and I was just hooping and lifting

Worst time of the year. Parking gets real tough. Damn resolutioners. Hopefully it lasts  ~1 month until they fall off.
You're in SF right? What gym do you hit up?

This. Had the squat rack to myself for 45 minutes 

Glad I don't ride the bikes

When I go after work, I go to the one on Montgomery and Sutter. Or sometimes the one in Daly City.
