Open Question: Working out/cardio question?
Okay, here is is. I’m 19 years old, I never really had any significant weight problems. I never in my life surpassed 220 pounds of fat or muscle. So it’s not really an obesity thing. What I’m interested in is more of a toning thing. I don’t really want buldging muscles or any of that, just toned, average sized muscles.
I am going to work out today and from now on every day. I plan to run on my treadmill and follow the workout regimen for my bowflex resistance workout machine.
I never had truly amazing muscles, abs, or pecks, really I never even had them. I played soccer and football in my teens, when I was 10-16 years old on competitive teams. I was usually just toned, no real muscles, I weighed at one point about 200 pounds at 15 when I played football, I wasn’t fat though so I have no idea where the extra weight was. Anyways, since I have been away from them for a couple years, I haven’t really been to active. I’m wondering, how long will it take to get defined pecks, abs, and other muscles and lose a few pounds on my butt. I don’t want to be a miracle body builder, just an average build so I won’t be embarrassed to take my shirt off in the summer or go swimming. Got any tips? I’m going to start today and from now on, just want some tips before I start. Thanks.
