Question
I have just started to excercise, and I need a little advice about what to do. Today I walked 3 miles on the treadmill(35-55min), then did weight excercise. My plays professional basketball and he told me that I should only walk 15-20min on the treadmill and the exercise. I figured he knows what he's talking about since he works out everyday. Is he correct. Should I only spend 15-20min on the TM. I am trying to lose weight fast. Around 45lbs in 7 months. What do you recommend that I do. I do not want to take any pills. I go to the gym everyday.
Answer
You are doing a great job. Just add some intensity to the workout. Try the heart rate monitors. They are fun and give you some added determination. You can purchase a monitor at the web store, www.desktopfitness.net
