I joined a gym so I can go to the classes they offer as part of the membership. In the past two months I have a crazy work schedule & it's impossible for me to go to these classes. Since they open late I was thinking about using the elliptical trainer or run on the treadmill.
My question-
1) The elliptical trainer- do I just hop on, put my hands/feet in place & start? I've never used one...
2) All my life I've been walking a few miles a day or doing aerobics at home with video tapes/DVDs to keep in shape. I've heard weight comes off faster when you run. Any tips for beginners?
I'm one of the bridesmaid to my best friend's wedding at the end of Oct so at the very least I can't gain any weight. With a sensible diet plus running 20-30 min. 5 days/week will that be enough to maintain my current weight?
