I bought weights about two months ago, but have still only been running and jump roping. I have always wanted sexy toned arms…if I start now, maybe I can make some progress before it’s tank top season again!

I was doing my own circuit training at home (weights, stationary bike, gazelle, and stability ball) every 3 to 4 days! Gave up about a week ago, but found this site and am getting back to my routine right now!

I started lifting in combination with my cardio last week and was doing reps of less than 10 with a lot of weight. I found that using moderate weights but making sure I did reps of at least 14 counts made me feel much more powerful and contributed to toning, not just bulking up. It’s nice to see visible arm definition again!

I am doing strength training twice a week along with other activities. I have just added a pound to the weight I have been using. Adding on slowly….do not want an injury. Also..have added weights into my yoga routines. I am using 2 lb. weights, but I was surprise how much it adds to my yoga workout.

I run a LOT but have plateaued with my progress in firming up. Strength training needs to become more of a priority for me to break through the plateau.

I’m going to go start right now!

i just started using weights today. GOOD LUCK to me and everyone who is trying to better themselves

i walk for about 45 minutes to an hour each night, need to start useing my weights. Hope this challenge works for me

A few months ago we stayed with a daughter for a few months while waiting for our new house to be finished. During that time I stopped lifting weights. This challenge is just what I need to get back to my routine!

I started a second round of P90x this week and my goal is to double the weight lifted for each exercise in the next 90 days.

I increased weights today. I feel sore but it will be worth it.
