FREE Active Summer Beginner Cross-Training Plan --Join Me?



Recommended Posts

Active Trainer is offering this 9 week cross training plan FREE! I got it and I am going to start on Friday July 16th.

As an example here is the first workout:

Today you're going to do as many rounds as you can do for 30 minutes:

  • 2 minute run/walk with a purpose
  • 5 push ups
  • 10 squats
  • 10 sit ups

Then you record how it went, how you feel etc.

Here is the link:

BTW: After you create an account and put the workout in your cart and go to checkout it asks for credit card info just leave that blank and submit and it will give you the workout. :) It will also start the day you get it but you can go to your daily log screen and move it to start a different day.

ANYBODY WANT TO PLAY? :eek:

HOLY CRAP! Now that had to kill some fat cells.

I walked to our local park, then did the 2 min run, 5 push ups (on my knees), 10 squats, 10 sit ups (really more like crunches since I was on the grass) X 10 so a grand total of:

20 min. running

50 push ups

100 squats

100 crunches

Walked for 39 additional min.

Covered 3.73 miles. Plus my husband went with me, we had a blast! :( But I forgot to wear my Body Bugg! :sad:

OK, my thighs are killing me and I gained a pound, so I consider this a successful workout! When I really work my muscles they hold Water for a day or two and then when that Water leaves it usually takes a pound of fat with it. :cool:

Here is what is on tap for tomorrow:

As many rounds as you can do for 30 minutes:

  • 4 minute run/walk with purpose
  • 5 body rows
  • 5 tuck jumps
  • 5 plank holds for :15 seconds
  • 10 squats

BTW:

Body rows are where you lay under a bar that is a few feet off the ground and pull your self up, like a laying down chin up.

Tuck jumps, jump straight up and tuck in your legs.

Plank hold is where you are laying face down on your forearms and your toes and hold your body up straight, no sagging.

Wish me luck. :wink2:

      Hi everyone! I’m brand new here. I just went through all my pre-op requirements per my insurance company and now everything has been submitted and I’m just waiting for final approval and my surgery date. I’ve been doing research, watching YouTube videos, TikTok’s, ect.. trying to prepare my mind and what to expect so I’ll be ready for the surgery. I was so sure and so set and so ready and excited. However, now that I’ve done everything & it’s almost here, I am sooooooo scared! I know why I want it bc I’ve tried everything and I just don’t feel like I can lose weight by myself. I’m tired of being overweight my entire life. I’m miserable, but I keep psyching myself out afraid of GERD bc I know how that can be and I don’t want to have to get a bypass after already gaining the courage to even get VSG. I’m scared of complications like I’mgoing to regret doing it and be depressed that I didn’t just be more disciplined and try again to lose the weight on my own even sitting here typing this knowing in my mind i just can’t and don’t possess the discipline. I’m also afraid I won’t be able to handle the restrictions of the sleeve. What do I eat? I don’t know how to eat healthy really and don’t enjoy healthy food. I don’t know how to do this! I feel so defeated!Someone tell me they felt anything similar to this or am I not ready? I thought I was. I am so tired of being sick and tired and so tired of myself and so tired of being stuck and stuck in this body and somebody different on the outside from what I feel inside. I just want to ball up and cry.
