Thanks Weecrack. I appreciate your reply.
Ok, I went and signed up on that fit website that everyone talks about here. Can't recall the name - but I put in all my measurements and it came back with 31% body fat and something like 2400 cals total for my normal exercise day (prior to weight training). So I minused 500 cal for weightloss and just went for 1800 as its an easy number. I am tall so maybe thats why I got a high cal allowance.
So I definitely will be going low carb and high protein in my diet and I can probably figure that one out no worries. I have been reading about the diets of the girls who do the 12 week body challenge here in Australia and I'll piece something together from their diets.
Training I split over two days. Do back, abs, legs on day 1 and chest, shoulders, bicepts, tricepts. 3 sets trying to get 12-15 reps on each. 30 second rest between sets. I do this four times per week. Mon, Tues, Thurs, Fri. Wednesday is pure cardio. On each weight training day I do 30mins of cardio but have been told to not go above 60% of my max heart rate.
One question I have is that I have my own gym at home which my hubbie uses. He likes me to train with him but he does heavy weights to bulk and my program is lighter but high reps. I will be triaining at lunchtimes but is it ok to do more weights in the evening with hubbie or should I just stick to my workouts and do no more?
