45 minutes is ideal, really. I'm pretty sure it's counterproductive to spend any longer than that working your muscles out.
I don't even do as much cardio as I used to. 15-20 minutes around the track before every workout. I'm in and out of the gym in under an hour.
Also, I love rollerblading. The waterfront in my city has an awesome bike/walking path. Love love love it!! |

yea i'm excited. last time he tried to get motivated to work out with me so we joined the gym...he didn't go. now he wants to try the rollerblading and he said he knows how and used to a lot so i'm optimistic he'll stay on board this time with me. it's better when your partner is equally as into getting into shape as you are. it's hard for me to stay motivated if he's not. it's funny how all of a sudden i started going to the gym and he was like, "..oh...you're working out again?" and i was like, "yea might as well, i have the time now" and now he's weight lifting on our weights at home and wants to get rollerblades:stongue: |

I hate people at the gym.
Also, I love doing pushups in front of the cardio bunnies. I have no choice cause that's where the back row machine is and I do supersets...but yeah I have to admit I love showing off in front of those stupid whores. :o |
amen sister. i don't do push ups but those cardio loving chicks bother me. yesterday i saw this woman go through 3 cardio machines near me she did each for like 15min then she left. ri-ing-diculous...she was next to me and using like no resistance at one point. i admit i checked |

Believe me, she was doing it, lol. Her arms were all over the place, and she was using her whole body to lift the weights. It was pretty embarrassing actually. Especially because she looked so proud/satisfied with herself, lololol. |
