Question:

Hi, i am looking a little help. i have put on weight from i got married and am now looking to shift it but looking advice on a fitness regime.
I have a treadmill, a cross trainer, a stepper and a step (like for step aerobics) and kettle bells with a dvd of 5 seperate 10 minute workouts on it.
I intend have a healthy breakfast, lunch and dinner and snacking only on fruit.  I also am going to walk home from work everyday instead of taking a lift. this will be a 30 min walk.
Could you suggest a regime using the equipment i have to help me shed 2 stone in hopefully 2.5 months.
thanks – much appreciated

Answer:

Hi,

that will be an easy task for you – you have more equipment at home than most other people ;-) Your food plannings sound good – also that you are planning to walk home. It makes up a lot if you insert more movement into your life. Train regularly, 2-5 times per week, and keep an overall good diet and training regimen up for at leas 6-8 weeks.

Now about your additional training: kettle bells are good for a functional training, especially intervall training. you might combine it with interval cardio training on your cross trainer, stepper or aerobic step. Check the dvd`s for exact movment description. Additionally, you should add stability and flexibility exercises, as known from Pilates or Yoga, into your routine.

You could proceed like this:

Treadmill easy intensity, 10 min

kettlebell light whole body movements, e.g. dead lift and standing row (please check the dvd you have mentioned for exercise descriptions, they may vary), controlled movement, 20 repetitions controlled manner

step up on aerobic stepper 2 minutes, medium intensity

kettlebell lunges arm curls, controlled movement

stepper 2 minutes, high intensity

push ups 10 – 20 repetition, controlled movement

treadmill 10 minutes, easy to medium intensity

I recommend to get 1-2 additional training books or dvd about pilates and yoga.

Hope it helps! Good training!
