I also throw in an occasional water aerobics class. I also row twice a week for a quick calorie burn and use some of the cardio balcony machines for a change-up. Bad knees have stopped me from jogging much, so I often wear a weighted vest (with 20 pounds) while I walk.
The problem I complained about here was not from anything my trainers told me to do. It came from overconfidence in my knees ability to absorb the impact of jumping jacks. I now know NEVER to leave the floor for my exercise.



Week 3 weigh-in Green team ended up in third place. Our biggest loser from last week lost only .3 of a pound this week and one person gained weight.
But I see my team members trying hard. My knees are back to normal now (slightly tender). Yesterday I got up early and did a basic training aerobic class with lots of power walking, light jogging, and weights. Today was my day of rest for the week.

Sounds like you have it all figured out. What are some of the reasons you believe have caused you to put on too much weight?-since you said you were working out before(if you don't mind sharing?). Do they use BMI?

What do you enjoy the most?
