Cardio Options

[pebkac]

Well, I joined a gym and started a workout program. Thus, I now ache in muscles that I didn't even know I had.

Now, here's the thing. The trainer didn't tell me how much cardio I should be doing, but rather showed me how to do the exercises (not like they're that hard). He said to find out exactly how much I should be doing, I'd have to spend $120 on a nutritionist. As 1) I don't have that and 2) that sounds like a lot to be spending anyway, I decided against it.

Would anyone be able to give me at least a roundabout estimate of how much cardio I should be doing?

run what you are comfortable with
that goes for pace and distance

dont run every day to begin with. its especially important with running not to jump right into the thick of things

i dont know your fitness level but if the thought of running 1 mile is dauting run whatever at the pace that is cool, walk dont stop till you are ready to go again till you reach that mile. from that point on work on running the entire mile without stopping.

find the medium. push yourself but dont exert yourself. you aint training for a marathon - hopefully. if you are come pace with me

what gym?


(thats all if the cardio you are doing is running. i dont do all that gay eliptical shit)

and stretch goddamnit!
