I like to go to the gym with a plan, a good weight workout and my normal cardio session but in 2011 I want to push a little harder and try new things. I want to try to take advantage of all the amenities that my gym has to offer, classes, a pool, hot tub and yoga.
With having a day off yesterday I figured it was a good time to get my new routine going. I am starting the Bikini Body program from the Women’s Health Big Book of Exercises, with a cardio session and the weight workout I should be able to do a workout in about a hour. That works for me! Having a program laid out for a few months should keep things interesting and have me doing different exercises than just my normal squats, lunges, bench press.
With the weight I lost over the last few months I have lost quite a bit of muscle and need to take the time to build it back up. Thankfully it has only been a few months and it should come back on.
2011 Workout Goals
3-4 times a week, including a yoga session
Get back to pre October weight (this means gaining a few pounds)
Attend 1 class a month
Swim once a month (this is a big stretch for me, I haven’t swam for a workout in over 10 years)
Any goals you are working towards?

I have only been getting to the gym twice a week for the last few months. I have absolutely no exercise, just too lazy to go. My new plan is to go 3 times per week in January and then up it to 4 times per week starting in February. I also plan to exercise everyday during my vacation in January.

My dad is OBSESSED with the Men’s version of that book!
Last year my goal was to do 1-2 hours/week of yoga and I’m at about 3.5-4 right now…I’d like it to be 5 hours/week this year!

Great goals! My goal is to get back into the weight room 3 times a week. I cut back when marathon training took so much of my time, but that was September and I just never got back into my routine. I also want to try weekly spin class as cross-training.

That sounds like some great fitness goals. I always love going into the gym with a “plan.”
I don’t know if I have any fitness goals right now. I have really been enjoying the classes at my gym lately. I love swimming for a workout! For me, it is as relaxing and meditating as yoga.

I’m still trying to put mine together for 2011 but they’ll include getting back into the weight room too! I’m trying to figure out which relatively easy program to start with, so if you have any suggestions, let me know!
