I agree with your doctor, but only after sustaining multiple minor injuries doing 5K a day for a month. My back, hips, knees, feet!! The recovery time alone, 3 months.. gained an extra 11 lbs. it was not worth it. Now I’m ready to try weight loss again, but no hurry. 

Yes, too much too soon can be harmful. I really did a number on my shoulder and forearm when I started lifting heavy weight. I progressed quickly and wore everything out. I am almost back to my heaviest weights from a year ago, but progressing at a more gradual and slower pace. Body much happier with that. 

For beginners, this is according to nasm training structure. You’re suppose to spend 8-12 weeks doing light weights, high reps. It conditions your muscle and your joints and tendons before you go into the hypertrophy phase 

And in that time period your focus should be on form and movement 

Totally agree. I don't know how many times I hurt myself trying to push my workout to the next level and ended up with setbacks.  

Professional athletes work out 6 hours a day, so it’s hard to say. They obviously build up to that level. I would say just work on lowering your calories to get the weight off your joints. At your height you can afford to cut 500 calories a day to get the scale moving. Evening snacking is a diet killer. If it’s in the house, it will be consumed. 

I agree with your doctor.  

I don't agree with the statement because I think it comes down what that excercise is and that you are not pushing yourself towards a possilbe injury or recurrence. However any PT or trainer will tell you that you need to get stronger so Supergainz pretty much outlined that. I am no expert but just know when I have injured my self not at the gym because I have never had an injury there the trainer has always worked around the injury. He doesn't want me to stop but my workout changes. 

completely agree. you cannot go from 0 to 60 and expect your body to tolerate it. a part of getting stronger is building up your exercise regimen day by day. when it comes to running for example, couch to 5k programs incorporate a lot of walking as you build up. once you have a good base, the rule is no more than 10% increase every week. 

Exercise main Goals are for toning,& cardio Health.. Nutrition is king here.. I believe in 70 %Nutrition 10% physical & 20 percent will & Determination .. 

Spring_Peas/Daddy Manatee/Eq19-i totally understand. Had 2 herniated discs plus upper back muscle spasms, knee arthritis, and i just want to get back to competition boxing so bad. This year my youngest turns 4. 4 years of being obese, 4 years of injury after injury which leads to set backs... 4 years of pushing to lose weight. Its never been this hard before but it is now. Its frustrating as hel. 

Supergainz1- thank you, this give me some kinda timeline to follow. After this bout of muscle spasms, and your comment on my past post, i decided to leave my 12# and 15# alone for a while.. sticking to my physical therapy until its too easy and modified upper body but with 5s and 8s instead. 5#/8# dont feel challenging and i think thats why i push. What are your thoughts on calesthenics??(spelling might be off)  

You can replace you guys’ with y’all and life just seems to make sense from here on out. #Texan 

Andrewski123- lmao 🤣 ope my bad #illinoisan I have a friend from texas moved to illANNOY in her late 20s and we all started picking up on her lingo. Like when my kids are actin crazy " have y'all lost your minds?!" She misses texas bad though...  

Actually calisthenics is a great way to start. Push-ups, pull-ups, sit-ups, squats and burpees are the foundational movement. I started out doing calisthenics, I switched to lifting cuz in calisthenics as you get stronger you’ll need to spend more time mastering skills to be able to continue to progressively overload.  

Agree. Build up tolerance. Add stretches/warm ups.  

Redporchlady- you make a very good point! I went from a couple days of Physical Therapy to my old weight lifting routine after 2 months of no exercise!! I didn't really think that thru now did i?? Sounds like you have a great personal trainer!!  

Over training is never a good idea. Your chiropractor is right. 

Focus on a clean diet.
