Hi Cathe,
What are flat muscles?
You have mentioned them a couple of times in posts. Especially if you work too much cardio. How much is too much cardio?
Even though I've been exercising with you for many years I still get confused.
I'm 56 years old and my workouts these days look like this: Of course it does change regularly.
Mon. GSC&T, 30 min on the treadmill in the evening
Tues. Kickmax
Wed. GSL
Thus. GSBS&B, 30 min on treadmill in the evening
Fri. LM
Sat. Circuit Training one week and Endurance the next
Sun. Light cardio or step or rest, depends on how I feel
I take a few days off every so often when I feel the signs of over training and start again when I regain my spirits.
I love to (eat) healthy foods (zigzag 1200-1400 calories; at 56 any more than this I will forever gain weight) so I use cardio to compensate for the extra calories. Although I do have muscles, you can't see them through the skin. Is that what you call flat muscles and work too much cardio or am I just eating too much?
Thank you Cathe, you have in deed been a friend to me in fitness,
Janie
The idea is to die young as late as possible
