Hi!! This is my first post on Lemon8!! I’m Ari and I lost 28lbs naturally from diet and exercise this year :) Here’s my workout routine pls let me know if you’re interested in recipes or food swaps or anything else!! Just a note: I started out way lighter than this, i only started lifting this heavy recently and progressively worked my way up! Earlier this year I could hardly walk at 2.5 speed or lift heavier than 40lbs. If you want to use this routine but you’re just starting, pls start light and comfortable!! It takes time <3

... Read moreCardiovascular fitness is essential for overall health, and combining it with strength training can maximize results. This routine features 30 minutes of treadmill work, focusing on different inclines and speeds to enhance endurance. For core training, incorporating planks and various crunches can help strengthen your abdominal muscles, improving posture and stability. Engaging in these exercises twice a week can boost your results significantly. Moreover, arm workouts using 10lb dumbbells target the biceps and triceps, crucial for building upper body strength. By progressively increasing weights, you can continually challenge your muscles and prevent plateaus. Emphasizing a combination of cardio, core, and arms not only aids in weight loss but also improves physical performance and functional strength. Always remember to warm up properly and finish with stretches to avoid injuries and enhance recovery. Interested readers are encouraged to adapt this routine at their own pace and explore additional nutrition tips for a more comprehensive fitness journey.
