Shannon.. I am so happy your had a great 1st day doing your workout! I am also happy your tired and sore for training your butt off today.. It should help you with your sleeping at night. Although I was happy you did everything on your workout schedule on your first day, it was meant to be broken up in to doing your Total Gym weight workout, and your weighted hula hoop for abs, and cardio.. That would be one day, then do your running a separate day along with you weighted hula hoop workout. Since you are just starting back to working out after a long lay off it might be too much to do all in one day...
If you can do one day your Total Gym workout, and hula hoop, and the next day do your running, and your hula hoop workout..Then take a rest day.. Then repeat! If you can do 4x a week, 2 of each workout a week, that would be a great start. Then after three or so weeks as you get in to better shape we can change it all around. This way your body doesn't adapt to the same exercises, and routine. We can add more exercises to your Total Gym workout, and change your running workout.. add some new exercises etc.. This way your body doesn't adapt and show less progress, and you don't become bored and possible quit or feel the workouts are not changing your body as you hoped.
The goal is to keep your body guessing and never let it get used to any workout for too long..Keeping it fresh & fun for you and your body! Seeing progress and changes in your body will keep you motivated to keep up with your training schedule. Remember consistency is key... Doing more isn't necessarily better, it's what you do in the time you have and be consistent with your weekly workouts. If you can put aside 45-60 minuets to train on your workout days and commit to that regularly... You will see yourself and your body be the best it can be!
Train hard & Rock that Body !
