I'll admit I've become quite a gym rat. My current schedule is
Monday - Spin or Step (45 min class) I rotate every other week
Tuesday - Sculpting class (45 min) & Zumba (60 min)
Wednesday - Personal Trainer (60 min)
Thursday - Sculpting class (45 min) & Zumba (60 min)
Friday - day off (but I am taking a beginning tap dancing class)
Saturday - Either spin, Zumba, or Step or Personal Training
Sunday - Zumba
I just started the 2 days of personal training recently, so I am still trying to figure out how to squeeze them in. I am taking them from the same instructor that teaches all the classes I take, so we both are trying to squeeze them in between the classes. Since I have started them, I am also making myself take another day off and will just rotate the day based on what is going on in the week.
I will admit joining the Y and meeting this instructor/personal trainer has really been the reason for my success so far. She pushed me to try other classes outside of Zumba & the personal training. I also made some great friends so these classes double as my social hour.
However, a hard lesson I am learning now is even with all this exercise you CANNOT exercise off your weight. Believe me, I've tried. Unfortunately, diet is the key ingredient. Luckily, the exercise kept me from gaining any weight this summer with all the vacations and what not going on, but I will not lose if I don't keep my diet in check.
