New to exercising ...some advice on using a 'glider/strider'
Hi there!
Just come across this website and, wow, found loads of helpful information!
I've just embarked on a new healthy eating plan and for the past four weeks I've been using a glider/strider for exercise. I do 10 minute bursts for 2 or 3 times a day, in combination with the beginners 20 minute session of Joel Harpers workout (the freebie one on the Oprah website). I'm trying to do about 30 to 50 minutes exercise a day. I need to lose approx. 90 pounds.
I would like to ask some of you fitness experts if the glider is a good piece of equipment to exercise with?
I find it useful as I have bad knees and it is low impact...but I concerned that it isn't really pushing me far enough, and really I should be on a treadmill or ellipitical machine.
many thanks
emma
