Hi Brandi from right across the river!
I got myself a personal trainer for Christmas, and the best thing I got from him was exercises I can do at home as "bonus" stuff. Really helps me fight off the late-night snack cravings. My favorite - Snow Angels - lie on your back, keeping the small of your back close to the ground (keep your tummy tight). Touch your right toe with your left hand, picking your shoulder up off the floor. Same with the other side.
I do 45 minutes of cardio 4 times a week, mixed between the elliptical and the treadmill. I don't want to spend all day at the gym, so I up the resistance/incline/speed to keep it challenging. I do a few weights on my own to fill up the rest of the hour, then on trainer day, he tries to kill me.
Welcome to the site!! We're glad to have you, and I'd be happy to buddy up if you're interested.
