[quote=Anonymous]30 yo. 10 months pp and want to start working out again. I SAH and my husband is off work for 2 weeks so I figure it's the perfect time to get a jump start. He can watch DD.  When he goes back to work I'll hopefully have the motivation to fit exercise in to my day after making it a habit. We have a gym in our building with some free weights, cardio machines, weight machines, punching bag, yoga/floor space. I don't have time or money for classes or other gyms so I want to make our gym work. After DH goes back to work I'll probably be doing workouts after DD goes to bed, so 8 ish for probably 30-45 min.

My only goals are to lose a little belly fat, tone arms and legs and generally feel better. I'm sure I need to lose weight, but I don't know how much I weigh, we don't have a scale & not too concerned about that right now. I'm still BFing. I just know it'll feel good to sweat and get my heart rate up. Before baby I did yoga once a week, went to a boxing gym a few days a week, which I always really enjoyed - but don't have time for either now. I do walk some with the stroller, but definitely less as it gets really cold.

Any suggestions on where to start? I know it doesn't matter and I should just do anything, but I'd like to go down there with a plan. Any workout plans you can suggest that I can look up/print out?  Should I mix it up during my workout, like run or bike a little, then weights or resistance train or punching bag (I have gloves)? Or one day run, one day weights, etc? I clearly know nothing about exercise haha. I have Kayla Itsines plan in mind but I think I need to work up to it. I did the first day out of the blue a while back and it destroyed my legs.

Thanks in advance and any other info about me that would be helpful just ask![/quote]
