great idea for non-wasting time workout..simple but brilliant..thx guys

Weight training is cenltiray a good thing to incorporate into your regime to get over a weight loss plateau. I would suggest that you meet with a trainer for a weight program specific to your goals, especially if you haven't done any weight training. Ideally you should bring the trainer into your home so he/she can see your new equipment. If meeting with a trainer is out of the question, I suggest you read up on proper form before you start. You can do more damage than good if you don't use the proper technique. Especially if you're using free weights (i.e. dumbells). The easiest way to start a weight lifting program is to use machines designed to force the proper form (such as Hammerstrength and Nautillus).Assuming you know the proper form and function based on your new equipment, you should shape your routine around your goals. If weight loss is your primary goal then you're going to want to incorporate light weights and a high number of repetitions (or reps ). For example, if you're doing squats, you should set up a light weight (which varies by sex, fit level and other factors) and do three sets of fifteen to twenty reps. You should feel weak but you should not go to the point of muscle failure. The only other recommendation I have for you is to try pilates or yoga as well. I have a friend who hit a weight loss plateau and then lost an additional 30 lbs by incorporating pilates into her workout. It is very low impact but surprisingly difficult. Good luck!
