Hi Guys

I have just really started to get fit. But I was wondering if I am doing to much to start with. My average week is swimming on monday, gym on tuesday, karate wednesday, gym on thursday, rest friday, gym saturday and depending on the weather on sunday either rest or a bike ride. Is this to much to start with or should i just stick it out.

Regards

Orion

Doesn't sound like too much, though you will always be the best judge of this. If you can do each of these workouts on a consistent basis feeling strong and enthusiastic, then you'll be fine.

However, it's always a good idea to first determine for yourself what your specific training goals are, and then see whether the workouts you are doing are most appropriate to help you meet those goals.

With respect,

Thanks Sohan, im feeling a bit under the weather and lots of people have been thinking its to do with my training, me i just think its something going round.

The only thing that doesn't help towards my goal is the swimming but I do that with my partner so i'm happy to keep that up.

I think the swimming is a great idea, and is one of the best exercises that you can do.

It sounds like you have a good schedule going, so I would stick with it.

Hey, as long as you're not hurting yourself, there's nothing wrong with the schedule. Be careful though, it is easy for some people to burn out if you go from zero to all out every day but as far as I'm concerned, it's good for you.

Well i've just had a week of feeling really bad, think I got to the burnt out stage with lack of sleep and a bit of a cold as well. I still managed to go swimming on Monday and to the gym yesterday, think I'll take it slow and make sure I get plenty of sleep.
