Frequently Asked Questions How many pounds should I use?  *If your goal is to lose weight, than you want to use a moderate weight. When you are choosing a dumbell, just pick it up and rate it on a scale from 1-10, 10 being the hardest. You should be at a 5-8 rating. As you become more advanced you can increase your weight. You should also be doing 2-3 sets of 10-15 repeations.* If your goal is to gain muscle mass, rate your rate using the scale, and you should choose a weight that rates between an 8-10. You should be doing 3-5 sets of 6-8 repeatitions.* If you are trying to increase your muscle endurance you should choose a weight that you rate about a 5-6. You should be doing 2-3 sets of 15-20 repeatitions.Should I be doing cardio? * If you your goal is to lose weight, tone up, or gain muscle endurance, than yes you should be doing cardio a minimum of 3 times a week. Remember, you can burn yourself out so it is not a good idea to do cardio everyday of the week.How often should I lift weights? * About 4-6 times a week would be plenty. However there is one key rule to keep in mind. Do not work the same muscle group two days in a row (for the exception of the abdominals). Your muscles need time to repair themselves. If you don't give them at least 24 hours rest, you take the risk of injuring yourself from the overuse of a muscle.Why is lifting weights important? *When you build up muscle, you are burning fat. However, due to muscle weighing more than fat, your weight may not change very much because the fat is being replaced by the muscle. So do not get discouraged if you do not see a change in your weight at first; you will probrably see a change in the way your clothes fit first.How can I keep track of my progress? * Inches is more important that weight. The more inches you lose, the slimmer and more fit you will appear, even if your weight has not changed very much.* The best thing to do is to take a tape measure and measure these specific body parts. -chest-across the shoulders-the waist (this is actually about an inch above the navel-the hips-both biceps (do npt be surprised if one is a little larger than the other, this is very common)-both thighs-both calfs* Keep track of these measurements. Do them again in about a month and then you can see which areas have had the most improvement and which ones the least. Then you know which areas to start working on a little more.Contact Information I am a certified personal trainer through the National Personal Training Institute.
