Gym Training Sessions

[Ric.ror]

Ok so I’ve bitten the bullet and joined the gym. I had my first session with a personal trainer on Tuesday for one hour and have one booked for tomorrow too. How long will it take before I notice a difference?

Not long at all if you're there regularly.

What are you hoping for? Weight loss, toning up or fitness? You'll be surprised how quickly you feel an improvement, if you keep it up. The weight loss bit might take a bit longer than the other two though.

I’m hoping for all three
If I workout twice a week (Monday and Friday) then visit using the walker (??) on a Wednesday- that combined with my walking to work (2.9 miles) three x a week I should be like an athlete within two months shouldn’t I

"I should be like an athlete within two months shouldn’t I "

Depends on what, and how much, you eat and drink.
Good luck with it.

I joined a gym about two months ago. I thought I was reasonably fit: didn't get breathless when walking briskly but didn't run or swim. My "circuit" was a 15-minute warmup - bike and treadmill - 10-15 minutes on different weight machines then a 15-minute swim. so 45-60 minutes. I have been doing three sessions a week. After a couple of weeks I started to increase the intensity (but not the duration) - so running not walking, heavier weights for longer and a quicker swim.
