Hello everyone another female newbie here... need help!
I was wondering if there is a trainer out there that can help me with my training. I just started lifting weights... I have been doing just cardio for years. I currently train 2 times a day. I do 45 min cardio in the a.m. and in the evening I do a 10 min cardio warmup, train 2 body parts a day not real heavy and then finish with 30 min cardio. I just reduced my cardio from 2 hours a day low intensity 6 days a week to 1 hour 15 min a day split in 2, high intensity 5 days a week. I am trying to gain a little more muscle on my upper body and keep my lower tone. My lower body is easy for me to build. I am afraid that by reducing my cardio so much I will gain weight. Can someone please help me. I know I shouldn't have to do so much cardio. Why is that there are so many people that do cardio 2-3 days a week and stay lean and I am doing cardio 6 days a week 2 times a day. I am 5' 3" and weigh 112lbs. I hold good muscle and I eat clean. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
