Much of that answer depends on your fitness level. A person who has been mostly sedentary will need to start off lightly, while one who's been very active can push themselves intensely. It also depends on what results you want. If you trying to get rid of fat, cardio, provided you do it at enough intensity, works best.

When I started my plan weighing at 240lbs, I began with two 30 minute sessions per day, and each week would increase both sessions by ten minutes. Each week, I would lose 6 pounds, until the 7th week, which I only lost 2 pounds.
The following weeks, I did only one session of cardio and increase weight training intensity.
Nowadays I do weights, rest, cardio; rinse, repeat.

    I miss traveling with my husband. Has anyone found a specific site regarding cruising for widow/widowers or any sightseeing trips. Not interested in being with couples and kids,,,I realize a cruise ship will have a portion size of families and couples, but perhaps they also put together a part of the cruise ship for groups of widows/widowers????

A deep longing accompaniedby the deepest Love some days. The heavy fog mayreturn and the next day, it may recede.Once again, it's...
