Exercise have been something I discovered after starting this WOL. It has been fun and rewarding. Sometimes I struggle. I started as a total newbie. Everything needed to improve: conditioning, stamina, strength, flexibility. I guess it is easy to improve when you start at rock bottom.
I am doing my exercise by my self for the time being. I have been thinking of joining a class and I may still do that but so far this is going well.

Finding the right exercise for me
This has been fun too. I have found that when I like something I stick with it. Not necessarily the right thing as you need variation.
I am focusing on three areas:

Cardio:
I want to improve my conditioning and endurance. I have been doing walking videos and running for this.

Flexibility:
Yoga and crunches are helping me here

Strength:
Doing weights and other exercises here.

Weekly workouts
Goals: 5 to 6 workouts per week
What I am doing now
Running: C25K three times a week. Walking 2-3 times a week before the strength training.
Weights/strength: 2-3 times a week
Yoga: One time a week
