Climbing Back on the Fitness Wagon...Slowly
Hi guys
Most of you probably don't remember me. I've been a member here since 2008 but for the past 4 or 5 years, life has gotten in the way of my fitness goals to the point that I am really out of shape.  I used to be an avid follower of the classic Firms, original FitPrimes, Cathe, Kelly Coffey-Meyer, and anything with Tracie Long.  So fast forward to last night. I was in the attic looking for something and I came across a few of my old DVDs sitting in a box. Just seeing them brought back happy memories of the time when I was working out regularly and I felt fit and healthy. I decided I have to do something positive where my fitness is concerned. So I'm climbing back on the fitness wagon. Slowly. I know I can't just do today what I was able to do yesterday. It's going to be a gradual process. I was always all about simple workouts (I cannot do even moderately complicated choreography) so I've decided to stick with the DVDs in the photo below. As I recall, they were all pretty much no-nonsense workouts. FitPrime: Strong Bear FitPrime: Fast Cheetah Tracie Long: Weights First The Firm: The Tortoise The Firm: Maximum Body Shaping The Firm: Tough Tape 1&2 KCM: 30 MTF Weight KCM: 30 MTF Cardio Blast KCM: 30 MTF Muscle Definition KCM: 30 MTF Bootcamp I think there should be enough there to get me started. I'm not going to go looking of any more of my DVDs just yet.

Welcome back. You are no alone at coming back to fitness. You're wise to pick a plan that you know can work for you.

Thanks, Dana and Laura.
Yes, these vids worked for me before so I'm hoping they will again!
