Gettin back to it

jess_vause Posts: 1 Joined: 2009/07/27	2009/07/27, 03:40 PM Hey everyone! I was wondering if anyone could give me some good pointers to get my body back. I know it will never look exactly the same but I know it can be a lot better. I am 22 and I have 2 children, a 4 yr old and a 3 yr old. I use to compete in competitions when I was 16 and 17. I am 5'7" and I now weigh in at 168 which is absolutely horrible for me. The only time I have ever been this size was when I was preggo with my first. Can anyone please help me get some ideas on how to get lookin right again....Thanks!!!

I'd suggest starting off very slowly.. perhaps start with a full body workout.. one exercise per muscle group.. slow reps in the range of 15-20. Just feel the muscle. Then slowly build back up. Keep us posted and we'll do our best to help out.
