Hi there, I'm an 18 year old girl and Ive come to realise im not as fit as id like to be. I cant walk very long distances without being out of breath. I had my daughter two years ago and I'm afraid my body isnt in the correct shape for my age.And I'd love for my chest muscles to be more defined and my stomach to be, well not exactly flatter, but defined and in proper shape. I'm sure at this age im not supposed to feel like an old woman!! I really want to get healthier and stronger before its too late to change my lazy ways.My calf muscles and thigh muscles are also really badly out of shape. I'm not fat, im just not fit. My legs are very weak and I hate it. :0( I have given up smoking for two days now, not a lot i know, but better than still smoking 20 a day i am sure! The reason i gave up is because i developed a nasty cough and i have occassional slight athsma. I have no access to a gym because i am at home with my 2 year old daughter all day. Does anybody have any ideas for exercises i could do at home? Thanks in advance.

Welcome em18. You have come to the right place. If you have time fill in your profile. Also if you have signed up pick the at home exercise plan. After you have entered some information you will have a program set up for you that will get you started. There are many inhouse things that can be used to help do arm exercises, along with doing abdominal work, crunches etc, push ups, squats, and so forth that will get you started. Good luck on your wanting to get fit.

The only thing I can think of Em18 is to go back into the profile section, re-enter the information. Be sure to hit the go button which will take you to the next page. Do the same if you have other pages. If it asks you if you agree to the terms say yes. HOpe that works.
