In short terms I would recommend starting out by doing cardio/running.
Then finding a regime that's catered to what you want done.
By the time you do find it, you will have built up some good stamina and overall strength.
And as a plus you will have dropped some good amount of body fat
making things easier as well as setting the playing field for that toned physique.



I do normally run a lot, because my younger sister is athletic, and always wants someone to skip with her. So, I do run miles often. I'll start running more, I suppose. How many miles do you think I should do in a day? Or in a span of two days?


Oh it's a good thing you're already into it.
I'd say do a test and see what is the max you can run and how often you can do so.

Make a chart, plan or schedule to see just exactly what you want to accomplish.
Once you have a goal and a routine, make it a habit.
And do go as often as you can with your sister.
People around you that you know and do this with can help keep that goal in check.
It's always great to know that there is someone you can look to or compete with and give you that drive!

I'm currently going to start running after I get back in training for the Army again.
I have been a light smoker for a bit on and off through high school years and just quit.
Importantly I had to keep away from those friends who were always smoking! D;

I used to be quite a gym rat too.
But this running is going to be very new to me and with some heart problems
I've got to take slow baby steps.

Anyone can run, but if you take it a bit at a time and work up it gets easier.
And once you find it getting to easy you can turn things up a notch.

In spare time enter races, marathons, and meets.
You'll find you feel a lot better, look a lot better and do a lot better as well.
Most of all people start to look to you for advice as a role model.

And remember not to feel bad if you need time to rest.
Just mix things up a bit, walk if you have to.
Or try yoga on another day and some good stretching to keep your body feeling well.

Here's a few great articles that can help you.

-Running the 5K



Wow .. You have been very helpful! Running is more in my league, because I was in track for all of my middle school.
Congratulations on quitting! I wish my mother would do the same, she used to smoke a pack a day, but she is down to half a pack, now. .. Sadly, I am not as fit as I used to be in middle school. I was diagnosed with depression and anxiety nearly three months ago, and have been awfully tired and just cut off from others. I had given up with school, and didn't even bother to go anymore, because I would have a breakdown/panic attack at the road that I cross to go to school. I tried walking with a friend, and it still did not work. My heart is tilted to the left ten degrees, so my oxygen path isn't that well.
I will surely check out the websites, thank you so much!




Oh boy. o:

I was in the same boat for depression, but it isn't something I can get rid of as it's a
chemical imbalance in the brain.
I was on a lot meds for a couple of years when I first started and during that time I was
doing great and always going to the gym.

But then I realized it was just fake and took myself off it.
Well upsetting things would happen I did know whether I should feel upset or laugh.
When others were frowning I was smiling and I didn't know why.
I'm me for a reason and I'd rather not change that.

I think it's also a matter of taking what you see and changing the shape of it.
I used to hate the winter and fall and love the summers and springs.
But then I completely flip-flop through the 2 toughest years of my life.

All the things I hated I learned to love.
I thought if someone else may like this, there must be a reason for it.
So let me try to see what about it can be liked.

I couldn't be in a car because I felt like flooring it and getting the hell off he road.
Now I could spend time just driving miles.

It's important because as humans we naturally remember the negatives.
Our minds are like film cameras and that's what it leaves in storage.
It's up to us to develop and process that black and white film to the colors
that we wish to see become the right picture.

Yes life is tough.
And a lot of things I wish didn't happen.
But I wouldn't go wanting to change it because it makes you who you are.
You wouldn't know how to value all the little good things in life without ever
having never really known how much of it you don't possess.

Though I may forever be stuck being sad and down.
I will always know what happiness really is.
And people who have that under their noses usually end up spending a lifetime to find it!

Just enjoy yourself, have fun, life, hangout with friends!
Who care what they may see of you if they have problems.
I know one thing for sure.
People love to be around others who like to have fun.

Take a drive on the road this summer.
Open the window, feel the nice warm air and just daydream and laugh about good times!
And find things to make you laugh, just laugh everyday.

Wow, that made me want to marry you.
Very inspirational, though. My anxiety is like that.
It renders me useless when I get close to large areas.
My meds feel like they ARE working though ..
Unless it is all in the head? I'm not sure.
Thank you for helping, I appreciate it tons ..

Haha.
I'm told I have a way with words.

If your meds are working well for you..
I think it may just be a bit or nervousness or mood change.
A lot of people panic at this and don't know how to interpret these feelings and some take
life threatening measures and it "gets blamed on the drugs".

Which isn't always the case.
A lot of it I believe is not being understood the right way.
As I am a psych maj. and know it quiet well first hand.

It's I think those emotions, getting them is like a new thing no matter how long you've been on it.
You just need to think about it and learn to identify them to a better degree.

I've had a lot of "empty", "numb", "dis-attached" feelings that made me have this odd feeling.
Next came the urge to do reckless things, get mad, aggressive.

I was also agoraphobic.
So I looked into it and decided to channel that.
Yes I still have anxiety and everything and I was never a people person.

So I started pushing myself into large crowds and places that I couldn't handle alone.
And believe me I'd go alone, into city traffic too.
But over time, I started to ease into it.
Like learning to swim and doing deeper and deeper one inch at a time.

I decided to attack everything I feared.

I became a crowd please-r, people found my humor hilarious and my persona and
talents to be amazing.
And it was weird to find out from my sister that people started asking for me
at parties that I just didn't want to leave the house and go to.
I learned very quick that I had a way with people and was quiet the entertainer.

I think it's all the confidence.
When other see me painting and winning awards for things that I do well,
it makes me feel good and realize..
"I can do this, what was I thinking!"

I'm shocked to know how much I've changed and how much people love to be around
me wherever I go.
I think you just need to be yourself.
You have anxiety, okay it sucks.
But there's good things too.
Sometimes it makes life exciting just like it makes it horrible.

There were days I had a panic attack being nearly late for work, losing my car keys
having the worst day ever. And I remember after t all coming home being sick to
my stomach thinking...
"Wth, a lot of people are late to work, it happens, bad days happen...I'm a person too."
And I just laughed at how stupid I felt for being scared at making a honest human mistake.

It's all about how you take things in.
