KeyshaD321 Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 Hello all! Today was day 1 for me. I cant believe I actually did the entire 30 minutes. My issue is this, when its time to run, i did more of a light jog. Im not sure if i am extending my legs correctly. Most of my life i was pretty slim, but i had a car accident a few years ago ( struck by a vehicle while walking ) and i now fear putting stress on my body More stress. My bmi is high but i am determined to lose this weight! Any advice would be greatly appreciated! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cendorly Posted March 8, 2015 Report Share Posted March 8, 2015 At this point, don't worry if you're running/jogging properly or not. Listen to your body - does anything hurt when you start jogging? If not, then you're doing it fine. Are you moving forward when jogging (even if only a little?) Then you're doing it right. As you progress, you will find your natural stride and speed. What worked for me was jogging in place for a bit, then just putting one foot in front of the other once I had a good rhythm going. Keep at it - you can do it!

KeyshaD321 Posted March 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 Thanks Cendorly! I will try not to be so self conscious and keep telling myself to just keep moving. Today was ny rest day. Not really sore, just my right calve is a little tight. Im gonna do some stretching tomorrow before and after tomorrow and see if that helps.

KeyshaD321 Posted March 9, 2015 Author Report Share Posted March 9, 2015 Wk1d2 my legs hurt while i was running. But not so bad that i stopped. Came home and had a nice soak. Gonna do 30 minutes of stretching tomorrow and hopefully that will help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
