EXERCISE: 20 minutes on treadmill, total of 1.75 miles, no walking. 5-7.5mph.
80 crunches, 30 per side side leg lifts, 30 on back leg lifts, 2 30 second plank poses, 30 unweighted squats, 2 sets 21s for biceps, 15 lunges per leg (have weak knees), 30 chest presses, 50 standing rows. All weight exercises executed with 8lb hand weights.

I know my weights are low, I'm starting slow back into weights with the goal of not building muscle, but toning what I already have. I am naturally very muscular, and it is easy for my body to build more. To maintain a lower weight and more feminine figure, I want to keep the cardio high to burn the fat, and tone rather than build. This means high reps, low weights, and I have a tendency to do too much, too fast, hence the really easing back into it.
