mysticwolf said: One of my goals is to do more lifting. I used to do it like 3 days a week but now 1 day is more like what I get. Not that I don't exercise, I do running 4-5 days a week, and I like running more than lifting. But I often get light-headed after doing strength training for 30-45 minutes, which is probably reflective of the fact that I've gotten out of the routing of lifting. |
This is probably redundant advice, but listen to your body. Start lighter and easier to get back into the swing of things. No shame in using bodyweight or lighter weights. Every lifter should do that anyway to perfect their for before trying for heavier weight.
Welcome aboard and good luck!
