Welcome to "Ask the Trainer"

Hello and welcome to my new Blog - "Ask the Trainer". I have been a trainer now for about 26 years and enjoy helping people with their fitness needs. I created this Blog as a tool for my clients that have questions about their fitness goals. I have found that at least 50% of the questions I get from people are very similar. I hope that this Blog will evolve to answer not only those "basic" questions but to answer specialized fitnes training questions as well.

Hi Tony! My name is Erica, and I am 29 years old, 100 lbs, and 5'0" tall. I am very thin, but I am looing to firm up and tone my muscles. I don't want to add bulk, except to my glutes. This is my current worout routine:

*everything is done on machines

Seated Calf Raises: 130 lbs, 3 sets of 15 reps
Glute Extension: 130, 3x15
Hip Abduction: 100, 3x15
Seated Inclined Leg Press: 130, 3x20
Squats: 100, 3x10
Back Extension: 85, 3x15

Seated Row: 45, 3x15
Pull Down: 45, 3x15
Shoulder Press: 20, 3x15
Bicep Curl: 45, 3x10
Tricep Curl: 45, 3x10

Ab Crunch: 50, 3x15
Diff Ab Crunch: 40, 3x15
Ab Twist: 60, 3x10

What can I do differently to see results faster? I have been doing this routine for about 5 months now, only missing a couple of days here and there, and consistently adding weight about every other week.

Any advice would be appreciated!

Thanks in advance,

Erica
