I just got a membership at a local gym with my mom. They have all kinds of machines, so many that I don't know what to do. I'm planning on going 3-5 times a week for about an hour. What are some routines I could try? Like if I should stay on one machine the whole time or alternate and switch machines a few times. I want to have an efficient and effective workout while I'm there. (link)

Good afternoon. In order to answer "What should I do with my 60 minutes at the gym?" one should know what your goals are. If you have goals to lose weight the workouts will be completely different than if you had goals to compete in an athletic event. So, what they'd basically ask you at "the gym" is ...
1. Where is your fitness now?
2. Where do you want it to be?
3. Do you have any health concerns?
4. How much time do you have?
5. What equipment/access do you have?
There are more detailed questions they might ask in those categories but for the most part, these should do it. If you and your mom have similar goals, you've got your workout buddy...and that's half of getting to the gym!
Good luck and ask more questions if needed.
