Today, I did one of the workouts in they had in Seventeen magazine. It was the first time I did it. After, I felt kind of shaky and exhausted. I felt like "woozy". Is there something wrong?
blwinteler answered Monday August 14 2006, 9:40 pm: You were most likely dehydrated. Make sure to drink plenty of water a little while before working out, as well as after. Also, make sure you warm up. Stretch a lot, keeping it nice and slow at first, get your muscles ready to move. If you feel woozy, take a break and drink some water or a sports drink, like gatorade. You can do some stretching while taking your break, and then go back to your workout if you feel up to it. It is normal for your heart to race and your body to ache. That is a sign of a good workout. But if you are lightheaded and shaky, stop for a while. I had a friend pass out from dehydration, and I have come close myself. Working out is good for you, but only if you do it right and take care of your health. [ blwinteler's advice column | Ask blwinteler A Question ]

Once you do your workouts everyday, you body will adjust and you won't have a problem with doing these exercises. Just make sure you're well hydrated and you should be good to go. ♥ [ MummuM's advice column | Ask MummuM A Question ]

Helpful answered Monday August 14 2006, 12:20 am: Feeling that way means that the workout worked! Continue because this is probably good for you. Just make sure to hydrate and don't be worried if you get a little sore. [ Helpful's advice column | Ask Helpful A Question ]
