I just recently started working out for the first time. I am really trying my hardest, but have been working out for nearly six weeks and am still not seeing much. It's getting a little frustrating at this point and I just don't understand. I have a trainer and am working out four times a week with about an hour of weight training and a half hour of cardio. He just started me on a plan where I jump rope for 30 seconds and then do two of my exercises in a row then repeat it until I am completely done with my workout. Then afterwards I do more cardio.
I'm attempting a better diet. I eat no fast food, cut out all my soft drinks, have a protein shake for breakfast, and I am eating almost no whites. Snacks are basically carrots or brocolli sometimes with a dab of natural peanut butter. My only weakness is of course ice cream which I have been cutting out slowly over the course of six weeks because I litterly changed my entire way of eating.
I have quite literally never played a sport or trained ever so this is extremely new and I am still a little confused. At any rate, what else should I do, or am I just being impatient?
