I am a college student 5′2 and 98 lbs. Lately I have been feeling a little slow and want to start working out and regain the energy I had as a girl. I am a little self conscious to join an exercise group and most of what my family recommends is too exhausting for me (I’m smaller than the rest of my family). Ladies, can you help me out with a good exercise routine?

You are certainly fit given your height and weight, even under weight.
For more energy try walking some every day for exercise, it really does improve how you feel.

Why don’t you just do simple exercises while you watch TV? Sit ups, jumping jacks, running in place. I do this and take breaks during commercials and its an easy way to work out. Pick your favorite 30 minute show and you have an easy 20 minute work out if you take breaks during commericals.

Wow those 2 guys are idiots.. Okay So you are a little thing. so if you want to regain energy and not build anything I would just do the treadmill start out doing 15 min a day and work to 30 doing no longer then 45 min because like everything else your body will get used to running for that long and you will have to up it.So just rotate between those times. Hope that helps! Good luck. Oh and take vitamins that will def help!

Well, there’s not much you can do. Once you grow up, you just don’t have as much energy, but you can still have some. Here’s a good routine:
5:00-5:30am-jog or run around your neighborhood (or on a treadmill)
pilates, yoga, or ballet
(in between time=work or studies)
when you get home,
-jog or run around your neighborhood (or on a treadmill)
(or you can join a sport!)
stretching and doing yoga is a great way to relax and gain more energy.
I hope you have fun.

Join a gym and jog 3-4 times a week on the treadmill. Moderate jogging for around a mile or two each time. Mix that up with light weight training.
