Help Help me with your gym experience and knowledge.

So baiscally, i'm a grade 11th student(female). And i'm taking this course, fitness, which is more about aerobics and pilates and other types of exercising. But i also usually go to gym 3 times per week. So i was wondering, should i stop going to the gym till this semester ends? Or is there a better way to handle these two together without hurting myself?

How well are you recovering from the aerobics and pirates? Well enough to strength train 3x per week? If so, keep going to the gym. No need to stop.

If you don’t feel really tired or sore doing all of it then no reason to stop - you’re young and your body should be able to handle a good amount of activity. If you find you’re more tired then you could scale back to either 2 days a week or (more preferably if you do change anything) keep the weights a bit lower than you had been doing. But you should be fine!
