its an ab workout to get ripped abs, its works every muscle in your abs...its a short workout-10 mins but they say to do it everyday, i always do that and do another ab workout after.

Its on 'exercise on demand'

Re: Wedding workout progress report

i went today to this store by my job to buy some things for my trip bc i saw they had nice things...Well i saw one dress i really liked but they only had a sizes 4, 10 and 12 left so i said oh forget it. I asked the saleslady if she had anymore in other sizes and she didnt but looked at the ones on the rack and said i think size 4 will fit you, i said NO WAY!!!! i need an 8. Well she convinced me to try it on and it fit and not like its tight or anything. I couldn't believe, im so excited i have ALOT of toning up to do...and maybe its just the way the sizes run for that dress but hey i'll take it for now

Re: Wedding workout progress report

yay denise!! i'm so happy for you!!everyone sounds so positive..i love it!

i've been trying to eat healthy lately..this past weekend i tried my hand at golf for the first time (we went to a driving range) and after that my arms were so sore! haha. other than that, i've been working out in my hotel room while travelling or just trying to get myself to the hotel gym. i can't wait to go home and start doing yoga again!!

really weird story..today i was at work and some old guy asked me how i work out my arms. he said they looked really toned like i lift weights or something. i told him that it's probably just arm fat and he looked shocked and said no way...they're definitely toned. which made me feel so good because i've always thought i had fat arms

Re: Wedding workout progress report

I joined a gym about a month ago. Because of crazy work scheduling and my Nana being in the hospital I didnt get to go too much.

But now I am back into the routine of going. I am desperately trying to eat better. But sometimes junk food just gets the best of me.

But I wanted to know what were some good excersises to do for arms and legs!? Especially legs. I do cardio for about 30 min and hten move onto abs everyday at the gym. But I feel I need to do more for my arms and legs to get toned...

And I hate how chunky my thighs are so I need to loose some weight there...

any advice??

I dont know if you are interested but you should really try some classes., kickboxing is awesome for arms and boxing. Not sure if your gym has those classes. You can also try on demand pilates- Arms and chest for upper body . They are really good exercise.

I have a trainer and she has been teaching me some free weights., I would recommend maybe getting a session or two to go over some arm exercises and then just doing them on your own.


I do the elptical machine 3x a week for 30 minutes., try doing that instead of your cardio (it counts as cardio) You just use your arms to glide and it really works your arms out. FAST.

np, if you dont know how to use free weights I would use the machines., but free weights are more affective.
