I always exercised but was got very heavy for a few years so can say I achieved a great body (I think it is great, anyway) after age 35 from exercise and eating right (can't say the D word on this forum but that is what took weight off, exercise created the body and helped the D).
Type of workout for me varied (and still does). I exercise a lot and daily and never skip a day, just the regular stuff, jog/walk/run, weights, yoga, pilates and all stations in between. If you look at studies of people who have lost a lot of weight and kept it off for a long time, they exercise a lot on average. It doesn't matter what they do. Margaret may say she just does her own workouts and guess it is true but her TV programs and DVDs from the earlier years are standard exercise sessions with aerobics and weights (dumbbells). She did not invent this, she was just great at presenting it (love her, btw). Her later stuff, IMO, is very innovative and I think did create her later physical look. She seemed heavy but fit (and amazing, IMO) during some periods, doing her workouts using bodyweight and balls and things, no real weight. I guess I think it doesn't really matter what type of exercise one does to get a great body, just that one does exercise. And for weight loss, if that is an issue, it is about the D word. |
