I would have to agree VF. Without everyone here I would still be doing the classic Firms and Cathe. I have tried and enjoyed so many other instructors and workouts--especially barre and fusion. I get so much encouragement and motivation from everyone here and the trades are great.

I was really scratching my head over this one, because no single workout type as made a huge difference. There have been plenty of small, incremental improvements over the years as I've added things on.
But after reading through the posts, I'd have to agree with VF, because exercising at home has allowed me to be consistent through all sorts of lifestyle changes, career changes, family additions, and all the disruptions that can derail you. Plus, lots of stuff just doesn't get to my town, or it comes years later. So it gives you the chance to find out and experiment with a wider range of exercise types.

Yoga has been huge for me too, but really, I progressed from sporadic attempts at fitness to an actual fitness journey the day I switched to morning workouts. That's what made it possible for me to stay on a program, to exercise daily (weekdays at least) without fail, and to focus on my workout instead of being distracted by everything else that goes on in the evenings.
I am NOT as strong or flexible in the mornings as I am in the afternoons. Doesn't matter. It's all about showing up.

Leslie & stretching. Leslie because I can do her daily & it being low impact which equals no injuries & working out more often. And I just walking workouts! Stretching because I am more flexible & fewer injuries.
As you can see being injury free is an important to maintain from past experience I keep that in mind! I also have mastered making ever workout I have to modify to my needs! A special thanks to VF & everyone's input! I would not have tried Ellen or Leslie if it was not for the girls here! |

Weights without a doubt. I have always dabbled in weight lifting but never with any consistancy and never anything over 5 pounds Since starting a CONSISTANT weight training program (since January) I have lost a total of 24 pounds and 21 overall inches. I still do some cardio but not nearly as much as I used to, it's the weights that have truly changed my body
