Hi All
Official weigh in and target + 1, so still dont have to pay, but prefered being under target as I was beginning of Dec, so a few more weeks and I will be where I liked being
Loads to catch up on, so hope I dont miss anything!
Picklednut great weight loss so far
I believe the bells is one of the quickest exercise routines to lose inches, so dropping a couple of dress sizes will be acheivable quite quickly (as long as you keep on plan food wise) I would not recommend trying to work a bell to a dumbell routine when new to swinging, sorry, but a bell works you so differently from dumbells, weight machines etc and you could get a really bad injury! I would suggest a 5kg, and just do as many as you can on any moves you feel weak at doing, at a slower pace, taking a little breather, i.e. switch arms, do 3 on right, then left, back to right, etc even if its only a couple of reps. Check out the links in my sig and practice those, as well as cheap dvd links that could get you started and the link martin has put on will also give you some more moves to practice with. You cant normally buy each kw dvds individually, there are some short routines on youtube, there is a link to one way back on this thread, but i think it was a Lauren Brooks routine, I will have a see what i can find.
Sweet great to hear your shoulder is better and ready to swing
Christmas was a gluttoness haze of days, so yes very enjoyable lol. Running this time of year must be difficult with the cold, dark and rain, but the days are getting longer! Haha week 1 cardio, its enough to put anyone off, good luck
Chelsea I am looking forward to result time
even with the blip at christmas, if nothing else you can do all the sets now, compared to when you started and struggled doing one, so there is already a positive result. Our bodies will bloat up and down, alot is pending on water retention, which could be from something as small as soya sauce in a meal
Suseka how annoying! I hope they get them in soon so you can get swinging. Only another 150 pages to go !!! lol Keep posting and fingers crossed you get everything really soon, and start swinging
Martin how do you know all the kw moves lol kelly only beat you cos she cheated
Nicole welcome
If your making your own routine, try grouping exercises into core, anything that targets abs, sides back, resistance alot of slow concentrated moves, usually low reps. cardio anything that gets you breathing heavily, altho I would recommend you do a few exercises for all body parts in each of your groups, if you need any help or advice please post. Get a 5kg, anything lower would be too easy after a couple of weeks. Get yourself measured up and join the swinging club
SS oh booo, hope they come in on Sunday
Hi gettingfit, hope you are keeping well. i have seen these, its a good idea, and the price in comparison to buying single bells cant be beat. I think if you started using this at the beginning it could be ok as you would get used to it, altho the size would make it difficult for some moves
Hi Pandora thanks for posting, we love the sales
herewego i couldnt do punches and gunslingers with my 4.5 i still struggle with those particular moves and always go low! Your hubby sounds like mine lol He started doing them as he saw the changes in me, and his beer belly was expanding and i was looking fit
and after i proved that the bells are a mans exercise he had a go, now he loves Ryan to bits lol
Sue lol really happy to hear your liking Advanced, and hope your bra comes soon to control those bad boys. Good luck for WI, I am sure you have made a good dent in your christmas gain
Shirleen well you did do a marathon swing on your first session lol
Cleogin isnt core great
hope your aches go soon ready fo resistance
Wirralmum welcome, you wont be disappointed and can have your own amazing before and after pics
Hi eatwell, you will soon have that gain off, altho i still have chocolate and bits in the house so it can be a bit tempting
For thighs you need a variety of lunges and squat type moves, also squeezing those muscles when working them will make a difference quicker. Tip your pelvis and squeeze butt and thighs at the top of swings, squats, etc just adds that little extra
Keep swinging
