Abs Without Doing a Crunch..?

Monday, May 16th, 2011

Hey ladies,

If you have a tough time toning your tummy and minimizing that muffin top – try this when training at home.

Think compound moves like I have mentioned before.

But also think stability and balance exercises.

  • 1 Leg exercises
  • 1 Arm exercises
  • Involve a wobble disc, Bosu or Balance board
  • Use a stability ball

All of these things above that are mentioned will incorporate your (big words) proprioception, vestibular balance and most importantly = your CORE!

Basic isolated moves for exercise have their place, don’t get me wrong… I would never suggest a newbie to exercise to start doing compound moves or extreme balance exercises.

Nor would I suggest someone looking to build strength, to start training with complex, compound movements. (Or even stability and balance type moves either.)

For strength training you would need solid support. A base to push or pull from or to lift/press maximum weight without injuring say… your back.

But trust me, like Kevin in the video – your body (and abs) will be shaking all over the place.

This makes your mid section a Fat Burning Furnace.

Start with a stable base (feet wide),

Then move on to 1 arm at a time,

Next, put your feet completely together with 1 arm at a time,

If you are feeling like Olivia Newton John or Suzanne Somers – put 1 foot in the air aligned with your body (parallel with the floor).

Enjoy the video, more quick, efficient, home fitness for you busy Mom’s to come.

Train with a Buddy!

Friday, June 11th, 2010

Very cool product from my good buddy Marc Lebert.

His fitness inventions are awesome.

This video was very impromptu. I was getting a coffee from Starbucks and on my way to taking my daughter to school.

Marc called me up and asked if I wanted any Buddy Systems to torture my clients and myself at the same time?

I said, “Do they really work Marc”?

That’s what got him angry I guess?

Out the Buddy System came.

I was in trouble!

Jadah couldn’t stop giggling.
