Exercise of the Week: Free Weights to Stave Off Cottage-Cheesey Thighs!
Since some of you just HAVE to have the weights to feel like you’re doing something…
I just got some weights, so I'll have to try this. :)
Thanks for posting!
Toni_M You're welcome, Toni. And by the way, when are you gonna come over here and write a blog or two, hmmmm?
Christelyn I'd love to blog for you. :) It just seemed rude to ask. If you want, you can repost any of my blogs, and I'll definitely hit you up about articles in the future.
I love free weights and weight training/power lifting in general. Just did 115 lbs bar squats today!
Christelyn LOL, it took a while, but it feel soooo good!
Chris! LOOKS GREAT!! Love your video. Keep em coming!
Ricky T Coming from a "health expert" like yourself, that's quite a compliment, Ricky!
I hate squats, I really do but they work and so I incorporate them in my exercise regimen.Thanks for motivating me!
Karla Karla, what's your daily exercise reggie? Inquiring minds want to know...
Christelyn On Mondays and Wednesdays, I do yoga. On Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays, I do weights after walking to the gym (about two miles from my house) and on Fridays, I do Pilates. Every morning, before anything, though, I do Qi Gong and Tai Chi. I have been doing Qi Gong and Tai Chi for seven years so I can do the long form in my sleep. I love it and it really centers me. At home, I have a barre, a magic circle and a weighted bar because if I have a full day of work, i may not make it to the gym but I won't talk myself out of doing a routine.
Christelyn Oh and I also do iTrain for when I'm traveling. I actually like it because there's a lot of variety.
Karla That's great, Karla! I've mainly dedicated my workout routines to yoga flow and pilates. I'd love to get a barre for my home gym though--where did you get yours?
Christelyn I bought mine from Ajustabarre (http://www.ajustabarre.com/powobaba.html) and this is the one I bought:

I tried this with some 8 pound weights, and boy were my legs tired! It really works. I'll try this exercise from now on and see what kind of results I get.
