Title: Good Exercises for Women
Post by: MasterWolf1 on December 27, 2007, 11:48:57 AM
I am like David Ben Mosche when it comes to working out,,,  But I know some workouts that men do may be too much for women, but I still think working out either cardio or with weights is good for you, it keeps you toned and a strong healthy heart.   So what is a good suggestion for women and working out?  Cause I have a sister, nieces and a mother.  And I understand it varies from different age range.

Since I've been doing these Firm workouts, I've noticed tremendous strength gains.  For example, in the past I used to be able to do maybe 3 straight legged pushups.  Now I can do at least ten. 

But you have to do them regularly.  And I'm not always good about that.

 Good  Exercises for Women - swimming -joga- pilates - belly dancing - tai chi- even ball room dancing- kick boxing - tai bo.

Anything that stretches the muscle out rather than bulks it up. Womens muscles need to be longer and lean ideally.

   I have personal trainer in my country and he's fantastic! He helped me a lot but always I had to do more than the last time! I did a lot of abdomen's exercises ( reached over 2000/workout),cardio, thighs..etc and since I am a tennis coach, playing tennis is helping me as well ...for older women lifting weight are very good for osteoporosis. for younger women everything is aloud... :)

Have you ever met him? I have.

Really, Yacov?  You've met David?

He must of met David when he went to NY to do the interview with Chaim last year and no I don't go to the same gym, but I have known David for err few years already.  If you hear any of the classic QPTV audios done around 2003 any of the clips or footage he mentions "A strong supporter sent this, thank you Silver" that was my very old email I had called SilverWolf,, lol now its Master, the funny part of the Master in the sn when I debate blacks they end up kicking themselves calling me Master.

Do you know of any good personal trainers in NY?  Have you been keeping up with the exercises your trainer gave you since you've been living here?  You look great!

Still thats pretty embarrassing!  ;D

I find Yoga and all the movement exercises boring, but they are very beneficial. I just do a quick jog, and then its team sports or badminton.

No its not Sarah the women are of all ages I am the youngest at 33 and they go up from there, we talk, dance, have a great time and get fit. I have lost 3 inches off my waist, and toned my body.

Its all about being women, no one is negative at all. Sometimes we laugh too much  ;)

After my knee reconstruction I did swimming, and not being able to walk for 3 months took a toll, but I do suggest any exercise is better than nothing.  ;)

I have toned and lost 1 inches around my waist with belly dancing. And my Doc loves it thinks its great and going to recommend it, I also did a fitness test and I am up two points YAY  ^-^

I tried this Bellydancing For Weightloss video taught by Rania.  I must have done something wrong the first time because my knees ended up hurting.  The second time wasn't as bad, but I just cannot shake my hips as fast as those women were doing.  Nor was I able to do that move where you shimmy and walk forward at the same time.

Thats advance stuff lol, you need to start slow knees bent and the shimmy is really once you have control over you lower ab's. Better being shown by a real woman, because you need to be able to move muscles in your pelvic area to do it safely and comfortably.

I have the shimmy now to two minutes without stopping, I laugh to much and lose it.  :::D
I dance now two hours day.  ;D

LOL.
I'll stick to my bollywood dancing, since I don't have to move my hips as much.



I would love to do that it looks so much fun  :)

It is, but like Lisa's bellydancing series, the bollywood dancing hurt my ankles the first times. My feet got tired from it.
I wish I could do bellydancing.

If you were closer I would teach you, but since men have access to this area, I can't talk much about it. But I will encourge you to go to a class, if they are having fun then great join it, but if it is very strict, then no, it is about enjoying yourself for who you are  :)

The workouts I have found to me the least jarring, yet the most challenging are OLD Firm workouts (I think pre-1985).  Doing one of those videos is like taking a challenging, uninterrupted exercise at a gym.

Ice-skating, actually is quite physically demanding but fun as well.

Dancing is not evil. Its an expression of who you are. Being yourself my dear Sarah is never wrong.  :)

Then I guess dancing is not being myself, since i feel immensely uncomfortable when people start dancing and asking me to, at parties or anything. It's still fun to watch though. :)

Have you ever tried any other types of Dance?

Oh Sarah you miss understand me, when I talk of dancing I do not mean being a preforming seal in front of strangers, I am solely talking about the act as in the movement and spirit behind it.

Yes I used to ball room dance, I folk dance - Italian and Russian. I can dance many native dances of the Cook Islands.

OK, I'm going to make a confession...

I always say I HATE dancing...but I dance "The Thriller" when I hear the song.  :-[
(and the "Time Warp" too)

Ah it feels good to get this off my chest.

 ;D  ;D

That is sweet.
