Yoga makes me violent...

 So I know that I promote Slim in 6 like it's God's gift to work out (cause it is)..But if it's not for you..It just isn't. There are so many different types of activities you can do to get in shape. Slim in 6 works for me. Want to know what doesn't? Yoga...Yoga makes me want to kill someone. It's not that it is overly hard or time consuming. It's the voice that comes with it..You know the soothing ahhh isn't this fun and relaxing I'm a dirty hippie voice? Maybe you don't hear it, but for me it's loud and screaming lol. Slim in 6 has a yoga part at the end of each phase that just riles me right up!

Personally, I like to run. Correction. I love to run. Why? Because it does not involve anyone but me. No trainer telling you to "push harder". No soothing "ahhhh isn't this fun"..No giggling about how great I am going to look when I am done. Just running. Simple. My boyfriend on the other hand, loves the extra push he gets from the lady on the tv saying "Just 8 more reps" when his legs are already feeling like jello. So joint work out sessions can be interesting in our house.

The point is, don't give up after just trying one work out. Try a bunch. www.beachbody.com is a great place to start. Their products come in a wide range of styles and levels and I trust the company.  I want to try a bunch of different ones but I am committed to 4 more weeks of Slim in 6 at the moment..4 more weeks of phase 3..ugh and 4 more weeks of ten minutes of yoga. But in 4 weeks I am going to be healthier, slimmer and more toned. And the yoga comes with it...as much as I hate it =)

  1. I use to love running....in High School LOL. Then when I was in the Navy doing our PT I remembered thinking to myself as I ran the mile and a half "you use to like this? You use to run the 2 mile? What the heck where you thinking?" LOL.
    I do like how slow and calm yoga is, but even tho I KNOW I'm getting a work out, it just doesn't feel like it to me, not like other exercise's make me feel.
    I'm still looking for the perfect workout for me. I do like doing free weights, and I know the weight I do doesn't matter to anyone, it's all about what's safe for me to do, but man do I feel like a wuss using free weights with all those guys lifting the heavy weights LOL.
