10 minutes daily Ab work out!
I'm a pretty active person, but when I injured my ankle (took me 3 months to begin to get back to normal) I was grounded and couldn't do all the sporty things and started just accumulating some belly fat.
Since I couldn't go out and be active like a maniac, I tried modifying some exercises that works for me to just use a yoga mat to do at home in a low key non strenuous way. I find that if I have a set of exercises that I do each day even for as little as 10-20 minutes, and be conscious of what I put into my body, the positive results happen pretty quickly. I can see noticeable difference in about 2 weeks of consistently following the same daily regiment. Below is a really good Ab work out instructional video that you can do in the comfort of your own home! Please keep in mind that in conjunction with the abs work out, doing some cardio (such as running/swimming), as well as maintaining a healthy balance diet will ensure optimal results! Enjoy! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DPdpsvOxMoI [EDIT: Oops, I put this thread in the wrong section. Could a lovely Moderator move this to the exercise section please? Thanks!] |
Thanks for sharing...I do Yoga at home, nothing complicated just maybe 30 mins daily def helps. And swimming is awesome - I prefer doing it in summer tho
Running, Im kinda addicted to that (got the running genes I guess) hello summer body |
I need rock hard abs to create artistic symmetry while I dance. Can't let myself go! lol >_<

I'm kidding really, I am filled with self-appreciative ecstasy at times when I look in the mirror and notice my face looks thinner, now that my slimmer-for-summer diet is kicking in. I shout and go dancing around the room in glee. Ego can be a fun thing too. :tongue: |

I think ego and vanity is fun to toy with occasionally but we shouldn't be too attached and take them home to bed. LOL But for me, I think there is definitely a fine line between healthy self esteem VS vanity/body dysmorphic disorder. I choose to practice the former, but the latter was something I used to struggle with for a long time especially when I grew up and worked in fields where physical beauty was worshiped. When you grow up everyone treating you like a beautiful object you start to think that that's all you are worth. :( That's also a high standard to psychologically try to maintain. I even once attempted to curb my vanity by shaving off my hair... well I only shaved off my hair, the vanity was still there! I think what helped me years later was once again finding that inner Divinity, Goodness, and LOVE within me. That is worth a whole lot more than this temporal vehicle that it resides in. I can honor and cherish this temple, but I don't have to be too attached to it anymore. Thank goodness, that saves me from a lot of suffering. Baile! What dancing do you do? I dance modern and ballet! I see you were in musical theatre! That's so awesome. Beauty and the Beast IS my all time favorite Disney movie. "For who could ever love a beast?" Such a lovely tale and a happy ending especially when he transforms. I feel like it's such a good parallel to spirituality. =D That's Sergei Pulonin, one of my inspirations. Check out this dance video/song, it's amazing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c-tW0CkvdDI |
