Sweating...

Hi
Does anyone on here do any of Richard Simmons work out DVD's? When I lived in Los Angeles I use to go to his club "Slimmons", and I LOVED it!!! Since I am in Georgia now, and can't go anymore I just got a DVD of his (I use to have a few VHS but I don't have a player anymore). Anyways, I just did it, and it killed me It has been years since I have done it, and I could only do it for 15 minutes. I'm going to be patient with myself, and work my way up. I also got one of those work out balls (I'm so excited), and it should be here this week. I just wanted to share. It is my first time working out since I started Atkins a little over 2 weeks ago and it feels good

Re: Sweating...

Congratulations on working out! I don't do any of Richard Simmons' exercise DVDs but a friend of mine does. She really enjoys them and they are working for her.

I have an exercise ball. I really like it. I don't use it everyday, but when I do, I like it.

Congratulations on the weight loss so far too!

I love those exercise balls! You can sit on them and do crunches, do wall squats with them, lift or push them away from your body while you're doing squats, (you wouldn't think a ball with so much air could be so heavy...but it is!) and you can use them as a chair at your computer or watching TV to constantly work your abs and core.

Ooooo, I'm can't wait to get mine. I ordered it a couple weeks ago, and it'll be here this week. I got a Sissel ball because I've heard good things about it AND it is a no burst ball. Oh God if it pops I'll cry I also ordered a DVD for Yoga with the ball that looked like fun. Do you know of any good DVDs for it, or websites with demos??? I saw a few demos on the boards here too

I have Core Secrets that uses the exercise ball. The 25 minute workout isn't too bad. It uses the ball and some free weights. Usually the ball comes with a set of exercises to do.
