Every week for the past 3 Sunday’s I have taken
measurements: I was down 2lbs from last week, bringing me to 190lbs (12 Total!),
down almost 2 inches in my waist, 1½ inches in my hips and an inch in my thighs!
So what are my workouts like? The emphasis is “my workouts” by the way. They are different every day!
To me working out is a process, not a program. And believe me… I have been on and tried many programs. This time however the majority of my workouts have come in the form of isometrics. As I posted last Friday the 13th 2012, last week I did a 164 move Still Motion Fitness™ workout that took me to another world. The best part is I woke up the next day, and the day after, and felt great! No soreness!

I have also utilized resistance training with weights,
push-ups, pull-ups and an occasional bike ride.
But the Still Motion Fitness™ Workout is based on the idea
that you can put your body in different positions and contract muscles without
a lot of joint movement except to get into and out of the position and to transition
of one position to the next. For example if you wanted to train leg, hip, spinal
and abdominal muscles in a series of moves you could go from what I call a jack
knife(pictured above) to a hip lift(pictured below) back to an opposite arm and leg jack knife (on both sides)
then back to a single leg hip lift (on both sides).
The possibilities are endless and the results… well,
fantastic. I am not sore from my Still Motion Fitness Workouts and I can make
them last from 10 minutes to 50+!
I have to admit… since this is the way I have been training
people for the past 3 years, it comes easy to me as I have been perfecting
moves and sequences of moves. But none the less with a mostly plant based diet and
the will to listen to my body every day I have been able to do what seems
appropriate and not get hurt. I may get into lifting weights more or changing to different endurance training as the weeks and months go on but I like the isometrics because I can do them any time… any where!
Be sure to visit my other blog Wednesday The Still Motion Fitnes™ Workout Blog for more information about the isometric workout!
And don't forget to comeback Friday as I answer more of your questions!
Health and Happiness!
