I thought about buying that program off of TV. 6week body slim down. I have lost a little already, but was wondering if that really worked? I am trying to give up drinking too- but I want to get ready for all the alcohol!!! Can't wait for the body shots!!!

Nope.. I actually bought that one. Didn't stick to it. I went about 2-3 weeks. Lost a couple pounds but then couldn't stay away from alcohol and sushi. This 12 week thing I joined is a local ATL boot camp that includes the diet and the personal training. Still not really sticking with the diet but at least I am required to excercise. Also, not sticking with the no alcohol

Oooh.. body shots! Count me in!

After reading a lot of the posts on here I have come up with my own little exercise regeim. I don't have access to a gym, but I do have an exercise bike and some pilates tapes. So I am riding the bike for a minimum of 2 hours a day and then I will alternate between the thighs and buns pilates and the upper body pilates. Have a few small free weight so probably will use those too.

I bought the Carmen Electra strip aerobics dvd which is a lot of fun and a good workout. I don't eat too healthy normally so I am trying to cut out soda and fast food out of my diet for the last 2 months. I get up every morning at 4:30 and work a very physical job so my metabolism is good, I want to be more toned though so I want to start going to the gym, but I leave for TR in 11 days so I better get to it!! Oh yeah, and have lots of sex, it's a fun way to burn calories!

personally, I need to drop off a few, so I've simply restricted my carb intake (not eliminating it, just reducing it) and I've reduced my portions.

In the past, I was a double quarter pounder for breakfast and lunch kinda guy (with huge dinner portions and seconds on top of that). I would snack on just awful crap throughout the day like 3 or 4 bags of chips (Boulder Canyon Malt Vinegar and Sea Salt chips RAHWK!!!), a couple of candy bars and loads of pop and energy drinks. Now it's water with lemon, and MAYBE one chewy granola bar or something.

I'm dropping off a pound or so a day doing this. Hopefully I'll hit my target by the time we get to TTR so I can compete in a few contests.

I just ordered my wife a stripper pole so she can used that for working out. She said it was the best work out she ever did when we were at hedo3 a few years ago.

Oh boy....someone didn't say MMA and Krav Maga!!!!!!!! I could go on for days and days and days. Check out www.kravmaga.com. It's by far the best thing you'll ever do for yourself. I've trained for years. First off, it's fun. A lot of fun. Second, it's a HUGE workout. You'll have fun, be learning something, and also getting a workout like no other. Krav Maga is a form of self defense. The system took all the best of each of the hundreds of martial arts and fighting styles and combined them into one. It's most similar to MMA (mixed martial arts)...the UFC full contact type fighting stuff. Punches, kicks, etc. But it's more then that too. The fighting aspect of it will teach you quickly how to be affective with attacks but it teaches defense and how to get out of situations. It's really street fighting. Now, does it sound like a thing for guys...maybe! I do it because i love MMA style fighting. I love putting the gear on and sparring. For the women, spar as well and I've sparred with many. It's also going to teach you how to get out of bad situations. Someone comes up and grabs you....what do you do??? You get into a situation and are swung at?? What do you do? What do you do when his buddy comes at you too?? I experienced the last one. I had already trained in Krav. lets say I was fine!! Krav has one rule, GET HOME SAFE.

I could go on for days. Krav is something great to learn that hopefully you never use but it's nice to know. It's like those that own guns and have CCW's...you hope you never need it. Krav is the same. Get deep enough into training and you'll learn gun, knife, and stick/club defenses too. What if you're at the ATM and someone comes up and puts a gun to your back????

OK, I just wrote a novel. Any questions or more details...feel free to ask. I LOVE THIS SUBJECT!! Not to mention, it's responsible for putting me in the best shape of my life.

Krav is Isreali close quaters martial arts, MMA is mixed martial arts ( punches, kicks, groundwork, etc). :box: The workouts consist of A LOT of core work and stress pushing yourself as much as you can. Alisa really loves it although she always wants to spar at home :lol:
They are also adding some kettel bell work which is supposed to be another killer for the core and promotes more functional strenghtening.

Heres a link that shows some of the stuff.

Kevin you beat me to it. We love it. We've only been at it for 2-3 weeks but love it. I have worked out form most of my life and this is by far the most grueling thing that I have ever done. Its great that Alisa and I can do this together. Plus , she's only 5-2 ish 115 pounds- I feel better knowing she'll be better able to get out of a sticky situation.
I just started to add the MMA class to my weekly workout.

Sounds like an awesome way to exercise and learn how to protect yourself at the same time. Thanks for taking the time to explain.
