Its ok o, my sister. Rest is good, so that you will not be forced to rest for too long (our mind/body have a way of taking charge of everything)

happy new year all!

No exercise tonight, I just did 20 minutes stretch, for the waist and back. Am really weak today.

Happy new year all. This will be my first post to what I consider one of the best threads on nairaland.
Like most people here, I am on a quest to living a healthier life. I started working out consistently in August of 2011. I usually hit the gym 3 days a week after work. I do the aerobics class at my gym for an hour and do some weight training for about 20-30 minutes. So far I have lost about 20 pounds.

I have been seeing some references to some workout videos, taebo and the likes. Can I get some good workout video recommendations and where I can get them.

Thanks in advance

Welcome Echala to the healthiest thread on NL and congratulations on the weight loss so far. You will surely get there. Most folks here get their stuff from online, Amazon to be specific. You can try that too, I know your chances are limitless. There used to be a lady that dropped her phone number sometimes on this thread about some workout DVDs she's gat. I cant pick it anymore, but if you surf through the thread, you should find her. Also the lady that started this thread trimandtrendy has a site and blog now, I think she sells that too and I know she dey Lasgidi, so check her signature on the first page, that should help a lil.

@sammy, do you order stuffs? Go to www.womanwithin.com

@all happy and fit day ahead.

@uzoo, I havent been able to hit the gym since the strike. I have been using my jump/skip rope instead. I do a thousand skips each time and 50 pushups afterwards combined with some exercises targeted to my abs. I tried to jog along the lekki expressway yesterday afternoon, but the area boys along the road acosted me asking for 'settlement', so I just went back home. I have done more exercises during the strike more than than when there was no strike.

^^ @ echala: so i guess every cloud has a silver lining, nice one

@echala: welcome!
Logs for 12/1/12
Get extremely ripped dvd (60 minutes workout, more if strength, plus 8 minutes ab bonus)
16 minutes on the cross trainer

I just discovered that many dieting routines are merely subtle ways to sell junk food and keep us on the obese side. I have found out the best way to recover my great shape, and rigorous exercise is the major ingredient in the regime. My 8-pack has begun to come out again while my paunch is fast disappearing, in just two weeks.
