Avatar f tn Tie an elastic band around your ankles such as an exercise band or rubber tubing. Make sure there is resistance with your feet hip-width apart. Start with low resistance and progressively work your way up to heavier resistance. Stand with your hands on your hips and feet hip-width apart. Bend your knees 45 degrees. Keep your knees directly over your ankles. Step out with your right foot. Pause. Step in with your left foot, returning your feet to hip-width. Continue for 20 steps.
1285110 tn?1420147378 I have the Wii Active Personal Trainer which comes with a resistance band that kinda reminds me of a skipping rope.... I was thinking that this summer while we are camping/vacationing I could get some kind of similar band to take along. Anyways, the point of this comment is that they do all sorts of arm exercises with it - bicep curls, lateral bicep curls, etc. If you could get a band of some sort like that it would be easy enough to do without the system as well.
Avatar n tn t lose weight when I was hyperthyroid due to insulin resistance. I already had insulin resistance and this condition worsened to pre diabetes once I was hyperthyroid. I only started to lose weight since reversing my insulin resistance.
Avatar f tn You can try doing some weights or resistance band exercises, but if you're losing weight, that might just be something you will have to put up with. Some of just get saggy skin when we lose weight. Check out YouTube for upper body exercises using weights.
649848 tn?1534633700 Having recently been diagnosed with metabolic syndrome/insulin resistance, I’ve realized that I have to stay on a low glycemic diet, in order to keep my blood sugar levels in check. This not only means I have to eat more lean protein and veggies/fruits, but it means that by eating different foods, I’m also eating less calories. I also have to pay particular attention to the amount of sodium I consume, because I do have issues with fluid retention.
Avatar f tn Hi! I need some ideas on different resistance training I can do at home? Trying something new so any ideas are welcome! Thanks!
Avatar f tn Have you tried poi spinning? Sock poi are pretty inexpensive (you can even make them yourself) and just standing and practicing spins will get your heart rate going in a short amount of time, and there are ton of moves you can do with them so boredom isn't much of an issue.
1013194 tn?1296459481 In order to see some kind of change or weight loss, you would have to do at least 35-40 minutes of cardio at least 3 times a week. My advice would be to start off slow and gradually increase the amount of time and resistance. You don't have to do this the first few times you work out but the more you do it, the more your stamina will increase and the longer you will be able to stay on the machine.
Avatar f tn ) Since you are young I would recommend ballet type toning exercise for resistance training. I recommend the Lotte Berk Method these exercise tone and streamline and condition your muscles; improve posture; and will aid in helping you grow a few more inches. You can search for it on Amazon or Ebay. Here is the link on amazon.com: http://www.amazon.com/Lotte-Berk-Method-Beginners/dp/B0014FAIMA/ref=wl_it_dp_o_pC_nS_nC?
Avatar f tn t have to run or job, just go at a good brisk clip. If you carry a resistance band, you can work your arms, shoulders, back all at the same time. Yoga is also good for toning, tightening. Google it and you'll get a ton of videos that you can watch for free. The best yoga dvd I've seen is "Biggest Loser - Yoga for Weight Loss"........ you lose weight and tone/tighten muscles as the same time. I found mine at a department store for about $10.
Avatar n tn Slowly return to the starting position and repeat. A resistance loop is a large, flat rubber band that slides over your legs. With the resistance loop, sit in a chair and slide the loop up to your thighs and flatten it. Move your legs out to your sides as far as possible. Move your legs back together and repeat. Ball Squat Pulses Place a physioball against the wall with your back against it. This will trap the ball against the wall and your back. Place your feet shoulder-width apart.
1159737 tn?1286517257 i used to exercise everyday about two years ago - hurt my back and knee and quit. Within that time is when my head really started to hurt, and the tiredness, so I never really got back into it. A couple of months ago I tried to start back in and my head started pounding - which is why I went to the Dr and told them whatever they thought was wrong - got the MRI - Dx w/ CM - here I am. So anyway, since finding out it is not a blood vessel about to burst or anything, I tried to exercise yesterday.
7216845 tn?1389269243 I guess I should have been more specific with my question and what I meant by medical insurance to lose weight. I was referring to weight loss surgery and liposuction. But I have tried dieting and I have a gym membership with personal trainer, yet nothing is happening; I'm showing no progress.
Avatar f tn If you are type 2, insulin resistance is considered key part of the problem (though insulin resistance can also happening in Type 1). To address insulin resistance you can:- 1. Lose excess weight if you are overweight 2. Adopt a low carb or even a ketogenic diet (be sure to get enough protein and don't overdo the fats) 3. Regular vigorous physical exercise 4. Insulin sensitizing drug such as metformin.
Avatar f tn My son is 5 1/2 and is in kindergarten. He is the worst child in class. So bad he cant even sit at the table with the rest of the kids. He has to have his own desk. He is ALWAYS crying when he doesnt get his way or a kid runs into him by mistake. He NEVER listens to anything you have to say and is ALWAYS shouting out in class. In the mornings he has to go sit in the office after getting off the bus because he always said the it was to noisy in the gym and it hurt his ears.
Avatar f tn Face the wall holding onto the band. Pull your elbows the opposite direction, keeping your back really straight. This exercise really helps the shoulder muscle pain and tension. I have a lot of joint pain w/ lupus, so exercising really hurts my joints. I haven't tried swimming, but that is the type of exercising my rhemy suggest.
Avatar n tn At the gym, use the cable pulleys for resistance, but at home, use a circular resistance band that can loop around your ankle and anchor to a stable object in front of you. Stand with your feet at hip-width, then bend the banded leg at the knee, raising your foot behind you toward your buttocks. Thighs and hips remain stationary throughout the movement, with back straight.
Avatar f tn They are mostly cardio if you work at low resistance and move quickly; they are mostly resistance training if you put the resistance up very high in which case you will have to go much more slowly. In other words, these machines are not comparable -- they focus on very different exercises both of which are quite good but the intensity of which depends on how long you do it for and how much resistance you use. And don't forget to consider which exercise seems fun to you.
649848 tn?1534633700 Weights can be something as simple as a can of veggies or a bottle of water. A resistance band can be a towel. In addition, as we all know, walking is very beneficial, even if it's only a few laps around the dining room or the back yard to start with. The thing is to move, breathe right and concentrate on your balance, gradually adding more moves as the muscles stretch and get stronger.
Avatar f tn Your main problem probably isn't exercise, it's your diet -- fat in the belly and thighs suggests you're eating too much simple carbohydrate, such as sugar, white flour, and the like. When we consume a diet that is too high in foods that metabolize quickly into sugar, it usually stores as fat in the belly area first. As for exercise, any exercise will help, as it will increase your energy output and burn off more of what you're eating.
