Imagood1, you are really on the ball! As much exercises as you are doing, you must be really good at this multi-tasking to get it all done.

Must be a real clincher, LOL!

In tight leather pants, clinch while you walk, stand up, or sit down.
Makes you look!

Hey Boonie -- my exercises don't take that long....I start within a half hour of getting up (I have to have my coffee first, but most days my husband's lunches are in the freezer in the basement, so I start my stair stepping then, and except for the walking, most days I have them all done within an hour. Since the weather is improving the past couple days we go walking before 11:00 a.m. Yesterday we had to walk faster than normal to get out and back before the rain started (my 80 year old mother and 1 year old dog walking with me). We were barely home 10 minutes before it started pouring, so it's a good thing we stepped it up!!

I'm clinching while I type...lol (I clinch alot because I have been known to sit too much!!)

It helps that I don't work anymore and can enjoy exercising at my own

It's easier to work a laptop's scroll pad
while surfing in bed with it on your thighs
if you clinch...

Do you suppose gus would be more nervous aound those of us clinching, or around the ones doing pelvic floor workouts...? LOL. Both workouts simultaneously is likely to be a useful endeavor. Now that is too graphic to post a picture.

Has anyone ever tried using those Kegel exercise things they sell in junk books? I'm having a lot of problems with my bladder, I even had to quit the water challenge because of it, and I'm wondering if I should bother buying one or not. I do squeeze a ball between my knees but it doesn't seem to make a difference.

Default Re: Clinching 2009: Exercise Challenge (misplaced)

I'm with y'all! I'm sittin' in my computer chair doing mine now. Whew, it hurts already! LOL

I haven't done any exercising in a long time. I have plantar fasciitis in both of my feet. I have rotator cuff problems in my right shoulder and neck problems which I'm seeing a doc for now. I reckon being a barber for 30 yrs is finally taking it's toll on me. Anyway, I need exercises I can do without using my feet/neck/shoulder. Sad, huh? I miss walking, I always LOVED to walk and lost weight quickly when I did walk. Hopefully, getting some of this weight off will help my foots!

For Kegals, I just squeeze like I'm trying not to pee. I don't think I need anything for that!

Smile Re: Clinching 2009: Exercise Challenge (misplaced)

Keep your hopes up, 2fat2 - my plantar faciitis went away about 40lbs ago, came back during a weight relapse, and went away again, not to return since the regain was lost.

Speaking of a good Kegel exercise, guaranteed to work the right muscles - take a (((almost too long)) bus ride, BYO extra water, drink and then hold it!

Now it's time for a screen cleaning break - here's the ABSOLUTELY BEST helper (and cutest) for the part you can't reach (inside your monitor)!!
(((click!!!)))
