I Love to Exercise

[c=#7700B2]I have seen a lot of topics about getting more fit and what exercises to do to achieve whatever goal and so I thought I would share this..
I have always been pretty slim I guess you could say but always exercised because I want to be more comfortable in my own body..
I have tried so many things to get results I want and nothing really worked out for me.. anyway about a month and a half ago I found two youtube channels with two amazing women who have free fitness videos for all areas of your body and I can honestly say that after doing several videos of theirs daily I have never actually seen results like this.. It is crazy how good those exercise videos work. I have mostly been doing the abs, legs and butt exercises and ohh god you feel it after it is done but in a really good way..

haha I get that this comes off sounding like a corny sponsorship or some crap but I just wanted to share their pages since people ask about exercises here a lot and well from my own experience these videos help

so if interested you should check out
"Emi Wong" and "Chloe Ting" on youtube[/c]

@PlumBerries it helps ... but being fit also ( to me anyway) means being strong . I can take care of myself via martial arts ... which gives me confidence

@PlumBerries I kick box and take Jiu Jitsu . It helps me vent PTSD rage , but it also saved me

[c=#7700B2]I remember you telling me about it now (sorry I have a horrid memory).. I am really glad to hear you have found something that helps you so much..

exercise in general does it for me with mostly my anxiety[/c]

@PlumBerries with a bow to @TexChik
My screenname is less due to Lao Tzu being the Taoist philosopher (although I read him and can toss around a number of his sayings) than his being the unofficial patron saint of martial arts (why you see yin/yang symbol on so many uniforms) along with Bodhidharma.
I took up kung fu some years back and pursue it as much for fitness as for "self-defense". Ms Chik is right about its mental benefits as well. Any martial art, with some side work on strength training and running, contributes to overall fitness.
Your mentioning anxiety, I think you should look into it. It can also provide moving meditation opportunities.
Best to you both. "With every breath, change is possible."
