Attempting to lose weight...

I have been trying to lose weight for ages. I am dieting and exercising, but it is taking a long time, longer than expected. I don't know what the issue is - so I asked the person who knows everything, my wife!

She told me two things:
1. To look at everything that I am eating and make sure that I am not unknowingly eating things that are full of calories, and,
2. To look at new exercise techniques.

So - that is my plan. I will report back after I do these two things.

Report back

My crunchless abs are happening. Can't see them, but the pain at the beginning meant that they were working, and now I can feel them. I am closely watching my progress, which is made really easy by Leslee Bender and the Bender Ball Method tapes etc.

Wish me luck!

Crunches are killers

I have been telling everyone all about the Bender Ball, and since my last post I have had quite a few of my buddies reading my blog and asking to try the Bender Ball. There are three things you must know:

1. I hate crunches. They kill my back, and make my whole exercise routine impossible to bear. I would rather not do crunches and just leave my abs as they are.
2. The Bender Ball (Leslee Bender designed it) supports your back so that you do not have any of the back issues associated with crunches. What's even better is that the crunches you do with the ball are far more effective.
3. The Bender Ball Method is a whole system of exercising that gives you the info to work out properly - so you gain better crunches and also a whole fitness program.
