Burn Calories Not Pride

i'm curious what the average length of time is for ramping up one's endurance. is it just too varied to be a meaningful number? or is there some formula that applies to most people? i wonder. there's a distinctly different endurance requirement for each workout in the Melt It Off with Mitch series. anyone can lunge and squat their way through the 10 minute primer. but there just is no way to fake your way all the way through an hour-long aerobic workout, now is there? the High Calorie Melt™ Workout is one such workout that will burn calories, and singe your pride if you're not up to snuff. So, diligence, people - slow and steady wins the race to enduring all the way through one of these long workouts - it doesn't happen overnight. Be patient with yourself.

High Calorie Melt Workout - Favorite?!

tell me, tell me - what's your favorite workout in the Melt It Off with Mitch series of videos. the 3 Day Melt Kickstart is so encouraging, right? who doesn't like to see results right away?! but how about the Sizzlin' Abs workout or the High Calorie Melt workout - ass-kickin' exercising there. i've never worked so hard, i don't think.

Spring Cardio Workout

alright. even though i'm still rolling to work late everyday, it isn't the fault of daylight savings anymore. NOW, i want to stay outside all the time. i've been taking my dog for a walk every morning and evening (something i do not do when there's snow on the ground), which is definitely crowding into my 3 Day Melt/Melt It Off With Mitch time. i'm relishing every scrap of sunshine today because it's supposed to freeze up again tomorrow night. i'll no doubt be back to mitch and his killer g-ball, as snow or rain are going to turn the fields soggy - a mudbath for pooch. i suppose most people in a 4-season clime change their workout weapon at least a couple times a year. mitch gaylord is my fitness trainer all winter, for sure. i mean, what can beat his Cardio Burn and Sculpt Workout?

Evening Exercise

daylight savings time is not my favorite concept. at least not now that i live in a wintery place. snow boots and light-till-late don't mix, as far as i'm concerned. i wonder, has the time shift affected your workout schedule? i prefer exercise in the morning, and i know that some of the melt it off workouts are short, but now that it's dark forever in the a.m. again, there's no way i'm exercising in the morning... not for a while. it's evenings for exercise now.

Melt It Off - What You Get

in case you need a little help on the organizational side of things, mitch gaylord's "melt it off" program might just have the hand-holding tools you're looking for. it isn't just dvds. there's also the g-ball (it'll really kick your butt, btw) plus low-fat recipes and meal plans, a rotation calendar, journal and lots of inspiration. the "3 day melt" gets you off to a great start.

3 Day Melt Better Than Yoga

i went to this yoga class a few days ago and totally strained my back. i never have back issues, but it really bothered me at bedtime for a couple of nights. not to slam yoga, but i've never felt like that when doing the 3 day melt / melt it off with mitch. sore muscles, yes, but never that sort of strain before. ugh!

G-Ball

that G-Ball is amazing. it leverages your core action to really heat things up. i think that because you have to hold onto it, consciously - because, let's face it, it could fly off and break your favorite lamp or your roommate's nose - really amps up its effectiveness. i could be wrong, but i think it activates more muscles throughout your arms that way. what do you think?
