Csilla's first week was a great success, after 19 years of not exercising she did a really good job at the gym. We trained together once and she did interval training on the treadmill by herself twice.
She started drinking water and eating healthier than she did before. Even though we didn't see any changes in the scale (still weights 229 LB), but her pants are getting loser. This happens very often when somebody is overweight for many years the body holds on to the fat and needs a little more time to release it. Csilla's body is so dehydrated for not drinking water for years and from the over consumption of salt that will take more time to start to loose the water weight, which goes first when you change your diet and start to drink water and get rid of the salt. When this happens it's very important to not to get discouraged and give up, keep the positive attitude and keep going one.
This weeks workout is a little different then last weeks, some new exercises, boxing and jumping jacks to ad a little more intensity.
We have started with a dynamic balance exercise and to my amazement she had a really good balance, which I hardly ever see it on people first time.
Sg leg hip band
We started the work out with side lunges with biceps curls
seated chest press
Standing cable row
Swings
Step up with one arm over head press
and finished up with the Boxing
and jumping jacks
The interval training she did by herself was the following:
3 min warm up on 3
5 min run on 6 and 3 min walk on 3 X 2
20 body weight squats
5 min run on 6 and 3 min walk on 3 X 2
20 lunges
3 min walk on 3
Her biggest challenge is drinking water regularly and adding some fruits to her diet.
