Secret to shaping up

[Caldil]

I've just had a look on ebay, they're going for £40-50 at the moment with 4 days left so I don't think that, with postage, they'll be much cheaper than buying it new. Especially when new it comes with a 5lb KB, even though I don't want that.

To make it a bit cheaper I got the six DVD set rather than the ten and bought a 5lb kettle bell separate. It was £40 for the DVD set which is the 6 week program and the bell is a Lonsdale one which cost me £5 in the sale x

I've got my kettlebell already, bought a 3-7kg adjustable one from Tesco for £15. I was using 2.5kg which was too light but 5kg was too big a jump so now I use 4kg. To be honest, that 6 set is enough for me at the moment anyway. I'm training as a teacher, I don't have time for more than those! Where did you get yours from? It's £50 plus £7.50 postage on Amazon

 

[Caldil]

I got them off amazon but it was in dec so guessing they must of been on offer. I will have a look about and let you know if I find any as I'm known for finding bargains. X

Just found this fitness quote, so apt:

"The difference between try and triumph is just a little umph" -!

Round 1 results time!!

Good morning Super Swingers Hope we are all well.

So, here we go then.

Weight loss -2lbs

Bust -1.5"
Waist - 1.5"
Hips - 1"
Left Arm - 0.5"
Right Arm - 1"
Left & Right thighs No change :cry:
Love handles -2.5"

Not sure how to feel about it really.... kind of pleased about the weight loss, considering the Xmas/New year period was during the 6 weeks, but as I haven't been eating very much I was hoping for more.

I am not sure if my thigh measurements were taken in the same place as originally, so a bit disappointed with the no-change but delighted with the 2.5 inch difference in my love handles

Will press on with Round 2 starting with Core tomorrow and will make a conscious effort to mix it up with some of the 10 minute fast abs/fat burn on my rest days

Have a fab day peeps

Think £35 is the cheapest but my friend gave me a copy - which I think she downloaded!

Tomorrow I'm starting week 6. I NEED to get my head in gear x

I've not done any swinging now for two days, my pain seems to have gone although now I have an all mighty pain in my back.

It's kind of at the side and back, hurts when I inhale and just aches all the time

Hope it isn't a kidney infection or something like that Nicole. Take it easy and rest up, drink plenty of fluids.

Hi

I'm not sure if its available on Virgin. Take a look at www.fitness.tv as it is possible to watch workouts on there (think you might have to pay something like £5 a month though).

Hi everyone,

I’ve not used kettlebells before but have been very interested in your posts here. I am thinking of trying them out.

I have a few questions, I’d appreciate it if someone could take the time to answer for me please.

1) I have seen an adjustable kettlebell in Tesco which goes from 3kg to 7kg – is this any good for a beginner?

2) Can anyone recommend a good but reasonably priced DVD. I have looked on Amazon but am baffled.

Fitness wise I run regularly but have not done any strength training since I got pregnant 2 years ago. Before that I used to do quite a lot of weight training if that has any bearing on anything.

Thanks in advance xx

I don't want to rest though I want to swing I can hear it upstairs calling my name!
