trimming up for summer


Question Posted Monday July 14 2008, 8:22 am



Hi everyone,

Anyone who has ever lost weight succesfully is welcome to answer this, though if anyone has specialised knowledge,I'd find that especially helpful. Basically, there's a wedding in three weeks that I want to trim up for-I want to lose about 6lb, and also to tone up a bit.At the moment, I'm doing around 40 sit ups a day(20 in the morning, 20 in the evening) and gradually building the number up (to maybe about 70 a day?) What sounds good?) I want to tone up stomach, thigs and upper arms(I'm also following a diet plan).
Any tips and advice, both general and body -part - specific would be very helpful! Thanks in advance!

You need to burn calories to lose weight and reduce food intake. Running is good or any other aerobic activity. Up the intensity of your workouts (Do situps to failure each time instead of stopping at a fixed number. Alternate with leg raises to failure (keep your lower back down tight to the floor to avoid strain) Do that three times in a day and then let the abs rest 24 hrs and work a different part the next day! Do squat thrusts or anything that gets your heart rate up for several minutes. Swimming is good as is jogging.
