Re: Life Lift with Callanetics

[Guest guest]

I have done it with Callanetics. I like it that way.

How have you organized your day? I ask this because those people who

actually schedule LifeLift breaths into the day, meals and snacks into the

day, supplements into the day, water into the day, etc. actually achieve

their goals faster than those who don't. All of these play a role in the

whole picture.

Like I said, I just got the videos last night so today was my first

whole day with LL.

This was today.

Wake up, do my LL workout #2, get ready, eat breakfast, take my

vitamin, drive to work and do a portion of the commuter CD, drink

water at work, took a quick walk around work (aprox 1/4 mile), more

water, listened to more of the commuter CD going to lunch, had lunch

at home, more commuter CD coming back from lunch, water and

(estimated from here on out) another quick walk around work, water,

leave work and finish commuter CD (obviously I live close to work),

go on walk with neighbor, eat dinner, drink water and go to sleep.

How do I look?

I am not a snack person so I don't have any of them listed. I just

eat my 3 meals a day. My new goal is to get all of my water in. I

have been better about it lately, but since I am starting this new

program I figure I'll go all out.

Oh, and about the Callanetics, do you do it to a video, or just do

some of the moves. Would I do the breath just before I start the

movement, and then pause when I need to take another breath?

Thanks

Callanetics are exercises named after their creator Callan Pickney.

She had a bad back and created exercises that became popular back in

the 80s that would alleviate her pain and reshape her body with no

impact. The exercises isolate a muscle and move it with miniscule

movements. I'm talking like a 1/4 " each time with 100 reps. After

only 7 sessions (1 hour each) I had already lost a total of 5 " . If

you read the reviews on amazon.com and you can get a good idea. Also

on the following review, it gives you a LOT of info.

Hi ,

I'm sorry about the loss of your baby.

I do LL breaths with quite a few different kinds of exercise. I do them

with Pilates, walking tapes, and all types leg lifts, sit ups, etc. etc.

etc. LL enhances other types of exercise and I'm sure that it would be

great with callanetics.

I've tried Body Flex (BF), Oxycise (O), and Life Lift (LL). BF worked for

me but caused problems with my asthma. O gave me a severe sore throat and

LL is wonderful!!!!!!! I've lost 30 lbs. plus many inches with LL and my

asthma is better. I've gone from a size 18 to sizes varying from a 4/6 to

a 14 and my 14's are baggy. LL is very gentle, energizing, and

effective!!!!! You'll love it!!!!!

Take care!!!

Love, Liz

Oooo, I had not even thought of doing LL with my Walk Away the Pounds

videos. Hmm I've never done a LL breath while walking. Do you just

breath the LL way instead of normally for a few minutes?

Thank you for your concern also.

Hi ,

I do LL breaths while I'm walking just one after another after another

etc. etc.

Today I did 100 LL breaths while doing the Walk Away the Pounds 2 mile

tape.

Love, Liz

Hi and all -

I'm a new member here, and new with LL breathing, so it's nice to

have something to contribute right away! After reading the thread on

this board, I found a couple of Callanetics tapes on eBay and also on

half.com. Just write 'Callanetics' in the search box.

I used to do Callanetics years ago but gave my tapes away in a

tidying purge. They are hard to find now, so it was fun to find some

for discounted prices! I'm looking forward to the combination for

faster results on my lower body (aaargh).

Peace and Blessings,

Noelle

I'll have to try that. Thanks!

I would recommend the original Callanetics tape for people who are

learning. That is the most descriptive and has all different parts

of your body to work on. It is in a blue box. It lasts for an

hour, but the body sections are separated so you could do one part

of your body a day.

They sell them brand new at amazon.com and on ebay as well. You

might want to check at garage sales or thrift stores because you

could find them for $1. I know I did, of course AFTER I had already

purchased it brand new for $9.99 at amazon.

Good luck!
