's Wednesday workout

[Guest guest]

Since I am still doing a low impact/recovery week, today I decided to try another virgin from my pile. It is called Moving through menopause with Kathy . I don't know why I bought it, the woman in my family don't seem to ever go thru menopause really, but anyways I bought it. It is not just a workout DVD. There seems to be a lot of good information for women that are of an age to be going through it or about to go thru menopause. the workouts themselves are very easy. There is a cardio workout, a strength workout and a yoga workout. On the cover it says they are 20 minutes each so I thought I would do all 3 of them this morning, but they seemed to run a little longer and I didn't get the yoga part in. I will do it tomorrow night maybe after work. The strength portion has kegel exercises to help with incontincence and help improve your sex life. I don't have either one of those problems now (except that it is hard to have a sex life when your husband is in another country) but hey, they were in the workout so I did them. LOL The informational part has several doctors speaking and goes over the problems associated with menopause and also ways to get thru it. they discuss some herbal remedies such as ginko biloba, st johns wort, kava kava, etc. There is one part where Kathy says that we will all get thru menopause and that no one ever died from hot flashes or a dry vagina (she really did say that). I think there may also be a book that goes along with this, but I don't have that. If you want the information, this is a good DVD, but like I said, the workout is not much of a workout at all. Well, there you have it. I am off to read my 366 email messages now. Good nite all.
