Missing Exercise

I am one of those people who always hated the idea of running or any other obvious form of exercise. Lets just say that certain body parts made it uncomfortable and embarrassing. I have very little will power to go on a diet so I just had to accept that I was not going to lose weight anytime soon.

Then randomly when I was checking my email I came across an article for Kettlebells. It said that they are the best and most efficient way to lose weight. I decided to give it a go as other forms of weight loss were proving elusive. It cost £50.00 for all the extras including a workout DVD.

I started slowly first, didn't want to overdo it, and boy did I feel it the next day! I did enjoy it though. I was able to do the whole series of exercises in the privacy of my own room so didn't need to worry about who saw me. My usual weekly work out would be 1 hour on Saturday and 20 minutes on Wednesdays. I started to lose weight after three weeks and it kept slowly coming off. It also builds muscle so every time you exercise you are burning more and more calories. I had to stop just before my two week holiday and I still lost weight.

I miss it though, I need to get back into it. It helped my aching hips and knees and made me feel ten time better.
