I tried for 10 years to get where I was able to in 10 weeks. I know I am tighter physically, but I am healthier too. I wanted when I had questions. That's the best part. It isn't simply knowing what exercise to do, but HOW to do it.
Little tweaks make all the difference.
Next time you do leg curls, point your toes out about a inch away from the body and then tell me it isn't a completely different exercise all of a sudden. Do calf raises on the outside of your foot but do not twist the ankles like a pigeon. You will see. For example, I was just able to do 10 straight pull-ups. No one thought it would be possible and now that I have lost 10 pounds, I can see my abs.
