I'm bumping this thread,,, well, because lately I've been thinking about this..

Ok think about this.. no, I mean it,, dont' just close the thread and think it's not important.. because well, frankly it is important!!!

I've come up with a theory..

We all remember that Dr. A said.. "the one food that you crave most, is usually the one food that you have either formed an intolerance too (enhance slows weight loss)... or the one food that gets you in trouble with your weight loss... right?? You know, like chocolate.. or, in some more recent cases,, peanut butter ..

Ok,, well, IMO, it stands to reason, that this applies to other areas of our life.. If we attribute the opposite of this statement to food,, then we can easily come up with a statement that says,, "the one food that you absolutely do not crave,,, is probably the one food that will do you most good, with weight loss"... say "brussel sprouts".. **although that doesn't work for me, because I love them,, but at the same time, they are also goiterogens,, and I should avoid them,, which would go back to what Dr. A originally said****


Ok,, but what if we applied this to exercise..

The workouts that we like to do,,, well, we like to do them because they are EASY!!!!,, really think about this.. if it wasn't for us trying to find the easy way out, to get our exercise,, then we wouldn't have chosen the things that we are doing.. I can easily apply this to myself.. I love to swim,, I can do it all day long.. I love to ride my bike,, I can do it all day long too... weight lifting is a breeze,, even when I push it up to heavy heavy weights,, and well, raquetball, dancing, yoga, pilates, kickboxing, TaiChi, Shotokan and everything else,,, after doing it the first couple times,, it was like I was sleeping and never thought twice about it... the reason??? it was easy,, so I did it consistently...

Now, I'm not saying, that you should ditch any of the above exercises.. I certainly won't, because I know each one has merit, in their own existance.. But what I am saying,, that after remembering this article,, and the body type thing.. I remembered my reaction to it telling me that runners are usually of my body type.. I thought at the time.. NO WAY, NO HOW, IT AIN'T GONNA HAPPEN!!!

So, why did I react that way?? The article is very clear in what it was telling me about my abilities to build muslce,, and where my benefits and downfalls would be.. but still I rejected even the thought of running..

WHY??? BECAUSE IT'S FREAKING HARD!!! THAT'S WHY..

At the same time,, I think I've learned a valuable lesson.. The harder it is,, the better it should be for my body..

Belly fat, is what I contend with.. after two babies,, 7 pregnancies, and 6 abdominal surgeries,, on my short little waist.. I still have belly fat that none of the previous exercises, seemed to do anything about.. I have clear muscle under there,, but you can't see them, unless I've just worked out and am tensing them.. Sure, you can see my ribs,, and a hint of hip bone.. but there is still the fat..

and what gets rid of belly fat???

Intense cardio!!!

So, people, take into consideration... Where is your fat predisposed to heading??? What body type are you??? And... What does this article say about the exercises best suited for results for your body??

My hypothesis would be: The exercise that is most recommended for your body, will be the most likely exercise that you are repulsed
by...

So, in effect,, that's probably the one you need to be doing..
