Targeted Body Toning Exercises for a Hot Body
The key to effective & permanent body toning lies within the definition of the word itself. In short, it means to form, reshape and modify the composition of the body that you currently have. The main focus being on fat-reduction/skin tightening and muscle firming (maybe even a little bit of muscle building). Unfortunately, there are many myths and mis-perceptions that put a more confusing, and often times harmful, meaning behind the simple concept of body toning.
Print ads, radio advertisements and television commercials trying to push the latest fitness gizmos, spas selling body-wrap treatments, hardcore personal trainers delivering painful & time consuming 'weights and machines' type exercise programs and even supplement companies marketing body toning pills are all trying to tap into the emotional pain zones in people of all ages, body types and fitness levels to make more sales without delivering the desired results as safely as possible with as little cost as possible.
In speaking of cost, I not only speak of financial loss but also the loss of one's self confidence and trust in others who are supposed to be helping and not taking unfair advantage of people in desperate or uncertain circumstances. When hopes are dashed by continuous failure, the spirit tends to get worn down.
But let not your hopes be crushed here because effective, safe and permanent body toning can in fact be achieved without a health club membership, without expensive visits to a 'skin-wrapping' clinic, without fraudulent or harmful 'diet' supplements and, most of all, without painful and time consuming workout sessions.
As a career fitness pro and trainer I've had the great opportunity to work with many people coming from different life situations, physical abilities, fitness levels, and most importantly, emotional starting points. This history of experience has taught me what the books can't teach.
As each brought their own definition of body toning into the evaluation process it helped me realize that all people have their own personal definition of what it would mean for them to be in great physical condition. Some want to lose weight while getting firmer and stronger. Some want to maintain weight and tone up with shapelier, curvier muscles. Some want to build up certain body areas, such as the butt and thighs or core and shoulders and add a little bit of healthy body weight in the process.
What most people do not understand is the method by which their goals can be achieved is quite realistic and surprisingly simple as compared to what they previously thought they knew or had been told. Weights, machines and 'bodybuilder' type workouts are not for everyone. This type of fitness routine is not realistic for most people - let alone busy people with careers and/or families. Being young and single may allow for this consuming, almost obsessed, type of lifestyle. But as we develop careers and grow our families, spending 2 hours in the gym every day is not a realistic or healthy routine.
By utilizing a wide choice of body toning exercises with some simple fitness tools (mat, exercise ball, step), a you can make consistent progress in your specific fitness and body toning goals. Form, tempo, sequence and progression are all underutilized variables in the workout routines of many fitness seekers. By using these misunderstood variables and crafting a body toning program that can be done literally anywhere and anytime, (such as at home when the kids are asleep or before getting ready for work) most of the excuses and obstacles that would prevent long term fitness success are erased.
By replacing your past failures, mis-perceptions, excuses and obstacles with proper information, proven fitness principles and targeted exercises you have cleared a path pointing directly at your body toning success and long term fitness of the mind, body and spirit.
