What exercise/workout DVDs can I buy for the first time?

Wednesday, April 28th, 2010

I’d just like a simple aerobics type workout that will help myslim down and lose weight. I’m desperate.

i bought an exercise ball and it came with a free dvd it is good fun and i now use it with out the dvd and jsut roll and bounce and bend on the balance on the ball to music it is good!

At the gym, is a leg press a good enough exercise for the hamstring muscle group?

Wednesday, April 28th, 2010

I know that it’s already a great exercise for the Quadriceps.

I concur with Gary.

I was looking for a muli-joint exercise, working opposing muscles to squats. I came up with hanging from a Roman chair, holding a dumbbell b/n my feet and lifting by flexing hips and knees. Or lying on the floor with a cable in the lowest position, pull on it with your feet in the same way.

The back extension bench, where your thighs brace against the pad and your heels brace against a lower bar, and you lift your back uses your glutes and I think works the hamstrings isometrically (looks like a Romanian deadlift at an angle).

I’m to tall to use my leg extension on my home gym, What can I do about it?

Wednesday, April 28th, 2010

I just bought a a Marcy Platinum home gym and I can’t use the leg extension becuase I’m to tall. I’m aware that I’m supposed to align my ankels with the padded rolls but when I sit down and put my legs to the pads it comes up to me shins(I’m only 6′1) making it hard to use and very eneffective. I’m new to the workout scene and I have had a slinder body most of my life it’s a genetic thing my dad was tall and skinny to. Just wondering if there is an accesory out there to buy for my situation? or is there any suggestions on what I should do?
