Yoga Online with Paula - Yoga - AOL Message Boards

Hello Everyone,

My name is Paula and I am a Registered Yoga Teacher. I am very pleased to be involved with a brand new company which allows me to bring my Yoga classes to you online. The company is called FABS Cyberfitness. FABS, which stands for Fitness and Aerobic Broadband Services, is a state of the art company, streaming club quality videos to you at home or work. You can even run a cable from you desktop or laptop, and view the videos on your television. If Yoga is not your fitness solution of choice, you can choose from an array of fitness videos, including Pilates, Ball, Muscle, Step, Hip Hop, Personal Training... and so on. The best part is, FABS Cyberfitness is adding 7-15 videos each month, so you will never be board with the same "old" workout. Please take a few minutes to look at this site, and view the sample videos. I look forward to sharing my Yoga practice with you.

Sorting out the fitness trends and gimmicks

Where does one start? I watch ads on TV that promise to give you a six pack in a few months by using their ab machine. Companies that promise weight loss by doing their diet, using their pills, or creams, or machines....blah blah blah. All the--for lack of a better word--crap, out there is not the way to get to the promised land so save your self the money.

If you want to reach your health and fitness goals the only way that it is going to happen is through work and perseverance. First, if your goal is weight loss, muscle toning or building then your nutrition is paramount. Educate your self on how to read a food label, how our bodies store fat, build muscle and how many calories your body actually needs. Second, challenge your body by pushing it out side your comfort zone. That is all there is to it!

So why do they keep coming out with all these gimmicks? Because people keep buying them!! We want the quick fix, instant results with as little effort as possible. Health and fitness is not something that should be done for a few months until you reach a predetermined goal--its great if you do, but it is something that should be for life. You only get one body!

Does this mean I don't recommend my company FABS? Hell no--I highly recommend it, we have all the tools to teach you how to get results, but you have to want to get them and not be afraid to put in the effort!

Making Exercise a Habit

Do I love to exercise? I am not going try and lie to you--no not really! When I am actually, physically going through the motions of a workout, whether doing chin-ups or out for a run, I am not saying to my self; "self, this is a hell of a lot of fun". Yet I continue to do it, as I have for years, and will continue to do it for the rest of my life. Why? Because, I love the way it makes me feel afterwards!
The best way I can explain it is that it is like brushing your teeth. I don't necessarily like, or dislike bruthshing my teeth, but they sure feel great when I'm done. And even more important if I don't brush my mouth feels gross! In fact, in that moment I can't wait to brush my teeth.
Working out is pretty much the same thing. You need to get to a point where you have to do it because, the alternative of not doing it feels much worse than a bit of sweat and some sore muscles.
If you can make it past the first 3 or 4 months then it will start to become a habit, and a habit that is hard to break. Now, how do you get past the first 3 or 4 months?...I will talk about that another day.
