! I think you should post your answer on the April challenge, there you'll find some of the teachers who will give you a more qualified answer. It's very strange that after 30 hours done in such a short period you haven't seen any results. It can depend on many things, from your form to how toned your muscle were before starting: the more toned the quicker the results. In my experience, as my abs were in good form before starting Callanetics, after 10 hours I had lost almost 2 inches in my waist, while I had to do more than 40 hours before losing an inch in my hips. My results improved since I bought Evolution and tried to incorporate all the concepts in my workout. Sometimes changes have occured but as we look in the wrong place we don't see them: take a pix of yourself, side, front and back.Next month do the same, and then compare, and you'll see firmer arms, higher bum, leaner legs or whatever Callanetics has done for you. Don't give up! Ellie |

I did this twenty years ago with good results. But, guess what! I'm now twenty years older!
May I ask how old you gals are ~~ especially those of you who are melting away. What does 10/10 mean, BTW? And what's the "other" thread you're referring to? From what I remember, Callanetics is similar to pilates. Am I correct? The program just makes SOOO much sense. I remember reading about the spine problems Callan had. EEK! I plan to visit here often. Please be patient with me. I'm an "old broad" compared to the rest of you, I suspect.

Heather2BThin,I'm 52, can I be an old broad, too?? 10/10 refers to the original Callanetics 10 Years Younger in 10 Hours tape. The "other thread" is the monthly challenge thread, April 2009 CALLANETICS Challenge, where most of the action takes place. You can post your Callanetics hours, your questions, or your comments; you can post regularly, pop in and out, or just lurk. Lots to learn over there with several certified Callanetics instructors posting. Don't let age discourage you -- remember, Callan's mother was in her mid-70s when she appeared in 10/10. I'm getting great results, if I do say so myself. See you over there... ![]() |

Sorry. Fan. Gotcha beat!

I'm in Benicia, by the way, in the northeast corner of the Bay Area. It's a looong way to Portland from here, and that's the closest Callanetics studio to me. So consider yourself lucky! |

Inspired!
Hi everyone,
Thank you so much for the inspiration I have been doing the 10/10 DVD since Sunday and have so far done 5 hours - I have seen small and positive results so far and am feeling even more inspired after looking at all of your wonderful pics and reading your stories - Thanks! I was also wandering if anyone had heard of or tried the South African Callanetics DVD's? Thanks marilyn |

I'm 41 but I know some women a bit older than me that have used the DVDs with success. I think her mom is actually in the 10/10 video. 10 years younger in 10 sessions is what 10/10 means. |

These photos are very inspiring! I'm feeling brave tonight. Here is my "work in progress." This is after 30 days of alternating 10/10 and an hour of brisk walking or biking each day, plus trying to eat healthier and just stay under 1600 calories each day. I am not there yet, but I think I'm headed in the right direction!

Thanks! I've lost 7 pounds so far. More losing inches than pounds, I think. The pictures don't show it, but my hiney is pulling up and in. Hubby said yesterday it is starting to look like an apple (I THINK he meant it as a compliment!) and I told him that was disappointing, as I was promised a PEACH!

You look like you have lost far more than 7lbs - you look great. Your tummy is tight and flat. Its true what they say Callanetics will make you look like you have lost double what you have! Keep it up hun. Well done! G x |

Question for those who recently purchased the DVD, does it give you Closed Captioning? I need CC or else I would have no idea what the person is instructing.

I did the 10/10 one -- not the super yet. Only thing you could do to make it less painful is to start out slowly with other exercises before beginning this program...work your way up to it. Good Luck to you!! |

Hi Karen -- The DVD's I have - 10/10 and Super do not have CC. The 10/10 dates back to 1985 and I think the Super was released in 2005. I looked around on the Net and could not find this feature noted anywhere -- sorry!!

With the exception of the new CallaneticsEvolution DVD, most of the old DVDs have a book that goes with them. Let me know if you need help in tracking any of the books down. |
