You already know...Im in!!

Mikko · 06-02-2008, 08:14 AM

I'm in.

Even though I am not losing a ton of inches, I can tell that my muscles are getting stronger and I am more flexible. Also, I actually enjoy doing it and I hate exercise!

onaisland · 06-02-2008, 08:19 AM

1 hr 10/10 done.

turtlegirl115 · 06-02-2008, 08:26 AM

I'll commit to 10 hours this month.

gibster · 06-02-2008, 08:35 AM

It's June! I'm in.....and I'm pledging to do 12 hours this month.

CindyC923 · 06-02-2008, 09:25 AM

Hi,

I plan on 12 hrs of Callanetics in June.
I completed 1 hr of 10/10 & SC combo yesterday.

What I like about this type of exercise compared to weights is that I don't feel drained after Callanetics, I always feel good after, better than before I did my workout. I do feel challenged during the workout but no exhaustion after. I am seeing some positive changes in my lower body too, which has been very stubborn to change. So glad I tried Callanetics.

Cindy

sunrise lady · 06-02-2008, 10:01 AM

I'll be happy if I do 8 hours, but I'm aiming for at least 10!

NenaP · 06-02-2008, 10:15 AM

1 Hour of Super C down!

Side note here: On my website i have changed the template, i would like people's feedback about whatever or not they like the most current one, or the sea-green circles i was using before.

schrovet · 06-02-2008, 12:14 PM

I did my first hour for June today. It was my 20th hour total. My legs are definately starting to change for the better.

novamc · 06-02-2008, 12:36 PM

I'm in for 12 hours in June. I have completed five and while I have lost no inches, I feel like I am tightening up and I am also noticing everything, thights, knees, bum and boob, shifting upward! Callenetics trumps gravity!

Honestly I feel the wood makes me think of awall or table, I really prefer the nice fluffy bubbles!

aurie · 06-02-2008, 02:03 PM

Hey everyone! I'm new to this board but have read the callanetics thread for a while. You're all a great motivation to me at the moment so well done!
One question:

I'm new to callanetics, and have done 7 hours so far, but don't see any results, even though i feel them. Also my waist looks much poochier, even though i know it's just the way the muscles pull in at first. But I was wondering how long does it take for the waist to flatten?
Thanks a lot!

napbella · 06-02-2008, 02:33 PM

I'm in. I so sucked at being diligent last month

I love reading this thread but it's so easy to let it slide. I need accountability help yall! Somebody jack me up and call me out. I need to do at 12 hours this month! I'm a retired Navy Chief but I don't wanna look like it. Help!

SummerSue · 06-02-2008, 03:09 PM

Well, I'm in for sure! I'm just going to continue to do 10 in 10 or Evolution a few times a week, and start to work in Supercallanetics if I'm ready.

One hour 10 in 10 done today.

NenaP · 06-02-2008, 03:53 PM

Got my video and just finished my 1st hour,
OMG, i feel like jello....i could barley walk,

I am very un-flexible and had some trouble with a few exercises but it still felt like it was working, How long until i start being more flexible? and what hour were you able to complete all the reps??

Thanks!

Salamander · 06-02-2008, 05:22 PM

I am having fabulous

results with Callanetics (27 hours) and running.... maybe TOO good...

My trouble spot was always the abdomen. I am getting great results, it is almost flat and I'm seeing definition. What's suprising is how much my butt and hips have shrunk! I never thought I had a large rear end, it seemed like a nice size and had a cute shape... but now all of my pants are baggy, my undies are too big, and my butt seems to be deflating!

It was such a thrill to purchase a very expensive pair of jeans in a size 25, don't get me wrong!

But now I'm thinking that I need to start doing squats and lunges with weights again to put some shape into the backside.

Anyone else experience this?

Sally

Alley · 06-02-2008, 05:40 PM

I am in!!!
My goal for June is 10 hrs.
One hour done 10/10

ThyckeCutie · 06-02-2008, 06:02 PM

1hr of Super Callan

buckeyechic · 06-02-2008, 06:45 PM

I'm in as well. I can't remember the last time I was faithful to Callanetics.

Anyway, I just completed a portion of Evolutions. I just received the DVD and was anxious to try it. WOW! It's so different, and I'm having a hard time with the pelvic floor and keeping it engaged. Anyone else used to Evolutions yet, and would you recommend I alternate it between regular 10 in 10?

duece49424 · 06-02-2008, 08:10 PM

I want to be in, but have no idea what this is! How crazy am I?? But sounds great, so, I am reading and reading trying to figure out where to get the dvd, tape, or whatever. I feel so fat, and, I don't look in very good shape like the rest of you. Is anyone on this thread overweight, or is this just for the people who are where they want their weight to be? I have not exercised for so long, and feel terrible. Trying to get into lc and whatever i can do to help my body. Any suggestions?

ummrashid · 06-02-2008, 09:04 PM

Im in, I kind of lost track of the May thread but Im here.
1 hour of 10 in 10 completed yesterday.
My goal is 15 hours for june,

I sure hope we're not deflating there. I just assumed I was getting tighter all over.

Don't want to lose the bootay

Mimosa23 · 06-03-2008, 01:40 AM

Hi all!
I needed a new challenge to motivate me, and you guys are really inspiring!!!
Can I join in?
I did some callanetics in the past, and have just found my 10 in 10 book again, so I'm dusting it off and will try for 13 hours for this month...
