beauty and lifestyle for women over 50
[28]
and if you're a woman over 50 click

[33]
be alerted every time there's a new
video today's video is all about toning
[38]
our arms and getting rid of the bat
wings and as we get older our metabolism
[43]
slows down so we tend to wake up one day
and everything seems to have gone soft
[48]
that's what happened to me I was
exercising every day but I was walking
[52]
fast walking get my heart rate up I was
doing it for an hour a day but I noticed
[58]
more and more as I got older everything
was getting a bit soft I was fit and
[63]
healthy but I wasn't in the way dude
[90]
yeah encouraged me to go along to the
gym and start working out my arms and my
[123]
legs and and all the other parts of my
body so I could tone them up because
[128]
resistance work as you're getting older
is so important because we tend to
[133]
our muscle mass when we don't use them
if muscles aren't used then the fibers
[139]
within the muscles are partially
replaced by fat and that's why we notice
[144]
everything gets a little bit soft so as
we're getting older and into our 50s we
[149]
have to work hard at getting some
strength because we need to keep our
[154]
bodies moving for a lot more years to
come yet so getting some strength in our
[159]
arms and our legs and our core is one of
the most important things we can do
[163]
there has to become our job as we're
getting older everything else won't work
[169]
unless we're strong so I'm going to show
you what exercises I do what exercises
[175]
my kids have taught me to do to help
encourage you to give this a try and
[180]
stick with it because when you start
getting results you're just going to be
[183]
so happy with yourself yeah I was
feeling soft and flabby and I did
[187]
something about it so here's what I did
before you start exercising just know
[192]
that you've got to keep your muscles
stretched so I always stretch before I
[197]
exercise and it's a great idea for you
to do that too it doesn't take long if
[201]
you can do this a couple of times a week
or do it every day if you've got the
[205]
time to do it you don't have to be doing
your exercise this is a yoga strap you
[209]
can use a piece of fabric or you can use
a broom handle but what you do is you
[215]
hold it like this and then come up
behind your head and then go back very
[223]
slowly and just do this so you're really
loosening up your shoulder muscles if
[233]
you do this every day it just lubricates
your muscles and makes everything feel
[239]
better if you don't have much movement
you hold your strap out a lot wider and
[246]
if you want to challenge yourself you
hold your strap in a little bit tighter
[252]
so this is that the hard part
[259]
and oh okay that's when you challenge
yourself to keep it easy make it
[268]
comfortable it's to start with so you
can just do lots of these this is the
[274]
first of our five exercises we're going
to work on our shoulders and I've got
[278]
some four kilo about 10-pound weights
here and you can do this at home if you
[283]
don't want to go to the gym and you will
be able to get the same results as if
[287]
you're going to a gym you just got to
keep doing it
[290]
okay the first exercise out of the five
is a shoulder exercise and you grab your
[296]
weights and bring them up to your
shoulder height okay so I'll just show
[303]
in the picture here where this is
actually working on your muscle and you
[308]
don't kind of bend back all or lift
throwing your body around you hold your
[314]
core in and be very purposeful with each
move okay we're going to do three sets
[324]
of ten of each of these exercises as you
get a little bit better you can go up to
[329]
12 or 15 three sets of okay the second
exercise is also a shoulder exercise
[334]
it's working on another part of the
shoulder so you grab your weights and
[338]
hold them like this and then you pour
like it so you've got a glass of water
[343]
so here is where you pour you can
imagine the water's coming out so keep
[349]
your arms like this
[356]
and each movement is purposeful and not
fast to get them over and done with
[365]
think about what the muscles doing while
you're doing your exercise the part
[371]
where we get our bat wings this part
here this is called our tricep and we've
[377]
got to work on our triceps and it can be
hard for a lot of people because they
[382]
don't really get that much use so when
you start exercising them it can hurt if
[388]
you wake up the day after you do this
first and it hurts that's fantastic
[392]
because the pain means you haven't been
using your muscles and now you are and
[396]
they're alive and they're away hold your
weight here at the top and then you
[402]
support just with a finger you support
this arm so that it stays straight so
[409]
you want to go up and down keep in mind
if you use a heavy weight for this it
[418]
will hurt you to start with because this
is not a strong muscle that's just too
[424]
getting a workout so I'm the reason I'm
holding this is so that it doesn't fly
[430]
all over the place it's just a little
bit of support and you can see that
[441]
working okay I'm puffing out because
this is a workout and to finish off our
[450]
triceps we're going to work a different
part of the tricep and we're going to
[456]
work on this part of the arm here so
we're going to go back like this and you
[464]
can see in my arms what part of the
muscle is getting activated there you'd
[472]
be very careful with each move and be
gentle and use a light weight to start
[483]
with because we can definitely feel
these guys ok 10 of those each arm
[489]
three times the next thing we're going
to work on is our biceps and most people
[495]
have heard of a bicep curl and if you
just sort of touch your bicep you can
[500]
feel this working and you bring it all
the way down so this would be the wrong
[508]
way to do it just like this that's the
wrong way to do it it's got to be on
[514]
purpose you think about how your muscles
being activated while you're doing the
[518]
exercise and you bring it all the way
down and then up if you just do these
[525]
five exercises three times a week you
will start noticing results but the most
[530]
important thing to know about exercise
at our age is we've got to do cardio as
[536]
well so we've got to burn and increase
our heart rate and the fact that sits
[541]
over the muscles needs to be worn off so
the muscles grow strong and we start
[546]
stripping the fat you're going to have a
body that is constantly changing and
[550]
you're going to be so happy with the
results that you receive and you will
[554]
have done it all by yourself just get
motivated to do this we've got a long
[559]
way to go yet and our bodies need to
take us there so it's time to start
[563]
looking after our bodies like the temple
that they are and give it some love and
[569]
attention the secret to having a healthy
strong body is resistance training like
[576]
I just showed you
cardio work which we can all do we can
[579]
all go for walks where we're puffed out
and reducing the amount of sugars and
[585]
whites flours and breads and rice and
pasta and processed foods so if we
[591]
reduce that and do those other two
things you're going to start to have
[596]
changes and your body will start feeling
great if you have the gift of a body
[600]
that can do exercise start doing it
because it will keep giving for the rest
[605]
of our lives and it's not about being
skinny at all strong is what we need to
[611]
be in our 50s 60s 70s and 80s and beyond
there's so many things that I would like
[616]
to improve but I'm happy I'm proud of
myself for being able to tone my arms
[621]
when
a flabby and to slim down when I was
[624]
overweight so it's a process and I'm not
comparing myself to anybody else because
[630]
this is my body and I can only make it
as good as I can make it I can't make it
[635]
to be perfect what I see on other people
so I'm happy with that and I'm proud of
[639]
myself thank you so much for watching
please give a thumbs up if this was of
[643]
any help to you and share it with any of
your friends who have got a flabby arm
[648]
issue thank you so much for watching and
have a beautiful week
