Hi there, thank you …
Hi there, thank you so much for getting back to me so soon. I forgot to ask one other thing, if I wanted to tone up my arms so they could become very muscly (I’m female and 18yrs old) how long would it take and what weight exercises would I need to do each day and for how long? I’m very dedicated and will put the work in. My weight is in the healthy range for my height. I do a little Pilates, but are there any weight exercises that are good for building muscle as well? x Thank you so much. x

Hi, thanks for your lovely comments This could be achieved before Christmas! 40 minutes cardio most days and 20 minutes Pilates to keep toned. Keep a food diary – you’ll be surprised what you forget! Lots of advice and info on my website and please feel free to contact via there. Good luck x

I like your videos a lot. Could I ask you a question, how fast could a person lose 2 and a half stone in? 35lb? And how much cardio and other exercises would you need to do a week etc… to achieve this? Thank you. x

Thanks for viewing. …
Thanks for viewing. You need to do cardio and reduce calories to lose weight, but increasing muscle will also help as muscle requires more energy just to exist. However, it weighs more than fat so that as you lose fat and increase muscle you will lose cms but not necessarily weight. You will be slimmer and more toned though. Please look at my other videos: Roll up/roll over; Twister/double leg stretch once you know the technique. Your comments on these would also be welcome

Pleased you like my video Yoga and Pilates can help you lose weight in as much as you will build muscle from the strength postures and exercises and muscles burn more calories than fat. I don’t know how tall you are but unless you are at the upper end of the normal BMI range, 5 kgs would be too much to lose. Eat a healthy diet, keep doing yoga and Pilates and you will be a healthy, slim size in really great shape.

You are welcome! …
You are welcome! The planks and core strength exercises are the best I know for pulling everything in around the torso. Try my other videos too.
