Stay tuned for Body and
Spirit. Today we're going to
00:00:15.14\00:00:17.35
talk about a very
controversial topic and
00:00:17.38\00:00:19.98
that is eating
disorders and exercise.
00:00:20.01\00:00:21.60
Hello, I am Dick
Nunez, Wellness Director
00:00:51.07\00:00:52.44
of the Black Hills
Health & Education Center,
00:00:52.47\00:00:54.41
welcome to Body and Spirit.
00:00:54.44\00:00:55.73
Its been very sad for
me to see the condition
00:00:57.31\00:00:59.46
of all the young girls in
our society, they are obsessed
00:00:59.49\00:01:02.08
with the fact of being
pencil thin and they will do
00:01:02.11\00:01:04.86
anything to get that way,
whether its totally avoiding
00:01:04.89\00:01:07.77
eating anything or
doing the bulimia thing where
00:01:07.80\00:01:10.48
they're causing themselves
to purge what they eat,
00:01:10.51\00:01:12.40
taking laxative diuretics,
starving themselves down,
00:01:12.43\00:01:13.40
it's a very sad situation,
and a lot of it has to do with
00:01:15.73\00:01:19.68
trying to control
situations of their life.
00:01:19.71\00:01:21.67
They don't have peace
within their heart and
00:01:21.70\00:01:24.53
they're trying to find
someway of gathering their
00:01:24.56\00:01:27.20
equilibrium of their life.
So we're going to be talking
00:01:27.23\00:01:30.13
today about some
things to do with the eating
00:01:30.16\00:01:32.54
disorders and we're
going to talk about exercise
00:01:32.57\00:01:34.40
as well and how
that plays a part in it.
00:01:34.43\00:01:36.40
We know in the Bible it
says that all things that we do,
00:01:36.43\00:01:40.14
whether we eat or
drink that all should be done
00:01:40.17\00:01:42.40
for the Glory of God,
true often we get locked into
00:01:42.43\00:01:45.67
doing things for our own
self and if we keep on focus
00:01:45.70\00:01:48.15
on Christ, great
things can happened for us.
00:01:48.18\00:01:50.57
So let's get started here
and today helping me out is
00:01:51.23\00:01:54.13
Nicole. And Nicole is a
good assistant for me today
00:01:54.16\00:02:02.81
and we talked a little
bit before we came on that
00:02:02.84\00:02:05.00
Nicole has battled
anorexia before and has overcome
00:02:05.03\00:02:08.87
it and realizes that it
is a lifelong battle, knows
00:02:08.90\00:02:11.62
that it's still there
but she claims the promises
00:02:11.65\00:02:14.91
of Lord and by his
grace, she has had victory
00:02:14.94\00:02:18.01
and she is going to keep
claiming that victory because
00:02:18.04\00:02:20.85
we know in our life that
when we think we got it whipped,
00:02:21.05\00:02:23.27
then we know we're in trouble.
00:02:23.30\00:02:24.63
I always hate it when
an alcoholic says well
00:02:24.66\00:02:26.37
I've got it whipped, I am
not going to drink ever again;
00:02:26.40\00:02:28.27
I feel sorry for them,
'cause I know they're going
00:02:28.30\00:02:30.01
to fall again. So, we
know we're weak and the
00:02:30.04\00:02:32.73
Bible says that, in our
weakness are we made strong.
00:02:32.76\00:02:35.32
So we're going to
acclaim that strength and
00:02:35.35\00:02:37.01
we're going to go
boldly forward. So let's loosen
00:02:37.04\00:02:38.38
up a little bit.
Nicole, we're going to swing
00:02:38.41\00:02:42.30
the arms around, and
you're going to get personally
00:02:42.33\00:02:46.85
trained by me today,
so we are going to have
00:02:46.88\00:02:48.33
a lot of fun, at least I
am, I don't know how much
00:02:48.36\00:02:50.41
fun you'll have. Okay,
now let's go the other way,
00:02:50.44\00:02:56.66
you just wanna loosen
the body up so we're ready
00:02:59.51\00:03:01.59
for action, whatever it
is that we're going to do,
00:03:02.32\00:03:03.88
okay and five more, one,
two, three, four and five.
00:03:08.55\00:03:15.39
Good. Now what we're
going to do is we're going
00:03:15.42\00:03:17.38
to get in a
prayer position here,
00:03:17.41\00:03:18.38
we are going to
press our palms hard,
00:03:18.41\00:03:20.72
okay now what we are
going to do is rotate,
00:03:22.11\00:03:23.56
we are going to push
them out and we're going
00:03:23.59\00:03:26.89
to draw back,
push out and draw back,
00:03:26.92\00:03:31.59
wanna keep the pressure
on the hands at all time as
00:03:31.62\00:03:35.48
you're pulling back and
pushing out, okay keep going.
00:03:35.51\00:03:39.64
I found in my life as
we train people with eating
00:03:46.01\00:03:49.34
disorders that exercise
is another way that they
00:03:49.37\00:03:52.87
can take control of their
life in a positive venture,
00:03:52.90\00:03:56.05
because if you're
starving yourself down and
00:03:56.08\00:03:58.64
you're causing
yourself to loose vital tissue
00:03:58.67\00:04:00.85
it's going to be totally
counterproductive to training
00:04:00.88\00:04:03.85
and as we feel so much
better by training then it gives
00:04:03.88\00:04:07.64
us a different focus in our
life, it takes it off of the
00:04:07.67\00:04:10.55
abstaining from food
totally or the purging aspect.
00:04:10.58\00:04:15.00
Okay, now we are
going to turn our hands back
00:04:15.79\00:04:17.01
into prayer position,
we are going to push over
00:04:17.04\00:04:19.40
the side back the other
way, good, we want to be
00:04:19.43\00:04:24.48
focusing on the chest
muscles as we do this,
00:04:24.51\00:04:27.98
okay, we're going to
go five more each way,
00:04:31.30\00:04:32.53
there's one and two and
three and four and five,
00:04:34.69\00:04:48.11
good, now get back to the
center now we're just going
00:04:48.14\00:04:49.69
to push hard, we are
going to hold that for about
00:04:49.72\00:04:52.99
a ten second time
count. Five, six, seven, eight,
00:04:53.02\00:05:00.94
nine, ten, good. Okay,
Nicole, I want you to kneel down
00:05:01.86\00:05:05.78
in front of me here, and
you're going to bring your
00:05:05.81\00:05:09.46
arms up like this
okay, now for those at home
00:05:09.49\00:05:12.88
if you don't have
a training partner,
00:05:12.91\00:05:14.51
I'm gonna to be
Nicole's resistance today,
00:05:15.16\00:05:17.76
but if you have a training
partner that can do what
00:05:18.57\00:05:19.98
we're doing here or if
you need to use a towel
00:05:20.01\00:05:22.18
or however you wanna do
this, you can modify it.
00:05:22.21\00:05:25.62
Okay, push your elbows
down towards your side,
00:05:25.65\00:05:27.68
okay, push down
all the way down,
00:05:28.90\00:05:29.96
okay now resist on the
way back up, good, okay push,
00:05:29.99\00:05:34.69
so what I am doing I
am being her resistance
00:05:38.73\00:05:40.25
as she goes through
the range of motion push,
00:05:40.28\00:05:41.87
good and back up
and push, and back up,
00:05:41.90\00:05:49.21
good again push, okay,
push okay we are going to do
00:05:50.11\00:06:03.35
five more, push, what
I am doing is I am trying
00:06:03.38\00:06:07.28
to give her enough resistance
so she could feel like
00:06:07.31\00:06:11.05
she is doing
something but I am not trying
00:06:11.08\00:06:13.41
to make it a struggle
of strength to prevent her
00:06:13.44\00:06:19.01
from doing the exercise,
two more, and last one.
00:06:19.04\00:06:28.09
Okay, good.
Okay, come on back up.
00:06:30.34\00:06:32.24
Now you are going to
reach the arm over the head,
00:06:34.54\00:06:36.19
we are going to stretch
the muscle we just worked.
00:06:36.81\00:06:38.16
Okay, want to feel the
stretch right in through
00:06:39.70\00:06:41.16
here excellent. Hold
that stretch, okay relax.
00:06:41.19\00:06:50.36
Go to the other side now, good,
00:06:51.53\00:06:56.19
you're gonna feel that
stretch right through there.
00:06:57.36\00:06:58.86
Okay, good. Alright,
come back to the center here,
00:07:05.42\00:07:08.84
okay we are going to
raise our arms out to the side
00:07:10.41\00:07:12.22
now and I'm going to
give you the resistance,
00:07:12.25\00:07:13.67
okay and back down, and
up, these are vital raises,
00:07:14.65\00:07:19.71
you can be using some
cans or some clorox jugs
00:07:19.74\00:07:23.71
or some dumbbells,
whatever you want or you can
00:07:23.74\00:07:26.43
just do it manual
with no weights at all.
00:07:26.46\00:07:29.27
So I am adding probably
about five to ten pounds
00:07:33.05\00:07:35.45
of pressure on each side
of Nicole's arms and way up,
00:07:35.48\00:07:38.77
wanna try pushing just
little harder on the way down,
00:07:38.80\00:07:41.44
because usually we're
stronger on the negative
00:07:41.47\00:07:44.47
or the the East center
part of the contraction.
00:07:45.25\00:07:46.64
Okay we are going
to try and do more,
00:07:50.24\00:07:51.34
shoulders are very
important area for our posture
00:07:57.93\00:08:00.81
and just our
overall cosmetic appearance,
00:08:00.84\00:08:03.14
obviously those
battling with eating disorders
00:08:04.43\00:08:06.08
are very concerned
about how they look,
00:08:06.11\00:08:08.00
and by doing these type
of exercises we can actually
00:08:12.01\00:08:13.91
sculpt the body and
take on a different contour.
00:08:13.94\00:08:17.17
Now Arnold Schwarzenegger
used to talk a lot of times
00:08:18.35\00:08:20.21
about using his body as
a, artists would use clay.
00:08:20.24\00:08:24.61
Okay now hold that there
and I want you hold that,
00:08:24.64\00:08:27.61
resist against me, okay
keep it holding for 20 more
00:08:29.15\00:08:32.41
seconds, hold good,
you're doing wonderful,
00:08:32.44\00:08:36.62
five, four, three,
two, one. Good. Okay, does
00:08:36.65\00:08:42.70
it feel alright, curl your
shoulders a little bit, okay.
00:08:42.73\00:08:46.72
Bring your arm
across, you feel that stretch
00:08:47.71\00:08:52.70
in the shoulder okay
good, now switch, okay good,
00:08:52.73\00:09:03.61
let's relax. Now
Nicole, what we're going to do
00:09:03.64\00:09:05.68
is we're going to
take our hands palms up,
00:09:05.71\00:09:07.53
we're going to put our
other hand on the wrist
00:09:08.44\00:09:10.23
and we are going to
curl the arm up and push back
00:09:10.26\00:09:12.49
down and now we
dictate how hard we wanna work.
00:09:12.52\00:09:16.67
So if you really want
to put something to it,
00:09:17.72\00:09:19.53
you can, you can make
it a real tug of war with
00:09:20.58\00:09:22.44
yourself if you want,
but if you just finished say
00:09:22.47\00:09:25.03
the toning aspect then I
would encourage you just to
00:09:25.06\00:09:27.83
go through a range of motion.
00:09:27.86\00:09:29.03
And let's do five more,
there's one, two, three,
00:09:39.65\00:09:46.40
four, five and one more time
five, good, let's go the other
00:09:46.43\00:09:53.00
side now, okay,
good. I want to get a good
00:09:55.27\00:09:59.03
full range of motion each
time, arm all the way down,
00:09:59.06\00:10:02.32
curl it up, feel the
bicep do the work, nine and ten,
00:10:02.35\00:10:15.81
we got ten more to
go, one, two, three,
00:10:16.40\00:10:22.35
it's important keep
those palms up as we do this
00:10:22.38\00:10:24.87
and five more
and one more, good.
00:10:24.90\00:10:37.03
Trying to feel that a
little bit, alright, good.
00:10:37.67\00:10:39.79
Get you warmed
after a while okay,
00:10:40.62\00:10:42.65
now we're going to do
the opposite muscle area
00:10:42.68\00:10:44.47
and by doing this we're
going to take our palm up,
00:10:44.50\00:10:47.35
we are going to put
our wrist into it as
00:10:47.38\00:10:49.66
we're driving it down,
we're going to have the elbow
00:10:49.69\00:10:51.52
into the side, we are
going to push all the way down,
00:10:51.55\00:10:53.95
you might have to get
your elbow in front of
00:10:54.65\00:10:55.89
you just a little bit
to get that full extension.
00:10:55.92\00:10:58.54
What we want to focus
on is the muscle back here,
00:11:00.41\00:11:02.07
give yourself good
resistance as you push, good,
00:11:04.25\00:11:08.05
let's keep it going,
seven and then try and do twenty
00:11:09.42\00:11:11.63
again, once again
when you control how harder
00:11:11.66\00:11:17.83
we want to work, you
want to make it a tug of war,
00:11:17.86\00:11:20.57
that's fine, for those
that are a little more advanced
00:11:21.59\00:11:24.75
or want to give
yourself an extra push,
00:11:25.31\00:11:26.59
by all means do that,
really work yourself hard,
00:11:28.32\00:11:30.64
four more and last
one, okay good job.
00:11:32.55\00:11:40.12
Okay let's go over to
the other side now, okay,
00:11:40.64\00:11:45.37
often times it's good
to do the weak side first,
00:11:52.03\00:11:54.84
so that when you
go to the strong side,
00:11:56.39\00:11:57.69
we just match what we've done,
00:11:57.72\00:12:01.43
that will help us to
get our muscular balance,
00:12:01.46\00:12:03.48
ten more one, two, three,
four, five, six, seven, eight,
00:12:07.51\00:12:22.24
nine and last one, ten.
Good, shake the arms out,
00:12:24.08\00:12:28.34
okay, now we're going to
some lunges out to the side,
00:12:28.99\00:12:32.95
the way we're going to
do that is we're just going
00:12:33.73\00:12:34.70
to step out to the side,
okay, and now we're going
00:12:34.71\00:12:38.74
to rotate over to the
other side, so we should
00:12:38.77\00:12:41.59
feel in the hips a little
bit, we should feel in inside
00:12:41.62\00:12:43.28
the thigh, we are also
going to feel in the legs,
00:12:43.31\00:12:45.84
this will do two
things as it some what loosens
00:12:45.87\00:12:50.37
it up for our leg
workout, first it works on the
00:12:50.40\00:12:54.67
flexibility aspect especially
through the inner thigh.
00:12:54.70\00:12:57.94
Okay, we're going to try
and do five more each way,
00:13:05.51\00:13:07.55
there's one, two, three,
four and one more time five,
00:13:08.95\00:13:24.04
good. Okay now we are
going to do some partial squats,
00:13:24.83\00:13:28.52
we are not going
to go down very deep,
00:13:29.43\00:13:30.46
we are just going to
do a moderation of that,
00:13:31.50\00:13:34.55
we're going to turn
the toes out slightly,
00:13:34.58\00:13:36.35
we're going to
have the shoulders,
00:13:36.38\00:13:37.53
the feet are going to
be little wider in shoulder
00:13:38.18\00:13:39.60
width and across the
arms and when we squat
00:13:39.63\00:13:41.84
down we're going to
focus on pushing our hips back,
00:13:41.87\00:13:44.57
gonna keep our chest
up, we don't want our knees
00:13:44.60\00:13:46.74
to go over the feet we
are just going to sit back
00:13:46.77\00:13:48.55
like this and we are
going to go down about a quarter
00:13:48.58\00:13:51.27
of the way and back
up, but we want to try
00:13:51.30\00:13:53.41
and stop just short of
lock out, so we keep the tension
00:13:53.44\00:13:56.38
on the thighs, we're
going to try and do some good
00:13:56.41\00:14:00.09
reputations here,
usually a good set of exercise
00:14:00.12\00:14:05.15
will last for a minute
or two, so we're doing some
00:14:05.18\00:14:08.43
short squats here,
so we are going to do,
00:14:08.46\00:14:10.44
well we may do as
many as 50 of them,
00:14:11.56\00:14:13.32
to see how it goes here,
if Nicole doesn't faint first,
00:14:13.35\00:14:17.14
there is 12, now for those
at home if you need to stop
00:14:20.14\00:14:26.81
that's okay, if you
want to go deeper that's okay
00:14:28.35\00:14:31.23
as well, for those who
have been doing this along
00:14:31.26\00:14:33.52
with us for a quite a
while, who have been working
00:14:33.55\00:14:36.35
out fairly regular. We
like to try and personalize
00:14:36.38\00:14:42.81
the workouts and
try and reach as broad a
00:14:42.84\00:14:45.87
variety of people as we
can, whether you're male
00:14:45.90\00:14:48.68
or female, young or
old, hopefully the workouts
00:14:48.71\00:14:51.60
have something for everybody.
00:14:51.63\00:14:52.78
Okay and I believe we
got 20 more to go, yeah,
00:15:00.71\00:15:04.27
how about that.
You're doing great though,
00:15:04.30\00:15:08.35
just want to focus
on pushing those hips
00:15:09.90\00:15:10.95
back each time, some times
people don't trust my count,
00:15:12.11\00:15:20.79
but we'll try and do
the best we can here,
00:15:21.41\00:15:23.03
okay we are looking good,
see how nicely synchronized
00:15:28.20\00:15:29.53
we are. Four more,
okay on this last one we are
00:15:29.56\00:15:42.91
going to sit down
and just hold it there,
00:15:42.94\00:15:44.43
we are going to try to hold
it for 30 seconds if we can,
00:15:44.46\00:15:47.74
oh boy I know,
this can be a killer,
00:15:47.77\00:15:50.80
there is ten and there
is twenty, one, two, three,
00:15:52.56\00:16:04.00
four, five, six, seven, eight,
nine, ten, good, good job.
00:16:04.03\00:16:12.49
Okay I want you lay
down on the floor there
00:16:12.52\00:16:15.19
on your side with
your head up this way,
00:16:15.22\00:16:16.29
okay and I want you
to reach back and grab
00:16:19.11\00:16:20.52
your ankle here and
pull back and stretch
00:16:20.55\00:16:23.33
the quadricep, good,
anytime we work the muscles
00:16:23.36\00:16:26.90
we also want to
stretch out, you okay there?
00:16:26.93\00:16:29.41
Okay, good. Going to
feel a nice steady stretch
00:16:30.50\00:16:34.07
there, it's very
important because if we lose
00:16:34.10\00:16:38.16
that ability to pull the
heel up to touch the buttocks
00:16:38.19\00:16:41.36
and we restrict
our knee movements,
00:16:41.39\00:16:42.94
we want to make sure we
keep that good flexibility
00:16:42.97\00:16:44.75
there, let's hold
for five more seconds,
00:16:44.78\00:16:46.63
okay let's keep
over the other side,
00:16:50.28\00:16:52.32
we're going to hold
the ankle and pull okay
00:16:54.01\00:16:58.39
and you might want to go
back, just a little further,
00:16:58.42\00:17:00.10
'cause it looks like you
have pretty good flexible well,
00:17:00.13\00:17:02.30
not too bad good, okay
and hold it for ten more
00:17:02.92\00:17:08.50
seconds, five,
four, three, two, one,
00:17:08.53\00:17:16.89
okay lay on your back, okay
I want you to bring a leg up,
00:17:16.92\00:17:20.67
okay I want, can you get a
hold of your ankle up there,
00:17:22.13\00:17:24.73
okay and pull back toward
you, nice, steady stretch,
00:17:24.76\00:17:28.14
she has her knee bend
just slightly and that's okay,
00:17:30.94\00:17:32.81
in fact if you need to
you might have your knee
00:17:33.66\00:17:35.13
bend even more, as
you reach behind the thigh
00:17:35.16\00:17:37.94
and pull it toward you. She's
got pretty good flexibility,
00:17:37.97\00:17:40.58
so she is able to make a
good pull from the ankle area,
00:17:41.93\00:17:43.85
okay, five more seconds,
okay, put that leg down,
00:17:44.83\00:17:51.58
now the other one,
okay, again we want a good
00:17:52.58\00:17:58.11
steady pull, whenever we
deal with eating disorders
00:17:58.14\00:18:05.99
we always want to be
very encouraging the person
00:18:06.02\00:18:08.23
going through there, it's
often times it's easy to think
00:18:08.26\00:18:11.23
that they know that
they're starving themselves,
00:18:11.26\00:18:13.33
so you should just
change it or isn't that easy.
00:18:13.36\00:18:15.63
Often times in life we get
involved with the behavioral
00:18:15.66\00:18:18.30
pattern we wish we
didn't have, the reality is we
00:18:18.33\00:18:20.53
struggled and we
need to be understood
00:18:20.56\00:18:22.69
as we are going through
that struggle, okay relax,
00:18:22.72\00:18:24.74
okay now we are going
to some abdominal crunches
00:18:24.77\00:18:27.89
and what we are
going to do is we're going
00:18:27.92\00:18:29.58
to bring the feet
up, good, and we're going
00:18:29.61\00:18:32.38
to put the hands behind
the neck to avoid hurting
00:18:32.41\00:18:35.03
the neck, we don't want
to grab the head or just
00:18:35.06\00:18:37.76
let it dangle we're
going to put it behind the neck
00:18:37.79\00:18:40.23
and the way we are
going to do crunches
00:18:41.00\00:18:41.98
is we're going to just
come up, it's just a very short
00:18:42.01\00:18:43.86
range of motion and
we're going to blow out as we
00:18:43.89\00:18:46.96
come up, and try and
lift your chin towards
00:18:46.99\00:18:49.58
the ceiling as you
come up that's excellent,
00:18:49.61\00:18:51.97
good, keep that going,
oh you got wonderful form
00:18:52.00\00:18:54.33
on that. You must
have done these before,
00:18:54.36\00:19:01.81
lots of them, okay good,
well that's good to know.
00:19:03.08\00:19:04.56
So I can, I can,
oh it's been a while.
00:19:04.59\00:19:08.44
It's too late now, okay,
six more in that position
00:19:09.88\00:19:15.75
and two more, okay
bring that feet off the floor
00:19:22.22\00:19:26.83
and cross at the ankle,
okay and let's go twenty
00:19:26.86\00:19:29.51
more and for those at
home if the other ones were
00:19:29.54\00:19:33.58
difficult enough and by
all means just keep the feet
00:19:33.61\00:19:35.59
on the floor for
those that are more advanced
00:19:35.62\00:19:38.31
then keep on going
like we're doing here.
00:19:38.34\00:19:40.50
As I was saying earlier
those who do have anorexia
00:19:42.93\00:19:44.67
or bulimia, need
to be understood,
00:19:44.70\00:19:46.53
need to be accepted or
need to be able feel like they
00:19:46.56\00:19:49.06
can tell the truth
whether they're having a
00:19:49.09\00:19:51.19
struggle or not, so
that those who love them
00:19:51.22\00:19:53.93
can be supportive and
be able to talk to them
00:19:53.96\00:19:56.25
and find out what
they're thinking about while
00:19:56.28\00:19:57.77
they're going through
that process and see if there's
00:19:57.80\00:20:00.20
things they can deal
with, unfortunately this is
00:20:00.23\00:20:02.12
very hard for family
members to cope with,
00:20:02.15\00:20:03.88
often times a problem has
something to do it with one
00:20:04.44\00:20:06.89
of them, and some
control issues, a lot of times
00:20:06.92\00:20:09.51
it's their daughter to one
of the parents or even siblings,
00:20:09.54\00:20:12.75
so things like anorexia and
bulimia it's not just as easy
00:20:12.78\00:20:15.99
as saying you know you
shouldn't be doing that,
00:20:16.02\00:20:18.29
so don't do it,
its very hard for them.
00:20:18.32\00:20:20.90
Okay let's put our legs
up straight, okay keep going,
00:20:20.93\00:20:28.37
twenty more, because the
reality is they know they
00:20:28.40\00:20:31.97
shouldn't be doing that
and also they don't want
00:20:32.00\00:20:34.18
to do it, they've lost
this image of themselves
00:20:34.21\00:20:36.44
and so what we're
trying to do, by exercise
00:20:36.47\00:20:39.15
is create a new
self image and for those
00:20:39.18\00:20:41.33
who are battling this,
we had a young 17-year-old
00:20:41.36\00:20:43.93
girl just come out
to our center recently
00:20:43.96\00:20:45.27
who was battling bulimia
and we got her into a really
00:20:46.37\00:20:48.37
good exercise routine
and this was done by three
00:20:48.40\00:20:51.10
or four months now she
is still staying purge free
00:20:51.13\00:20:53.44
as she has developed a
whole new life in exercise
00:20:53.47\00:20:56.06
but also realizes the
tendency is still there.
00:20:56.09\00:20:58.75
Unfortunately, it's
kind of like a light switch,
00:21:00.34\00:21:01.42
it is still there
and wants to turn on,
00:21:01.45\00:21:03.01
okay did you get
twenty more there?
00:21:03.04\00:21:04.21
Okay turn over
on your abdomen now,
00:21:04.24\00:21:05.94
now we're going to stretch
the, stretch those muscles
00:21:05.97\00:21:08.58
out, now I want
you to just lift up,
00:21:08.61\00:21:10.25
push up on your hands,
but keep your pelvis down,
00:21:10.28\00:21:12.40
good and just
feel the stretch there,
00:21:12.43\00:21:14.44
excellent, you're doing
great, okay, now go ahead
00:21:16.00\00:21:24.50
and lay back down,
put your hands behind
00:21:24.53\00:21:26.11
your back, now we're
going to lift the chest up off
00:21:26.14\00:21:28.69
the ground and back down again,
00:21:28.72\00:21:30.41
we are going to try
and do twenty of those
00:21:30.44\00:21:31.88
and this is count balance
what we did with the abdominal,
00:21:32.65\00:21:34.46
Nicole's got
excellent range of motion here,
00:21:35.63\00:21:37.06
she also ties in
the gluteal area,
00:21:37.09\00:21:39.28
for what we are
working with the lower back
00:21:39.31\00:21:42.16
and gluteal area 'cause
we want to do the squats,
00:21:42.19\00:21:44.20
that's a good
compound moment that works the
00:21:44.85\00:21:46.51
entire leg, plus it
brings that gluteal work
00:21:46.54\00:21:48.61
into it and so now by
doing the back contractions
00:21:48.64\00:21:52.46
here, we just
accentuate that. Now,
00:21:52.49\00:21:54.57
if you have a bad
back or other some type of
00:21:54.60\00:21:56.29
herniation then you want to
be careful on this exercise,
00:21:56.32\00:21:58.61
you might want to
make sure that its okay
00:21:59.29\00:22:00.63
for you to do. If it's
done slowly and correctly,
00:22:00.66\00:22:04.13
it should not be a
problem, how many have you done
00:22:04.16\00:22:07.11
there? Twenty, okay good.
00:22:09.04\00:22:10.01
At first I
thought you weren't sure,
00:22:13.32\00:22:14.59
and maybe you
want to do some more,
00:22:14.62\00:22:15.78
I wasn't sure. Okay,
okay now we are going
00:22:15.81\00:22:17.39
to do some calf work
and I think what we're going
00:22:17.42\00:22:20.03
to do is we're going
to do it on the edge here,
00:22:20.06\00:22:21.44
I want you to come
back to the edge and you are
00:22:21.47\00:22:24.17
going to put your
hand on my shoulder because
00:22:24.20\00:22:26.65
I don't want you to fall
off, like that, step back up
00:22:26.68\00:22:29.26
there okay and
let's go up and down,
00:22:29.29\00:22:31.31
for those at home you
might want to use a block
00:22:35.48\00:22:38.31
of wood or use a stair,
you can just hang on to the
00:22:38.34\00:22:41.94
banister or to the
wall, just up and down or find
00:22:42.15\00:22:46.28
the buddy system
like we're doing here.
00:22:46.31\00:22:47.57
Okay keep it
going, hand in there,
00:22:55.96\00:23:00.18
okay we are going
to go for ten more,
00:23:04.25\00:23:05.22
as you can see she is
getting a good range of motion
00:23:06.05\00:23:07.45
there, we want the
heels go beneath the platform
00:23:07.48\00:23:09.20
and way up high,
good. This is an excellent
00:23:09.23\00:23:15.71
exercise especially for
women because women do tend
00:23:15.74\00:23:17.96
to wear elevated
heels still even though some
00:23:17.99\00:23:20.92
of the fashions are
changed, I don't see so much of
00:23:20.95\00:23:22.28
spike heels any more, but
I still I see a lot of women
00:23:22.31\00:23:25.88
wearing high heels and
they loose that flexibility
00:23:25.91\00:23:28.55
of that Achilles Tendon area.
00:23:28.58\00:23:29.96
Okay, is that it?
Okay now we want to stretch
00:23:33.12\00:23:35.16
those muscles out, so we
are just going to step back
00:23:35.19\00:23:37.14
and press the heel to
the ground, we want to feel
00:23:37.17\00:23:42.64
it stretch in the back of
the leg down to the calf area,
00:23:42.67\00:23:44.67
and we are going to
hold that for about ten more
00:23:46.67\00:23:48.19
seconds five, six,
seven, eight, nine, ten,
00:23:48.22\00:23:59.17
now switch over, okay
press that heel down again.
00:23:59.20\00:24:02.55
Remember you don't
want to bounce into your
00:24:06.93\00:24:08.14
stretch though you just
want to hold it statically
00:24:08.17\00:24:10.85
hold at one spot there, if
you want to feel it stretch
00:24:10.88\00:24:14.27
may be you do stretch,
you wanna stretch just enough
00:24:14.30\00:24:16.67
or you feel you're
getting to a point where
00:24:16.70\00:24:19.22
you don't want to
go too much further,
00:24:19.25\00:24:20.54
but see that it's taking
you to a good range of motion.
00:24:20.57\00:24:22.93
Five more seconds,
four, three, two, one,
00:24:23.96\00:24:27.97
okay good. Now
we're going to just,
00:24:28.00\00:24:30.47
we're going to
loosen up the upper area,
00:24:30.50\00:24:32.64
we are going to
stretch out up there,
00:24:32.67\00:24:33.80
we're just going to
shrug the shoulders around,
00:24:33.83\00:24:35.22
make nice circles,
we're going to do that as part
00:24:36.41\00:24:41.27
of our cool down, four
more, okay now lets go the
00:24:41.30\00:24:51.66
other way, and its
good, keep it going,
00:24:51.69\00:24:56.34
and three more, okay,
good, now we are going
00:25:02.66\00:25:07.45
to turn our head to the
side, you should feel the
00:25:07.48\00:25:10.90
neck stretch and turn
and turn and turn and turn,
00:25:10.93\00:25:20.97
again turn, and two
more each side, last one,
00:25:24.18\00:25:34.87
good. Okay, now we're
going to do the trunk,
00:25:38.77\00:25:40.00
and turn and turn and
turn, good. I just want to
00:25:41.22\00:25:53.34
feel that twist in
our waist, remember
00:25:53.37\00:25:59.18
we don't want to
do the side bends,
00:25:59.21\00:26:00.59
it tends to thicken the
waist, it's amazing to me
00:26:01.66\00:26:04.18
how many people I see
in weight rooms was using,
00:26:04.21\00:26:06.93
they already got big
waists and they are taking
00:26:07.64\00:26:09.19
incredible heavy dumbbells
and they look like a big
00:26:09.22\00:26:11.94
tippy bird going back
and forth, side to side
00:26:11.97\00:26:14.17
and reality is they
think they're shrinking
00:26:14.20\00:26:17.60
themselves down, I
think the more weight they use
00:26:17.63\00:26:19.27
the better it's going to
be when just the opposite
00:26:19.30\00:26:21.85
is true, let's do two
more each way and good.
00:26:21.88\00:26:31.30
Okay, thanks a lot, we're
all done, go and go on back.
00:26:32.02\00:26:34.47
When we deal with
problems like anorexia
00:26:37.89\00:26:39.83
or nervosa, or
bulimia, we have to remember
00:26:39.86\00:26:42.92
it's like an
addiction and most of us know
00:26:42.95\00:26:45.76
what's like to be addictive
to something in our life
00:26:45.79\00:26:47.97
unfortunately as
Christians often times we know
00:26:48.00\00:26:50.63
what Paul's talking
about in Romans chapter 7,
00:26:50.66\00:26:53.05
when he talks about
the struggle with sin,
00:26:53.08\00:26:54.93
doing things he wished
he didn't do at all but yet
00:26:54.96\00:26:58.05
he keeps on doing it
and refer to himself as a
00:26:58.08\00:27:00.33
wretched man, but he
also says thanks be it to
00:27:00.36\00:27:03.70
Christ Jesus then he
goes on to say there is no
00:27:03.73\00:27:06.04
condemnation left
for those in Christ Jesus
00:27:06.07\00:27:08.13
and you know as
we look at our lives,
00:27:08.16\00:27:10.00
and if we realize
that we're totally accepted
00:27:10.03\00:27:12.14
and totally loved by
God, the guidance of what's
00:27:12.94\00:27:15.51
wrong with us and if we
feel that love and acceptance,
00:27:15.62\00:27:18.59
I always this philosophy
that I teach our wellness
00:27:18.62\00:27:21.31
guests, you can
always succeed when you feel
00:27:21.34\00:27:23.71
free to succeed, if you
feel like you have to do
00:27:23.74\00:27:26.37
something because
people are putting these
00:27:26.40\00:27:28.13
unrealistic expectations
on you, then it's very
00:27:28.16\00:27:30.70
difficult or if you feel
like somebody is going to
00:27:30.73\00:27:32.79
judge or condemn you, but
if you feel free to succeed
00:27:32.82\00:27:35.27
then you truly can and
with the Christian walk,
00:27:35.30\00:27:37.99
we can have that, if
we claim the promises of
00:27:38.02\00:27:40.23
Philippians 4:13 that we
can do all things through
00:27:40.26\00:27:42.97
Christ who strengthens
us, claim that promise
00:27:43.00\00:27:45.32
and incredible
things will happen for us,
00:27:45.35\00:27:47.67
God Bless You, thank
you for being with us
00:27:47.70\00:27:50.45
and we'll see you next week.
00:27:50.48\00:27:51.45
