toning trouble areas?
i am looking for moves to tone and tame my "worst" offenders..lower abs, obliques, inner/upper thighs, and butt ( i want it bigger/rounder/lifted https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_razz.gif ) so i am really needing moves that dont need anything more than resistance bands or free weights. i also have a hoop, stability ball, pole https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_wink.gif and a bosu ball. i just dont have acsess to gym eguipment. any advice or vids would be appreciated. i do moves like squats, but i feel it more in my thighs than my butt or i do abs and cant seem to target lower abs.ect. https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_scratch.gif
also any good links to a good stretching routine? https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif i put on 10lbs in 2 weeks bc stress, https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_surprised.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_eek.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_exclaim.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cry.gif but i am ready to de-double my efforts as have already taken 4lbs off over last 4 days or so https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_bounce.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_e_smile.gif as alot was water weight from so much salt consumption. i have been doing 25-40mins cardio/strength everyday last 4 days but when i am ready to stretch i can only think of a few basic stretches. i have very tight hamstrings and my right arm is much less flexible than my left.. i know theres some great dvds but budget very tight at the moment so just lookin for a decnet routine on youtube or whatever if anyone knows of 1. thanks alot! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_salut.gif https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_flower.gif

Hey someone just posted a book in another forum called The Genius of Flexibility by Bob Cooley. From what everyone here has said, it helps you really stretch which is great for toning. I just placed a hold on it at my local library. You may want to try the same.

Polephile recently posted this on a similar thread that I started:
"There’s a Yoga Today podcast that I use called "Deep Core Muscle Toning with Adi Amar" that is just outstanding for working the entire core, but really especially engages the transverse abdominus and the lower abs . You can get it for free on iTunes. Just search Yoga Today and scroll down until you find the title!!"
It’s pretty intense, but I LOVE it so far for working and toning those abs!! https://www.studioveena.com/img/smilies/icon_cheers.gif
