After coming across a video by Anderson Cooper in which they had wonderful fitness gadgets throughout Americas history I was encouraged to write a blog about some of those products and there benefits (or lack there of).
Below is the video from Anderson Cooper:
Some of the products in the video was the lovely face yoga. I recently saw this being done on a Rosie Pope show well does it work? I have my doubts, I do remember my mother doing these moves from the lady in Anderson's video. I would say it is more for sure than actually working it might add a few wrinkles when you have to stretch your tongue out so far, but no data supporting the benefits.
Riding a horse back and forth side to side well you truly are not doing much of the work you just need to stay on the saddle. Well you will get a little burn in the inner thighs and core work not enough to benefit you at all.
Shake weight- Well what does this actually do for you besides make your arm fat jiggle, not much. Your muscles are not contracting enough or at all to give you muscle growth or even to tone your arms with this weight. Plus you are burning minimal calories since your heart rate is not going up and you can do this sitting down and you will burn even fewer calories that way.
So if these quick fixes don't work what does? Well good old fashion diet and exercise does. If you need a place to start try hiring a trainer who can set you up with a good plan. Unfortunately there are no quick fixes and you do need to put in a little effort and sweat to make your goals a reality. Nothing replaces hard work.
