Best jeans for women biography
Hmm, skinny jeans, eh?” said my little boy when I returned from the shops one day in September. “They should fit you by December.” The jaw-dropping precociousness was more innocent than it seemed; born out of my panic at fitting into a bridesmaid’s dress for my sister’s wedding in December, just 11 weeks away.For me, body size was always about the weight on the scales and what size I was wearing. In the run-up to my sister’s wedding, however, I decided that it would become more about gain than loss. Pains in my knees, breathlessness; at 38 this was unacceptable to me. I wanted to be able to run for a bus without feeling my chest was about to explode and, with rheumatoid arthritis in my family, I was not prepared to succumb to joint pain without a fight. I wanted to be slim, yes, but I also wanted to be strong.Going to Marc Smith of Complete Fitness for the first time was like stepping on to a stage in front of a capacity audience and forgetting my lines. The last time I’d exercised was 20 years ago. Note to teenage self; do not give up exercising or you will find yourself a prematurely decrepit old sod with no power in your legs, a flat arse and clothes that don’t fit. After an initial consultation, Smith asked me to do squats. I soon found out what they were as I attempted to sit into an agonisingly invisible seat. After twenty – perhaps one for every year I didn’t exercise – squats, lunges and side-lunges later, I was unable to walk downstairs properly for several days. Yet somehow it felt good. The first, painful steps had been taken.Smith says that when I first came to him, I looked a lot less healthy than I do now; my energy levels were low, my diet needed an overhaul and, at a very simple level, he needed to get me moving.In week two he introduced me to the TRX equipment. “This uses the person’s bodyweight as counterweight, avoiding the necessity for free weights which can lead to injury,” he says. “For people who are time-conscious I also teach simple exercises that use the person’s own bodyweight, meaning that they can do the exercises at home.”For me “it was about getting the whole body moving more functionally and getting the body up straight, incorporating all the joints”, says Smith. “We focused on the large muscle groups using the ball slam and using the cable machine for rotations, engaging the glutes [bum muscles], the lats [latissimus dorsi], the muscles below the shoulder blades and the transverse abdominal muscles.”Having got me moving in the first two weeks, Smith measured my statistics using a Tinita BC1500 machine which measures (and is accurate in its inaccuracy, as Smith is keen to stress) the body fat, body water, visceral fat and metabolic age of the person.In week four, something unprecedented happened. I found that I actually wanted to go to Smith’s studio. Despite the pain, I was enjoying becoming stronger and the buzz I was getting post-exercise. Smith is also unlike my expectations of a personal trainer, so, although he is intensely enthusiastic and knowledgeable about what he does, he doesn’t shout or make me feel embarrassed or weak.I started to pay attention to my food. I decided I no longer wanted to consume 15 days’ worth of extra calories a year in biscuits alone. Smith told me to take a note of my food intake and he gave me a diet plan which I failed to adhere to correctly (I’d be a lot slimmer now if I had) but that I used as a guide. I no longer reach for the sweet treats because I’ve stopped buying them, I choose herbal teas so I’m not tempted to eat something sweet with them, and I glide smugly past the Italian bakery.At this stage Smith noticed that I was beginning to see a change in my energy levels brought about by a change in attitude to my food intake, and this in turn made me more inclined to exercise.
