Are you walking 'kang kang' after workout class?

I did not write blog for few days as Mee Mee was doing migration at the server. Mee Mee and her husband are the persons who designed this website, they are very professional, l am very lucky as they really put a lot of effort on it [everybody can see that right?], ARIGATO.......

Anybody looking for a good website designer? Contact Mee Mee please, they will not let you down l believe. They are going to set up their own IT company in Penang,l know they can make it as they are very responsible.

Mee Mee asked whether we will walk 'kang kang' [like a crab] after doing workout? As some of her friends believe that !

hahahahaha.......

I have been teaching in this line for 15 years,if this is true, l cannot immangine how 'kang kang' l am today ! Oh my God ! Am l 'kang kang' ah?

So everytime after class you will see all 'kang kang' girls come out from the studio lo?

Nonsense Nonsense Nonsense la!

By the way, if you are doing workout and happened that you read this blog, please response on this to me, l am interested to know how many of you have been 'kang kang' and why, so that l know how to help you if you are 'kang kang' !

哈哈想了都好笑,这样没根据都行?

But this really happened to some ballet students, as they have to stand at their position strictly  [a little bit 'kang kang' one] most of the time, if they practise ballet from young, they will walk 'kang kang' unconsciously. But l can see the improvement nowadays as many ballet teachers have realized this and they will remind their students.

Continue from my last two blogs about firness, l mentioned of Zero 's six different types of workouts. Normally we will recommend yogarobics and shaperobics to beginners as these two workouts are not very tough but effective. l created these two workouts about 8 years ago. That time l practised in yoga and found that it is really good to train up our body's flexibility,l enjoy yoga of it's relaxation and stretching, so l tried to put some simple yoga poses in my aerobics class. That time yoga is not popular yet, everybody was doing aerobics only especially high impact one. I believe l am the first one who combined yoga and aerobics together in Malaysia.

And my students love it, they asked for more yoga later, so l started to separate yoga 's stretching from high impact aerobics and gave it an easy name to remember---YOGAROBICS.

Many people thought yoga will help to burn fat, this is wrong ! Yoga is not a cardio, it is not something with' beat' and need frequent breathing process [yoga needs deep breath]. Yoga is very good for health, blood circulation, release tension and peace of mind but  IT DOES NOT HELP IN LOSE WEIGHT, that's why you can still see many yoga teachers in big size. Well, yoga will help to tone your muscle as most of the poses need impact from muscles to hold, you are more tone after some yoga practices but still in the same size, your size will be reduced only with burning the fat, in another words, only with cardio exercise.

But why many advertisements saying that yoga is a good exercise for burn fat ? I think this is a strategy, once it is related with 'burn fat' ,it can sell better. But nowadays many yoga is no more only yoga, many yoga teachers combined yoga with other exercise like what l did for my yogarobics, if it is with cardio like what we do, then of course it will help in burn fat. But for our yogarobics, we try not to do high impact in this workout as our body might not be able to convert from stretching to tough cardio in short time, also we are not doing difficult yoga as this is not a proper traditional yoga class, in fact what we do is more on stretching. But l know sometimes my instructors are too excited to share, ha ha sometimes it is a little bit out of control. If you are not comfortable on that, please tell the instructors , Zero' s instructors are mostly welcome for comments, l am sure they will not angry instead they will appreciate your sharing,trust me !

Hence, in Zero, yogarobics is just nice for a beginner to make a first step in workout, it is slow , easier, mild but can still help in burn fat and tone up. But of course if you are over weight and very keen to lose weight now, yogarobics is not enough for you, you should go more on aerobics, aerotone and tae bo, or spend more time on treadmill and bicycle.

Please give me time to share more on other workouts and fitness knowledge one by one, l need time, it is 1am now, l need to do some reading and try to sleep before 2am, l have many classes tomorrow from 2pm to 7pm,non-stop.

I appreciate if you are spending your time with my blog, and hope my experience in this line will provide some 'keys' to you, please feel free to ask any questions here as l know l am busy in studio most of the time,may be l am not able to answer you in studio. So this place is our chat room, if you are reading the blog but your friends has not read it yet, please help to spread it out, no matter your friends are Zero's members or not, sharing is just sharing, it is beneficial to all readers and l know l will improve from this as well. Also please correct me if l have given wrong information, l am still learning too.

Ok la have to go.............
