The story of how the "Russian woman" fought overweight

2024 Author: James Gerald | [email protected]. Last modified: 2023-12-17 14:00

Hello everyone! My name is Anya, and I propose to talk about the fact that we have nowhere to pull further, summer is already on the nose, which means that it is time to urgently get in shape, get rid of the extra pounds gained over the winter. Otherwise, we will not see open swimsuits and shorts, and with them the admiring eyes of our men.

I share my many years of experience, without exaggeration, the heroic struggle for a beautiful figure. Mother Nature endowed me with the figure of a Russian woman, that is, at any opportunity, my croup and thighs grow first, then my sides, arms and cheeks. With such a physique it is convenient to stop horses, but being a forest nymph is somehow not very good. The Russian woman also has several children, loves and knows how not only to cook, but also to eat. Sound familiar, girls? Then my opus is for you!

Every year at the beginning of spring, according to an unspoken Russian tradition, I step on the scales, then anguishly diagnose my last degree cellulite and, despite my husband’s duty reply: “Kitty, you’re not fat,” I firmly decide to take care of myself from Monday. The sizes of Kochi range from S to XL, that is, in the best times with a height of 168 cm, my results reached 50 kg, and in a difficult time the author weighed 75 kilograms. As I got older, I realized that a thin cow is not yet a gazelle, stopped giving birth and, on this basis, go into senseless and merciless jams, and I try to keep around the number 60. But every spring I start to lose weight and pump croup. I can't go to the gym, that's why the Internet is our everything, I use online training programs. It was not always possible to achieve the result, but experience is a wagon. Actually, I'll tell you about it. And I have tried many people, from Usmanova and # Frenzied Drying to little-known and non-star coaches. So let's go.

Perfect Body School #Sect

sektaschool.ru/ School of the ideal body #Sect. The founder is Olya Markis, a reggae vocalist from Yekaterinburg.

Having once decided to lose a little weight, she organized a community of like-minded people in LJ, in which, over time, her own approach to nutrition, training and lifestyle was formed. There are two ways of teaching in #Sect: full-time and distance. I studied remotely according to the course "Ideal body for mothers" - the 1st week cost 1,350 rubles, the next 4 weeks - 5,400 rubles. This is the most NOT budgetary that I have tried.

What's in the package: full workout videos - 2-3 full workouts per week, in addition to them morning exercises, posture exercises, etc.

The site has a daily menu, a training portal with articles on nutrition and fitness, and is a treasure trove of knowledge.

For example, I have had boxes for meals of 250 - 300 ml since then and forever. There are no personal consultations on the site, communication is organized through a group in VK. After the expiration of the course, access to all information is blocked. Performing daily tasks in your personal account is a good idea, but doing tasks such as setting goals for SMART and marking the reading of an article on the prices of self-massage brushes is not mine.

I liked that in training there are options for replacing exercises. For example, you don’t pull on an exercise - one trainer shows a difficult option, the second one is a light one. There are recommendations for health restrictions, it is proposed to constantly measure the pulse and monitor your condition, a lot of attention is paid to the exercise technique. I did not have enough load, maybe I chose the wrong course, but the load was too small for me.

This is probably well suited for recovery after childbirth, or, for example, if there were long breaks between workouts, as well as in cases when you need to remove a lot of weight and you can't jump right away.

In the end, the weight of course began to gradually go away, because over time, the attitude towards nutrition changed, and regular physical activity gave its results, but it did not work out to form at least some semblance of relief, and I abandoned this business.

#Frenzy drying

# Crazy drying. Founder and owner - Vasily Smolny. In the past, together with his wife Yulia, he organized concert activities.

Having decided to lose weight, he began to maintain a page about fitness on Instagram, thanks to which he gained some fame and authority in this area. In 2015, the first season was launched, and there were already 19 of them. Participation in the season will cost 3,500 rubles, the price with immunity from departure (and you can fly from # Drying) - 4,500 rubles. You take a photo of Before, exercise and eat right for a month, take a photo. After that you take part in the voting.

I specially put #Drying and #Secta next to each other, because they seemed to me very similar in concept: daily tasks in the personal account with a mandatory user mark, a lot of thematic content and constant involvement in the process. The number of full-fledged workouts is 2-3 per week, which is a list of exercises, for each of which there is a separate video. There is no workout from start to finish in one video.

In # Drying there are also tasks for the flight, this is when you need to complete a set of exercises, and having recorded all this on video, provide the organizers. There is no menu as such, only nutritional recommendations; a nutritionist is announced in a later version. Animated characters Minions provide consultations.

Another feature of Sushka is the struggle for a prize and for survival, i.e. a lot is built on a competitive moment and banal greed.

Of all the ones I have tested, only # Drying offers to do a couple, a team, a family, then the cost per person is lower, and each participant in the package has a chance to win a prize. Minuses. Well, let's just say - the trainer does not stand on ceremony, he calls the fat ones fat, the stupid - brainless, it is believed that this is fun and discipline. I am also not eager to upload my videos to the public, that's why I'm at home and study, and not in the hall, which you can not be particularly embarrassed about, pant and sweat heartily, and as it is convenient for you. In general, whoever needs a magic pendul in the literal sense and a chance to receive breast plastic surgery as a gift is for you. Dealing with local animation and Minions seemed boring to me, but I know that it helped a lot, especially those who need an extra incentive to take care of themselves.

The point is, of course, that it takes months of training to achieve visible results. Here, at least get around, the cubes on the stomach will not appear overnight.

kuzmichnatali.ru/ Natalya Kuzmich is an ordinary housewife and a young mother, in the past she suffered from breeches on her hips, cellulite, skinny top and massive bottom. Having given birth to a child, she fell into postpartum depression, from which she saw only one way out - to challenge herself and become a beauty to all enemies in spite. And she did it great, take a look on Instagram

Later she studied as a trainer and developed her own body transformation program at home. And now Natalia has become a support and motivator for many women who find themselves in a similar situation.

I bought her 2 in 1 course "Beautiful buttocks + anti-cellulite", it cost me 2,500 rubles per month, you could buy it for 2,000 rubles, she often throws off 500 rubles for the first participants who bought it. The course takes 21 days. 2 strength training and 1 cardio per week. New workout videos every week. A detailed menu by day, compiled by a nutritionist from the Kuzmich team. Particular emphasis is placed on the fight against cellulite, since the course includes self-massage, body wraps and special dietary restrictions for those who need to quickly bring the carcass into a marketable condition. Very convenient personal account, structured training and nutrition, news, content and contests in the feed, consultations.

The training program is available for a long time and is not blocked immediately after the end of the course. Many human thanks just for this.

What we liked was the full video of the training, which is led by the author of the course Natalya Kuzmich. I love to study under the video, you puff, then you pour out, and the fitness trainer on the video began to sip some water in the 25th minute and breathed heavily. In the course of training: Natalia very simply tells and shows how to correctly perform the exercises at home, what restrictions may be and what to replace, if required.

For example, how to do squats correctly so that your knees don't go forward? It's very simple to squat facing the wall. Like it or not, the knees will have nowhere to go, and you will have to turn the buttocks back, feeling how the load on the necessary muscles has gone right.

Thanks to Kuzmich, for example, I felt diastasis and finally understood why I could not get rid of the flabby belly. For those who, like me, were not in the subject - I tell you. Diastasis is a divergence of the rectus abdominis muscles. Want to check it out? Then, lying on your back, bend your knees, put one hand behind your head, tighten your abs, lifting your head and chest forward. With your free hand, feel the midline of your abdomen, moving up and down from your navel. If there are just tense muscles of the press - my congratulations and white envy to you. If you felt that the abdominal muscles parted to the sides, and between them there was a soft depression a couple of centimeters wide, then I have two news for you, good and bad. The bad thing is that you most likely have diastasis, but the good thing is that it is not fatal, and the stomach is effectively worked out with a special set of exercises, ordinary abdominal exercises will not bring much benefit anyway.

In short, I join those reviews about Natalya Kuzmich, where women unanimously say that after her course they finally understood how and what to do right at home, without specials. equipment and trainer.

Everything is on business, and at a good fast pace. Workouts contain basic elements - warm-up, workout itself, and stretching. The nutrition is very well worked out. A separate section on the site is allocated for it, where, in addition to the menu for 3 weeks, there are variations for vegans, vegetarians, for gaining body weight and separately recommendations for nursing mothers. Many recipes with desserts, everything is very nicely decorated, with photos of ready-made dishes. Natalia is a mother and wife herself, and she perfectly understands that a normal housewife will cook for herself every day separate dishes for a diet on a leftover principle, if at all. Therefore, it is suggested to use dishes that are perfect for all family members, because the food is well balanced, varied and attractive.

How do you, for example, have this menu option for the day? Chocolate cheesecakes for breakfast, pizza pizza with chicken fillet for lunch, and grilled fish with vegetables for dinner? Agree, you do not feel like a starving sufferer, but the weight still goes away. By the way, Natalia herself, together with her team, answers questions, advises during the course, and complements and improves each next program.

For example, even my course "Beautiful buttocks + anti-cellulite", I see from past reviews about Natalya Kuzmich that it used to be like two courses. Well, how, excuse me, to pump the ass to "pears" like me, but not work with cellulite? No way. Therefore, she, apparently, united so that everything was correct, honest and thoughtful.

In fact, this is the most budget proposal I've tried. To be honest, I didn't expect much for this money. But in the end, she hung on the course, and in three months she removed the extra 5 kg, but the weight here is probably not an indicator, since it is more important that the figure has become more shaped, fit, now it is not a shame to go to the beach.

You already perceive Natalia as your personal trainer, because the quality of the content, videos, materials she posts are always in line and made at a very decent level, and she herself does not leave her group unattended for a day.

In a decent variety of courses and programs, these are just a few of the suggestions. Since the topic is relevant, I will continue to acquaint you with it in the next part of the story, along the way testing everything on myself.
