I'm Miffed!

[gness]

My toning tables club is having a party next week......slimline tonic and cucumber I suppose.....for those who have a certificate for losing weight and inches.......

I don't need to lose weight and inches....I go to keep supple.....

This is discrimination!

I may gatecrash with a huge chocolate cake and Guinness.....☺

[Tilly2]

Take a knife as well and slash the tables!

[gness]

Hmmmm....but then I won't be able to leg wave on Monday.....and I have to keep occupied if AB is down, Tilly.....x

[Tilly2]

Oh, ok. Just slash the one toning table you don't use.

Take a pink french fancy and eat it in front of the other starving dieters.

[AB Editor]

Sorry, what is a toning table? What does one do with one?

[gness]

Oh that's such a good idea, Donny.....nearly bought some today to start qualifying for next year's party.....x

I use them all, Tilly......it costs a lot to keep supple at this place....x

[gness]

This....if it works, Ed.......some folk have had fantastic results.......I do it to keep flexible and supple and feel great after a session....x

What do you tone ?

[gness]

All of me, Baz.....especially my legs....the sessions are tailored to what you feel you need. I had leg problems for a long while.....this has been fantastic.

I have lost a little weight and eight inches over all....but that's not why I go.....at my age I don't want to be slowing up......☺

Take lots of choccies and several bottles! I used to love toning tables in Bingley before I left for France and now I have arthritis I would love to use them again - but I can't find any nearby. :(

Ab Editor. - they are leather-covered tables which bear your weight whilst you perform exercises: e.g. one might have 2 leg sections which rise and fall alternately. Whilst they are rising you do isometric exercise with the appropriate leg; others will swivel the body from the hips or raise the back so you can do sit-ups without too much stress. Hope this helps. :)

If you do look at the video...the machine doesn't do it all for you...you work against the pressure of the machines so it feels like a workout....x

[gness]

Not easy to find are they, J......I used them years ago til the place closed down.....Kettering council again....but this new place is a blessing....

I tone with lots of elderly ladies who are finding it helps with arthritis and stiff joints.....x

They are not toning tables, that's an autocorrect misprint. It should say ironing tables. You iron vigorously to burn calories.

[gness]

You iron away, Hoppy.....I'll tone.....☺
