Twitter topic of the day: Girly & manly exercise stereotyping

This post is my twitter daily tips / topic of the day. Follow me on Twitter @ezhomefitness

My #questionoftheday is do you disregard exercises because they are too feminine or too masculine for you to do or try?

Many people tend to disregard very effective forms of exercise because they consider these exercises as just for women or just for men. The truth is your body can't tell the difference if it's a feminine or masculine exercise. All your body knows is if it works or not. Many men shy away from yoga or stability ball training because they think these exercises are too girly but they are the ones missing out! On the flip side, many women shy away from weights & resistance training because that's a man thing to build muscle. Open your mind to ALL the exercise possibilities and see for yourself just how effective these exercises are for men & women. Incorporate all different types of exercises into your training to get a complete workout program. See what works & what doesn't. Incorporate all different types of exercises into your training to get a complete workout program. See what works & what doesn't. Different exercises work out different bodyparts and different muscle combinations so you can easily see the value in exercise variety. You have to keep the exercises interesting to keep you motivated and fresh from month to month. Change your workouts each month.
