Question hi,
I have a dance recital coming up and im not in the best of shape and we have like 2 costumes that show our middle
First off I will tell you my problem areas:
-stomach
-inner thighs
-arms
I was woindering if you could help make some sort of an exercise plan that works very fast, I'm willing to work for it if it will happen quickly, If you are to busy to do that then do you think you cold just give some fast acting exercises to tone those areas and slim them down a bit?this is very urgent and I would appreciate it alot if you could help me,
Answer Hi Celeste. I do not know how much time you have, but if you're looking to "tone up" in my opinion you're going to need at least 4 weeks. During this 4 week period you're nutrition and training are going to have to be on point. Also, I do not write out programs or plans for people on this web site.
