exercises to get a more feminine body

[Guest wannabefem]

Hey all, Kate here. I tried posting this thread before but it must have went weird. I posted to ask if anyone knows a good exercise and diet plan for a more feminine body?.

Whatever you do, don't do any exercises that will put any muscles on your arms. I would avoid exercises like the plague. No muscles means if you want to play sports you cannot play well. The only time I ever regretted not having any muscles was when my Mom fell and I could not pick her up.

I run 6k (about to up it to 10) 4 or 5 times a week. It's great for legs, butt, thighs and all that. It's fantastic for weight control. But I'm still pretty flabby waist up. I think the solution lies in 'core strengthening'. Not trying for a 6 pack but firming up. So pilates I'm thinking. Some yoga, serious stretching... the kind of yoga that makes you break a sweat. That's the direction I'm heading in anyway.

Oh ya... good, long, climbing hikes work just about everything.

Hi, This may fly in the face of conventional wisdom and I will qualify it somewhat. I have been slim build all my life, but I do 40 x 25m lengths in the swimming pool twice a week. I also put effort into the swim rather than sedate style. I've been on hormones about a year and have found that exercise after hormones is not as muscle bulking as before and is more toning. I was out and about today and nobody second glanced me even in a restaurant with bare ams and shoulders. So with all my exercising I seem to have achieved my first goal of passing which is at least to be able to walk about as my chosen gender most of the time. The biggest reality grounding I'm getting in my RLT is that I am rediscovering that life is about living as much as possible. I want to swim and cycle and skydive and climb just like any other girl that wants to do these things.

Best of luck being and becoming you, and don't loose yourself in the search

Hi Kate:

Would you like to start with core exercises from three to four times a week? For long term, this is the best "tummy tuck" to bring your core together and keep your core tight. Besides, you won't have a sixpack because these muscles are located deeper inside your body. Then, you may want to run on the threadmill for at least half an hour then please add bike or elliptical for 15 - 20 minutes, three times a week. Of course, you may need to start humble and taper the time up longer week by week. If you would like a "boob lift" exercise, please ask your gym trainer about which machine he/she recommends for that. Please, don't forget to switch up your exercises for better results and to avoid boredom. And of course, yes, indeed pilates and yoga may be your excellent choices as well. Weight loss is about 20 - 30 % of exercise and 70-80% of diet. It is possible to go on to a high protein-low carb diet that helps you losing weight quickly, but if you don't change your eating habit permanently, you will gain all weight back. That happened to me too. I endured the stringent herbalife diet for more than a month and lost 21 lbs. A few months later I was back where I started. Then I did Ideal Protein Diet for two months, with losing again 20 lbs, but I gained it all back again. These diets are pretty dangerous for long-term use and should only be temporary, because they affect hormonal balance (thyroid, insulin, etc) and metabolic rates and I am pretty sure they affect the nervous system as well. Because I have a poor food self-control, I just try avoiding pasta, rice, bread from my diet as much as possible...Instead of sugar, you may try fructalose sweeteners (Stevia, etc) in your coffee or tea. I beleve that Aspartame base sweeteners that you find in Equal, etc sweeteners and in diet coke, etc drinks are very harmful.

There is a ton of transgender exercises on Utube. Search bombshell body workout. Gina has some good ones, as do others.

I found my first ones on Renee Reyes web page. I used the weight over the head method for building my nice rack. Three worn out Freightliner steering axle kingpins, cleaned and taped together with purple duct tape, makes a perfect weight for me.

I love waiting in line and seeing myself in the security camera monitors. My girls are not huge, but prominent and I have a nice phat girl shape. Thanks Renee!!! Booby hug. JodyAnn
