i have noticed i have become more muscular in the abdominal region even with out exercise, and would like to tone up the rest of the body to match it. my legs were always pretty muscular anyway.
so my questions are:~
1. how soon in relation to exercise does one have to take insulin for this to happen.
2. does the insulin have to be given just in the region one desires muscle mass increase (i'm thinking weight trainers here)
3. is there anything else i need to know?
one of my blood results (it was with the hdl/ldl/cholesterol ones) showed as a minus figure which the doc said would increase with exercise.
so i've got an exercise bike coming next week, and really want to start to get fit again. i'm not rich so paying for a gym or yoga or swimming is out of the question...the tins of beans for weights are looking good  |
Shabbie,
Hope the bike is working out for you! I have one at home and sit it in front of the TV and watch all my DVRed shows, it's great!
An inexpensive piece of equipment is an exercise ball - I know here in the US they run around $10-15. It has many uses and you can google different exercise. You could use it while lifting the tin cans! Good luck with the exercise!
