I ordered three more Bender Balls. My son is going to keep using the old one. So I need three more for me, my wife and daughter. My sixteen year old daughter is very weight conscious. Now that summer is coming she is going crazy with her dieting and exercising. I think she uses the Bender Ball even more than my son, who is a jock and is really into staying in shape. He told me his football coach doesn’t believe in “equipment” for working out, and wants his team to do all their sit-ups and push-ups the old-fashioned way, crunching away at those abs. Luckily the boys are young and the strain doesn’t hurt their backs. But my son said that since he started using the Bender Ball he is much better at sit-ups at football practice, and the coach even noticed. My son didn’t tell him its Bender Ball that’s making the difference, the coach is just too scary to talk to, says my son.

My kids told me they started exercising with the Bender Ball, and I will either have to wait until they are done with their exercising or buy another one. But I had a better idea! Instead of waiting for the ball, I’ll get another one for me and my wife, and we’ll all exercise together as a family! Isn’t that a great idea? The Bender Ball is so inexpensive and so much fun, I think it could really be a great family activity several times a week, and more fun even than a Wii, which my kids all want to get for next Christmas. Let’s see how the exercise goes.

I’m sorry to say, that I lost my job. But there is a bright side to this situation. My wife is still working, I am getting unemployment insurance, and I have a bit saved to cover us until I find another job, which I hope will be better than the last one, which was starting to make me crazy. I think part of the reason I was eating so much was because my boss was driving me crazy, and I was too depressed to do my exercises regularly. So now I have a chance at a fresh start.
So what am I gonna do? I’m gonna get my bender ball back from my kids and start working out with it like I was doing a few months ago. I hope my break from working will give me a chance to really get the look I want, and the good health that my doctor and my wife say is so important. Wish me luck.

I need to exercise, and the sooner the better! I want to diet, but I just haven’t got around to doing it. One thing I need is a method that will work, and that will get me motivated. Bender Ball might just be the way to go!

I don’t particularly like the color green, but it is growing on me. How? Why?
Because I am seeing green 4 times a week, and it is helping me lose weight and inches. (Okay, the green of money, especially Dollars is a good green, but that is different from the green I am describing!)
Bender Ball green is my color! I am using the Bender Ball to shape my abs (or rather lose weight and get into my clothes) and it is working. No back pain, no traditional crunches… the Bender Ball Method is the way to go.

I wanted to exercise with the Bender Ball, but my kids were playing with it!! They were kicking it around and throwing it to each other, and when I asked them for it they lay on the floor and started copying what they have seen me doing!
My kids are going to have better abs than I will! Now I have to share the Bender Ball with them!! Maybe I should just buy another Bender Ball? Never too soon to exercise, right? And sharing is caring, no?

I love blogging and surfing the internet, but sometimes it is painful. I don’t mean the time spent doing it, nor the question of what to type and write, but the physical pain!
I started exercising, and I went overboard! My abs are killing me! The Bender Ball Method is the way to go, but I didn’t follow the instructions! No wonder my exercise routine killed me, and now I have made a resolution – I will do the Bender Ball thing the Bender Ball Method way!

My kid turned 8 – good for him, bad for me!!
We had a birthday party for him with the family, and that meant cake and sweets etc. So of course I had to eat.
Then we had a party for him and his friends… again… I had to eat! So all that his birthday has done for me is make me feel older, and put on weight! What does that mean for me now? Two things, no, maybe three. Diet, exercise, and feeling fat. Of all those, feeling fat is the worst!
Solutions? Yes… I have solutions… the first of which is not to have any more birthday parties for a while… no problem, as no birthdays are happening for a while!

I am working on my physique and trying to lose weight. It is slow going. since I am having trouble controlling my eating, but the exercises themselves are doing wonders.
No time to write – gotta go use the Bender Ball and watch Leslee Bender!
