Happy New Year to you
all!
So did you make a New Year’s resolution? I did and like many
others I intend to loose weight... Not an original resolution I grant
you but I currently weigh in at 15.5 stone and according to the NHS I
should be around 12 stone so I am making that age old New Year’s
resolution this year. You would think it would be easy to find time
to exercise and stay fit when you work for yourself from home but
this hasn’t actually been the case for me and never allowing myself
any time for any real physical exercise has taken its toll and my
shape reflects this. Combine this factor with snacks consumed while
waiting for paint to dry or waiting for a reply from clients and you
have a potential long-term problem and that is why I have decided to
do something about it before it gets too late, however I will not be
joining Weight Watchers or a gym I shall be enlisting the aid of
Linnea Quigley and her Horror Workout Video!
There are hundreds of
exercise videos on the market but this is the only one that will do
for me! In the late 1980s
Scream Queen, Linnea Quigley star of Return of the Living Dead,
Silent Night, Deadly Night, Hollywood Chainsaw Hookers and Sorority
Babes in the Slimeball Bowl-O-Rama teamed up with Kenneth J. Hall the
man responsible for Puppet Master and created “the scariest
exercises video ever made”!
Released on video in 1990 it really
needs to be seen to be truly appreciated, after a brief pre-title
shower scene Miss. Quigley reminisces about her career in front of a
fireplace (showing clips from some of her movies such as Creepozoids
and Assault of the Party Nerds) before starting her first workout.
Her attire is somewhat different to what I would wear (hers comprise
of stockings and a metal-studded bra but as she herself asks, “Would
you want to watch me work out in a baggy sweat suit?”) afterwards
she goes out jogging past a cemetery and is chased home by a horde of
zombies that she later has performing aerobics by a pool! When that
is finished with she has some of her girlfriends over for a slumber
party and having watched more clips from her movies, the unhealthy
popcorn becomes an issue for concern and leads us into another
aerobics session before our story ends much the way most slumber
parties in the 1980’s ended, a bloody mess! Running at exactly one
hour, remove the movie clips and links you have decent little workout
video there! There are numerous
sites online that offer tips for self-employed people to keep in
shape they all stress the importance of prioritising exercise over
everything else and keeping to it, even if I didn’t feel like doing
it but they say that the best time to exercise is in the morning
before checking e-mails as your mind is clear so that will be the
first step, making myself do it so there you go, my New Year’s
resolution for 2018 get fit and loose weight following the Linnea
Quigley's Horror Workout every morning. Wish me luck and Happy New
Year to you all!

Happy New Year, AJ. Post a photo of yourself when you're skinny.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year sir! IF I get skinny count on it (I might just have my photo taken wearing a large pair of trousers anyway)
ReplyDeleteYou can do it! I'm trying to Be Less Mim this year - I'm 14 stone and should probably be 8.5-10. Though my motivation is mainly to get into my favourite clothes again. Santa brought me a Bollywood workout vid, and I'm actually going to use my gym membership rather than just wasting the money... no studded bra, mind, baggy sweats for me!
ReplyDeleteExcellent! In this post I skimmed over eating less junk and possibly making use of my bike from time to time but it will MOSTLY be this work out! We can support each other along Mim! Good luck to you x
