Full Body Workout With Toning Tube
Those who are regular readers of fitnessvsweightloss, know well that I am a die hard fan of Leslie Sansone and I can’t think of weight loss without her exercises and walk at home program. I love doing five and four mile walks with her and my recent favourite is her exercises with toning tube band. So since I had decided to do some toning band and hand weight exercises too so bought this toning tube online. Now I am not going to talk about Leslie Sansone any more because if I start I can’t stop and this post instead of being about toning tube will become toning tube with Leslie Sansone. LOL
Why Toning Tube?

- You’ll only need one tube to do various exercises.
- Its portable and can be carried along wherever you travel.
- Personally speaking there is one more reason that I like toning tube… Its vibrant colour… Mine is fluorescent green.

Toning Tube Exercises
When I was losing weight with walks, jogs and low carb diet; I realised that my upper arms’ skin had started dangling, the moment I moved my arms up. This was one sight I hated. So decided to do use toning tube for exercising my upper arms. Toning tube come in three types.
Light Resistance
Medium Resistance
Heavy Resistance
Now since I have vowed never to take any professional help from any trainer or gym (no offence intended but i believe that its my battle and I must fight it on my own) so my best bet is Google.

What an ecstasy after a sweaty back wrecking brisk walk. You can buy Toning Tube from here..http://www.flipkart.com/
