Happy & Healthy New Year to all.

As 2009 approaches, I am reminded of why I love all kinds of exercising - walking, lifting weights, yoga and more! Energy has all to do with oxygen and as we move our bodies we breathe so much more deeply. Exercising clears your head, focuses your thoughts and emotions and keeps you strong. Being a physically capable and strong woman in my fifties just feels good.

Women ask me questions such as "if I workout, am I going to have bulky muscles?"
Answer -- " BIG NO" Developing large and bulky muscles has all to do with genetics and not weight lifting -- so don't be afraid.

In January, I will launch a new educational workshop for women - a program that has been stirring around in my head for years - and now out there. Being a strong women is sexy... so fear not -- start lifting weights and enjoy the benefits!

Women benefit from strength training in so many ways: here are just a few.

Retard the loss of bone density
Reduce body fat and manage weight gain
Improved physical ability for daily activities of life
Improved posture and balance
Decreased blood pressure


The best thing of all: women who lift weights develop a greater sense of self-confidence and positive body image.


BASICS OF BODYWORK FOR WOMEN

In 2009, I will turn 54 years old. There is only one difference between my strength and energy now and when I was younger...I appreciate it more now.

I want to help woman understand and appreciate how valuable being a strong woman can be and how good it feels... Muscles are great to have, so if you are thinking of working out and do not know how or where to begin --- this is a great program for you. If you live or work in NJ call me and join us starting Jan 29th.
Call 973-761-5758 or email risa@risaolinskycom.

Cost $199 for the four week workshop. January 2nd there will be a sign up on my website for all.

Happy New year
