"Hi my name is Angela Martindale and I'm talking to you about how to fight obesity in twelve weeks. Remember don't hang on, it's important to keep your hips in alignment with your body and your shoulders. When we hang on to the treadmill when it's going a little bit too fast, we hurt our hips and our lower backs. Because we don't ever walk holding something. So you want to let go, use your abs, pull those shoulder blades back, and press your chest out. You are accomplishing something and you should be proud of yourself. So now after about five minutes, you're going to take it up to two point three. And for the rest of your workout that's where you'll stay. Now again if you are feeling this in the back of your knees take it back down to one point five. Slow down your step and really start stretching out the back of those legs again. Take your time here and work your way up to forty five minutes, breathing deeply in and out of your nose, pulling in those abs, pressing the shoulder blades back and in no time you are going to be at your twelve weeks with less fat on your body, a toned abs, and burning calories and being proud of yourself."
