Ndazama iKlasi yokuzilolonga ngobuso bam

• Uphengululo lwe

Ukusuka kwi-bootcamp ukuya kwi-barre ukuya kwii-Pilates sineeklasi ezininzi zokuzinikela zokugcina zonke izihlunu emzimbeni wethu zikwimo yencam ephezulu. Kodwa kuthekani wethu ubuso? Ewe, njengoko bendisandula ukufunda, sinezihlunu ezingama-57 kwindawo yethu yobuso enokuthi (kwaye kufuneka) ithoniswe njengawo wonke umzimba wethu. Kwaye kutshanje, bendinethuba lokwenza kanye loo nto: zama iklasi yokuthambisa yobuso. Kwiveki ephelileyo, ndithathe iklasi yeFaceLove Fitness ukubhiyozela ukumiliselwa kweClinque's Sculptwear, umgca 'wolusu lolusu ebusweni'. (Ewe, kwavakala ngathi kukuphambana nathi ekuqaleni!)

Yenziwe nguRachel Lang, ugqirha we-esthetician, kunye noHeidi Frederick, i-massage Therapist, iFaceLove Fitness izisa ulwazi oluphambili kulusu lomzimba. Xa sicinga ngokuchasa ukuguga, sigxile kakhulu kwizicoci ezibizayo kunye neeserum (ezimangalisayo ngokwazo), kodwa ngokukaLang noFrederick, kukho omnye umthombo ongasetyenziswanga wolutsha. 'Ngokusebenza' ubuso bethu-sisebenzisa izibonelelo zokuthambisa ukusebenzisa izihlunu phantsi kolusu-sinokuthi sichaze ulusu, sandise ukujikeleza kunye nokuhamba kweoksijini, kwaye senze ivolumu engaphezulu ukunciphisa imigca, sinceda ukulwa ulusu kunye ne-atrophy yemisipha eyenzeka ngokwendalo njengoko sineminyaka yobudala (eqala kwangoko kwiminyaka yethu yamashumi amabini!). Iiklasi zikwabanga ukuba zenza ngcono ukusebenza kolusu lwethu ukwenza iimveliso esele sizisebenzisa zisebenze ngcono. (Kule nqaku, jonga ezi Zisombululo zokuGuga eziNgenanto yakwenza neMveliso okanye uPhando.)

Ke, yintoni kanye le yenziweyo lo msebenzi-umthambo okhokelwayo wemizuzu eli-15 ukunceda ukuqeqesha izihlunu zobuso bam-zibandakanya? Ukwenza amaqashiso nobuso obungaqhelekanga, ngokusisiseko. Ndincamise ulwimi lwam ngaphandle, ndancanca imilebe yam ngaphakathi, ndatyhafa, ndancancisa, ndenza incindi yam, ndenza uncumo olumangalisayo, nokunye okuninzi. Masithi ndifumene ukujongwa ngamehlo amnyama kwisebe lezithambiso le-59th Street Bloomingdale. Mhlawumbi kungenxa yokuba ndandineminyaka engama-23 ubudala phakathi kweqela labantu abadala. (Nangona, abasunguli bebango lokuba iiklasi zabo azenzelwanga naliphi na iqela elithile, kwaye ubudala babathengi buqala kwi-20 ukuya kwi-80s.)

Izixhobo eziqhelekileyo zokuzilolonga, njengesangqa sePilates kunye neebhendi zokumelana nazo zazibandakanyekile ekuncedeni ukomeleza kunye nokuqeqesha izihlunu zobuso. I-roller contraptions-efana ne-foam roller yobuso bakho-yaye yasetyenziselwa ukukhuthaza ukujikeleza kwegazi kwindawo yamehlo kunye nokunciphisa izangqa ezimnyama kunye nokukhukhumala. Sikwazisebenzisile izandla zethu ‘njengezinto zokukhululeka zasimahla’ ukwenza ukunganyangeki ngelixa si pulsed (uhlobo olufana noludidi lwebarre) amashiya ethu ukukhuthaza izihlunu ngasemva kwamehlo, kuthiwa ukuzigcina zisempilweni, ngelixa zikhazimlisa kwaye zithambisa imigca ejikeleze amehlo.

Ngelixa le klasi yayisisifundo esifundisayo ukunceda ukwazisa ubuchule obunokwenziwa wedwa, okunye 'ukusebenza' okunikezelwa yiFaceLove kufana namava afana ne-spa apho uhleli khona esitulweni kwaye uvumele iingcali zikwenzele umsebenzi. Kwaye kunye nomqeqeshi wakho, ungenza ngokusesikweni ukuba zeziphi iindawo ofuna ukugxila kuzo.

Izinto endizithathayo? Hayi, ndandingaqaqanjelwa ngengomso, kodwa ndandizazi ngakumbi izihlunu zobuso bam ngendlela endandingazange ngayo ngaphambili. Ngelixa ndingenakukwenza ukuzilolonga ngobuso kube yinto eyenzeka rhoqo kwikhalori yam, ndifunde umthambo olula obonakala ufanelekile ukuzinikela kwemizuzu emihlanu ukuya kweli-10 ngosuku. Ndiphinde ndafunda okuninzi malunga neenzuzo zokuphululwa kobuso ngokubanzi, kunye nendlela yokuyiphumeza kwindlela yam yokuhlambela. Esinye isitshixo esithathwe kubaseki? Ungoyiki ukuba rhabaxa kakhulu kwaye ngenene ungene apho kwaye uphulule ulusu ngelixa usebenzisa iimveliso zokukhathalela ulusu-iyakwenza ukuba igazi lihambe kwaye ugcine izihlunu zakho zisebenza.

Iklasi okwangoku ifumaneka kuphela kwiFaceLove Fitness 'kwiNew York City shop shop (enevenkile esisigxina ye-5th Avenue kwimisebenzi), kodwa ungazama ngokwakho ngeevidiyo zeYouTube (khangela nje' ukubhucungwa ubuso ') nangokwenza iodolo izixhobo zokuphulula kwiAmazon. Kwaye kunye neenkampani ezinje ngeClinque kunye ne-L'Occitane yokutsiba kuloliwe wokuzilolonga ebusweni, siqinisekile ukuba ukhathalelo lolusu luhlangabezana nomkhwa wokuqina komzimba luqala nje ukuqala.
