The Intu-Flow Xtension was suggested to me by someone on the dragondoor forum. I do kettebells about 3 times a week and have doing so for the last few months, I love them.

I have worked on my diet, I know what I need to eat the portions ect. I have some stuff going on in my family that is stressing me. My problem is I am an emotional eater. I am snacking a lot in the evenings, from boredum/stress. I can be pretty hyperactive, so I figure instead of picking up a bag of doritos I can do some activity to release some energy.

My initial thought was to do some ballistic kb drills, but I was concerned about overtraining, hence the Intu-Flow Xtension was suggested to me. It definately interests me. The Intu-flow definately sounds like it could benefit me. I have read about clubbells previously and found them intrigueing. The xtension definately seems like a good introduction to them.

I am very uncordinated and it is very hard for me to follow quick complicated movements when I'm trying learn them. I have no martial arts background whatsoever. I just want to make sure that the dvd's are set up for the uncordinated as myself, and is easy for someone with no experience. Thanks for your help in advanced.

Maria,

You will have no problem following Intu-Flow. It is set up as an incremental system that is complete within itself. I know that the Clubbell training is suductive, however, the joint mobility training is a core fundamental element to CST. Take your time with the program so that you can recover and sophisticate. You will soon develope coordination that will surprise and delight you.

Welcome, Maria. I think you will be fine with Intu-Flow at level 1. I work with people who also describe themselves as uncoordinated and every single person has been able to do every single movement. The movements are taught from the ground up. Now that doesn't mean they feel comfy yet, wait till you get to the arm waves! But we all were laughing that being able to do it and being perfect are two different things at the start. :lol:

Also like Bao said, if you want to talk about the stress eating we can do that too. In my experience it can be addressed from two directions: making sure we get enough of the good stuff in so you're not even tempted, and then if you are anyway, what to do.

Maria,
emotional eating,like any other uncontrolled eating is a result of improper diet, I have found that following the Paleo Diet is helpfull..you can google Paleo Diet and research this diet, it is life changing and peels back the aging process.
