What 15 minutes a day of bodyflex did to my body

“6 months ago, I went to the city where I spent my childhood for a meeting with the school class. I hadn’t seen my classmates for a long time and I was nervous, mainly because the years haven’t been very kind to me. I was full wrinkles, cellulite and had gained more than 11 kg. But that night, my life changed. Firstly, I met my future husband. Secondly, he made me learn what the method is bodyflex🇧🇷

Today, I want to share a little bit about my journey towards change thanks to this method, and how it profoundly affected my personal life. I hope it makes you reflect a little on your life and manage to show how important it is to change some of our habits to feel healthier.

O bodyflex is an exercise system invented by an American housewife and mother of 3 named Greer Childers. After giving birth to her third child, she gained a lot of weight. Because of personal problems, low self-esteem and inability to choose clothes that look good on her, Greer tried many different methods to lose weight, but none of them brought real results. It was then that she decided to create her own exercise technique. After 3 months she was already wearing 5 sizes too small.
