New YEAR New BOOTY: Week 1: Friday's Fit-Test

[XxGothSpikeXx]

you're so beautiful

[azmildman]

You know she wore that hat to cover up her hair she still hasn't combed out. Thought she was going to blow her heart up. Tonya, you were doing GIRL PUSHUPS and you still had trouble getting twelve. This shows how out of shape you were. Keep it up because you look so good now. I was the one telling you that your clothes were just too small. But after seeing this, I understand.

[azmildman]

You know she wore that hat to cover up her hair she still hasn't combed out.

[tarah86]

Keep going tonya. I'm going to keep looking at your video for more encouragement to lose my final 10lbs. I understand your tiredness during the exercise, but in the end your you will benefit from it.

[Dennisonluver111]

at least 6 mins lol

[pcynthia32]

Girl just give it up and go eat a sandwich. It is what it is! Just love you body the way it is.

[Chocl8]

You are so motivating. I was looking to buy a pair of those to buy last month. I will be buying a pair next week on payday.

[blondeatheart47]

your persistance is so inspiring

[GunStreets]

??????

[tacsavory]

good advise Tonya, good the heart rate should be up before starting? it get gives a higher energy level, to do more sets in of three's 10-15 count.

[iHateToRegister]

For me youre very sexy!

[tomken8dy]

I pump iron on a tilt table, heavier weights sitting in my chair and about 60 to 80 to 100, depending on mood and energy, pull ups on the trapeze over my bed.

I never measured my heart rate.

I just stop when I can't do any more.

GOOD LUCK, Tonya!

(Try it without the Santa hat :-)

[dakoolkid85]

tonya its hard to not think about sex, when you doing squats from behind. but keep it up, you doing well, you setting up an example for young kids.

[marchprncess]

ur so much fun! keep up the good work, I'll be checking back with ya! hugz, kristina

[nubianangel80]

tonya you look cute!

[TheFashionistaChic]

Talk about a Hot Mess! sheash!!

[TonyaTko]

@Fashionista what's a hot mess about it? Especially one which warrants your negative comment and a 2star rating? I'd LOVE to know

-TKO

[TonyaTko]

@Fashionista I tried to write you back in private, but you have friend-lock on, so it is befitting for you to write to ppl who are not on your friendslist but yu stop other people. Just to give a hint you pretty much have a problem with the fact that I am out of shape, laughing during my workout, and wearing a revealing top. So you gave me 2stars bcz you feel I am a Black buffoon who shouldnt have released this video to the public or at least not until I have a six pack. (Rolling eyes)

-TKO

[TonyaTko]

Cont. @ Fashionista: I really get sick of 'Black' ppl like you feeling that bcz we have the same color skin that you reserve the right to mandate & dictate how others should behave according to a standard they may or may not agree with. You are the late-comer and have NO idea what's goin on here. I am inspiring people to get in shape while they are out of shape and using my experience as a motivational example, instead of preaching back @ ppl once I've made it, we are taking the journey 2gether

[TonyaTko]

Cont. 2 @Fashion: Look at how mentally enslaved you are; UR using someone else's standard of beauty to IMPOSE upon me whether or not I deserve or should feel PROUD enough of my body to show my abdomen As-is. According to you, if I looked like the ppl in the mags or on TV THEN it would be appropriate. Don't you know before the renaissance women of full figures were revered, painted & renown? It wasnt until the 20's when Twiggy hit the scene that anorexic-tomboy look was coveted.

[TonyaTko]

Cont. 3@Fashion: I am PROUD of who I am, and I am BEAUTIFUL and unapologetic. See unlike you I don't let other people's ideals dictate how I should feel about myself. If that were the case I would probably don myself a fashionisa and covet all of the latest designs the INDUSTRY, comprised of people who don't LOOK like me, tell me what to adore. That and I may be like you trying to control what other people do and don't do according to my standard bcz I am controlled by others'.

[TonyaTko]

Cont. 4@Fashion: Look around. I have a pretty healthy fanbase comprised of thousands of other people who "get it." I represent the MAJORITY of Americans who are out of shape. At one point Blk ppl were told we weren't 'this' or 'that' enough to be on tv or magazines (Too dark, nappy, ugly etc) And now here you are 30 yrs later telling me I'm too ____. And you call ME a hot mess, with all of your images of white women's bodies in your favorites? If there ever was a hotter mess: Youre 'IT'

-TKO'd

[FabulousSamone]

LOL, even though this is so funny. I give you soooo much credit for doing this. I can not find the motivation and I really need to get healthier and in shape. Keep it up! Peace and Blessings.

[RipDogg8781]

CAN I BE YOUR PERSONAL TRAINER ?

[rdloco]

niice

[boomswsh]

your hands should also be leveled with your shoulders...or should i say underneath your shoulders...

keep it up, it will pay off=)

[runnyrunny999]

I gotta get back to run again,too. I can feel myself getting older every year! ^^;

[bffalcon]

Awesome cleveage, You need to make a Nude video,

2009, make it different!

[TonyaTko]

@bffalcon No, I should make a video about you getting blocked. Oh wait... no video needed, just a push of a button.

BLOCKED!

Oh wow, I've made a change for the '09 afterall... I got rid of you ;-)

-TKO

[CreativeSoulTV]

Good for you Tonya, I need to get back in the gym myself!

[DaTrAgGeRnAuT]

lmao your fat ass

[TonioSephora]

IM DIEINGGG!!!!!!!

I Loved IT!

[Roobin08]

yes Tonya baby keep pushin, i was doin them witchu lol...keep goin! i see u was strugglin too lmfao!!!i know how u feel cuz i used to do track and it was no joke baby hahaha! talk about 50 sit ups/push ups with 10 seconds in between! hard work!

[blackberry2u]

Why is your video out of synch?

[blackberry2u]

Tonya stop beating up on yourself, girl. You are hilarious without even trying to be. Luv ya chick!

[TonyaTko]

@blacberry I don't know why the video is out of synch, that happened with the last video I uploaded as well. I don't know what's going on with YT, or it could be on my end. My old camera would do that if I made a video longer than ten minutes. Maybe its a codec problem maybe its a youtube conversion problem. I don't know. Beats me

I am not editing my videos anymore as you can see... so this is straight out of the camera.

-TKO

[coffeesharp1]

OMG! This is The Most Funny Work Out Ever!

Man oh Man!LOL! LOL! Yah Gotta Love Tonya,Bless her Heart,Honey,you get an A for Effort,When you work out tonya,you get every one in the spirit and mood to work out ,Good job sugar,keep up the good work,because of you I have dusted of the jope rope and pulled the running shoes from the closet and im ready to get busy! uhhh Tommorrow,LOL!

[9swords]

Push it to the limit Tonya !

[madics12]

I think that you did the push-up backward the fist should be pointing toward your feet in the up position. To the sides going down. Seriously the Perfect Push ups and pull ups are no joke!! Stomach cramps, lay on your back and take deep breaths. Looking good!!! :-)

[TonyaTko]

Yeah, Madics you're right. This was my first time using them and I didn't know what I was doing. Last night when I was cleaning up I found an instruction booklet which show proper hand grip, direction and use. It even has a DVD! I'm going to watch that and get back to you guys. My arms are hurting SOOOOO badly today. I think I'm going to do a total body stretch video.

-TKO

[ultimoguerrero1973]

i like you the way you are bbw

[TonyaTko]

Um @ Ultimoguer, supposed I don't WANT to be a BBW? You may like a BBW, but I wasnt meant to be one, and I'm not going to be.

-TKO

[lynxybonkers]

I hope I'll do my fit test tonight (Saturday fit-test?) lol

I can't wait to see how I'm doing right now))))

[9pluto]

the video and the audio are way off

but its still a cool video

[xbuddiex]

lol

[bigbuzin555]

you wont burn many calories doing pushups . its good for building muscle, but not burning a lot of calories. it burns more carbs. maybe thats what you had in mind though. i know you wanna get your heart rate down. i think cardio is better for that.

[TonyaTko]

Im not trying to burn calories during this fit-test. But UR absolutely wrong if you think that I didnt start burning calories at an escalated rate & as a result I burned 700 calories more than usual; Both from doing this workout and having an accelerated metabolism for the rest of the day.

I really wish people who weren't SURE of their advice would stop giving it. This is how mis-information spreads. Who told u building muscles does not burn calories? That burns THE MOST calories of all!

TKO

[bigbuzin555]

you might start burning some at 1st because you didn't do it much. but those are anaerobic workouts. not really made for burning much calories. if you burned a lot of calories doing this, that just tells me you were doing this a lot. anaerobic exercises dont burn as much for the simple fact that your heart rate isn't going for long periods of time. you are building muscle and muscular endurance, and i myself do these workouts,but i was just hoping these aren't all you do.

[TonyaTko]

@BigBuzin, I know you mean well, but honey please Stop. You don't know what you're talking about. The anaerobic state is induced AFTER the aerobic state. When you exercise SO FAST and SO HARD that you escalate from Aerobic and enter An-aerobic where you are exercising hard and fast WITHOUT oxygen. Being in an anaerobic state can be good for short periods of time to build strength but is deteriorating physically if tried to maintain for longer. In short Anaerobic is HIGH INTENSITY w/o air.

-TKO

[TonyaTko]

cont. @BigBuzin, now what am I doing that is Anaerobic? And abt the calorie burn our body is trying to get into a state of fitness and I am SOOO out of shape that this 18 minute test made me burn 700 extra calories. So anybody who doesnt MOVE should be inspired to do so. As I get fit and heart beats better I will lose less cals from this. People lose LESS weight as they get closer to their natural body weight bcz their hearts r efficient & they are close to where their bodies want them 2b.

-TKO

[TonyaTko]

Lastly, I HOPE nobody thinks that this is my workout. This is merely a test that I will perform every week to demonstrate my fitness. Just because you mentioned that I will definitely do videos of my workout, which consists of 30-40 min of aerobics and 20-30 minutes of weight train 3x/wk.

I may be out of shape now but I ran track & weight lifted in HS/college and I know A LOT about exercise, eating & training. So don't let the fat fool ya. Stay tuned u will see changes rt b4 your eyes ;-)

TKO

[bigbuzin555]

just a misunderstanding. i saw you make videos before and this is all you were doing. im talkin last year. i too work out. and i've been working out since i was 16. i lost a lot of weight, about 40-50pounds in 7 months, and it sure as hell wasn't from these alone.

[TonyaTko]

You saw me making videos in 2007?? Anyhoo if you mean my last fitness competition you saw me do videos of me jumping on a trampoline, jogging outdoors and lifting weights. PLUS the friday's fit-test to measure my fitness.

BTW, a 16 year old male's metabolism is going to me MUCH different than a 30 yr old female's... jut FYI ;-) And what works for one person wont AUTOMATICALLY work for everyone else.

-TKO

[bigbuzin555]

yeah, umm didn't you do this last new years? why so shocked to have loyal subs?

[TonyaTko]

No, that wasn't last year darlin. That was earlier this year. I didnt start making videos till Nov 7, 2007. Before that I was a little hemmed-up. But thank you for being a loyal fan. Since you're so much in shape, why dont you do an exercise vid or two to show us how yu lost the weight ;-)

-TKO

[bigbuzin555]

no, im not ''so much in shape'' at all. do workout though. if i didn't, i might still weigh 260 pounds thats all. im not as in shape as im just trying to beat the diabetes that runs in my family. i think you made a new years resolution workout video last year. late of course, but i remember it

[TonyaTko]

@bigBuzin, sorry to hear about the history of diabetes. And no I didn't start the fat@ss fitness challenge till the spring. I did do a vdieo about new years resolution in which I mentioned I wanted to go to grad school, exercise more, meditate more, buy land in the west indies, and TRAVEL MORE :). But no there was no workout series last year. I've only been on Youtube for a year. Check all of my videos you will see the first post was last nov. Trust me... who would know bettr'n me ;-)

-TKO

[RyanM296]

well.......disturbing

[SylentWonder]

we Love you Tonya and you got our full support 100% Im so proud of t you that you want to live a health life style and encourage others to follow along in your fitness journey.

God Bless

-Erv

[rock999999999]

work hard ;)

[thedriz]

work it tonya hope you get what you desire

[07GSXR1G]

Hey Sis you are doing very well to be doing this without a partner, but if you had someone to help out with ya form and reps, also to motivate you it might help more. Once again you are doing great and very helpful and inspiring. By the way how was CHRISTmas for you and your family? Be Blessed

[TonyaTko]

Thanks 07, unfortunately most feats we attempt we will have to go at it alone. From watching this video I see areas where my form are lacking and I will correct that from the next video. Waiting for others is almost the #1 thing that keeps us back. I dont have anyone here, but I have the help and assistance of all of you out there! Thank you for your note

-TKO

[MissSierraMalone]

Girl Tonya I feel your pain. Keep up the good work ma.

[loupremo]

so if you can do this all in 2 mins, that means you are in shape?

[TonyaTko]

No, its just a fitness test to test how fit I become along the way. You will see what I mean when I do next week's video

-TKO

[TonyaTko]

Like I stated at the end of the video the goal is to get in more push-ups squats and situps while lowering the heart rate. That will be a test of how 'fit' I am

-TKO

[BeCoily3Paula]

Try leslie sansone's walk away the pounds DVD. Its very simple and it works out your entire body. I also have Denise Austins Boot Camp which is a little more advanced, but Ive found its easier as you just jump right in it. But I highly recommend those. I saw a difference very quickly in my body and how I felt.

[cute12121]

7:15 lmao

[TonyaTko]

hardee harrr harr. LOL. I hope you tried it after you finished laughing at my sprawl Cute12121. BTW, I clicked that time link and laughed too... but only bcz it went from me getting ready to try to me flattened out.

:)

-TKO

[SinnamonS]

Tonya the first 5 min of this video was tuff im embarrased for you LMAOOOOO and when u do squats your butt should be underneath you and not sticking out!!! But keep up the good work

[TonyaTko]

The way my trainer taught me to do squats was to go low and stick your butt out like you're going to sit in a chair. And unless you have grasshopper legs there is no way to squat and keep your booty tucked it... that... and you KNOW I'm so well endowed! LMAO

-TKO

[SinnamonS]

TONYA U MUST SUCK IN THAT BOOTY LOL BUT I GUESS like you said you cant! Oh keep up the good work

[cokonice]

Lmao! "whoooo its starting to get hot in here!" Lol that had me on the floor rolling! You sound like me when i'm working out... Shoot i really wanna get started but i have been procrastinating....

[coffeesharp1]

I lose weight faster and feel more Healthy doing cardiovasular type exercises,Jumpimg rope works really well,in conjuction with running or fast pace walking,I wonder how many heart beats per minute is too fast,that may put one in the danger zone for cardiac arrest for those of us that are starting a work out routine for the first time in a while? bottom line,if one wants to lose weight for real, try skipping rope ,it works great,i lose weight fast and I drop a couple of pants sizes doing this.

[junexXxbug]

me too, cardio all the way.

[keyokasmithisadoctor]

Hi Tonya,

I think you did a really good job! The fact that you showed how hard and/or discouraging it can get at times and still motivated yourself to finish is awesome. It's not about doing it perfectly, it's about DOING IT! PERIOD. I admire your willingness to share such an intimate and intimidating issue in a woman's life. Good Luck!

[2DamnConservative]

don't strain yaself over there but keep at it and you will be much better in a few weeks.

[tdiep]

you can walk up hill or jog up hill that help you get in shape.

hard to get A in school easy to get F

hard to be good than to be bad

It's hard, but it is good on the long run.

Never give up.

[tdiep]

If you want a harder push up you need to elevate your feet on chair or bed or whatever you want and you can feel the different. The fitness band work too. It help build your arm muscle and other.

You really don't need those push up thing.

[swedo23]

come on baby, go for it=) Keeping my fingers crossed for ya!

muah!

[masterpker101]

but dont worry im almost like that but im not im not in good shape at all either but still

[masterpker101]

you could have done 20+ pushups if you didnt stop

[TonyaTko]

MasterPker, if I COULD have done 20 push-ups... I wouldnt have stopped! LOL

-TKO

[masterpker101]

[1feistydst]

[BrokenAH]

oooh Tonya you were all kinds of flustered there girl haha. But hey check you out, you go get em!. I felt your pain during those push-ups eek. Happy Holidays and all the best, keep it up, you're doing good =]

[[x]]

[doctorrin]

Keep the technique together on them crunches! Form makes the function work!

[TonyaTko]

Yes, thank you doctorrin, I didn't realize until watching this video how BAD my form was, both during the crunches and the push-ups as well. Definitely need to work on that.

-TKO

[freddie19]

TONYA I APPRECIATE YOUR VIDEOS. i was 400 pounds n ive lost over 30 pounds for the new year so far, but your vids r encouraging, keep it up n i'll keep you posted with my weight loss process, i might do a collage by the end of april, thanx

[TonyaTko]

Wow! I am PROUD of you. What did you do? Let us know. Come over to the forum and meet some folks

-TKO

[KayNyne13]

Keep it up Tonya your looking good, Merry Xmas and Happy New Year to youtube's hottest girl ;)

[PictishPrince]

Do not be embarrassed at all. It takes just as long, if not longer, to take off the weight as it took to put it on in the first place. Keeping the weight off is your intent, I believe, and to do so properly you must lose it properly, meaning slowly and surely.

[chocolatetaster69]

you have a nice butt. please dont lose it. try pushups instead. (with me on the bottom.)

[doctorrin]

Keep it up!

Lose the push up assistants. They are harder than the regular way.

Crunches over sit-ups any day. Doing them quick helps lose the stomach versus building thick muscle there which can discourage some women cause they actually start looking like their stomach is inflating the way they work their stomach.

Don't worry about the commentary while you work out. You should do each exercise and only let yourself recover for 30 to 60 seconds. Keep the heart rate up.

Good luck, looks good!

[TonyaTko]

I actually like the push-up thingies they make it easier, and they relieve pressure on my wrists and support a clean natural movement for my hands during the push-up, so I am DEFINITELY Keeping them.

:)

[PictishPrince]

Am I the first to comment?

Hey yeah! You are first to comment! LOL.
