....Agree! As well, you should not keep your head in front of your 
shoulders and avoid looking down whenever possible.. tuck your 
coccyx under to avoid arching your lumbar spine and as a rule keep 
your body facing the weight as your power comes from your center and 
if you turn your glance away, your body will follow...And don't hold 
your breath... we all do this unconsciously, but it has 
repurcussions in our body's holding patterns, and often leads to 
unhappy muscles, craving oxygen....
Good luck!

Hey Deeyala!
Figures :) You look like Cleopatra :) Except without all the 
braids!
I used to date a lovely guy who was actually Coptic Egyptian... I 
loved his accent... He had green eyes and medium dark/light 
skin...What a guy! He always called me "Deebee". It was cute 
:)
Here in Great Neck, NY, where I live, there is a huge Persian 
population... Farsi is the second most spoken language in the area, 
after English..
Have a great afternoon!
Peace,
Deb :)
