| Description: | SHADOW SHRINKING EXERCISES - NO. 2 Nice exercise sequence - demonstrated by the very supple Olivette, devised by British physician & author Dr. Harold Dearden. Olivette doing exercises devised by Harold Dearden "the well-known Psychologist and Author". "Continuing our efforts to get that "slim-girl feeling" today we make an attack on the muscles of the back and side - but don't forget, less haste, less waist." Stretching exercises consisting of picking up, putting down and ringing a small bell. Olivette does lunges, toe touches. "All Eve's desiring to stay supple, try this exercise. It will help you acquire both grace and a willowy back." One of the exercises necessitates Olivette putting her hand between her legs as she crouches, she reaches backward through her legs and rings a bell on the floor. Leg stretches. As Olivette performs another exercise lying on the floor and swinging her legs over to ring the bell an intertitle reminds us: "A roll on the floor is worth two on the hips". Leg lifts. By the way; she goes through all this exercise routine wearing shoes w/ heels! | |
