WHAT'S YOUR WORKOUT?


There are many different ways to work out....






These are just a selection that I found online...I'm sure there are many more ways to workout.





And the most popular of all....

walking, jogging, running!


THIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE:

Part 1: What is your favourite way to workout?

Part 2: Challenge yourself to try a new method of workout for one week...and let us know what you tried and how it turned out :)



My favourite workout is walk aerobics. I have 2 dvds which contain a total of 8 different workouts. 15 minutes = 1 mile. I mix & match workouts so my muscles don't get used to the same movements. I've gotten as far as 3 miles at a time. I also use hand weights while working out...I started with 1 lb. and am up to 3 lbs. now.


As for part 2 of the challenge, I'm going to try out some beginner's yoga and I've got a cardio dance dvd to try out :)


NEXT WEEK'S BLOG: A Slice of Life

DISCLAIMER: Whenever I use the word DIET in my blog posts I am in no way suggesting that I have invented/discovered some miracle system to lose weight. Whenever I use the word DIET, I am simply substituting a single word to replace the longer phrase EATING HEALTHIER THAN IN THE PAST.

    1. Have fun with it...that stuff is hard!!

      LOL...tried out the cardio dance dvd this morning...I'm way too uncoordinated for those moves...and my memory is terrible, couldn't remember the moves at all...I must have looked like a drunk relative at a wedding :)

    2. I was the same way when I started using turbo fire, you just need to do it a few times until you learn the moves, then eventually you don't look like a drunk relative.

  2. Yeah I stay away from any dance moves... I first of all don't have rhythm of any kind.... so I wouldn't be able to keep up to a beat and then to remember where to put my feet... forget about it. I'll have to stick to WATP DVD's when I get the urge to move... so far it hasn't hit me...
