I found a new routine all together that I think I will do for a while. Its dance cardio and A LOT of fun. It\u2019s basically 2 videos each about 13-14 minutes long, which translates to just north of 20 minutes. (Perfect!) And they work your body without heavy strain.<!--more--><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Even without weights and resistance training, I was sweating like a pig five minutes in. I could feel the muscle groups each exercise was working it got my hear racing in a snap. And best of all it was <em>fun<\/em>. The downside is that it needs a lot of space so I had to wait for folks to retire for the night so I could use the living room, but that\u2019s a little thing.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Actually, now that I think about it, it was more a mix of kickboxing and dance than just dance, but it felt like dance because of the rhythm. The lady has flavor and such great energy, I can\u2019t help but want to keep going, which is always the kind of feeling you want to have when we are talking exercise. (Did I mention it was fun?)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The underside of this is I wasn\u2019t doing any specific spot training exercises. Things like squats, lunges, crunches, leg-ups\u2026which is basically much of what my last work out was made up of. And while I do feel some concern about this, I\u2019ll say, and I may have mentioned before that I\u2019d already been doing the work outs for so long I felt like I had more or less stagnated.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">And on the same note, I had been thinking for a while that now that I had built much of the muscle (because that\u2019s what these exercises helped do) the next thing to do next is find a mostly, or full cardio workout to use these muscles to get rid of the stubborn fat. (We\u2019re talking wings, back fat, thunder thighs \u2013these have been disappearing slowly though, and the bane of all of them; belly fat)<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If I think about it really, dance cardio, aerobics and the like are probably the best for this. You can do it in groups, it really wrings you out, like you will be drenched and best of all, and you will have fun doing it on top of adding some serious dance moves to your arsenal.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I\u2019m so psyched up right now, that I\u2019m having to be weary that I don\u2019t \u00a0overdo it and burn out again like last time. I want to add one more though, for a <em>little<\/em> more wring. I mentioned that it was mostly kick boxing, but I was thinking I want to add a ten minute actual dance cardio vid at the end to finish with a bang. 30 minutes isn\u2019t too much right? I don\u2019t think I want to go up to 40 again.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I\u2019ve come to the realization that 40 is just not optimal for daily. Maybe on alternate days\u2026 for me at least. I don\u2019t know about anyone else though. People are different. With my daily activities being what they are, I think 30 is toeing the line exactly between steady and unsustainable. But \u2026 let\u2019s just see how this goes first.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I\u2019ll see you guys next post!!!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I found it!!!
