It's not a secret that I have struggled with my weight throughout my life. I have to work diligently to stay in a healthy shape. I hate dieting and I like to eat. So I have to work out. I used to get on my elliptical machine and run for forty minutes every day. It worked for a while ( a year or so) but it was just working my leg muscles and it was boring. There is a Jazzercise center only about two miles from my house, so I joined.
I had no idea that I would love it so much, and that the workout would be so challenging at the same time. We dance to super fun pop songs, current hits as well as past-era classics, but we also do some super challenging strength training on floor mats or standing with hand weights. Each 50 minute class includes cardio, strength, and stretching exercises. There is an addictive positive energy at Jazzercise. It's a safe place with no pretension. I can relax, let loose, and focus on myself for 50 grand minutes. It's a stress relieving, mood-lifting, booty-tightening good time.
On average, I hit about 4 Jazzercise classes a week. Since joining in mid January I have seen some definite changes in my physical appearance. My arms are smaller and more toned, my waist is a little trimmer, my butt is lifted a little higher, my "girls" are a little perkier, my legs are a little stronger.

No dieting, just good ole fashion exercise.
