    Honestly I fell in love with lifting about 2 months ago. I look forward to it every day when I head to the gym!

    I know you will laugh and/or roll your eyes, but I do Jazzercise and it is AWESOME, so much fun, such a total body workout and NOT AT ALL what you imagine it to be (most ppl think of the 80s leotards & leg warmers). Super fun music, super cool and very tough choreography, strength training, HIIT, you name it, we've got it.

    Look on Groupon for good prices for lots of local options . There can be boxing, martial arts, dance, all sorts of things you might not have considered. It got me started bouldering and I love it! It's so much fun I am sad I need aso much rest between sessions.

    Try some stuff you might never have thought about before!

    have you tried 'sweating to the oldies' with Richard Simmons? There are quite a few full workouts on youtube from back in the 80s and not only are they hilarious and fun, they are actually a really good cardio sequence if you go full out with it.

    Thanks for the recommendation- I have it lined up on YouTube for this afternoon.

    If you liked TaeBo back in the day, you would definitely enjoy Turbo Jam or TurboFire. I am not affiliated with Beachbody, just enjoy their programs. And you could also look for class versions, I think it is called Turbo Kick in gyms.

    I don't think anybody has mentioned Zumba yet, so I'll give it a plug. My wife had been doing it for a while, and when I finally tried it I was hooked. Yeah, there's a bit of a learning curve, but once past that it's a good time. YMMV, but at the end of an hour-long class I'm sweating profusely, wondering where the hour went. I'm primarily a runner and I also ride a bike, and I find that Zumba incorporates a lot of side-to-side movement that's absent from what I primarily do. I attribute at least some part of my ability to remain injury-free (as I hurtle towards 50 years old) to doing Zumba. My $.02.

    Another vote for bike riding. You forget you're exercising when your face hurts from smiling.
