Anyone incorporating Just Dance into thier daily workouts? I have a Wii and have been doing the "Just Sweat" to get my heartrate up before I do my morning Abs. Any fellow dancers out there? :happy:

    My mom and i do it. I use it as just fun dancing, is till count it in my workouts but i usually do my p90x and then dance. I really dance to get my mother working out. We have fun and laugh at each other looking like goofs. Just Dance is a great workout and it's fun!

    My 9 year old daughter and I do it also. It may just be that I am out of shape, but doing 30 minutes of that gets my heartrate up for sure! I count it in my daily workout totals also. :ohwell:

    Yeah I love it too! Just Dance 2 is the one I have too, Just sweat is pretty good, you get to set a goal for the week and it logs your progress, the only thing I don't like is that you have to choose the songs one at a time, I wish you could pick them all ahead of time so that you don't have to stop...pick a song...start.

    I love ALL dance :)

    We got a Wii this last Christmas. My Daughter loves Dance Dance revolution and so we got it for our family. It inspired me to get off my butt. When I first started I couldnt go more then 15 minutes, but I am up to 45 minutes in workout mode and now I am following in by Zumba Fitness. I love knowing that I am getting a workout all while I am having a blast with my children!

    Me! I do it when I don't feel like 'exercising'. It's such great fun and I work up a great sweat in just half an hour!

    Yes! We are a 'Wii' family! lol We all enjoy it so much, that our library has grown from JD2, to JD3, JD Summer, and ABBA experience. I still want to get the Black Eyed Peas one too! lol

    It really is a great way to exercise....it's so fun! It's convenient too cause we're indoors from the snow n' cold, plus it's family time.

    It's too bad we can't share video on here...we could show off our moves, challenge each other etc (for fun of course :wink: :happy: )

    To quote Lmfao....."Everday I'm Shufflin"

    I LOVE Just Dance 3 as a workout. I've been doing it every morning since Jan 1st. for about an hour every morning and I lose about 1050-1300 calories just dancing. And in 3 weeks i've lost 10 lbs. So im pretty excited about that! My 8yr old son was the one who wonted it for Christmas and now I use it more than him! LOL....

    I enjoy dance a few times a week for an hour at a time.
    In my mind I look like Justine Timberlake - I'd hate to ever see a video of me dancing though.

    The one things nobody can say is that I am not getting a great workout!

    And for me that's enough.

    I have a life-long aversion to exercise. Life long. We got the kids Just Dance 3 for Christmas, and I have to say, it is the most fun I've ever had exercising. Just Dance 3 has a workout thingy, which you can set up for a week at a time, and choose between the equivalent of walking, running, or swimming for 30 minutes a day. SO. MUCH. FUN. I love it, and walk away dripping sweat and jelly legs, and can't wait to do it again. I'm glad I'm not the only one that uses it for exercise.

    We got a kinect a few weeks ago and JD3. It is so fun! Husband and I had a dance off last night. I totally won ;) but only bc our doberman kept trying to dance with him when it was his turn.

    I sometimes wish we didn't have to stop either, but then the break in between kinda makes it feel like an interval workout.
