    Awesome tips everyone.

    Now, real question, is it weird if a guy does Zumba? I have heard it is a great workout, nice music and a lot of fun to sweat your butt off while having a good time.

    Also, thoughts on starting Yoga for a male.

    Feel free to add me as well...I need all the support I can get.

    Go for the Zumba! I found that yoga didn't help as much as running, lifting, or the other exercises I like. My advice: stick with Zumba.

    Feel free to add me as well (actually, anyone answering here should feel free to add me!). I like the accountability that comes from having friends along my weight loss journey. I'm 32 from MD, and just trying to lose what I gained back over the holidays. Spent a year on another online weight loss program and lost 35 pounds, hoping to find the same support here (and to give it to others as well). Good luck to you!

    I've never tried Zumba, by my cousin is an instructor, and has been encouraging me to try. She says that lots of men do it and love it. It is definitely a better calorie burn than Yoga. I personally love Yoga, and I do it twice a week for an hour each time. I do it at home, and it is great in between days that I do more strenuous workouts and need to stretch those muscles. I recommend if you want to start out at home, try Rodney Yee's videos (I like Yoga Burn and Abs Yoga for Beginners). If you love it, try Bob Harper's Yoga for the Warrior...it's amazing :-)
