    Why would anyone even want a dancer's body?

    I understand what you mean - I was a heavy duty weight lifter for a long time. I needed (and had) a spinal fusion and had to change my exercise plan (EVERYTHING). I now do Pilates with some Ballet moves and my muscles look less compact and bulky; they appear longer and leaner. Plus I no longer have that weight lifters thick neck!

    I understand how these pictures show a dancer with gigantic muscles but dancing is their lives. I was just saying that the Pilates exercises made me look thinner and less bulky. Probably longer because my posture is different!

    Well, this DVD sounds interesting to me and like I might enjoy it. Thanks to the OP for the suggestion! :smile:

    Reading back through the comments I see a bunch of PMS sufferers must be on the loose. If you don't want to do a dance workout then why did you come in to comment? Does EVERYTHING HAVE to be an argument? Why do you people insist on coming out to inflict yourselves on others for no reason other than your poor little egos need a feeding? Grow up and stop looking for reasons to pick fights with others.

    I'm sorry, I thought the OP posted this question to get more information and understanding, not to have a bunch of people prancing around shouting nonsense and congratulating themselves on their ignorance.

    It wasn't a question, it was a recommendation for a DVD. The absence of a ? in the thread title should have given most people the clue that she wasn't asking for advice. But then a small detail like that wouldn't stop most MFP posters from posting the same old rubbish.
