"dancing" on the treadmill

I was just wondering if I was the only one out there that dances when I'm walking on the treadmill. I set the treadmill at a comfortable pace & whatever song comes on my iPod, I keep time with my pace and definitely move my upper body "dancing". I definitely get more of a work out than what the computer tells me. My kids look at me like I'm crazy:laugh:

    I think it makes the treadmill more exciting & interesting, despite the looks & laughs!

    There is someone at our center that does something similar. Every time I see her, I think "that's the happiest crazy I've ever seen..."

    I'm so happy you posted this thread. I came across this recently and gave it a shot... at home. I felt UBER dorky but it was different and a challenge. Maybe I should do it again. (If I can get over how ridiculous it seems.) :)

    The treadmill I have access to is in the fitness center at the hotel I work at. We are so slow right now no one is ever in there. I can't wait to try it out!
