I was jus wondering did anyone have any suggestions? I normally do Zumba, Taebo, and/or run or walk but I want to try something new. I like switching it up so that I don't get bored with the same thing daily.

    I have recently fell in love with Kettle Bells. There are several different fitness people out there doing them. I started low and now am going to get the Kettle Worx.

    This may sound strange, but I love to use my hula hoop! It took a while to get back into it, but its sooo fun to do and burns a lot of calories!

    Body Pump. Weight/strength training to music. A great class.

    Also I've heard great things about Hot Hula.

    I have recently rediscovered the joys of childhood play! Get out a jump rope, Hula hoop, etc...and go to town! It's fun and you'd be surprised how many calories you burn having fun!!!

    :laugh: I agree - I can only do about 10 minutes of Wii boxing before my arms start hurting and I break out into a sweat!

    I have Michael Jackson the Experience for the Wii. I LOVE it! It's a great workout. I burn around 300-400 calories an hour depending on which songs I dance to.

    It was a gift for Christmas and I have yet to open it. I'm going to try it this weekend.
    Thanks!

    IEEAV,

    I am doing a kettlebell program right now. They are great for cardio and strength. It looks like a connonball with a handle on top. TurboFire is a great cardio program. One thing you all could try is to see if any Beachbody fit clubs are in your area. They are group workouts that are FREE! We do all kinds of programs at ours and people really enjoy them.

    The most fun I've ever had working out was a kickboxing class I took while in college. Maybe it's because I'm a sucker for action movies, but I had so much fun beating up the air. It was also quite challenging for me (but in a good way!).

    My gym offers Turbokick, it's fun but it kicks your @$$. I also love going to spinning/cycling classes, the music is great so that helps with the fun/motivation factor. I also love going to step aerobics classes-again, for me it's all about the music. If I love it, I'll keep moving!

    Group workouts are always fun!! Kickboxing is pretty popular. You can do a search for local fitness groups or classes around your area with an online search. :happy:

    I totally do the same! Just Dance always tricks me into exercising, I always end up sweaty and worn out while still having fun :)

    If you already have a Wii, you can buy an $7.99 monthly membership to NetFlix and enjoy all the different "Instant Viewing" workout programs they have. Plus, you can see a bunch of movies and TV shows... Family Guy is one of my favorites :laugh:

    You won't ever be bored. :flowerforyou:
