in Fitness and Exercise
OK, Today I started using my kids Wii, and started doing Just Dance. Only did 5 minutes before the contractors showed up. But tomorrow I hope to get in at least 15 minutes.... but only when nobody can see me do it!

    just dance is such a good calorie torcher! i play it all the time, but my boyfriend refuses to. I dont care what i look like cause its making me sweat like CRAZY! I do all of my workouts at home so i would prob feel uncomfortable doing any of them if someone was present.

    I do zumba on the wii but probably would never go to a zumba class! I will also only run at home I won't run on a treadmill at the gym.

    I just got Just Dance 3 for Wii, and it's fun! The best part is that my husband does it with me... even the Shakira song lol. I'm pretty sure I look better shaking my hips than he does, but we both have fun. I wouldn't mind doing most of them in front of people, except that some of those dances are a little racy for me to be comfortable with anyone but hubby watching lol.

    I don't like doing exercises I'm insecure about and feel like I should be better at, with others watching. I wouldn't bust out pushups at the gym; those are at-home only! I also get nervous about moves like lunges because I'm afraid I'll get some embarrassing panty lines or a wedgie... makes me feel like a middleschooler but it's my fear!

    All of them. I refuse to do any exercise (besides walking) if I can sense someone in the room. When I workout at home I lock myself in my room and refuse to even let me son in

    Anything! I always feel like I'm being judged. I do everything alone, except for Aquasize, but we're in water to our necks , so you can't see anything anyway!

    Honestly, Nothing... If I can do Zumba while some guys are peering into the gym just waiting for us to get out so they can play basketball... I can do it in front of my husband with the Wii as well.. provided he doesn't laugh of course... :-p

    Anything involving jumping. I'm like the Michelin Man on a trampoline, but with lady parts. NO WAY I'm doing that in public.

    Lunges. I lose my balance and wobble all over the place. Happy to do them at home, even though cats add an extra dimension of risk to exercise.

    when I started I used to be this way about everything. weights, walking, jogging, swimming. everything. over time I started to gain confidence, feel better about myself and I stopped caring who saw me. on top of everything else I now regularly attend a Zumba class. 300+ lbs man doing Zumba with 20-30 other ladies. I'm not entirely alone though, theres's 1 other gentleman in my class. 60 yr old. and we represent well!

    That's what I do. My In-laws live with us so I'm too embarrassed to exercise in the living room. I need to get a lock for my door, I have no privacy. So I try to do them when in-laws are asleep, kids are at school and hubby has left for work. Lol!

    If I saw you- the only thing I would think is 'That guy has 'a certain bit of anatomy' of steel'. I'm too wimpy to even GO to a gym right now.

    probably jump squats and all those calisthenics whenever i decide to do them which is not very often.
    I do like to sprint outside but not jog.

    Zumba and running on a treadmill...I always look like I am either having a seizure or about to drop dead (People have actually asked me if I was OK) LOL
