Saturday - Excercise Challenge
Aerobic dancing involves any kind of exercise put to music and can include everything from country music line dance aerobics to hip-hop dancing.
Aerobic Dancing -
Warm-up - Start off moving to something slow for about 5 minutes which will prepare you for more vigorous activities. Starting an aerobic routine too quickly can lead to injuries.
High Impact - After warming up, your main aerobic routine should last about 20-30 minutes. If you're just starting your exercise routine, it's better to exercise for a longer period of time at a slower pace than going all out until you feel like you're going to drop dead.
Cool Down - Spend the last 5 minutes of your aerobic dance routine cooling down and relaxing. This will give you a chance to stretch your muscles and let your heart rate slowly come down.
So what have you done today?

Hi Mary!
I still haven't gotten my new tapes yet - they're at the post office nearby where I work, so I guess I won't get them until Monday.
I did the 40 minute WATP WalkBlaster Sculpt and Burn this morning...yowee...I don't think I'll be able to walk tomorrow. Lots of lunges and squats - I probably should have taken it a little easier.
I think I'll do the 2 mile WATP high calorie burn later on - no lunges or squats!
Hugs,
Nancy
