Are you tired of all the ways to lose weight and look great. Dieting, aerobics, exercises and cardio workouts can be hard work and boring sometime. So here's one way I know that is fun - Dancing ....yes, dancing your way to fitness.

Dancing is a great way to lose weight. Why else do you think that most professional dancers look great and have good figures. Look at Jennifer Lopez, the late Michael Jackson, Britney Spears, Kevin Bacon and even Fred Astaire who are all good at dancing. They must be doing something right. For one, dancing helps you to :


However as with other types of exercises, you should warm up and stretch before dancing. Just move within your own tempo, start with a slow number and build it to faster tempo to avoid straining and injuring your muscles. Slow down or stop when you are short of breath or exhausted.

Dancing provides a channel to be yourself. Its an expression of self through the beat of the music. Dancing is an entertaining activity you can do with your friends or partner. It elevates your moods by raising our endorphin levels allowing us to reduce stress.

Best of all you can do it anywhere, even in the comfort of your living room. You don't need any expensive gym equipments just some music. You can move to the beat of the music and get creative creating your own dance moves. Or if you prefer learn the salsa, tango, ballroom dancing, breakdancing, disco, hip hop. It's a fun activity for all ages, the old and the young and breaks down racial barriers between diverse cultures.

So the next time you get bored with dieting or the regular exercise routine, remember you can still lose weight, have fun and look great through dancing.

Instead of the typical ab routines that we see so often with crunches, situps, leg lifts, etc... I like to give my readers better options for metabolism-boosting high intensity workouts that work their entire body while also working their abs... thus building rock hard abs & core, but also creating a much better fat-burning workout than a typical ab workout.

I'm going to show you an example today of one of my favorite "ab workouts" that doesn't include any direct "ab exercises" at all. It's in a tri-set format (similar to a super-set but alternating between 3 exercises).

Here goes:

1a. Renegade Dumbbell Rows
1b. Front Squats with Barbell
1c. Mountain Climbers on Floor

A good rep scheme to use with this could be 3-4 sets of 8 reps for each exercise, or more sets for less reps, such as 5 sets of 5 reps of each exercise. Mountain climbers can be done for a time interval (such as 30 seconds) instead of "reps".

More pictures and descriptions on the above exercises.

Every time you take your children to the park for some outdoor entertainment you can make the most of this time too!

Get your bottom off the park bench and give these playground workout moves a go!

• Park Bench Ste Ups (8-10 each leg)
• Push Ups (8-10) can modify by performing against park bench
• Picnic Table Hip Bridge (8-10 each leg)
• Monkey Bar Pull Ups (5-10) modify by jumping to top of pull up and slowly lowering to bottom
• Picnic Table Jumps (8-10)
• Sprints - invite your children, increase laughter, engage your core
  

How To Use

Perform these moves straight through as a circuit repeating 2-4 times or pair up into super sets, completing each pair 2-4 times in a row - take a short rest and move on to the next super set.

Enjoy yourself with your kids!

Day Five:

• You may have 10-20 ounces of beef (300-500g) and a large tin or up to six fresh tomatoes.
  
• Drink at least 6 to 8 glasses of water this day to wash the uric acid from your body.
  
• Eat your soup at least once today.
