My Favorite Workout

Exercise can be a pain in the you-know-what for some of us, but a necessary choice for long term weight loss. A gym is fun at first, but after the excitement wears out, it becomes a chore to get ready and go. In fact, most workouts can lose their excitement after a couple days.

The Turbo Jam workout happens to be my favorite to stay motivated. I found a package of 5 workouts that includes a beginner routine of only 16 minutes, a short 20 minute workout that is a little more intensive, and a 40 minutes Cardio and fat burner workout. The 2 others are more muscle building and one is entirely devoted to abs!

The Turbo Jam music, although not something I would listen to every day, is excellent for working out! The whole thing is based around a kick-boxing style of workout that stretches, tones and makes me feel all around powerful. I enjoy the energy of the music, the energy of the workout team on the dvd, and the energy and elevated mood I get every time I do it.

One of the first things I noticed right away was that my balance was much better after about 2 weeks. The tone in my arms improved (noticeably to me) after less than a month. And, unlike other workouts, this ones gets more fun as you continue to do it. As you improve, you can concentrate less on your moves and focus more on the dance-like movements that propels the workout forward. It is fun and goes by fast. And on the days I just do not feel like working out, I put on the one of the shorter ones and keep it low key. The way I see it, at least I've done something.

And remember that no matter what weight loss program you choose, exercise not only keeps your body shapely, but keeps you healthy by stimulating your immunity, strengthening bones, and bringing more oxygen throughout your entire body, giving you a healthy, youthful appearance and makes you feel more energetic!
