Unique workouts

Do any of you do any workouts that are ‘out of the norm’, like dancing, kickboxing, martial arts, etc..? I’m really interested in doing MMA/UFC type training at a program near here and just wondered what others did. Before I got pregnant with my son, I was learning how to box and it was AMAZING. Highly suggest it to anybody looking to get in shape and/or take out some aggression, lol.

Also, I was wondering if anybody takes any supplements to help with their weight loss/energy level. I’ve tried a few that never really helped but I recently started taking One A Day Weight Smart Advanced multivitamins and they are really great (and not a diet pill!)

Yesterday was my first day of hardcore workout. I went 2.5 miles on my stationary bike, did a bunch of core strength workouts on my fitness ball, and some stretches like lunges and whatnot. It felt SO GREAT. Haven’t had the time to do today’s workout yet, will do that this afternoon. Anyways, that’s my progress so far! :)

    I *try* to take centrum and 1200mg of calcium a day….
    I only love alternative exercise, I think that is what held me back for so many years. I thought exercising was running or doing jumping jacks–I hate both.
    I have done dance (hip hop, zumba, swing, salsa, broadway), weights, step aerobics, and now my Wii Fit!

    I practice Vinyasa Flow, Power, Hatha and Asthanga Yoga.

    I do kickboxing and shadow box for cardio. I take power sculpting classes, set class, athletic training classes for endurance, and interval circuit training for strength.

    I also do regular pilates, ballet/pilates fusion class and use the Bosu ball.

    I also am using the jumprope more. Got alot of my teammates to do the same thing.

    There’s a lot of different activities to get into that isn’t boring and will keep the body guessing.

    I do need to get back into spin though.

    Good luck with yours.
