I love to dance and did have a Jazzercise record album (you can tell how old it is) LOL..a long time ago, but I checked the site you recommended and I don't think there are any in Indiana. I tried a couple nearby cities too, but nothing. I wouldn't want to travel far anyway.

I seem to remember Jazzercize tapes. Aren't there CD's or DVD's available?

By the way, glad to see that some of you are beginning to workout, trying to workout or at least thinking about it. There are some days when I just don't have time to do a full workout, but I try to at least walk or something. Anything, even if it is just a few minutes is better than nothing.

To those of you who are under 40. Believe me, it sneaks up on you. You think hey, I don't look too bad, but when you hit 40, something happens. It's like the next day, something happens. And you are like, hey, why does that hurt, or where did that bulge come from, wow, why am I so tired, that never bothered me before. Or at least this has been my experience and many of my friends have expressed the same thing.

I just don't want my body preventing me from doing what I want to do for as long as I can, if there is anything that I can do about it. Ya know what I mean?

I don't really workout. I do go for at least 2 walks each day, anywhere from 20 to 40 minutes each time.

I joined Curves a few years ago, loved it, but could never find the time to go.

You are right on the money Marilyn!!!! It's so funny now, but when I turned 40 it seems everthing started happening. The first real test came when my Mom (at the time she was in her early 70's) and I were out in the front yard playing with my son (4 at the time). We were being silly and he was trying to do a cartwheel. Well, I've always been able to do them before, but NO ONE told me not to do them after 40....LOLOL. I ended up pulling a muscle in the back of my leg from my behind all the way down to my ankle. We heard the most awful sound when the muscle stretched.... I was in so much pain and my Mom couldn't help me get up. My husband was at a meeting. Just so happened my husbands best friend was going by our house on his way home from work and Mom flagged him down.

He was helping me get up and asked me what I had done. I told him I was doing a cartwheel and he darn near dropped me as he laughed. Anyway I ended up in the ER and on crutches for 2 weeks. From then on...it's been downhill....LOL The good thing from all this...my Mom was going to do a cartwheel too, thank God she didn't have the chance.!!!!

I woek out but I am a slacker. I try to eat well which is really important too. I am REALLY trying to get fit and shed some pounds cause I have a new bf that is a fireman and his got a perfect body which doesn't help my confidence levels...
But speed walking, running as long as I possibly can (10 mins...pushing it! haha) eliptical, and weights are great.
I thought to tone up we wanted low weigh/lots of reps...what's this about heavier weights??
