It's an addiction, I swear...

More DVDs I have bought. I am cleaning the living room again so I can exercise. I am through with DVDs for now. I should be set with a great variaty. Although I still want a ballet bar/fluidity bar and the FIRM. *shifty eyes*

Rachel Brice Yoga/Isolation DVD-reviews are so so but I'd still be good to have around
East Coast Tribal by Sera-Previews look amazing
Rania's Bellydance for Weight Loss-Kinda so-so
Flex Band Cardio Workout-Looks awesome!

I have also been walking at work in my new tennis shoes. I love them. I wore my converses today after wearing the others and OUCH. Other than that, my thighs are hurting and I have no clue why. I wonder if it's because I had to do alot of sprints up the stairs today. Hmm

So...

I have been obsessed with belly dancing for years. I do believe that the fad has come and passed. Lately, since I have been researching about belly dancing, knowing that soon I will be an active belly dancer for fitness, I have been watching videos and thinking, I want to do that. I am pretty sure my niche will be tribal. I have lately been considering trying to see if i could become a professional someday. I mean, I am trying to be everything else. I might as well try that. It will also give me a goal to keep learning and trying and keep fit. I decided to tell Mark and he said that I am being ridiculous and it's just a fad. :( That hurt. Now, I want to prove him wrong. *shifty eyes*

Eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!

I went to go to work. Checked the mail and two of the things I ordered were there! I got my Temple of Jehen: Ultimate Bellydance workout. I watched it and it really is ultimate. A little more intermediate. I shall wait a bit till I use that!

I got Bellydance for Core Fitness. WOW. I am just watching the tutorial for posture. It is so much more in depth! WOW. I have yet to view the work out. From what I have viewed from the exercise portion that it will be good for me without being too much.

Calories burned..hmm

According to this..

My job which is a YMCA Group leader with the prime time programs consumes...300-400 calories. Belly dancing can burn 250-300 calories. Housework consumes 150-200. Sex consumes 200-400. Interesting because I should be doing all those everyday. Hmm.

I think I should invest in a jump rope. It can burn 400 calories.

Mini Goal and More!

I decided to have a mini goal. This goal is to loose around 10" off my hips. I am pretty sure I remember from when I did duct tape dresses, my hips were 60 or so inches. I figure I can reward myself with getting the bellydance weight belt. I could also wear this when I am at work and walking around.

Today I reviewed the YBB tapes. Total toning isn't that cardio heavy. I don't think I will do that one as much. I also ordered a new Belly dance DVD. It is the Ultimate Bellydance Fitness Workout. It was real cheap on overstock.com. I read the reviews on amazon. It says it is really fast and doesn't teach it. But I have teaching dance DVDs and I have belly dance books. Therefore I am set.

Man, I wish I had more workout videos...

So, I realized when I was making my video rotation that I need more videos. I mean, yes this will work for now but I want more variety! Yes, I have tons of FIRM videos but I don't have the step, therefore it is useless.

Currently my workout will consist of:
YBB Toning, YBB Fat Burning, YBB Hip Hop Abs, YBB Cardio Caberet, Yoga Fusion and Bellydancing for Fitness with Veena and Neena.

*sadness*
