Jazzercise Review and a Few Other Things...

I am back from Jazzercise class.  Oh my!  Fun!  It is pretty much like Zumba with out the Latin flare and sexy moves.
  • There were no leg warmers.
  • There were no sweat bands.
  • There were no Jazz hands or Sparkle fingers.  :(
  • But there were old ladies...and young ladies too.  No men.
  • We danced to everything from Beyonce to Michael Jackson to some random songs from the 70s that I consider "easy listening for the over 50 crowd".
I don't really enjoy the floor workout at the end of the class wear one lays (lies?) on the floor and does abdominal work and weight lifting.  I am so used to having my "padding" AKA fat, so now with out my padding, laying on the floor hurts...even with that mat.  sigh...

**********
A few other things...
  1. I have a fill scheduled for tomorrow afternoon.  My last fill was 4+ months ago and it was a "big girl fill".  I notice that I can eat alot more lately and get hungry more often between meals. I am snarfing down a turkey/egg white 6" sub from Subway while I type this....see? I need a fill.  Anyways, I think I will ask for a smidge of a fill..maybe .2 or .3 ccs.  This also means that I get to stand on their magic scale that will tell me my body fat percent and other random info like body impedence (whatever that is).  I have a goal to be (one day) 25% body fat or less.  Pretty doable in my opinion.  I started at 52% body fat before surgery. yikes.
  2. I will be meeting up with a local bandster and blogger next week!  Betcha can't guess who?  You will have to be in suspense until next time.
  3. Weigh-in day tomorrow!

    All I can think of when I see jazzercise is Olivia Newton John's song...."Let's Get Physical". Hehehehe.

    I forgot about the floor exercises at the end. When I was going, there were several of us who would just duck out as people were getting their mats out. :)

    Sounds like fun! I remember doing Jazzercise in the 1980s. I want to do it again. There's a place right by my house - maybe I'll try it!

    Jazzercise looks to be a very good form of cardio work out. Any dance is a cardio work out if you think of it.
    Only dancers don't think of it as a form of exercise. They think of it as a form of art that they love to do.
    I'm no dancer and I find it hard to do it. I'd rather run but this is something worth looking into if i have a partner to practice with.
