I dislike the word “workout”. Staying in shape and keeping fit this winter shouldn’t be work; you get enough tedium and toil at your job as it is, and you don’t want to come home and do more of it. Keeping exercise fun is the best way to stay motivated and if you’re looking to avoid that sedentary lifestyle belly pouch this winter, try incorporating dance into your exercise routine.
If you’re not much of a dancer and inspiration is your problem, check out the new release of Step Up 3D (also known as Step Up 3). Once you strap on your 3D glasses, you’ll be infected by the dancing passion of New York’s street dancing underground with Luke, Moose, Natalie and the House of Pirates as they battle the world’s top dancers in this feel good, high energy dance film.
If you’re looking to learn some new moves, what better way than with the 2entertain Diversity dance troupe’s new dance/ fitness fusion DVD. The street dance troupe from east London and Essex won high marks (even from Simon Cowell) and beat out the famous Scottish singer Susan Boyle in Britain’s Got Talent season three. Their DVD contains both a dance workout routine and a tutorial on how to put together your own street dance routine step by step.
Finally, you’ll need some hot music to dance to and I’d recommend Ministry of Sound’s Running Trax 2. Designed to be the perfect accompaniment to your running and workout routines, the high energy dance anthems will keep you in the mood to dance until you drop.
