Keep In Shape?

[ojibwaysweetie]

Any of you Jinglers exercise and keep in shape throughout the winter months for the upcoming pow wow season? I used to. *LOL*. Last year I didn't do that and the first powwow i went to I had a hard time during exhibition. Like needed a paperbag for hyperventilation *LOL*.

I do too, rezgirl! I want to make myself a black jingle dress this winter to go with my roses beadwork. A program has started "socials" every Tues evenings here and we are going to "TRY" to practice our steps once a week. (we'll see!) *LOL*

I'm trying to get back into shape so I can start dancing again so I do Tae-Bo 3-5 times a week and lift weights on the other two. Billy Blanks and I are like this:Eyepopper :karate: :karate: :duel12: :muscles:

I have been running, Pilates, and practicing my steps for next summer. Whenever I get tired, I think of how hard it would be if I didn't work out. Keeps me motivated.

Train in boxing if you want a killer workout.. no tae-bo or cardio kickboxing.. the actual contact boxing... whip ya into shape in no time.:D
