jademermaid30 minutes upper body focus, Yourself fitness.
I got quite a bit of muscle fatigue this time, but I made it. After all the normal shoulder and chest presses, bicep curls and upright rows, she had me do two sets of 50 curls a piece, while alternately standing on one leg! Weird, but it works, lemme tell you. Now I remember why I did so well before with this program. It throws challenges at you all the time, and you get a real sense of accomplishment when you complete them. I am quickly bored with regular exercise DVDs, but this has replay value.
I also did my bellydance drills, here they are again for those keeping score:
32 hip ups (16 each side)
32 hip downs (16 each side)
16 pelvic locks (8 in each direction)
16 chest lifts
16 chest drops
16 chest slides (back and forth)
16 chest circles (8 in each direction)
16 body rolls down
16 body rolls up
16 belly rolls (up and down)
16 umi (8 in each direction)
16 Maya
16 Taxim
about fifteen minutes, so forty-five total. I am beginning to see improvement already in the tightness of my belly, and also the tightness of my moves. I just have to remember that when I try to slack off and not stay on the routine.
