Some of my favorite workouts are the impromptu kind. The kind where you just get an idea and run with it {possibly literally}.
This Workout Wednesday I bring you....Dancing.
I'm not talking Zumba or anything organized.

I'm talking about unorganized, untamed, completely wild and possibly ugly dancing.
Crank up the tunes in your house or if your speakers don't do the music and dancing justice then possibly plug in your headphones and then just let it all out.
Dancing like nobody's business nonstop for a couple songs is a killer workout and should not be overlooked.
Dip, jump, wiggle, pump, swing, nod, rock it and shake everything for an entire song and hit repeat if you love it enough. Just go crazy (but don't smash your head into a door or leg into a table).
I also feel that the music needs to be pretty loud for you to really get into it and get that heart going. It may feel awkward at first, especially if you look like a fish having a seizure {like me}, but just keep going at it...it's worth it and feels good.

I wore my Microsoft Fitness Band while going at it for about a half hour to show you that this isn't just for fun. The parts where my heart rate dips down were likely when I had to take care of my phone acting retarded ;) See? This is a legit workout folks! It even says my recovery time is about 14hrs, psssh like I'm not going to dance for 14hrs, that's poppycock! P.S. I love how my fitness band makes crazy dancing justified now ;) |
Thought I'd share screenshots of my Crazy Dancing playlist! {I knew you were curious} I didn't get through all of them during my 30 min dancing session, but I had a great time! Out of these songs, my favorites for getting the heart pumping would be: *Back In Time *Timber *I Love It *Shake It Out *Berzerk But like I said, I haven't made it through the whole list yet! |
To further the difficulty of this workout, sing along!
My plain ol' generic music app on my phone shows fun visuals and also downloads the lyrics to songs. I can then cast it to my tv via Chromecast {which also lets the music play on the good sound system} and it looks something like what you see below.
