#1. I bellydance and have progressed to the point where I needed some super strength in those muscles! :D Aside from dancing and practicing belly rolls and stuff whenever I think no one is looking, I do the ab machine at the gym where you basically do a sit-up while pressing against weight; I do three sets of 12 at 100 lb/45 kg. And I do three sets of 50 on the ab coaster at max weight (35 lb/15 kg, I think?)
I pulled my piriformis muscle earlier in the year and so am just getting back fully into strength training.
#40. It's my absolute favorite saying. I think it really makes a difference to try to live it.
Oh that sounds awesome. I love bellydancing - watching. I doubt I could coordinate enough to do it without spraining something.
My yoga teacher sometimes has classes... coincidentally I was thinking of giving it a try, once the March madness is over. Hope no one around me gets hurt. lol
It's actually a very ground dance form, i.e., low impact on the joints and unlikely to result in injuries. Yes, this is me encouraging you to try it! :) I started it while I was having joint pain issues. I have been a freestyle rollerskater since I was a kid, and my body just couldn't bear the higher impact of vigorous dance/skating.
I love it. I'm in my third year now and can now do things I didn't even know were possible, like move ab groups separately! :D It's good exercise and more fun than the gym! (Says she who is still in her pajamas after trying to muster the energy to go to the gym for the past three hours ... :D)
Sounds like a good way to get back in the game. I can't believe it's March and the last time I went to the gym was this one time in January, after skipping most of December. :/
He's interesting, from the stage name to everything! (I'm a Mary Renault fan). I had heard of male performers but I hadn't seen one before. It's a thing of beauty.
#40 - I often say that to myself too.
