How to have fun while losing weight?

1. Bellydancing:  We have written several articles on the subject because many of our female readers are literally going nuts telling us how much fun they have doing a workout and transforming their personalities, like Shakira. (Related article:  Bellydancing for discovering your feminine side)

2. Swimming:  You can simply go for a swim regularly or join any of the other water sports in the local swimming pool.  (Related article:  Exercise during winter)

3. Martial arts:  You pick what you want because the choice is very broad.  There are literally dozens of choices:  judo, karate, kung-fu, kendo, etc.

4. Spiritual-physical exercises:  We mean things like yoga or NIA or pilates.

5. Artistic exercises:  Ever wondered if you could learn ballet and have a workout too?  Yes, all you do is to buy a video and follow it at home.  We have heard that there are videos for workouts based on hip-hop, salsa, and even Bollywood.

6. Gardening:  Fire the local company that cuts your grass, blows your leaves, and maintains the yard.  Do it yourself instead.  Not only is it good physical exercise, you breathe some fresh air and learn about gardening.

7. Capoeira:  It is a African-Brazilian form of martial art/folk dance that can be a lot of fun since it is done in a group, where the focus is on cardio, coordination of body parts, and stability.  Great way to meet some new people too!

8. Gridiron workout:  This workout is derived from the practices used by football players and the emphasis is on speed and agility.

9. Bosu:  Apparently the name is derived from "both sides up".  This training uses a Bosu balance trainer, which you can buy at many online shopping websites.  The idea is to adjust to an unstable surface.  Try this in a group and have some laughs too!
