Zumba is a latin dance exercise video that is on infomercials.  It looks so fun!!  But, I got it, and it is the stupidest "workout" ever!!  It's just a little latin guy dancing around, nothing really organized about it, flirting with the skinny chicks around him.  And personally, I think he's probably more interested in their boyfriends if you get my drift :)  Definately do not waste your money.  It should never be considered a workout :)

 

 

I ordered The Body Flex Plus Video from E bay and it really works. It is great for anyone who has trouble with walking. It  comes with a video, gymbar and measuring tape. It is a based on your losing inches and toning by deep breathing. Suppling oxygen to the parts of the body you are exercising. It targets the face, neck, biceps, triceps, chest, sides, waist, upper & lower abs, and the buns and thighs.This is aerobic and you do a few exercises without the gymbar and then a few with the bar. It only takes about 15 to 20 minutes a day. I lost a total of 8 inches the first week. It is so simple. If you are looking for something that only takes a few minutes a day and you can do at home this is it.

I just bought one of these about a month ago.. It is GREAT!!  It has two "handles" that can be used for your hands or your feet.. to add 'tension' when I am doing exercises, I stand on the band closer to the handles, and get a tougher workout.

 

I love the fact that I can roll these into a bag and take them with me.  Plus I find that doing behind the head, overhead extension raises (for the flabby part of my arms) I get a really really great workout.. and my muscles really feel the workout too..
