My question:

relates to different types of exercise. I have never been able to keep up excercise… but I have been useing DDR and have been able to keep it up for a year.

I currently do DDR 3X a week at heavy level. It seems like it is a good workout for my lower body but, even though I get out of breath during each song, there is about 20 seconds between songs and the overall intensity just isn’t there. It says I have done 10 miles…but I am not near as fatigues;/winded as if I jogged 10 miles… or even did 20 min on a treadmill(which I can’t stand doing). I love the DDR and am spending lots of time at it at a high level, but I haven’t really lost any weight and wonder if it is having an effect aside from lower body moscle toning… I have been going to the gym 2-3x a week and doing strength exercises for upper body and have enjoyed that. I was thinking of using the Yourself fitness to get more consistant aerobic exercise to lose some pounds (which I haven’t done with DDR). What are your thoughts on this?

To make the commitment, you have to go into the Commitment, then Calendar section and set how many days and how long you are willing to exercise. Then, you have to do what you said you were going to do for at least five workouts in a row. If you miss a day that you said you were going to exercise, it starts you back at zero.</p> <p>Good Luck!</p> To open the levels, you have to make a commitment and keep it.

That lady will kick your ass. I have to admit to hitting the "decrease difficulty" option during my workout today, but then I had to bump it up again once it got into the stretching as Maya was throwing in some seriously long and unnecessary breaks.</p> <p>Here's a tip, though. Don't go through a Y!F workout after playing one and a half hours of Ultramix 2. My rear hurts.</p> I just got Yourself!Fitness. That lady will kick your ass.

Here’s a tip, though. Don’t go through a Y!F workout after playing one and a half hours of Ultramix 2. My rear hurts.
