Flirty Girl Fitness helps people lose weight because it is fun to do. The more fun you are having, and the more you enjoy your workouts, the great your chances of success.

Deanne J Lost 15 lbs & 25 inches

“Over the past few years I found myself wondering “how the heck did I get to this place in life!?!” I’ve always considered myself a very positive, pro-active and physically active person and now I found myself standing still at a life crossroad, stuck in a dead-end relationship, ok ~ but not so challenging career and the like. We’ve all been there and like so many other folks before me, I unconsciously turned to food to drown my sorrows and offer cozy comfort. I quickly discovered, unfortunately, just how easy it is to put on weight and how hard it can be to healthily lose it. YIKES!!

After being totally frustrated and quite disgusted with myself for “going there,” I decided that I had to do something about it. I truly wanted myself back!!! Luckily, at that turning-point junction, I found Flirty Girl Fitness. In the past I was a spin-class, yoga-class, gym-junkie and I burned myself out from fitness monotony. With Flirty Girl Fitness not only did I experience fun, varied, sexy and empowering-type workout, but I also enjoyed meeting a group of fabulous women of all ages, shapes and sizes, who joined the program for their own reasons. Flirty Girl Fitness is not only a great workout but definitely helped bring “my sexy” back! Who knew that pole and chair dancing are soooo much fun! Plus, the pole and chair fitness programs really helped tone and shape my body.

Over the course of 3 months I experienced wonderful things… lost over 15 lbs. and approx. 25-inches, plus actually enjoyed the process!! WOW! ~ The results speak for themselves but most importantly, the Flirty Girl Fitness program helped bring back my inner confidence and inner sexiness that had temporarily gone astray. Today, I’m very happy, successfully traveling my fitness path, in great health and dating an amazing man! What more can a gal ask for?? Always, always remember to never give up on yourself. Thank you Flirty Girl Fitness!”

Boce Lost over 10 inches

“Being a part of Flirty Girl Fitness has put me back in touch with the fun-loving, exotic woman within. It taught me how to creatively express that which only a woman can do and feel. I did this for me. My goal was to get shaped, toned and lose weight because it helps me stand taller and support my frame with greater ease. Flirty Girl Fitness made it a fun process.”

Janee T Lost 22 inches

“When I’m doing the dances and the workouts, I feel totally sexy. And I wasn’t feeling that way before. My confidence level now is through the roof! I feel now, since starting the Flirty Girl program, I can walk into any room and exude that confidence and basically that Flirty Girl attitude anywhere that I go now. It’s helped me tremendously with the workout and with my outer life as well.”

Tann Lost 20 lbs & 30 inches

“I am an actress and the author of a self-help book that teaches loving yourself more, ‘The Cinderella Syndrome: When the glass slipper no longer fits’. Both of these jobs require me to exude self-confidence and a strong sense of self-worth. However, around the time Flirty Girl Fitness came around I found myself in need of a serious self-esteem pick me up. I was going through some life changes and a lot of soul-searching and I started to lose myself… I really wanted to focus on me again. I wanted to love me again.

Flirty Girl Fitness awakened The Goddess in me that had been lying dormant, waiting for some reason to come into the light again. Not only did I get an incredible work out that helped me to lose 20 pounds and nearly 31” off my entire body, but I had more fun in this class than I’ve had in any (that’s right any) fitness class. I never thought pole dancing could quicken me in all the ways it did. It gave me back my self-confidence and increased my feelings of self worth. I literally felt more and more invincible after each workout.”

Amy Lost 26 inches

“Flirty Girl Fitness is not a typical workout where you’re counting the seconds until it’s done. It is super fun and makes you feel super sexy while producing dramatic results. I lost over 24 inches from all over my body, toned up, and looked and felt amazing. When you can combine fitness, sexiness and a little naughtiness AND get great results, that is a great program and that defines Flirty Girl Fitness.”

Tracy Lost 14 lbs & 23 inches

“Why not try something that is going to make you feel good and really honor yourself as a woman? The results that I have received from Flirty Girl Fitness have been amazing. The program really conditions and strengthens your core, tightening everything so you are able to exercise better overall. I think that it is something every woman should do for herself. Putting in the dedication has made me feel wonderful and part of something every woman should do.”

Amy Lost 30 lbs & 44 inches

I’ve been that girl – sitting up in the middle of the night watching TV, wishing that a miracle pill would come on – looking for something to help, anything to help. Flirty Girl Fitness is something that can help! Anybody can do this, it doesn’t matter how old you are, it doesn’t matter how big you are – anybody can try this and anybody can enjoy it. It is so much fun. There is nothing to lose by trying this. It is the most fun I have had in my life!

I feel stronger and sexier and more motivated that ever to work out!. The pole fit workouts were incredible. They are very challenging and utilizing the pole I was able to build incredible muscle tone in my arms and my legs using it in different ways to stabilize myself.”

Jeanne B. Lost 30 lbs & 40 inches

“I’ve bought all new clothes! I went from a size 18 to 14 in just two months – and now I’m back down to my size 8 and 10s! It’s once again fun to shop for clothes!

When you’re doing the Flirty Girl Fitness workouts, not only are you working off the pounds, but you’re also feeling a lot sexier doing it. It’s not all about the outside; Flirty Girl Fitness also makes you feel different on the inside! It makes you feel sexy! It’s so empowering to own your own femininity and to feel sexy again. You’re never too old to be sexy, all you have to do is unlock it, release it and let it happen!”

Elizabeth M. Lost 24 lbs & 39 inches

“Flirty Girl Fitness provided an exciting, well rounded and fresh approach to achieving my fitness goals. The innovative idea of combining pole dancing with cardio and strength training challenged my body beyond comparison! Having to lift your own body weight and swing yourself around a pole really provided motivation to lose excess pounds — the lighter you are the less weight you have to pull up and manoeuvre around the pole!

Flirty Girl Fitness offers a fantastic fitness regime to not only look great but to feel great too! Even before the pounds started disappearing, I noticed that I felt sexier, happier and healthier. Being able to pole dance augmented my confidence and allowed me to tackle my day with a new fervour. I mean really, how many people can perform a one-handed swing around a pole and land it…gracefully! Now that takes strength, flexibility, confidence and a little sense of adventure; and that is what you get if you embark on a fitness journey with ‘FlirtyGirl Fitness.’ Happy swinging!!”

Tammy L Lost 23 inches

“It’s such a good feeling to be able to look at yourself in the mirror and think, wow, I look good, I look thin AND I look pretty hot now! I have lost the stomach weight, my arms have tightened up and my whole body has just thinned out. I had so much fun doing the pole dances. It was so liberating and so much fun, plus it’s a really good workout. Who knew that you could gain so much strength just swinging on a pole? I’m so excited – it’s such a good feeling.”

Erin Lost 25 inches

“I feel great when I’m doing Flirty Girl Fitness. I feel strong and I don’t want to stop – it gives me the adrenaline rush like a runner’s high. It really makes me remember how it feels to be in my body and to be present in my body and really feel “me” coming back. If somebody had said to me at the beginning of the year that I would be dancing on a pole, I probably would have laughed in their face and told them that they were crazy and they should get help. I love the pole fit workout – the lunges and the squats. I love challenge and I need the challenge. I love that it incorporates every part of your body and that it strengthens and tones and it – - it’s definitely changed my body. I can’t believe how it’s changed my body. It’s amazing!”

Calais Lost 23 inches

“My experience with Flirty Girls was absolutely positively transforming. Before I embarked upon this journey I was at a place in my life where I needed to be physically and mentally challenged. Flirty Girl Fitness fulfilled that craving by having me set a goal and encouraging me to reach it… and after all those fun, “Girl Power” classes, I rose to the top of my game. I felt fit, healthy, confident, sexy and empowered! I don’t think there is a better combination for us ladies. Flirty Girls only brings out of you what’s already there!”

Leticia Lost over 20 inches

“Flirty Girl Fitness really makes you feel so sexy and without realizing at the end of it you start seeing these muscles and all this definition. It is so much fun – Flirty Girl Fitness workouts were different because you enjoy them. It never gets boring.”

Chances are you may have a weak immune system. Of course, there are diseases like diabetes, cancer, and AIDS, that will weaken your immune system that are generally out of your control. But for the average person that does not have one of these conditions, how we treat our bodies will indirectly affect the ability of our immune system to fight off diseases and illness.

Naturally, we are all born with different levels of immune systems – some stronger than others. But our daily environment also plays a role in how effective our immune system can be.

Weaker immune systems make us more vulnerable to any illness that affects humans. Repeated infections, inflammation, slow wound healing, and fatigue can all be caused by a weak immune system. If your body is not prepared to fight off invaders, you are going to get sick more often than the average person.

Bad Dietary and Health Habits

There are many things that can depress your immune system. Any one of the factors below can result in an immune system that does not work as well as it should, while a combination of these bad habits means you’re doing a lot of damage to your immune system’s ability to fight off illness.

Too Much Sugar – The average American consumes a lot of sugar – much more than our Paleolithic ancestors, and much more than our foreign counterparts. On average, Americans consume an amazing 100 pounds of sugar per year. We eat this much sugar because of our love of soda drinks, sweets, and processed foods. In the 19th century, where cardiovascular diseases and cancer were not nearly as common, sugar intake was only about 5 pounds per year.

So how does all of this sugar harm our immune system? Studies show that a bad sugar habit can cause mood swings, personality changes, enhance nervous disorders, cause diabetes (of course), speed up the rate of heart disease, and so on and so forth.

Sugar is devoid of any minerals, vitamins, and fiber, so when we ingest sugar our body has to use its own stores to digest it. When your body runs out of its own stores, cholesterol and fatty acid metabolization is slowed. Basically, sugar brings your immune system to a halt.

If you want a more technical answer on why sugar is so bad for our health, this is a great article on the harmful effects of sugar.

Obesity – We all know obesity leads to all types of health problems. This ties into the “too much sugar” issue as well. Once you are considered obese your immune system will suffer.

It is known that obesity has an affect on the immune system, but researchers are still trying to figure out the exact reasons.

Research performed on laboratory mice has shown that obesity prevents the body from turning on its immune system properly, making it more vulnerable to infection. In fact, obese mice were 50 percent less capable of killing the flu virus, compared to lean mice. The research seems to show that the same is true in humans. – Source

Early research shows that, in mice, the T-cells and macrophages (which make up the immune system cells), are not correct in obese mice. The amount of healthy white blood cells (macrophages being white blood cells) are much lower in obese mice as well.

Excessive Alcohol – Most people enjoy a drink once in a while, but if you are drinking a bit too much, it will harm your immune system’s ability to fight off illness. For one, alcohol does not provide any nutrients, which causes a nutrient deficiency (just like sugar). This means that your body has fewer nutrients to nourish the cells that make up your immune system. In addition, and once again just like sugar, excessive alcohol reduces the ability of white blood cells to kill germs.

Smoking – There aren’t many health benefits to smoking. Aside from the high of a nicotine buzz, it is pretty much common sense that smoking harms the body and has no real benefits. When it comes to the immune system, smoking causes more risk for influenza and pneumonia. Smokers also take more time to recover from an illness because it represses the ability of the immune system to function properly.

We Can Improve Our Immune System

The above causes of a weak immune system are all within our control. We have the power to help our immune system function better. If you are always getting sick, you now know why if you are guilty of one of the above causes.

Your immune system is made up of special cells, proteins, tissues, and organs throughout your body. The immune system is not one specific part, but rather, a combination of things within your body to provide a “shield” against incoming bacteria, viruses, and diseases. And when that shield is broken, it is up to the immune system to eliminate the problem.

All plants and animals have an immune system, not just humans. Your body fights off infections and diseases the same way a tree or dog would.

The Immune System is Always Waging War

An easy way to think of the immune system is as our body’s miniature army. We are always at war with the germs around us. The things we touch, the food we eat, and the air we breathe are filled with germs we cannot see – but know that they are there.

Our immune system army keeps these germs at bay, all day and all night. Obviously, our immune system does not go undefeated. When a germ does penetrate the body, it is the job of our immune system army to seek and destroy it before it becomes a problem. The real battle begins when the germ has turned itself into an illness. This is when the immune system wages war and works overtime to get rid of any sickness you may have.

When we are born, we start with a very immature immune system. Babies are given vaccinations (vaccines are a barely-living, or dead strain of a bacteria or virus) to help strengthen their immune system (they build tolerance to the real versions of these diseases) As the years go by, our bodies develop a tolerance for each “sickness” we recover from. For example, we usually catch chicken pox only once in our lives because after the first time we have developed an immunity to it.

Your Immune System has Three Basic Functions

• Prevent bacteria and viruses (germs) from getting into the body
• Should a germ enter the body, it is the immune systems job to find and eliminate the germ before it has a chance to cause a problem.
• Should the germ develop into a problem (infection, flu, etc), it is the job of the immune system to eliminate it.

Your Immune System in Action

You cannot exactly see your immune system, but you can see it working many times throughout your life.

• Healing Wounds – When you cut or puncture your skin, your immune system goes straight to work. An opening in your skin is an invite for bacteria and viruses to get into your body and cause a lot of damage. The immune system tries its best to fight off these invaders while your skin repairs itself.

  Sometimes, a wound can become infected if the immune system missed something. Pus and inflammation around a wound happen as the immune system works overtime to try and fight off the spread of an infection.

• Surviving a Cold or Flu – Colds are caused by bacteria and strains of the flu are causes by viruses (generally). We catch colds and flu from other people when germs are spread, but most of the time our immune system does its job and we do not get sick.

  But, every once in a while these germs get past our immune system and we do get sick. Your immune system is the reason your body survives a cold or flu. Without it, we’d have very short life spans. People with stronger immune systems tend to get sick less often, and are able to recover from illness faster.

• Mosquito bites – When you see the inflammation and suffer the itching of a mosquito bite, this is your immune system at work. Mosquitoes are carriers of disease, so your body has to fight off the germs that the mosquito passed onto you when it sucked out some blood.

Preventing Diseases caused by Germs

When a germ (the generic term for harmful virus and bacteria) finds a host (i.e, enters the body), it reproduces and spreads like wildfire. Germs have only one goal in mind, and that is to spread as quickly as possible. A single bacterium can turn itself into 2 separate bacteria in about a half-hour. Overnight, one piece of bacteria can develop into millions – which is why it does not take much to catch a cold from somebody else. Viruses work differently, but can spread just as quickly.

Infections and illnesses from germs cause things like colds, flu (influenza), mumps, measles, malaria, AIDS, and much more.

The Immune System is not Perfect

Sometimes, the immune system attacks foreign invaders that we actually want inside our body. For example, the immune system attacks “foreign” organs during an organ transplant. This is why organ transplants are much more difficult than they should be. The operation is usually easy. It is the days after a transplant that are the hard part.

Allergies are another error caused by the immune system. Some people react to fur, food, or pollens because the immune system overreacts to stimuli that others do not react to.

Obviously, the immune system is not perfect. If it were, we would never get sick. Or if we had to get sick, no one would ever die from a disease or illness.

Some people have very good immune systems, and do not get sick that often. When they do, they can recover quickly. Others have weaker immune systems, and these people suffer infections and sickness more often than average.

Improving the Immune System

There are certain things everybody can do to improve their immune system, whether it is weak or strong already. This is what we will discuss in the next few articles about boosting the immune system.

Most people, men and women alike, want to get into shape at some point. When you decide to lose weight, you may not know the best way to go about it. So you jump into a workout program, whether it’s on a treadmill or a boring routine at the gym, but after a few days you lose all motivation because you do not like doing it.

So how do you solve the problem?

Stay Motivated with Your Weight Loss

You can stay motivated when you want to lose weight by doing something you love to do. We preach this “theory” on BetterBodyJournal because it works. If you are enjoying your exercise, then losing weight does not become a chore. When you do not look forward to exercise, chances are you will stop doing it over time.

That’s why we recommend Flirty Girl Fitness for the female readers.
Flirty Girl Fitness is not your typical, boring routine. It’s always fun to see something fresh when it comes to losing weight. The Flirty Girl Fitness DVDs are just that – a new way to approach weight loss.

How Does Flirty Girl Fitness Work?

“Stripperobics” is a new trend in exercise, which basically creates a fun, aerobic exercise out of the moves that are used by exotic dancers or music video dancers.

Before we go any further, Flirty Girl Fitness is not an instructional DVD set on how to become a stripper or exotic dancer. The idea is to teach women how to dance seductively so they can lose weight through the program, or pick-up new dance moves to impress their significant other. The Flirty Girl Fitness DVDs are tasteful and do not require you to dance around naked. That said, if your goal really is to become an exotic dancer, then Flirty Girl Fitness might be a good place to start.

Flirty Girl Fitness is a series of DVDs that help you lose weight through dance. Not just any kind of dancing though! You will learn the sexiest dance moves in the world. You will learn the dance moves that are used in the hottest music videos and choreography today.

If you don’t have any dance experience, don’t worry. Just spend time practicing, and eventually you will master all the dance moves. The beauty is that you can do these workouts from the comfort of your own home. So if you are embarrassed by your dance moves, no one else will see you while you are improving your skills! (until you are ready to show them off!)

Flirty Girl Fitness Burns Fat Fast and Targets a Flat Stomach

Intense cardio exercise is one of the fastest ways to lose weight. Period.

You are much better off doing 20-30 minutes of intense exercise instead of 1 hour of slow, less-intense, and boring exercise in almost any situation.

This is why Flirty Girl Fitness works so well for weight loss. The DVDs are designed to get you dancing with intensity start to finish, and that is why it can help you burn a lot of fat fast through intense cardio. The program also includes a DVD for training the abs and core muscles specifically.

Calories and Your Body

Calories are units of energy that come from food, and are used by our bodies to allow it to function. Eat too many calories per day (more than you burn off) and you begin to gain weight. Eat less than you burn off, and you will lose weight. It’s a fairly simple math equation.

3,500 calories make up roughly a pound of fat. The average person consumes 2,000 calories per day. (Of course, 2,000 calories is the recommended daily intake of calories – as you can see from America’s obesity epidemic, we eat a lot more than the 2,000 average.) The recommended daily intake is 2,000 because that is the average amount of calories we burn per day just being alive, doing our daily routine with moderate exercise in between.

Keep in mind these numbers are guidelines only. Don’t take them to heart, because the calories we need to consume and burn per day will vary with each individual due to sex, weight, health conditions, metabolic rate, age, etc etc.

Knowing that 3,500 calories make up a pound of fat, you can lose weight by

• Reducing the amount of calories you eat to be less than the amount your burn each day
• Increasing exercise to burn more calories per day, so you burn more calories than you consume.
• Combination of Both

Combining a proper diet (preventing excessive intake of calories) and increasing exercise is the simplest plan to follow for losing weight. How much weight you lose will depend entirely on the diet and exercise, but because this series is about walking for weight loss we will look at how to lose weight walking.

How Much Weight Can You Lose Weight Walking?

Below are two examples of how much weight you can lose just by walking. We look at a person who weighs 150 lbs and one who weighs 250 lbs. We look at how many calories you can burn with the various types of walking available to you. We’ll look at the types of walking you can do later.

Calorie estimates taken from CalorieLab.com

Things to Take Away from the Above Example

Heavier People Burn More Calories – The heavier you are, the more calories you will burn no matter which type of walking you do. It takes more energy for your body to move your weight than someone who weighs less. As you lose weight, your body will require fewer calories to do the same type of walking.

Walking Does Not Have to be Boring – As you can see, walking does not mean you circle your block 20 times. You can walk uphill, walk with weight, walk fast, anything! We will get into the types of walking in a later article.

Walking Will Make You Lose Weight – If you have a steady diet (meaning your weight is generally the same – it does not jump up and down a lot day-to-day), adding something as simple as walking will allow you to lose weight. A 250 lb person can lose a pound per week but with brisk, uphill walking 1 hour per day 6 days a week.

Below, we’ve complied a bunch of Core Rhythms reviews and testimonials so you can see if Core Rhythms is right for you. The actual text of each review is real, but we cannot account for the legitimacy of the person who wrote it. Either way, there are enough reviews here to give you a good idea of what people are saying about Core Rhythms. The majority of these reviews come from shopping websites and review websites.

Reviews and Testimonials

The full workout is difficult to follow if you just throw it in the first day. You need to use the Kick Start DVD to learn the basics. The Quick Workout is actually a good one to get comfortable with the moves. Then you move on to the full workout. There are DVD features that will show you the moves slowly. It just takes practice. It is much more fun than crunches and jumping jacks. May not be for everyone, but I enjoy it and am seeing results with it.

- Raven 07/21/2009

I just wanted to say that you do not have to be a dancer to do this workout. You also do not need to be a small girl. I started it 3 months ago needing to lose 90 pounds and so far I am down 28 pounds/ 3 sizes. The DVD does have an option of slowing down the moves to make it more easy to follow. In addition it is a fun workout if you are interested in dance.

- Sierra 07/11/2009

I bought this product because it looked different. It is all about learning Latin Dance while exercising. It shows you how to do each move and shows you different views of how to do it. At first you are clumsy at performing the moves, but once you get into the groove of it, it comes more naturally. These videos kick your butt, and you most deffinitely feel it the next day. You will find muscles you did not know exsisted. It comes with 4 dvds. one is a instrcutional how to, one is a 20 minute workout, and one is a 45 minutes workout. Then the last one is a dvd on the actual dances. It also comes with a diet/food plan for you to go by. The only thing is that both the instructors are rail skinny and make you sick. After a few workouts you will feel more comfortable with the style. I have yet to get into the 45 minute workout, but I plan to. You will also need to have water at hand, wow I go through a lot of water when doing these dvds.

-Bcylab, 39 year old female

I bought it. But 2 months later, I’m dancing each and every single day. The music makes you want to dance, and Julia and Jaana are motivating, funny and not annoying as most of dvd trainers. Personaly, I prefer hearing a ‘’shake it baby’’ than counting to 4 constantly.The moves are easy, sexy, and fun, I surprise myself doing them everytime I hear music.

I’m hooked, and my mid-section proves it. Lot tighter belly, more defined waist line, and I had to buy smaller clothes. Each and every penny I’ve spent for the kit was worth it. I highly recommend this program if you have, like me, a little tendency to give up fast, and are looking for a program that would keep you motivated.

Core Rhythms is the best i lost so much weigth in such little time i love this!

- Chloe 07/10/2009

I LOOOOOVEEE Core Rythmes! The best work out I’ve ever done, Its a little hard at first, but It is fun, and it really works!

I’m so happy about this program!

- Kierston 05/31/2009

This set is decently priced and somewhat innovative. I believe anyone can do the workouts if they just stick with them and I believe that your core will feel it. If you like Latin inspired workouts, this one may be for you. I do get a little bored with the repetitions but I also feel the work in my abs and that’s what counts. I am going with 4 stars. I personally enjoy Hip Hop Abs more but it isn’t the workout, it’s just the style of the instructor and the “fun factor”. Core Rhythms is definitely a high energy, belly fat burning workout set. You also get a little pamphlet with a suggested diet but I don’t follow diets that come with workouts. You may like the suggestions.

It’s fun but really fast paced. I like the long workout better I think because it gives you little breaks in between to march and slow down. I lost 2.5 inches off my waist in a couple of months doing this and Hip Hop Abs so I’m not complaining!

Pros – effective, better than crunches, targets the core constantly, get help at any point during the workout, choice of views, 4 DVDs, short and long workouts
Cons – very fast paced, music isn’t great, gets really fast paced at times, not dance, exercise, can get repetitious, some high impact moves

- PattyTherre

I tried the Core Rhythms program the same day that it arrived. I really liked the program, it had a mix of Latin dances that are really fun to do. I really enjoyed the dance techniques, they are structured in a way that really works all your muscles in a way that doesn’t hurt you. I tend to have a lot of energy, but I felt like I had really worked out by the end of the workout. I have only been doing the program for a week now and it is almost time for me to go buy a smaller size of pants, I am highly impressed with the Core Rhythms program!

I have to say that these DVD’s are great. I am in Weight Watchers and was looking for a workout routine I could do during the winter months. I ordered the Core Rhythms Dance Exercise Program 7 DVD package. After ordering I had read several reviews that were negative about the DVD’s and the infomercial ordering, basically calling the company and the DVD’s a scam. I ordered my DVD’s in November 2008 and did not find this to be the case. The company was very professional and when I had a question about my order, I called the customer service number and spoke directly to a real person who was very helpful. I had also read that the DVD’s were a rip off because several were only a couple of minutes long. I also did not find that to be the case. The main DVD’s are great, I have not watched the extra workout DVD’s yet, but if they are shorter I feel that if they are combined with the full workout DVD’s you increase your success. I did, however, find the ordering process very frustrating. The automated system endlessly asks you if you want to purchase extra DVD’s or be signed up for other offers. Some of the reviews I read stated that people who purchased Core Rhythms had extra charges on their credit card and several of them admitted to not completing the automated ordering process. So my advice is to continue the ordering process until the automated rep. says goodbye. I did not have extra charges on my card. I sent an email to Core Rhythms letting them know that my frustration with their system almost made me change my mind in ordering their workout. All in all, that was my only beef with the company. I think the workouts are great. I have lost 35 ponds and I will update this review when these workouts help me reach my goal.

In a nut shell, the Core Rhythms method is exactly what the fitness market has been waiting for. Upbeat music, enthusiastic instructors, and enjoyable dance moves make this program a diamond in the rough. An added bonus to this program is that no expensive equipment is necessary in any of the workouts. Simply pop in the DVD, grab a bottle of water, and start dancing.

I love this workout! With the full workout (about 40 min) it goes by really fast and I’m sweating like crazy half way through. The quick workout (20 min) is really great if you don’t have a lot of time. There isn’t really any instruction, but at any time you can use the “help” and they will show you how to do the move and then it goes right back to the spot you were at. It did take me a couple of times before I was coordinated with it, but I don’t get bored of it and it’s fun!

This is one of my favorite exercise DVDs of all time – and I’ve tried pretty much every brand, type of exercise, and instructor on the market. I’m not coordinated by nature, and I agree the routines can be a bit intimidating at first – it took me at least a dozen viewings before I felt confident of my ability – but that’s one reason I loved the program. I like to be challenged and learn new things, so it’s incredibly satisfying to practice and improve. Now I have a blast working out, and I feel like I’ve learned some hot dance moves in the process. I look forward to working out every day, which is a FIRST for me. The instructors, Jaana and Julia, are outstanding – their enthusiasm is contagious, and the instruction is very helpful, particularly with the extra “Help” sections offered. Don’t be afraid of a fun challenge – if you are bored with the same old calisthenics and predictable routines, Core Rhythms is spectacular and so much fun!

This white chick can’t dance but I absolutely love these videos. I work out very day (which I never did before) and I have a lot of fun doing so. I get a good sweat on all of them (especially the Latin Cardio). Latin Cardio and the Ab workout are my favorites. No, I can’t get all the steps but that’s ok. That just gives me something to shoot for. Unlike regular exercise videos, at each work out I can work towards improving my moves which makes these far more interesting than the regular exercise videos. I also like the music. I don’t lock myself in a room, though. I just chase everyone away til I’m done (otherwise my family gets a good laugh!)

I have two left feet, and I can finally dance!! I find myself sweating even after the short workout. It’s a great, fun cardio workout. Definitely a keeper

- Angela A. Wheatley 01/23/2007

This DVD is okay—however, the coordination required is a little above my level. From reading the description, I thought I could do it–so I am a little disappointed. Probably, I just am a “Dancing With the Stars” wannabe!

Let’s cut to the chase: Dancing works for weight loss.

When it comes to weight loss, we always recommend doing something you love. That way, you never get bored by exercise and you actually look forward to it. When you love to exercise, you don’t think about your weight loss – it just happens!

Your chances of losing weight are so much better when you enjoy what you do for exercise. Imagine waking up, and not wanting to get out of bed because you have to force yourself to workout. It’s not hard to imagine really, because it happens to most of us all of the time.

But if you can’t wait to exercise because you like it so much, you will shed pounds faster then you ever thought possible!

That’s why we recommend Core Rhythms Dance DVDs for the people that want to have fun and lose weight at the same time. Yes, that’s right – losing weight can and should be fun!

One of the Best Workout DVD’s Available

Here are a few reasons why we highly recommend Core Rhythms, but make sure to read this entire review for the whole scoop!

• Complete Set of DVDs – Core Rhythms comes with 8 DVDs. That’s more than enough material to keep you busy for weeks on end.
• Affordable – For just under $60, Core Rhythms is one of the most cost effective exercise plans you can ever buy. It’s a lot cheaper than any home gym, private dance lessons, and it costs less than your average 2 months of gym membership. You can also pay over 3 months which makes it even more affordable!
• Privacy – You can get your dance on with Core Rhythms in the privacy of your own home. If you are self-conscience going to the gym, or embarrassed at your lack of rhythm, no need to worry! Close the blinds and pop in the DVD and get dancing!
• Money Back Guarantee – If you don’t like Core Rhythms for any reason, send it back for a refund within 30 days. That’s it! No questions asked.

Get Sexy Abs with Core Rhythms

The Latin dance styles that make up Core Rhythms focus a lot on your mid-section, which are your upper abs, lower abs, obliques (side abdominal muscles) and of course, your back. These are the muscles you need to exercise often when your goal is sexy abs. That’s where the “core” in Core Rhythms comes in.

Not only will the dance moves work your entire body, specifically your core, but Core Rhythms comes with specialized DVDs just for your abs. If the dance DVDs weren’t enough, pop in the Secret to Sexy Abs DVD and start toning up that tummy and burning off those love handles!

The Core Rhythms Learning Curve

Most people will get the hang of Core Rhythms very quickly. But there are some of us that have no rhythm, and we look like broken robots when we try to dance.

The great thing about this workout DVD set is you can do it from your own home. There is no need to be embarrassed about your dancing skills, unless you are worried what your dog or cat thinks of you.

It takes time to learn any new skill, whether its swimming, boxing, chess, or dancing. But as your practice each and every day, you will eventually find your rhythm. Once you get over the learning curve of learning how to dance, the rest comes naturally. It can take some people a few days, and some people a few weeks, but practice does make perfect!

Can Men Use Core Rhythms?

Core Rhythms is created by women and marketed towards women, but can men use it too?

The answer is: Absolutely!

Women absolutely love men who can dance. Whether you are trying to impress your wife, or pick up girls at the club, improving your dancing skills is a sure-fire way to attract a woman to you.

Men that know how to dance can attract women that do not even speak the same language. Dance is the unspoken language that binds all races and cultures, and knowing how to dance gives you an amazing advantage over the guys sitting slump in the corner of your favorite club.

Buy Core Rhythms – It Will Make You Smile!

Core Rhythms has more variety than many of the workout DVDs we’ve seen on the market. The full program will turn you into a sexy dancing machine as long as you stick with it (which shouldn’t be hard because it’s just so fun!) When you know how to dance, a quick trip to the dance floor will make the most gloomy person smile!

Since Core Rhythms is a set of DVDs, you can learn at your own pace by interacting with the DVD menus. Of course, you will need a DVD player!

Here’s what you get when you buy Core Rhythms –

• Core Rhythms Kick Start DVD – Slower paced introduction to teach you the basic moves which you should perfect before moving onto the next DVD
• Core Rhythms Full Workout DVD – Intense workout designed to get you a lean, sexy body.
• Core Rhythms Quick Workout DVD – Shorter workout that lets you burn fat and pump up your energy when you only have around 20 minutes to spare.
• Core Rhythms Lower Body Sculpt DVD – Muscle burning workout that focuses on your lower body, bringing you closer and closer to a flat stomach.
• Core Rhythms Latin Cardio Jam DVD – Combining dance moves and workout routines to burn fat and teach you dance essentials at the same time.
• Core Rhythms Latin Dance Made Easy DVD – Less of a workout DVD, and more of a dance instructional DVD. These are the moves you can take with you to the salsa dance clubs and bars.
• Bonus Core Rhythms Abs in a Hurry – A quick program that hits the ab muscles. If you want sexy abs, do this one 2-3 times a day. (It’s short)
• The Dance’s Diet Guide
• Success Tracker and Tape Measure

Too many diseases are related to poor lifestyle, and they can all be helped by becoming more active. We’re not saying that walking is going to cure cancer (just help prevent it), but it is going to help you fight off a lot of problems that are caused by being lazy and inactive.

Managing Weight

The entire premise of this guide is walking for weight loss. So what happens when you get your weight under control to a manageable level? Keeping your weight within the healthy limits will lower your risk of sleep apnea, osteoarthritis, type 2 diabetes, cancer, heart problems, and almost any other disease that is directly related to obesity and sedentary lifestyle.

Lower the Risk of Heart Attack and Stroke

You are more at risk for a heart attack or stroke when you are sedentary. Even if you’re not diagnosed with it (when it happens it is too late for a diagnosis anyway), the chance of one happening is far more likely among sedentary people than those who are moderately active.

A Harvard study of 11,000 men showed that brisk walking five hours per week reduced the risk of stroke in participants by half.

A Nurses’ Health Study, which spanned 20 years, of 70,000 women shows that brisk walking can reduce your chance of a heart attack 30-40%.

Improve Mental Health and Self-Esteem

Exercise releases endorphins, you body’s natural pain killers. Brisk walking will release more endorphins than a slow pace, but any walking is better than none.

When you start to walk for weight loss (your diet permitting), you will eventually lose weight and start to feel better about yourself. When your self-esteem improves, life just gets easier and more enjoyable.

The List Goes on and on…

Remember that the body is a machine that consists of mental, spiritual, and physical parts. When you improve one part, you see improvements in the others.

The “vicious cycle” rule applies here.

No exercise means you’re probably heavier than you want to be. If you’re heavy, then you’re overweight and are more likely to succumb to a weight-related disease like Type 2 diabetes. You get diagnosed with one of these diseases, and it stresses you out mentally and financially. The stress turns to depression and depression leads to eating food for comfort (or not eating at all, which is just as bad), and so on and so forth…

When you take your health in one direction, it will lead to more of the same. If you keep a poor lifestyle, expect it to snowball into an even worse lifestyle as the years go by.

If you change your life and start becoming healthier, expect to see the benefits of what being healthy is all about.

Now get up, and start walking! You have no excuse!

Walking is the most common form of locomotion for us bipeds. We walk because it’s free and convenient. But let’s not bore you to death about the history of walking.

This series is going to outline everything you need to know about walking for weight loss: how to do it, what to do it, and what benefits you should expect to see.

Who Should Use Walking for Weight Loss?

First things first, who should use walking as a means of exercise for weight loss?

This guide is designed for beginners. If you have never been to a gym, do not know how to exercise, or generally have never been exposed to how fitness works, then this walking for weight loss guide is for you.

Many people with exercise and fitness experience will probably frown upon walking because it’s too slow or boring. That’s fine, especially if you have a means of exercising that is going to burn more calories faster (Running, Basketball, Weight lifting, etc)

But there are many people who want to lose weight but do not know how. One of the easiest ways to get started with an exercise program and losing weight is walking. Walking is a “step” (groan…) in the right direction towards fitness.

• Easy to Get Started – All you need is a pair of shoes and somewhere to walk. Sidewalks in the city, long roads in the countryside, or a treadmill.
• Fun for All Ages, Both Sexes – It doesn’t matter if you’re man or woman, young or old, walking for weight loss can be done by anybody.
• Cost Effective – There is no cheaper exercise to than walking. Chances are you already have shoes, and treadmill is certainly not required.
• Convenient – No need to get up and drive to a gym. Just step out your front door and you are ready to walk.
• Easy to Maintain – Too many people start exercising and give up quickly because it’s too difficult. Not true with walking. You never exert yourself too hard, so it’s always easy to come back the next day and walk again.
• Exponential Health Improvement – If you have a history of being sedentary, meaning no exercise whatsoever, you will see amazing health improvements by walking just 30-60 minutes a day, 5 days a week.
