A friend is trying to convince me that dance is the ultimate exercise. Okay, sure, I love 'shagging at the beach.' But no - she's speaking of going barefoot, ankle bracelets with bells, and long flowing dresses.
Can you say - disaster? I can, and I'd be one jump away from busting my tail.
She contends it's low impact exercise. I looked into her idea for my life and had one simple question:
Who can afford the outfits?
Bells, whistles, glitter, rhinestones, and of course, gauze or silk materials that are flow-y!
I'm thinking the greatest impact would be to my wallet. She's not listening, and instead sent me video. "Here - watch this and start out moving like her." I'm in trouble.
Do you have to take trips to the desert like her too? Might get real expensive
ReplyDeleteHa! Pat. I was wondering the same bout the baby grand. (smile).
DeleteJust dance in your house and no one will see you.
ReplyDeleteI'd always heard that swimming was the best exercise because you use all of your body and it's low-impact.
Hi Alex. Yes, swimming works well. I had a reaction between the Fibro and chlorine; also the water temp has to be higher. But I love the pool and the lake!
DeleteAlex is right about swimming. It is great exercise. Water aerobics are good too. Mind you, one looks real pretty in those outfits.
ReplyDeleteI don't know what 'shagging at the beach' is but anyone seeing that in the UK will know of a naughty meaning of shagging (see Austin Powers!)

I am from the UK Bazza although I live in Canada now. And yes, my first reaction was the English one. However, having lived in North Carolina where they do shag dancing all the time, I knew what the difference was. still chuckling though.
DeleteAh, now I need educating!

You do, why?
DeleteI'm posting a video for you, Bazza! You have got see what North Carolina shagging is all about. Hang on!
DeleteAnd Jo, thank you for helping (smile).
i think the "ultimate exercise" is what you get to after starting with a few beginning exercises. jumping straight into an ultimate exercise might be the ultimate folly.
ReplyDeleteBilly - A serious mistake was made on Sunday when I thought I'd help out the neighborhood kids and play softball. One hour! One little hour, and come Monday I was wrecked (frown).
