I got to try something really cool yesterday. Instead of the normal routine, my second buddy and I went to a “street”/”hip hop” dance class. Considering I rarely even hear any “street” music except when I’m flipping through radio stations, it was a totally unique experience for me. Also, it was freaking hilarious! My buddy and I were l laughing through a lot of the moves. Not so much because the moves weren’t cool, but because of how uncool we managed to make them look (especially me, since my buddy was doing better). The dance teacher was enthusiastic and awesome saying things like “wiggle it!”, “what?!”, and “cap it!” (appropriate moves corresponding). LOL. Very cool. So, the lesson is that you should totally try new things because it can lead to having a fantastic time!

Overall, this was a pretty intense workout (lots of jumping and fast moving). Not quite as high a calorie burn as using the cardio machines, but definitely a whole lot more fun. Besides, unique experiences have their own value besides just being part of a fitness routine. So, here is the summary:

Exercise Time: 1 hour
Calories Burned: at least 250
