I have been doing Body Pump for about three or four weeks about 2 or 3 times a week. I like it. I agree with another person who said that they feel like they still need cardio. I definitely need to have cardio in addition to the body pump. At my gym our instructors are great and really watch our form and correct us if necessary so we don't injure ourselves. The first time an instructor corrected the way I was doing something I felt a bit embarrassed until I started going more and see now that they help everyone by pointing out what they need to fix so they don't hurt themselves.

I'm really going to try hard to lose 2 pounds a week and go for losing 14 by Valentines day. That would put me at 193...a number I haven't seen in a very long time!

I want to join in. I AM going to lose 15! That would put me at 192. This will be great motivation for me!!!

I have tried the videos and done the workouts at a local gym. Honesty, I feel like the videos go too fast and are too advanced and I have done Zumba for almost a year. I love it and I leave there dripping wet too. It also depends on who the instructor is. One of the instructors stops between each song and that drives me nuts! All the other instructors have their music ready to go and we don't have any "wait" time. At our gym they have a Zumba class for beginners two times a week, that might be something you could look into. But I will give you some of the advice my friend gave me when I first started...she made me promise to do it five times before I made my decision on whether I liked it or not. At first the moves seemed so complicated but after the third time...I was hooked and basically knew all the basic steps.

I learned this the hard way too (even though I also had been told not to drink if I got stuck!) I am so hard headed sometimes! And you will definitely know when you have something stuck! Another bit of advice...DON'T lay down either!!!
