Question by T_TsakuraT_T: What are the best exercise videos out there that are preferably quick, fun, and really work.?
I am I’d say pretty in shape I would like to get a little more hard exercise in. I prefer dance-y things or yoga or pilates. I don’t have any equipment though, except for some 3, 7 and 8 pound weights. I’ll take any suggestions, what’s your favorite??

Look into yoga and qi gong. They don’t look like hard work but wait until you try them! LOL

stomache exercise=Lie on the floor, legs straight out, hands at your sides. Lift your legs straight up (not bending your knees at all) until they’re at a 90 degree angle (or close). Lower your legs and repeat without letting your legs touch the floor. For more challenge there is equipment at most gyms that will allow you to raise yourself up using your arms as support and dangle your legs. You can perform leg lifts there too. If you’re using this piece of equipment, you can make it easier by just raising your knees to your chest. It’s more difficult to raise your legs to a horizontal position with your legs straight. This helps firm up the lower abdomen. If you’re truly a monster, try doing leg lifts with a medicine ball hanging from your feet. Or hang from a pull up bar and raise your legs in front of you all the way up to the bar.
