Back to school and doing my ABC’s all over again in a whole new way! Instead of the pencil and paper I am using my body! 😉

I chose to focus on cardio today because I still felt pretty sore from the workouts earlier in the week. I feel it is important to flush the body with circulation to workout all the lactic acid and to bring blood flow to all the sore muscles so they can heal faster.

In the video I shared that I wrote out a brainstorming list of all the fun ways I wanted to move and exercise my body. I thought I’d share some of the things that were on my list here.

1. Pilates
2. Power Yoga
3. 5 K race with my kids
4. Zumba (there is a local upcoming event called Zumba in da Club that I might hit up too)
5. Kettlebell (did this with Naim on Day 5)
6. Rollerskating (did that with Julia on Day 2)
7. Surfing (I practiced in the pool on Day 4)
8. Bike riding along the beach
9. Hiking (while the weather is amazing) even better if it is a wild edibles hike 😉
10. Playing on my kids Ripstik
11. Belly dance
12. Gymnastics
13. Play on the rings and bars on Santa Monica beach
14. Kayak
15. Hula hoop workout (this sounds silly, but I loved doing it as a child and I have no idea how a hula hoop workout looks like)
16. Strip tease/pole
17. Acro yoga/ Partner Yoga ( I like using my kids on some of the acro yoga poses, but they insist they are too grown up to play like that)
18. Pussycat Dolls Workout/ Burlesque style dancing
19. Athletic Sex/Tantra  (this one is on a waiting list until I am in a committed relationship)
20. Climb the Stairs in Laguna Beach
21. Boot camp
22. Obstacle Course
23. Capeoira
24. Brazilian Booty (I wanna do this with my friend, Teresa Jordan who says she goes to THE BEST class for this)
25. Swing on a Trapeze (I may save this for when my muscles are stronger and I can do more)
26. Kite surf
27. Wind surf
28. Wake board
29. Snowboard (this will have to wait until the season is calling my name)
30. JUST dance …swing, salsa, bollywood, etc…. any or all of the above I am DOWN!!!

Dancing is ABSOLUTELY my favorite way to get in a cardio workout! The Pussycat Dolls Workout is something that I can see my girlfriends and I getting together and having a good laugh while we learn the moves to this workout.

I love the sexy hot bodies, I love the music, I love the cocky vibe, I love the skimpy outfits that show long and lean muscles.

This workout screams, “I am sexy and I know it!” It really has a lot to do with your attitude and how confident you are in your own skin. Body confidence is something I have struggled with over the years and just this workout alone seems to get me FEELING like a hot mama!

I love that this is a home workout that I can practice in the privacy of my own home without feeling that eyes are on me. I get to just let go, be goofy and enjoy my own sexiness. This workout is huge on cardio, coordination and rhythm.
