Technique Tips

Lateral Crunch with Lateral Bicep Curl

Avoid shrugging the shoulders at the end of the bicep curl. Rather, allow your abdominals to lead your torso as you tip to the side. Then use the opposing oblique muscles to pull your torso back to neutral position.

Pulsing Hip Extension

This movement begins in a supine position with your knees bent and feet on the floor. You want to push your hips up to a bridge position so that your trunk is in one straight line. From there, execute the movement by squeezing your glutes and then releasing to neutral. Keep in mind that you want to maintain the bridge position when you release.

Jazzercise Continues to Grow!

When Judi Sheppard Missett first created Jazzercise back in 1969, she was "it." There were no other instructors. But once she officially launched the program after moving to southern California in 1972, Jazzercise experienced phenomenal popularity and growth. This involved the support and enthusiasm of additional franchisees and many, many customers. And guess what? It hasn't slowed down one bit! In fact, today, 37 years later, Jazzercise is going strong with more than 6,800 franchisees promoting fitness to our wonderful customers in all 50 states and 30 countries worldwide. Thank you from all of us at Jazzercise!

Translating the Fat

Source: iVillage.com

It's a fact...and a fat -- trans-fatty acids have become more and more recognizable as the "bad guys" in terms of increasing heart disease. Trans fats form when liquid oils such as soybean or safflower oil are partially hydrogenated. This process makes them more solid at room temperature. Starting in 2006, all food labels have begun to list trans-fatty acids. To find more heart-friendly foods, find and add the combined total grams of the "bad fats" -- trans fat and saturated fat. Choose the foods with the lowest value.
