Skipping rope is a good work-out. If you do this for a while you will notice that this is quite intensive. I especially like it because it is more of a fun workout. With skipping you burn at 10 min 1.4 cal a pound of your body weight. That means that someone who weighs 60kg will burn 84 calories in 10 minutes. And that means that you will burn 252 during half an hour. And of course you will get a good condition!
Today was a super sporty day! First I biked for 2 hours. And after dinner I went to the gym. When I came home I did a work out with my hula hoop. I feel so good after it all, I feel like my body is so alive. This are the calories that I truely burned today by exercising. 
I kept thinking: if it was easy to lose weight, everybody would be skinny. So I kept training and didn't stop, especially at the gym. At least you will never regret the workouts that you did. Only the ones you didn't do. So does this also makes you excited to come in action? Today definetly made me excited to go running more often from now on. The summer vacation is coming up soon, I can't wait to be bikini-fit and have lazy beach days with my friends in Spain. 
A few weeks ago a told about the hoop that I bought. I love hooping, exspecially at the gym. Now I have one at home, but the one that I bought turned out to be really forceful. The pink pressure points do press a lot on your hips. So you have to wear a big sweater at first until your body get used to it, and has developed more muscles. At first I got a few bruises, but after a while it went better. So I would recommend a hula hoop with soft studs. This are pictures from the progress. 
Yoga is really good for your body and mind. A lot of people think that this is amazing. There are a lot of different yoga styles. I have the feeling that it feels so much better to be in my body after a good yoga lesson. You don't have to go to a yoga studio to follow a lesson. It's maybe more interesting to go to a studio and do it with more people. But I have here some video's so you can do it even in your livingroom by just listening and watching the video's on your laptop or tv. The yoga site is called : www.doyogawithme.com . 
For a long time I always used random sport shoes when I went running. Now I bought the Lunarglide +4 running shoes from Nike. They are amazing! With these shoes my energy doesn't run out, I just keep running and jumping. They weigh 200 grams, almost nothing. Nike has also a really cool app, it's called Nike+ Running. You turn this app on when you start running and the app tells you how far and long you have been running. It tells you also how many calories you have burned. In the video below you see the nike shoes. Funny, when I run I feel like the girl in the video it goes really easy with this shoes haha. 
It's allready day 7, that means that i'm bussy for a week now. I can allready feel that my body is getting stronger. I have so much more engery all day long and I don't have cravings for candies like chocolate anymore. Tonight I went to the gym again, and i made a schedule from all the exercising that I do. This works really well for me, if you want you can try it for yourself.
My all time favorite is the cross trainer I do this for 30 minutes. During this exercise your body moves like you are running, but it goes is easier on this device. It's really intensive because you move your legs and your arms at the same time. That makes it that I burn 430 calories in 30 minutes.
When I go to my work I wear my Skechers. That are amazing shoes with a really big sole, which trains your leg muscles. It's an easy way to train since you already are walking. I work in a supermarket and I am therefore in constant motion. You can wear them almost everywhere, this is really a good and easy way to stay fit! You may already have seen the shoes on Kim Kardashian, she promoted the brand. There also comes a CD with the shoe's.There is a trainer on it, who helps you with special work outs. This is more intensive, but really fun to do in front of your TV.
