Music moves me!

Hi all,

Hi Cathe,

Had to share this. Yesterday I popped in the "Legs & Glutes" DVD before previewing. I'm doing the workout and when it gets to the deadlifts, I hear a very upbeat version of "Wishing on a Star."
I drop my dumbells to the floor, push the step out of the way, pick up the remote, crank the music (love that audio option) and start dancing.

My SO comes down to the basement with a laundry basket, looks at me and says "So this is what you do when you're supposed to be working out!" I say, "I can't help myself, I love this song - put that basket down and dance." So, she does. The song ends. I pick up the dumbells and continue the workout. She picks up the laundry basket and heads for the washer. I know we must have looked like fools, but it was truly a Cathe moment for me. Now, I know I'll have to force myself to get through that song and stick to the deadlifts x( definitely not as much fun.

P.S. We laughed so hard about it later, tears were rolling down our faces.

I love the music Cathe uses also ...many a times it makes me want to do just what you described

Mar, that's so funny! And it's a little kooky, perhaps, but I think we could all stand more kookiness. Working out is terrific but laughter and zaniness make you feel so good! If I break into song or dance around here, I get booed out of the room. Your SO joined you and you shared some fun, so now when you hear that song and lift those weights you can tune into those happy momnents and it will be easier! Well, maybe not easier but more pleasant I'm sure!

I have to say...I ordered the CD for the Intensity Series music and I have caught myself rocking out and dancing around my living room.... There are 3 songs I just love...also like the music in Legs and Glutes too. Very cute story...and keep on dancing......Carole

I agree. The music in this series just rocks! I find myself tapping my toes while doing AB work and that is not a good thing if you are balancing on a ball! I particularly love the L&G's soundtrack. I think the Supersets music is great too. Thanks for sharing a HAPPY moment! http://www.click-smilies.de/sammlung0903/party/party-smiley-020.gif[/img]

I love her music too. I found myself moving around while listening to IMAX music. It's really good when an instructor's music can move you.
