3 Reasons to Workout with the Wiggles
Posted by Andrea Higgins on Jan 3, 2013 in This, That and the Other | 8 commentsI made a New Year’s resolution to workout and lose weight (really original, right?
)… but one of my challenges is scheduling my workouts. So, I’ve started working out with the Wiggles show which works because …
1) it’s got a lot of cardio moves - look at the amount of kicks and jumps in this video!
2) my kids love the show and the dancing anyway; hopefully it will tire them out as much as it tires me out.
3) it’s a free workout! (I always love free) No gym membership required!
I could probably do the same with the Fresh Beat Band - but those moves are too complicated for me

I love this. Mind you, my two are 17 and 22, so I am not in the Wiggles-room. But this makes me smile because we used to watch DragonTales, and they had standard dance-exercise number in the middle of every show, which did me good in every way. I also like your approach to taking action toward this worthy goal. Matches a quote I like: Do what you can, where you are, using what you have. Happy New Year to you and yours.
Hello! Thanks for the comment! I wonder if your two children even remember dancing to the Dragon Tales? But you are exactly right – I’m trying to get ‘er done
. Happy New Year to you too!
It doesn’t bother you that while you’re losing weight, you may also be losing your mind? I barely survived The Teletubbies and Barney. In fact, I’m not sure I did.
ugh … The Teletubbies (throwing up in my mouth – lol) It’s already a lost cause about losing my mind…lol. I know that because in the beginning I was slightly – let’s say – unnerved at the sight of these almost grey-haired men dancing with a stuffed dinosaur – and now we refer to them by first name ..”Anthony eats his broccoli.” Yes, I’ve surrendered
I actually bought a gym membership in “November of last year with the intent of going and I ended up getting sick the second week and I haven’t been back since. But I am going back starting monday. Keep me accountable? lol
Lol…yes I will try if you do the same for me …lol! Need some accountability blogs
I Love it! Never thought to pump it up with the wiggles. I am also going to try and get the heart rate up…. maybe songs from Phinneas and Ferb.
Yes! Sounds like a plan!
