Like so many others I do not always have time to get to the gym in the morning or the money. I prefer the comfort of my bedroom for a total workout but having a good motivating workout is necessary. I like to try new workouts that incorporate exercising with fun new moves and routines. In the last year I have learned to belly dance, picked up tons of new Latin and hip hop dance moves, and made myself dizzy with a hula hoop. There are so many great Fitness DVDs out there for every body type, time frame, hard to please person, and first timers. I like to do a couple different routines during each week to mix things up but everyone is different and should find what works best for them. Here are some of the newest and favorites of mine and several friends to help you find your perfect at home workout.

For the dancer or wanna be dancer

Dance Off the Inches: Tummy Tone Party Zone! is a favorite of mine and several of my friends. I like it for its zone specific workouts that you know are working when you finish a set. My friends like it because the workout includes fun and easy to learn dance moves that even the rhythmically challenged can follow along to. Fun music and lively set keep this routine from becoming boring.

Latinasize is my favorite of all my workout DVDs because of the dancing. I never saw Strictly Come Dancing, but this Latin dance workout is led by one of the participants of the show Lilia Kopylova. This is a quick paced workout that not all of my friends can keep up with even though they attempt most of it just because it is so fun and Lilia is so very encouraging. There are five different workouts and each targets a different area of your body. Extreme fun and you really pick up some great dance moves that you can use later on the dance floor. After a month of this workout I do not even become short of breath after hours on the dance floor without stopping.

For the Yoga Fan

Now for an extreme change of pace try Mark Blanchard's Progressive Power Yoga: The Stretch. My college yoga workouts have nothing on the workout I get in the mornings with this DVD. Mark will lead you through a thorough workout that focuses on increasing your flexibility. I do not recommend this DVD for yoga beginners, but is a definite must for those who have been doing yoga and are looking for a new impressive workout.

For Those Passionate About Pilates

10 Minute Solution: Rapid Results Pilates is straightforward Pilates with guaranteed results. This intense workout is so good but also very demanding so I only do two ten minute workouts per week. I have a couple guy friends who secretly workout to this DVD because they say it is the quickest way to firm up neglected arms and abs. If you are a devoted gym user but find the need to take time off this is a great fitness DVD to keep your body toned and flexible.

Each of these fitness DVDs work wonders for my friends and I, but as I said earlier everyone is different so ask around and see what your friends and family use and recommend. Ask friends to borrow theirs for a morning and give it a test run till you find one or a couple that fit into your life.

Fitness is important in many aspects of life. It is the key to good health, which affects how you live your life. It also comes useful in many other ways in life.

Fitness is the key to good health. Along with eating healthy, exercising every day can keep your body fit and reduce your chances of heart attack or stroke. A healthy body also usually means a longer and more enjoyable life, without worrying about obesity-related and other illnesses, like diabetes and asthma (especially after retirement), and can make you feel younger and more active.

Fitness is also useful in many other aspects of life. Besides getting that A in PE class, being fit and healthy means that a person has more stamina and better conditioning to work on those tough jobs that require carrying heavy loads and working long hours at the desk without falling asleep. Moving furniture require carrying heavy things, as does grocery shopping (for those that spend $200-$300 on groceries per week) If you're working on a farm, you especially have to have very good conditioning, as carrying hay bales, raking, and gathering straw and hay for 14 hours a day can be especially grueling. Having some extra strength at hand is good for getting out of tough spots, as everyone has once in a while. Fitness is useful in playing sports; with good conditioning a person can be there when his team needs him most, and spend more time on the field, instead of resting on the bench.

Fitness keeps the body healthy. A healthy body means a more active, and enjoyable lifestyle, and is beneficial to many ways of life.

Check out a decent post that I was sent to us last night

Since the creation of the iPod around the turn of the 21st century, the way that consumers use this revolutionary device has grown in amazing ways. Apple has continuously pushed the limits of the iPod to bring greater and greater entertainment value to its customers. One of the ways in which consumers can now enjoy their iPod is listening to audiobooks. The iTunes Store, Audible and other services sell electronic audiobooks which can be downloaded and will go directly into the iTunes audiobook section and can then be synchronized with the user's iPod. But there is no doubt that you may have some audiobooks on CD or in mp3 format that you wish to load into iTunes. By default the importation of these files will simply go into your Music section of iTunes and it can be nearly impossible to figure out how to get them to show up as actual audiobooks in the Audiobooks section of iTunes. I want to show you how you can import your audiobooks from CD or mp3 into iTunes and have them show up in the Audiobooks section of iTunes so that you can properly manage them.

Getting Your Audiobooks from CD

To get your audiobooks from compact disc into your iTunes Audiobooks library you will begin by importing the content from the CD just like any music CD. But before you insert the CD, you will need to change your preferences so that iTunes will import the content in the AAC format. This is essential for this process to work. Go to Preferences from the iTunes pull-down menu (Mac) or under the Edit pull-down menu (Windows). From the General tab select “Import Settings” and then choose “AAC Encoder” from the “Import Using:” drop-down menu. Select OK to confirm.

Now import the tracks from your book's CD. Chances are there will be multiple tracks and perhaps multiple discs. Simply import them all. It may help to put them all on a playlist so that you can organize them which will useful later in the process. Once they are all imported in the AAC format it is just a matter of adjusting a few settings. First you will want to give the tracks meaningful names. This will allow you to be able to tell iTunes that those tracks are part of the same audiobook. Select the first track of the book, right-click and select “Get Info”. For the first track, for Name, enter the title of the book followed by 01/X where X equals the total number of tracks. The next track's name will be title of the book forllowed by 02/3. The double digit for the first number is essential allowing iTunes to properly sort the tracks by title and in the right order. Put the book's author in the Artist field, and the title of the book in the Album field. Enter the track Number also. If you desire to put any Comments (such as name of the narrator) do that here. Finally select Audiobook for the Genre. Finish up by clicking OK or click Next to proceed to the next track. This can no doubt be time consuming but it is necessary.

Importing and Converting Mp3's Into Audiobooks in iTunes

If the tracks you have are already on your computer in mp3 format, you can still convert them using iTunes. Once you get the mp3's into iTunes simply highlight all of the tracks for the audiobook, right-click, and select “Create AAC” and iTunes will do the work for you. After it has finished you can delete the mp3 versions from your Library to avoid confusion. Now go through the same process of change the tracks' Get Info information as was mentioned in the previous section.

Create your audiobook

Once you have adjusted all of the Get Info data for your tracks, it is now a cinch to get the tracks into the audiobooks section of iTunes. Select all of the tracks for that audiobook, right-click and select Get Info, and from under the Options tab change the Media Kind to “Audiobook”. Select Ok. You can now click on Audiobooks in the iTunes sidebar and you will see the icon for your audiobook. At this point you can get album artwork for your audiobook, sort by Artists (i.e. authors) and genres, and sync your audiobook to your iPod.

I hope this helps you to be able to sort and manage your audiobooks better in iTunes. Leave a comment and let me know how it is working out for you and also share with me and the other readers other ways you have for managing audiobooks in iTunes and on the iPod. Good luck!
