chicky97 redsock101fan: Running can help you lose weight but exercising is only half the deal to losing weight. it's more important to eat correctly and using exercising to tone your muscles. but yes, running is a good cardio exercise.

chicky97 worked out today for an hour and a half. i ran, did suicides and lifted weights and did some ab workouts. really energized now. :)

4/10/2011 6:31:04 PM | Report

lover_of_life That's my workout too! Except i don't have weight :/ haha

4/10/2011 6:45:38 PM | Report

chicky97 haha. I don't really like lifting weights but my dad makes me. He thinks I'm to weak. haha

4/10/2011 8:16:14 PM | Report

lover_of_life just looking up new abs exercises since that is the main area I am trying to tone.

4/10/2011 4:06:54 PM | Report

chicky97 then they should throw your ankles towards the floor, not to hard though. don't let your feet touch the floor and bring your feet back up and have them catch your feet and throw them again. just a suggestion. good luck!

lover_of_life are really good :)

chicky97 yeah, I like the tone it up videos too.

4/11/2011 6:42:33 AM | Report

lover_of_life Thanks :) I have another one kind of like that but you can do it by yourself. You just put your legs straight up in the air 90 degrees to your body and then you lower them up and down slowly. Great exercise! Also, the tone it up vids on youtube

4/10/2011 9:59:22 PM | Report

chicky97 i have a good exercise, you need a partner though. so, lay on the floor and have your partner stand just behind your head and you grab their ankles. then swing your feet up and have them catch your ankles.

[[lipglosslover]] And I guess you guys are probably wanting some information about me as well. (: haha. Well my name is Corrin Lee (pronounced like Corinthians without the thians) and I'm fifteen. I'm a freshman this year (: and so far my first year of high school is going great! I'm about 5' 8'' with brown hair, even though a lot of the time I act blonde. (: I'm a HUGE fan of Jesus Christ (: and do my best to let him shine everyday. I am OBSESSED with piano and playing. I started taking lessons when I was 6, so I guess I'm kind of advanced. Haha. I love classical music--especially playing it. (: I also like singing a lot. I'm in choir, and my choir teacher has been working with me a lot on my voice. I also play tuba (: a few days ago I got the urge to check out my GL profile; I hadn't been on in a really long time. So I came on here...and saw that you could make real clubs! I was so excited. (: I immediately thought that I should start a club for girls all about trying to get healthy together. Hence why this club is here (: if you have any questions about me...don't be afraid to ask!
