How many sets and reps does this equal to (so I can track them accurately)? Thanks.

[sparkpeople]

Varies for each exercise, but should be appox 10 (no more than 15) per exercise.

When you say pull in your abs,i get confused.

Do you mean like suck in our stomach?

Someone pleas reply!

=] Thanks.

Love these vids!

[sparkpeople]

Yes, that's what it means. Engaging your abs, pulling them in, etc--it means pulling your belly button in toward your back, which contracts the abs.

i love that this is free because people should not have to pay to stay healthy:) I like having motivation or else I can't control my diet. exercising is easy though.ahh this bootcamp doesn't work unless you also change your diet, though! so eat healthier, guys!

Excersise, in combination with healthy eating, is a great lifestyle change. Never think of it as "dieting" because diets are temporary, and never believe that common misconception of muscle weighing more than fat - They weigh the same! Muscle only takes up less space!

[angieangieish]

i was wondering if these workouts will burn fat or build muscle? i really need to burn fat first. so which is it if anyone knows?

thanks...
