Belly Dancing for Fitness
Belly dancers aren't just wiggling and jiggling their hips; they're getting an ab workout that sculpts almost every single muscle in their core -- even the hard-to-target, deep transverse abdominals, says Rania Androniki Bossonis, author of Belly Dancing for Fitness (Fair Winds Press, 2004). Do this 10-minute routine once a day and you'll shimmy your way to a sexy stomach.

7/15/2011 02:56:34 PM Report AbuseI've been a belly dancer for over 3 years and have the abs to prove it. You also need to work on cardio, obviously, to get rid of the fat on top of your new rock hard abs, but it is a great workout and not just for abs. Proper belly dance posture strengthens your back, thighs and surprisingly your shoulders. I would highly recommend trying to find a local troupe and practice with them - as a whole, we're a great group of people and always welcome beginners to our craft!
