As women cross the 25 age mark, they start getting worried about
getting old. Suddenly, taking care of their body becomes a priority,
because the strength will not stay put unless you make an effort to keep
your body fit and healthy. But I have noticed an irregularity in that
pattern. Most women’s concern is their beauty. They spend a lot on skin
and hair products to age gracefully.
But they forget that with age, their internal body is also getting
weak. The bones, stamina etc starts falling during the late 20s. To win
the battle against that, they need good workout options which can help
them maintain a healthy body and stronger bones.
So, we have listed a couple of fun workout ideas, which will motivate you to stay healthy and strong.
1. Hip Hop/Funk
Dancing is the most enjoyable form of workout. It burns a lot of
calories and you end up having a lot of fun, and also learning a new and
impressive skill. The hip and hot workout will make you sweat and
you’ll end up learning a lot of new groovy moves. The steps with impact
will also help in regaining bone strength.

This customizable yoga style influenced by aerobic exercise. There is
variation in poses after regular intervals which doesn’t let it get
boring. These calorie-burning exercise will strengthen your body,
