I've started school and now it seems like i don't have the time to exercise except wwhen i go to yoga on tuesday nights. Is there anyway i can make time to do my school work, AND exercise? Thanks in advance!

i have the same problem with skating..school always seems to get in the way lol try making a schedule so you can do your school work like right after school and work out a little later in the day or the other way around might work out a bit better for you
good luck!!*

Okay, I am 5'7"-ish and around 120 pounds. Sometimes I think I could use a bit of toning up. Well. it's mainly my stomach and sides. I know how to tone my stomach but the problem is I can't get my sides to tone. See, I have wide hips in my opinion and they have a bit of fat on them. I could probably fit into a size 3 instead of 5 if I could just tone my sides. Does anyone have any exersises that will give me a smaller waist and hips? Thanks!

to loose fat on the sides try doing crunches with your knees down on one side and then the other without stopping also try leg lifts one foot at a time with out putting you foot down
good luck!!*
