Well my resolution was to lose 20 lbs by may and i have been eating salad for lunch instead of the bad stuff my school serves. Just recently my American musical theater class has gotten a dance instructor she comes in twice a week. to warm up she makes us do 3 sets 0f 25 crunches, 2 sets of 25 push-ups(which i can not do to save my life), she makes us do 4 different kinds of pliaes*thoes balerina squats, and these strattle streches then the rest of the block we are moving... the warmup seems like a lot on paper but it only lasts for like 15-25 mins so i was wondering 2 things... would this be enough exercise to where i could start loosing fat and possible gain muscle? and how can i get better at push ups? ohh and by the by I'm 5'4 and weigh 140lbsthanks ~Amanda
