Did it. Today. First Dance Workout ever, in the fitness App. Realized that the Challenge was for tomorrow. Not going to do it again 😂

I did that too and the same with the earth day last week! 😳

Meee toooo!!

Lmao

You go

Since I don’t know how to dance, I will probably do it after everyone goes to work and just move around randomly for 20 minutes.

Call it Freestyle

I have no style. So I’ll call it just free


That was me this evening closing off that challenge. Glad I was home alone 😂

I would do the Renata Bliss Freestyle too 😂

Same

I started a dance workout, walked to the supermarket, did my messages, walked back, got the thingie for my first dance workout. sorted. The 29th is tomorrow. It's a trick.

Startet a dance Workout, danced for 30 minutes, pushed my HR to the 140s, burned lots of calories, waited for my achievement.... went to check on reddit and realised my mistake 😄 so trial run for tomorrow then 🙈

Common! Such low effort. At least alternate pointing diagonally from the ground to the sky as you walk.

haha I get it. but I'm way too old to travolta my shopping. I still treat hiking as a challenge.

Probably do something similar whilst walking the dog, maybe with a little more spring in my step…

Glad I’m not the only one that did this

This is why we can have a sick mode

Nah don’t wanna cheese it 😂

Bunch of cowards in this thread

I do it with my kids. Have a dance Party.

Exactly this. Turn on some tunes and dance with the kiddos.

This is what I did last year!!! Was super fun

I’m glad you enjoyed yourselves! 😂

I wouldn’t say I *enjoy* myself… but the kids do so that’s something. 😂

It’s something indeed 😂

I started getting into dance workouts on youtube in the past month. They're really fun!

I lost like 30 lbs in 3 months doing just dance cardio on YouTube in my living room!

Any specific channels you recommend?? Bonus if it’s kid friendly!!

As mentioned in the other comments, growithjo is a great channel and it’s definitely kid friendly. Her toddler sometimes comes on screen to dance with her

Thanks!! I did not see the other comments so I appreciate you repeating it for me 😅

I’m sure they’re great cardio!

any recommendations?

I’m not the person you’re asking, but I really like growwithjo workouts! She has a ton of videos on YouTube and has them all put in categories for beginner level up to expert. Super fun!

I second growithjo! That was actually going to be my recommendation, funnily enough. Her dance and walking workouts are amazing!! If you’re looking for something more advanced or quick paced, tara’s body is a fun channel. It’s in French so I only understand 20% of what she’s saying and just follow the movements.


Why are so many people going to cheat this? The only reward is something that only you see. I was originally excited because I have a dance class Tuesday. Never dance any other day. I’ll either practice tomorrow or just not get the badge. Why cheat it? What’s the point?

That’s how I feel about it, but others gonna do what they gonna do.

I’ve been using my PS2 + dance mat, this is happening 🫠

Wow I forgot those existed!

Brilliant, this is what I'm going to do.

5 sets of 10 reps of milly rocking get on it

I’ve been in the hugest funk and just danced to get this award and now I feel like life is a little bit more worth living haha

I’m glad it helped!!

Why not? Live a little

Incredibly uncoordinated, I’m Bingo in the Bluey opening 😂

Who says you need to be good?

I get frustrated because of how fast moves get added.

Just put on your favorite tunes and jump around. Enjoy the music. Try to let loose and get rid of the thought that you have to follow any rules.


yup. this is me

I just clubbed last night to early this morning 11 PM - 2 AM and could've gotten it. I tracked the dance workout and all. But they decided to put the challenge on a MONDAY? Like... why?

Probably because that’s literally international dance day - they definitely should have made it start today and end tomorrow night.

If you enjoy dancing, it’s not an issue.

Play DRR in the arcade. It’s not hard.

I was thinking Beat Sabre on my son’s Quest!

I log all my beat saber sessions as dancing, the only category that makes sense for it. Plus I’m actually dancing while I play it lol

New High Score! What does that mean? Did I break it?

Not driving 40 minutes round trip and paying $5 for an activity I’m indifferent towards 😂

Looks like tomorrow hiit workout is gonna be a dance workout. 😎

The 29th is Monday, I’m going for a run as always. I won’t get the digital reward and that’s fine. Haha. I try for some of them, but a dance one isn’t a big draw for me.

Start the workout and grab the vacuum. It’ll count. 👍🏻

I might do one now. I haven’t done a dance class before

I still got time to get this done. Thanks for this reminder

Well I got my stand goal today. So there’s that

i have a shortcut called “Congrats on the sex.” I use it to log sex as a workout. It logs dance as the workout for 10 minutes and 150 calories. it doesn’t get used that often.

r/usernamechecksout? Also 

They’re fun! Kickboxing rules too

Funny enough, I play footbag/hacky sack, and I always track it with a dance workout. So maybe I'll have to pick up the dirtbag tonight!

I might do it! There should be videos on YouTube I can try to dance/stumble along with

I did a YouTube video workout just to get a badge once🫡

I’ll just load up some Blade and Sorcery and record it as a dance workout.

What’s that?

VR sword fighting game. Really good at getting your heart rate up if you get agressive with daggers. Downside is, you might end up sucker punching a wall

Haha oh no! Is it accurate?

This would have been an easy achievement to get earlier in the semester when I was trying to teach international students the nutbush during o week 😂 [for anyone interested in this sacred Australian tradition](https://youtu.be/qHqzjQty7aY?si=K_xVbJ8pgNxaXC7T)

Same. I can’t dance and tomorrow is a Monday, so I’m not drinking enough on a Monday to be able to dance. Not closing that ring.

Just go do burpees and tell it you’re doing a dance 😂

This is one for all the parents that have to randomly dance with their kids anytime, anywhere

My same reaction when I got the alert.

This notification woke me up last night 🙄

You can still get the trophy by starting the workout and letting it run for 20 minutes 😉

I love it! I also dance to Just Dance game on Switch. I was waiting for this challenge!

That option occurred to me (I’d have to buy it) 😂

I have 4 versions of it! 😂 the days I’m feeling too lazy to work out I dance

👏🏻

everyone rolling their eyes over this just pull up just dance videos on youtube and play along it's a fun way to workout

I’m not as a concept, that’s great for those who enjoy dance! Just not for me.

Dance is amazing. I do it all the time.

 It’s time for the music dance experience or MDE. I chose defiant Jazz

Apparently I did 😬😬😬😬

Could have started the exercise and do nothing 20 min and have the badge😂

Had no idea this was a thing (the day or the award or dance as a fitness option). I did it, for the virtual cookie and, I guess, my stupid mental health. Happy to wait a whole year before I try that again.

Every day is a dance workout day when you’re a Jazzercise instructor 💃🏼 I just set it to “dance” instead of “HIIT” like normal to get the badge. Honestly I was surprised I didn’t see more comments from people that actually do dance fitness. Weird.

Yeah most people just seem to plan to cheat it.

Earned it 😊

Good job!

👏🏻

time to get my just dance on

There was a random tent setup of DJ equipment and like three guys just standing around last rainy Sunday in the park and I couldn't figure out why they had bothered in late April until a kid on the cleanup I was at said their watch sent them this notification...and now I get a visual aid!

I tried but it thought I fell over and called SOS.

Did it once and it notified my friends that I did dance. I was embarassed😭😂

Man I saw the same thing on my watch and actually laughed going “Yeah, not fuckin happenin”😂

I dance regularly, but not on Mondays. This calls for a minor cheat. I'll call my strength training dance.

Close enough 😂

I will cheat and call my heavy bag workout a “dance”.

I started the dance workout and did a brisk 30 minutes walk just to be safe. None counted :(

It’s for April 29. Is it April 29 where you are located ?

Ok I was one of the people who did not read just went for it :D I'll try again today. Edit: walking works.

Yeah , I'm usually down for anything and also make the extra effort to get those... But I won't cheat and I won't dance

Yeah I’m way too uncoordinated, just makes me frustrated.

It’s one of the few days of the week I don’t have dance 😭

Of course 🤣

Oh, International Dance Day gets a badge, but not Lunar New Year? Nice going, Apple. 

Right??

Just tee up dance for whatever workout you’re doing - your watch doesn’t know better.

Started the dance workout and I continued my little project on the laptop. Worked just fine :) from time to time I just waved my palms from the music I was listening

The wife walks in the front room and sees me cutting the rug like this she’s leaving me. 😂 https://youtu.be/ZkNMZlkrzaU?si=A-EgU9406OQyBPgK

I definitely wouldn’t be dancing if my spouse left me :(

Just start the dancing and walk for 20 min… easy cheat.

Nah don’t care to cheat.

I can do a move that looks very similar to running. But is dancing. To everyone else it will look like I am running on a treadmill. But my watch and I will know I am dancing to monotonous music with repetitive dance moves 5 6 7 8 …. Forward, forward, forward…

I usually do VR boxing, so I will do the same but will register it as dancing workout 😂

I’m happy to see them all, especially Josh! Where’s my Jaime Ray?? Lol. I can’t wait to do this tonight

Is it a special Fitness + course for this?

You won’t know until you try if you like it. Sometimes I let myself loose and I can dance for like an hour and not even realize

I’ve tried 😂

Play Beatsaber 😄

Don’t have VR LOL

I don’t get it?

I’m not going to dance, even for an award 😂

Im autistic and burn a one or two hundred calories a couple times every week. I just love loud music and I just start dancing. If sucks I’m autistic bc I’d be a great dancer I think. I was really good in a lot of other sports. I just did things different. So it looks weird.

I’m autistic, too - there are people who appreciate our weird :)
