In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Hip hop dancing relies a lot on the contrast between loose, flowing moves and quick, jerky ones. Generally, the hips are kept loose while the arms and hands perform sudden, dramatic movements, though quick hip moves are not uncommon either. The first step to making your dancing more hip hop-like is to embrace this contrast. Popping and locking are two dance styles that provide a foundation for a lot of hip hop dance technique. Learning the basics of both will allow you to quickly look more like Beyonce while dancing.  Popping: This is a bouncy style of dancing that requires the isolation of body parts, moving them in succession, to the beat. To perform popping, imagine a wave moving through your body, making your body parts move one after another. Locking: The basic concept of locking is to move quickly and then freeze, and then continue moving at the same speed as before. This can be applied to both the whole body or to one body part at a time. Usually, locking involves jerky arm movements and a looser hip area, which moves to the beat. Once you understand the basics of popping and locking, you can learn a few basic hip hop moves that will get you started. These moves are the kind of things they'll teach you at almost any beginner's hip hop dancing class.  Hip step: Start in the standard position with your feet shoulder length apart and knees slightly bent. Kick one foot out in front of you, then swing it to the outside of your other foot, crossing your legs. Then uncross your legs by moving your other foot back into standard position. Repeat in the other direction. Slide and step: From the standard position, move your feet closer together. Then step far to the side with one foot. Slide the other foot towards the first foot and then step it back into place next to the first foot. Then repeat in the other direction. Arm cross: Lean your torso forward a bit. Spread your arms in either direction, outwards but still pointing toward the floor. Then swing your arms both in and cross them in front of you. Move your hips back and forth to the beat as you do this.
Summary: Utilize both relaxed and jerky movements. Introduce popping and locking into your dancing. Master some of the basic moves of hip hop dancing.

Problem: Article: If you're tired, it can be easy to just grab whatever is handy. Instead of reaching for a bag of chips or a pint of ice cream, try something a little more healthy but equally filling. Keep your pantry and refrigerator stocked with nutritious foods so you don't reach for something that can set you back.  Fruits, carrot sticks, granola and cereal bars, nuts, wheat crackers, low-fat cheese and yogurt are all relatively easy to prepare but will leave you satisfied. If you take some time to split bulk foods into individual portions ahead of time, that will help when you don't have the energy to prepare something. It may be hard to find time to nap, but this will help reset your body to give you more energy in the daytime and give your body the rest it needs to repair itself, which includes losing pregnancy weight. In addition, sleeping when you're tired helps decrease the amount of cortisol in your blood; this is the stress hormone that can make it harder for you to lose weight. After the first few months, you can go back to your previous workout routine. You may find at first that you've lost fitness; be patient with yourself while you work back up to your pre-baby fitness level.  Try cardio exercises like running, swimming, biking or hiking several times per week for half an hour at a time. Do light weight training to gain muscle strength. Take an aerobics class designed specifically for new moms. The instructor will focus on "trouble" areas to help you get back to your pre-pregnancy body. Take a post-pregnancy yoga class to improve your muscle tone. This could be a "mommy and me" type class or just a fun group of ladies in your town who lean on each other for support. These women can help you stay motivated and focused on your goal of losing baby weight.
Summary:
Watch your snack intake. Sleep when you need to. Do heavier workouts. Locate a support group for new moms.
