I am a “Bodyrocker” and one of the big reasons I created this blog was to create a place to connect and share with other moms, record results and experiences for our daily workouts.
Here is the Bodyrock link. Once you get to the site click on “Home workouts”, and then go into “All Workouts” and click on the post that is 3 days behind. I workout 3 days behind the Bodyrock posts so I don’t have to worry about when they are going to updated it for each day. Each morning I will post my results for the workout of that day and I hope the rest of you will join me. If you would like to have that extra push and accountability, click the link to follow the Memom Body-n-mind blog and each week the daily posting will be reviewed. If there is anyone who needs some extra motivation an email with some words of encouragement can be sent. Speaking from experience this is best coming from a third party person…a husband offering the…and I quote “don’t you need to be working out”, in a very supportive way, doesn’t always have the same affect…trust me, or you can ask my husband. If you check out the site and think, that you would rather go for a run or hike or some other kind of physical activity, please still log your daily workout, and get connected…us moms need to feel connected.

So get your journal book to record your times and numbers…because you’ll want to refer back and see how much you’ve improved over time and then you can set out to beat YOUR personal best.

Here is a link for a free online interval timer that you can use for the workouts.
Remember to always do a warm-up and stretch and a cool-down and stretch for each workout…the Bodyrock site has an example of those posted as well.

Halo Of Sweat Workout

This morning I had another date with Lilly at the barn, and man were my legs already hurting half way through the ride, which is bad sign on what's to come.  So since I was already sweaty and really smelly I figured I might as well do the workout before hitting the shower. Now I have had tightness in my hip flexors before, but never a cramp, and HOLY #^&%, does that hurt.  It attacked during the those darn reptiles and I'm still trying to stretch it out. The results were ok for this one...I did make sure I did the full arm form for the push-ups which felt so great with my already sore chest, and now I have the matching legs and abs to go with it...Perfect...I'll be walking pretty tomorrow, here are my reps:
Sumo Jumps w/knee ups: 14, 15, 15
Sumo Pulse Calve raise: 23, 23, 21
Reptile on the run: 40, 30, 19
Reptile Push-ups, 2, 2, 2
Knee Hugs: 16, 11, 9
Ab burn out: 39, 37, 42
