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.

Just Can't Get Enough Workout

This workout required some major brain power...hockey...I actually had to practise it for several minutes before I got the right idea...that being said I finished the 60 reps in 12:09....and boy I thought it would be the shoulders that would be burning the most, but it was the legs...I did 15 minutes of skipping this morning with the girls outside...and I am going to give myself a little pat on the back for being brave enough to do it at the front of the house for all the neighbours to see, but a pleasant surprise is that somehow, somewhere I have acquired coordination for this "skipping"thing.  I gave myself a little thrill by being able to do cross overs, high knees and scissors without whipping myself...amazing and I will have admit...FUN...skipping here I come.

    I tried this yesterday and got so dizzy after about 5, that I couldn't do it anymore. I seriously thought I was going to puke! So, I did a bunch of pushups, lunges, squats, and skipping exercises instead for about 12 minutes. Not a fan of Capoeira!
