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.

Survivor Workout

My inner thighs were killing me before doing this workout but they're right when they say that working out will help make your sore muscles feel better...until tomorrow morning :(...For this workout I found the break dance push-ups really hard to coordinate because my arms were too close to my body after finishing the kicks so I spent most of my time shifting around my feet.  As for the one-legged squat...I'm still working on building strength in the 2 legs so that's what I did...used both for that exercise.

I think I'm going to revise my push-up challenge to a number that will be a little more attainable for me..30..and who knows with the training maybe I'll surprise myself...but for now that's the goal.
Backwards lunge w/kick-up left: 22, 19
Backwards lunge w/kick-up right: 22, 20
One arm Press-up: 10, 10
2 Kick-up, w/break dance push-up: 7, 4
Pike Jump and Squat Jump: 8, 8

Squats with jump tuck, 50 reps in 5 minutes.
