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.

The Trainer Who Loved Me Workout

I remember this workout, and those star lifts.  By the time I got to the monkey business my legs where shaking on the way up and back down from the jumps.  I had no strength left in my arms for the full set of push-ups for this.  I went bouldering again this morning for 1.5 hrs which was awesome, but used up a lot of my upper body strength for the day, so I manage to do 45 plain old push-ups with the break dance move and then the rest from my knees. My time was 32:08.

  1. I'm not gonna lie. I was terrified of this workout from the moment I saw it. For good reason! I did it this morning instead of yesterday...had a stomach issue yesterday and didn't think that THIS would help! Anyway, it sucked. Honestly, halfway through the star lifts, I couldn't imagine how I was going to finish. Ick... I did everything full form, except the final breakdance push-ups. By then, my entire body was shaking and my arms and abs were burning. I did exactly one knee tuck with the push-ups. Then about a third full-form regular push-ups, and the rest in terrible form from my knees. Whatever...it's done! 30:03.

    Jody played hockey yesterday.

    We'll see how my arms are tonight to determine if I'll do today's tonight, or tomorrow!
