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.

Hot Warrior Workout

I've decided or I should say my body has told me that I need to make a few changes in my lifestyle, so I'm listening and going to try and work through the fog and figure out what needs to really change.  One being that I need more sleep, so starting today I'm going to be doing my workouts in the morning or during the day, so I will be rested and ready for bed early...like 10:30!!! Yesterday  I managed 11:00.  My usual is 1:00 or so...so that's one thing, the next is to drink more during the day...so lots of decaf stuff, like teas and good old water. I'm going to start here and see how it goes...almost like bodyrock's diet challenge a step at a time.  So here are my results for this workout with a few adjustments because I didn't add the left and right to the lunges and the crabs...no wonder I had extra sets on my timer...lol oh well.
Backward/forward lunge 15, 13, 11, 11
Core Split 20, 15, 16, 15
Dynamo Push-ups 15, 12, 11, 9,5
Sleeping Crab 12, 14, 13, 13
