Stay at home moms!

  • I am having a hard time getting back into the exercise thing since I got over my cold last week. Like Mrs. Spratt posted I have good intentions to workout once I get my older kids on the bus for school, but I too can find other things that need to be done or my 18 month old needs attention. I may have to try getting up before the rest of the family to get in at least half of my work out.

    I have been doing Turbo Fire up to now and it is great!! I hope I can find the way back to TF on Monday!

    I love how this message board topic has grown!! :) Yay for all of the hardworking mommy's! Does anyone have any home videos you follow for exercise at home!?
  • I am at stay at home mom too....Cashton is 14 months. My health journey began when he was born. The best decision ever!! Down 70+ pounds and lots of inches...but still a ways to go. I'm always looking for motivation, health tips, recipes...
    I am also a Beachbody coach :) and loving it. Let me know if you have questions.
  • As a super busy mom I always struggled with getting workouts in at home. Now I am doing 10 minute trainer from Beachbody and LOVE them. Quick, intense, effective. I'm a coach too if you have other questions or wanna order.

    I am! Anyone can feel free to add me :)
  • My favorite dvds to do at home is Turbo Fire and Slim in Six. I love the intensity of Turbo Fire and I love the resistance training of Slim in 6. Eventually, I would like to get Chalene Extreme. That one looks like it could take the training to the next level. I love working out with Chalene because she is a good motivator, she pushes you. I have the 10 minute Trainer dvds, but I didn't like them as much. Beachbody is the way to go, I think.

    I would also like to try Jillian Micheals 30 Day Shred. Has anyone else tried this one? How do you like it?

    I like Chalean Extreme! It doesn't have the snappy Turbo Fire music but it's definitely effective. I prefer it to 30DS but 30DS is definitely a cheaper option. My kids hated it when I started Turbo Fire because I kept singing "Boom I got your boyfriend!" all the time. :bigsmile:

    I'm on week 2 of c25k. I didn't know there was one after that. What does B210K stand for? Bed to 10K? LOL

    I lost 56 lbs after having my son doing 10 minute trainer, hip hop abs, Power90 and the 30 day shredd and walking everyday. I slowly had to change my eating habits, add more healthy foods while dropping the not so good foods. I would recommend any of the beachbody at home videos, I think they are amazing!!! And if time is your problem as it was for me I highly recommend doing 10 minute trainer, you can do one 10 minute set or 3 in a day, but the best part is you don't have to do them all at the same time!!! One of the biggest things I have learnt in my weightloss journey is that 70% of weight loss is what and how you eat. Once I realized this and made come lifestyle changes I really started to see the lbs come off!!!! Hope this was helpful mommies, I tell everyone if I can do it, ANYone can! I never worked out a day in my life or cared about what I was eating until I doubled my size and had some eye openers!!! Good luck all and I love having other SAHM to chat with!!!!

    That's funny!! Its a catchy song, especially when Chalene sings. One day I will be able to sing while I am working out to TF. LOL!! :laugh:
