I've been doing bodyrock since Nov and Ive lost 21 pounds and over 12 inches. All you need is those 12 min to get relsults!! just give it your all and youll love it. Plus I havent run in probably more than 6 months and i ran the other day and found that my endurance has improved greatly just from the body rock workouts. I've also started eating clean since diet is 70 % of it. I hope you enjoy it!. Im a bodyrocker for life!

Hi there, I have been hearing a lot about bodyrock in the past few days and had a look at their website. I hope am not being silly asking this question, but I really was not able to figure out where to start. They seem to have a lot of intense workouts and I would love to do them, but since I am a beginner, how should I go about it. Any advice would be really appreciated

I've been bodyrocking since Jan 8, and I LOVE it. It totally transformed my body. I haven't really lose inches or weight, but I see definition in my abs and my butt is perkier. I have two preschoolers and work full time, so it's easier to fit in a 12 min workout.

This week, they started posting shorter video, and didn't really give modifications for beginner. I suggest and trying out the exercises as is, and tone it down as needed as you go . Like, knee push-ups or incline push-ups in place of regular push-ups, squat jump or squat (if you can't do the jump) for burpees. And you can start with low weights and work up to heavier weights, or start with bodyweight and go up. The thing about bodyrock is that you just push yourself to your max, so you can work at your fitness level. The January 30 day challenge is a good place to start. Those videos are the most thorough with modifications for different levels. Once you get through those, you will know how to mod the exercises in the newer videos.

Hi

Bodyrock is amazing - love it.

I would suggest you start with the fit test (search for it on their site). I then do this every 2 weeks to track my progress (am definitely getting fitter).

The thread has a link to an online interval timer (really useful if you don't have an actual one) and a list of all the equipment-free workouts on the site (easier to do the ones with on equipment if you're a beginner).

If you find it hard at first just keep going - anything can be modified (if you can't do a jumping burpee just do a stepping one, can't do a full press-up do them on your knees or against a wall etc). Loads of people on here love bodyrocking and love to help so if you're struggling with specific exercises then ask on her for modifications. I personally have taken all my favourite exercises and created my own 'suite' of circuits which range from 12-20 minutes so I can pick one up easier depending on how long I have.

Hey thanks for that. I checked out that link last night and found it quite handy, especially the list of workouts without equipment
Perhaps I will have a look (or try) through them over the coming days and prepare a 'suite' of my favorites too! I really want to tone up and keeping my fingers crossed that this helps!
