The weather has been on the cold side, the husband out of town, and children's schedules unpredictable, translating into little exercise time for mom. In an act of desperation for some of those sweet all-natural endorphins I decided to try a Jillian Michael's 30 day shred workout.
The 20 minute workout wasn't that bad (read:I was nearly in tears), but what I really wasn't prepared for was the morning after. No wonder Jillian can promise rapid results, you're so sore the next day it's a struggle to make it to the kitchen. Bend down to grab the box of cereal you wanted to eat for breakfast? I don't think so! I'll stick with the bananas at arms reach on the counter. The video should contain an extra warning for mothers of young children. Caution: your two-year-old will be faster than you the day following this workout, and forget about bending down to pick anything (children, toys or bits of dinner) off the floor for at least three days.
Here's to a happy Friday in shuffle mode. Cheers!
