You will probably be shocked to learn this. Moms are busy. I know, your mind is blown.
I am being serious though. Being a mom is really busy. If it weren’t for Grokker I would never fit in a workout. Let me tell you how my typical morning goes:
7:15AM – Zoey banging on her door yelling HELLO!! At the top of her lungs.
7:27 – I roll out of bed and go get her, I try and go back to sleep while she plays (I was up till 2am working), but only in my dreams would that happen
7:28 – Zoey informs me she is ‘poopy’
7:29 – Zoey informs me that she is ‘huggy’ (hungry)
7:31 – Change diaper
7:33 – Zoey yells at me while I make her food, once breakfast is ready she takes one bite and decides she wants something else.
7:40 – Make breakfast number 2 for Zoey
7:50 – I set Zoey up with toys and start working
8:50 – I get in an hour of work before Zoey needs me to bring her to the potty – and then for the next hour she needs to go potty every ten minutes or so.
10:00 – Clean up the hurricane that happened while I was working
10:30 – Realize I am still in my pjs and haven’t eaten breakfast
This continues on and on. I love it and would not have it any other way. Zoey is my angel and I love my work. I will admit though, I never have time to get out the door to the gym. Since Kris studies full time I cannot leave Zoey with him during the day unless it is during her nap, but nap time is gold for me to accomplish other tasks as well. I never can afford to leave the house and spend her entire nap on one thing on my to-do list.
Thats why Grokker is my life saver, I can do a workout in the comfort of my own living room and finish with enough time to finish a few other things. Grokker has almost every type of workout video you could need, cardio, abs, weight training, etc., but my exercise of choice is yoga. It calms me, it relaxes me, it rejuvenates my mind and body, and the strain placed on my body is minimal. After giving birth my joints respond much better to low impact workouts like a gentle yoga routine. Yoga is a great post-natal exercise in my opinion. I honestly think every mom could use some yoga in their life during a long, busy, stressful day.
Grokker brings every yoga instructional video you could ever need to one place, there are hundreds to choose from and they have options for every level of experience. They also have every other fitness video you could need if you aren’t into yoga. Grokker brings the gym into your home. It allows you to get an amazing workout without the costly fees of a gym membership, paying a babysitter and the extra time it takes to travel.
You can also try it before you buy it, there is no wondering whether it will be the right program for you or not. Grokker has generously shared the Ab Sculpting Yoga workout video at the bottom of this post with me and you are all welcome to watch it as many times as you want! On top of that every free membership comes with two free videos of your choice per month.
If that isn’t enough to convince you to give Grokker a try I also worked out a special deal with them and got you guys a discount code to receive unlimited videos for 3 months at only $5 a month! Just select the monthly membership when you upgrade and then type RACHAEL into the discount code field.
