20 minute workout
With the new year comes a new list of resolutions. On the top of mine and probably many others is to cram a workout (at least 3x a week) into my busy schedule. Now, I have to be honest and preface that I have never, ever worked out. I am one of those naturally uncoordinated people. I can’t learn a dance routine or play a sport by just watching it or trying it once or twice, for some reason my body doesn’t move in that way. Regardless, any workout that I take on has to overcome 2 obstacles:
1. It can’t require too much coordination. No crazy dance moves (at least not yet)
2. It can’t take longer than 20 minutes.
I have found the perfect solution as seen on Oprah (well, not by me, but a girlfriend sent me the link to the workout she saw on Oprah): the Joel Harper 20 minute workout. I will have to vary it, so I don’t get bored, but for now this is perfect for my schedule. Let me know what you think!

This workout is great for a busy new mom and mompreneur! While my daughter naps I sneak this workout in. I feel awesome cause I’m fulfilling my resolution and doing a little something for myself (which of course is a rare treat these days). Great posts!!
