Hey can I join? Just started 6 days of cardio, Sunday I ran for an hour, Monday I did a cardio dvd ( it was warm up 20 mins set, 16 min set and 17 min set with warm down) does that qualify as an hour? I walked for an hour today, good exercising for pink sway? Many thanks

Welcome girlie you will have a lot of giggles in here. I have been including my warm up with in my hour because it's all about getting the heart rate raised for an hour and during the warm up up start getting your heart rate up. Could you maybe leave the cool down until after the hour is up. Because that is bringing your heart rate down again? Sounds like your off to a great start though!

How are you doing, Glittermouse? I also sometimes feel guilty on my boys for focusing too much on swaying. My boys must think I am a cardio-addict. In the weekends I always dress in running clocthes first thing in the morning to do the cardio outside or in the house at the floor while they play or watch iPad. Several days a week I get up at 5.15 and do the cardio first thing before they wake up. If you have the energy and are able to go early to bed I can recommend you to get up with sunrise and do your cardio at this time, because then you'll have the day and afternoons together with your boys. I can really recommend the Bipasha Basu full body routine workout-video you can look up at Youtube and continue with 30 min. fast walk outside. I think this will be gentle on your legs. Hope you are able to get back to the cardio soon.

As my eldest is 11 (and has put on a bit of weight) I used to get him involved too when he was in school. Or I'd do my excuse by walking them to the park! My 2 older boys would ask if they could eat the same as me because it looked so nice

Hi and welcome girlie please! What's your story? Do you have children already?

I'm about to go to the gym; was meant to be doing some hill sprints with a friend this morning but she bailed and as I ran 12.5km last night, I figured I'd have a rest day from running and do some sprint training tomorrow instead...x

What a lovely, kind reply dreamsister thank you and you too beautifulrainbow x You ladies are all so lovely and thoughtful and have offered me some really great ideas. My boys are only 3 and 4 years old so I do find it tricky to do anything for me really when I'm with them and especially to keep it going for an hour! They are still little and very needy!! I am up already at 5.30 am with my boys-they are very early risers and are frequently up through the night. Think this is also why its all taking its toll. Apart from the eldest being at school, I have the youngest for sometime during the day and then I work half the week too.

Having said all of that, I'm gonna give your ideas a go. I might try exercising straight after school when they're both tired from the day and happy to watch telly/ipad. I know I'll be mithered but I will try to move briskly whilst tending to their every whim!

I really fancy that 'Bipasha Basu', really sounds up my street. Maybe they'll join in with me? Will look into it later xxx

Hi girlieplease, it's great that you joined us! This is a very active, friendly group, you'll love it here! Agree with beautifulrainbow, you've made a great start to your sway. Also second her advice on doing the cool down after the 60 mins. Now I just need to get my own self in gear and actually do the cool down!!

[Dreamsister]

Yes, GlitterMouse, try to get your boys to dance with you. That sounds awesome. My youngest (5) is sometimes doing a little bit with me. The other two (8 and 9) teases me and calls it the sexy video because the dancers in the video dresses in hotpants and bra... I do it in the room where my nabours can't see.... Otherwise they must think I am in a 40-something mid life crisis running around in fittness clothes and doing sexy movements ha ha.
With two toddlers in the home you must be busy. I work almost full time five days a week, so fitting in one hour cardio almost on daily basis is also really a huge challenge. Happy that we got each other here on this forum to keep up motivation and support when there is no one else to talk to about swaying.

[GlitterMouse]

Ha ha! Love the 40 something mid life crisis comment! It will be interesting to hear my boys' reaction to the bras and hot pants! Hopefully they'll join in for a bit, get bored and move onto something else!

Everyone on here is so amazing. Getting up for workouts and working full time whilst having three kids is a massive effort! Very, very impressive!

Will keep you posted on how it goes.

Hope your legs get better soon glittermouse
