Bridezilla Day 2
Groomzilla Day 1
Tonight I razzed Groomzilla into joining me for my self boot camp. I did it for the first time over the weekend and wow did it kick my butt. Tonight I saw someone else experience that pain, yes Groomzilla.
We pushed aside the coffee table in the living room, cranked up the tunes on the music channels on the TV, and high kicked into our first set of jumping jacks. Our only real challenge was keeping our 50 pound Jack Russell Terrier look alike dog from thinking that we were playing with him while we were down on the floor cranking out sit ups and plank holds.
Groomzilla made it through his first night of boot camp and I am slightly glad he struggled through as he had talked a big game up until today. I hope boot camp is something we can stick with as with most of my other fitness routines and healthy new years resolutions in the past they have quickly fallen to the waste side. Groomzilla and I tend to be more motivated when we compete for something or set a goal for a reward, for instance, a nice dinner out if we complete workouts 3 times a week at the gym for the whole month. We have not set a competition yet but I sense one closely on the horizon.
What are some of your healthy fitness routines that you can recommend to try?

lol competitio will be good! i have started working out/getting in shape for the 3 weddings i am in this year.
PS: for blog growing, i would say join twitter, keep commenting on new blogs because people will see yours/comment back, and maybe do a giveaway to entice readers to follow you? hope this helps :)
With a wedding the approaching you will find will power you never thought you had (or will never have again) to be healthy and workout…especially when you hit the 4 month mark.
I need to do something. I gained 5 pounds over the holidays and lost all my energy. Of course it is about 20 degrees here most of the time too so walking is not much fun. Cooper (our dog)and I need to get in shape. On the subject of your blog, get a twitter account and ask your facebook friends to follow. I just opened one for Moon River Pearls. Love you, mom
What type of boot camp do you do? Are you following pre-determined workouts or just going with the flow? I am finding trying to beat your previous time/reps is GREAT motivation. Part of our home training is 60 seconds of sit-ups and we are trying to do more or last longer in plank or do the run around the block quicker :-)
Hi Sarah, we start with a five min warm up of walking around the block or taking the dog out, then 30 minutes of circut training, we have started with three sets of 20. Jumpking jacks, tri dips, mountain climbers, squats, walking lunges, bicycle, crunches, pushups etc. We will increase as it gets easier!
Haha, that's cute. I wish Daniel and I were better at exercising together.
Get the "Just Dance" for your Wii. The "Dance Masters" on X-Box Kinects is fun and quite a workout :D
