Help! I'm A Busy Mom Trying To Make Time To Exercise

We all know we should make time to exercise. So, why is it so hard?

Yesterday, I had the privilege to talk to a lot of people about exercise.  The #1 struggle people shared, especially moms, was even though they knew they should exercise they struggled to make time for exercise.

Setting aside time for ourselves is so difficult. We feel guilty. We feel selfish. We feel like we are neglecting our families, our friends, our jobs... our obligations. 


"We can't truly serve others unless our needs are met first."

That's a tough pill to swallow. Here is the best way to carve out time to exercise and some tips on how best to do it.

Viral Sensation- "Workout Bomb"

There is a new craze sweeping the streets.

The Workout Bomb! What is that you ask?

Think photo bomb with a positive purpose.

A workout bomb is when you surprise someone with positive encouragement during their workout.

A recent study by the University of New Mexico stated that 50% of people starting an exercise program will drop out within the first 6 months.

That's unacceptable.

Spectacular news! Positive reinforcement is the key for people continuing their exercise regimen. So.... now it's up to YOU!

It's time to be that positivity we all need.

Ideas for Workout Bombing

- Drive by a runner roll, down the window, shout encouragement
- Pump people up by referring to them as "Rock Stars"
- Walk around carrying a boom box blasting Eye of the Tiger
- Fist bumps, high fives (especially Full House style), and thumbs up are encouraged
- Give cyclists room to ride....that's all....workout bomb, done!
- Jump in and join them!
