Gym Workouts for Moms? Videos

Confused about the newest FYM Gym Based Workouts for Moms?

This week I launched a new and unique workout resource for Fit Yummy Mummy’s call FYM in the GYM. Since the release, I’ve received dozens of questions since this is do different than what a typical FYM workout plan has to offer.

To help, I made two videos.

Video One
In this video I explain exactly what the FYM in the GYM workout program is all about. I then share why I created such a workout program – since many were left scratching their heads…wondering why I did this – and who this workout program is best suited for.

Video Two
In this video I addresses the most common questions and concerns such as…

“How is this different from your other FYM workout programs?”

“Are these really only 15 minute workouts?”

“I don’t want DVDs. You can’t use these in the gym!”

“This looks like it’s only for those who lift heavy weights.”

“I’m confused by all the workout groupings…hip, knees, pulling – what does this mean?”

“I want a progressive workout plan with printable workout logs”

The most portable fat loss tool you will ever own!

To prove how versatile resistance bands can be for busy moms, for our trip to Disneyland, California I packed a single red band.

Try it out and feel it for yourself.

Single Leg Romanian Deadlift to Reverse Lunge: 6-8x each leg
Push Ups: 8-10
Split Squat with Rotation: 6-8x each leg
Band Pull Aparts: 10-15x

Complete Circuit 2-4 times based on your fitness level.

Bonus Finisher – Jump Squats

or

Perform for time after completing all rounds of your beach band circuit.
An example would be Tabata Jump Squats – 20 seconds of jump squats followed by 10 seconds of rest, repeat for 8 rounds – total of 4 minutes of work.
