    Well, I’m not sure how many of those exercises I can do in a minute, but I know a minute sounds much more appealing than an hour or so at the gym.

    Oh, I guess you can’t swap one for the other… rats.

    Ahhh…. the one-minute thing - it feels like Boot Camp over here. ;) It is amazing though how many you can do… and how much you can improve if you keep doing the one-minute challenges. ;)

    Ha! “You can do anything for one minute, yes?” is what I ask myself when I’m doing interval. And the answer is always yes. :)

    Great idea!

    Great idea! When you break things down into one-minute sessions it sure makes everything seem much more doable.

  13. Metroknow Says:

    Definitely a good idea - I do crunches on the edge of my bed this way in the mornings. I haven’t been timing it, but it’s that “hey I could do this really fast” idea. This is even better. Thanks to Mark Salinas for pointing me to your post -

  14. Susan Says:

    Yes, you sure can do anything for one minute! Good motivation to keep on exercising.
    I did bent-knee push-ups; my arms needed it. :)

    You are right about one minute. I nuke my water for tea, and do a couple “rounds” of yoga.

    The minute is my favorite componement of time. LOL. Without The Minute, I would be out of shape.

    About Me

      In my life before kids, I was a personal fitness trainer and self proclaimed fitness junkie. I loved the 5am workouts and evening strength training sessions. Now that I'm a mom, my life is filled with 5am feedings and piles of laundry. I've let my fitness slip and this blog will hopefully provide motivation to help myself (and YOU!) get back in shape. I want to be fit, be healthy, and be happy! No more excuses....it's time to workout mommy!

    Be nice!
