About

Workout mommy is a blog about health and fitness for moms. Being a mom requires that you work 24/7 for someone other than yourself, so finding time to exercise and stay healthy is a challenge. I’m here to help you with that challenge and to keep you motivated and on task.

It CAN be done!

Who is workout mommy?

My name is Lisa and in my life before kids, I was a personal trainer, group fitness instructor, marathon runner, and overall fitness junkie. I woke up early to workout and I stayed up late to workout. I didn’t think much would change when I had children, so clearly I had absolutely NO IDEA what being a mommy was like!

Now, I am a mom of FOUR little boys and I struggle with finding the time each day to commit to my fitness and health goals.

It is a struggle, I am not going to lie, but it is one that is worth it.

My goal with this blog is to provide motivation, inspiration, and ideas on how to fit in exercise, fitness, and health in your busy  day. After all, a fit mommy is a happy mommy!  (and for me, it also helps keep my sanity in check!)

I’m a certified personal trainer with NASMHKC with Dragon Door, and also hold Group Fitness certification with AFAA.

Please join me in the daily challenge to become fit, healthy, and happy!

Remember gang:  Never underestimate the power of a workout!

GREAT site. I love staying motivated and entertained with a swipe of the keyboard. Thanks for all the helpful hints and for the inspiring stories of other moms who have accomplished their workout goals.

Just found this site & it’s exactly what I’m looking for! As a recent stay @ home mom of 2 I’m struggling with weight loss. My baby is now 6mths old & I still look like I’m 6mths prego! :-O
I’ve tried DVD’s but 2day I’m thinking I may need 2 leave my home 4 the workouts, I’m noticing that I can’t do a whole video bc I either have the baby crying for attn or my toddler requesting something!

My goal this summer is to run a 5k so I really need to start getting active ASAP!
thanks

I just had surgery for my Hallux Rigidus (1 month post op) and I was looking for someone who posted about their experience. I am wondering where I should be at one month? I was (am/will be again soon I hope) a runner and was wondering when you were able to take your first run, even a little 3 miler would be awesome to look forward to. I am just nervous I made a mistake, but honestly where I was before surgery I kind of thought, could be worse then this? I am feeling quite a bit of pain in the pad under my big toe and along the bottom of my big toe when I push the toe forward. DId you experience this and if so, for how long after surgery?

Hello,

My name is Layla and I recently began working with a national sandals brand that is attempting to increase their online presence.

I came across your site (dietgirl.org) while looking for websites where I’d be able advertise my new client, and I am very interested in doing so here.

At this time I am open to a variety of different options for advertising. I am particularly interested in sponsored posts, but would love to hear what else is available. Please get back to me with some options and rate information, I’d really appreciate that. Thanks so much! I look forward to hearing back from you!

Sincerely,

Layla Long
