I know! Tracy must be made of pure muscle because she never grunts, or crys, or sweats, or rolls over and howls. And she can even talk while doing the 'piking series'. I still can't even breath during that piking series. And seriously? The leg part? I hate the leg part. GOD! I know!

It was only 20 minutes (Yes! 20 min! I can totally work out for 20 minutes! Bring it!) and I was dying by the end. With my 3 lb weights. It's only been 4 months since I gave birth, but I am clearly out of shape. Like, the strength of a 4 year old. Go me. I think I'll wait to try these DVD's...

I had to move a shopping cart, some Dr. Seuss books and a monkey out of the way in order to do my exercise DVD last night. I feel you!

I moved all the toys. I followed GP's advice (at the end of the DVD)... "my kids were crawling around..." I have twin boys. They had me surrounded about five minutes in and I knew I was in trouble but I persisted (GP did this with her kids crawling around - dammit so will I). They silently planned their attack and before I knew it one laid, yes LAID, on my head (so much for crunches) and the other pushed his entire body weight (35 lbs) through his meaty little hands into my already distressed abs (SO MUCH FOR CRUNCHES). I laid there lifeless until they were satisfied and moved on to their next kill. Tracy and I have since met in the night time, after the sweet baby boys are in bed. I'm doing this.

Jillian Michaels - She seems like a very angry personal trainer. Is she as bad on her DVDs as I've seen her on TV? (Oh crap, my secret's out, I've watched some of the Biggest Loser episodes.) Last time I tried an exercise DVD, it involved a resistance band. My right shoulder resisted so much that it tore its rotator cuff. Too much too quickly, they said at the doctor's office.

I came across this post after completing my first post-natal Tracy Anderson session. I second your sentiments. I had a baby 6 weeks ago and I was feeling pretty good about myself upon the completion of the first abs session. From the pikes on, I laughed (and cried) my way through the video and then crawled my poor body straight into bed, where I stayed motionless for the next hour. Loved your post! Oh my!

I've given up trying to do a real work out at this point. I've just been puting on music, picking up my 14 mont old (25 pounds) and dancing. We both enjoy it and it's a great work out. I do still have problems finding space among the toys to dance though. Lol! I’ve given up trying to do a real work out at this point.
