The One That Got Away Workout

Posted by Frederick | In All Videos, All Workouts, Featured Articles, Today's Workout

Hi BodyRockers,

Today’s workout is bodyweight only, and apart from the interval timer you don’t need any equipment to do it. This whole workout, including the bonus at the end takes just 7 minutes. If you have been BodyRocking with us for a while, you will know that we are always demanding that you push at your absolute max effort. This is your personal 100% – it’s different for each of us, and it’s also a place where we rarely get to hang out, because let’s be honest its quite a jump outside of our normal comfort zone. In whatever you are doing it’s honestly quite rare to say you gave it your full 100% – but BodyRocking demands it. We look for it in each other and savour the glow of touching that space of excellence within ourselves when we hit it. Damn right :) If you give these workouts your 100% – no matter what fitness level you are at, you will see the results – they will come up and smack you along side the head when you look in your mirror so get ready for it :) BodyRockers don’t plod through life or exercise – we ROCK IT for real – and it shows.

Enjoy your training!

Workout Breakdown

Time: 7 minsWorkout Type: 4 Minute Interval & BonusExercises: 5

Mountain Climbers ???
Split Lunges???
Plank Butt Squeeze???
Plank50secs
Reptile Pushups ???

Get your gear for this workout here:

There are two parts to this workout. The first part is a 4 Minute Tabata style interval. Set your interval timer for 8 rounds of 20/10. The 20 seconds is your work interval and you will be pushing the whole 20 seconds at your absolute max effort. Use the 10 seconds to get set and into position for the next round. At the end of the 4 minutes you should be toast. If you feel like this was a “warm up” then guess what – you didn’t push to your max. Bad, bad BodyRocker!!!! :) Move back and forth between the two exercises until your timer beeps and releases you from the sweet, sweet torture.

The “bonus” is a 3 minute interval. Re-set your timer for 3 rounds of 50/10. You guessed it – the 50 second interval is your max effort time. Move between the exercises and keep in mind that this whole workout from top to bottom including the bonus is just 7 minutes long. Honestly a proper shower takes longer – even if you skip the conditioner :) If you can’t handle the reptile pushups then blast away some regular pushups. If you are a beginner crack off some pushups from your knees. Make this workout work for you!

Wow! Another killer workout. I was crying in pain on the last round. I thought my core was strong! More work to do. Thanks for including some bodyweight only stuff.

Workouts like this leave even LESS room for the “I don’t have time” excuse. Here’s an article I just saw that nicely points out where wasted time can be reallocated for the gym http://shine.yahoo.com/healthy-living/15-ways-15-minutes-exercise-every-day-163300444.html

okay well this is totally confusing to me… I noticed that sean and kyla did the MC differently more like mountain runners but that sean nopw said that you MUSTN’T get your butt up like zuzana always did, especially with leaping MC is really confusing me… I always thought intensity increses as follows: mountain runner< mountain climber < leaping mountain climber. and now we are supposed to do it the way with least impact?? :/ please help me out!
- Carrie
  
  I’m a bit confused too – in the last part of the workout there are three exercises – plank butt lift, plank and reptiles, but in the video I only saw plank butt lift then reptiles… (I don’t have sound on my computer, which may not help!) Can anyone help?

    plank butt lift, then reptiles, then plank butt lift again!

    - Christie
      
      Hmm yea that’s what they do, but the workout breakdown says: Plank butt squeeze, plank 50sec, reptile pushups. Maybe they forgot about the plank and just alternated exercised like the first part of the workout.
- Anonymous
  
  I think sean was just trying to say that your butt was not supposed to be bouncing up and down, you can keep your front foot up or touch them down, but keep your butt steady, it shouldn’t be going up and down 10 inches. it was supposed to be an ab exercise when leaping you are changing the muscles worked. I know I never felt them in my abs, just in my shoulders and my legs, kind of like pike press
- GoustiFruit
  
  I’m confused as well, Zuzana always made them differently, with little jumps for climbers and higher jumps for leaping climbers !? Those mountain “runners” don’t look as challenging, am I wrong ?

  I’m with you jojoherz. Looked for a past WO that had a explanation of the Mountain climber. In the WO from 11/02/2011 (http://www.bodyrock.tv/2011/11/02/im-sexy-and-i-know-it-workout/) Zuzka shows how to do it, and it’s the way Sean said NOT to do it. Soooo… I think I’ll go with Zuzka. Nothing personal Sean!
  
  Btw, I miss seeing you Zuzka!! I hope you’re well! Your cheerfulness and sweet sincerity help make Bodyrocking even better.
- Ash
  
  After a while didn’t do it the way Zuzana did because I did not feel the burn the way I do the other way.
Brian

The old “I don’t have time” excuse. Very lame. People who say that usually spend whole evenings in front of the TV, watching brain-rotting tripe which does nothing to enhance their lives.

OK home from work and you posted this! It was so short I just had to do it before I go to bed! On my schedule tomorrow if I had time was 6 min workout so now I’ve finished 7 min so if I don’t have time later I’m good! Excellent! and it was a little tuffy!

jump lunges – 11, 10, 10, 11

bonus
plank butt squeeze – 20

this was really good on abs! I have been doing my mountain climbers like kyla did for a while because I feel them more in my abs this way, the jump lunges were only jumps in first round, then I stepped and went deep after that – same scores! ha! managed to keep doing butt squeezes all the way through – hard! and my reptiles are only a small dip, not awesome ones like kyla did!

sean, you really suffered tonight! were you guys hung over? kyla seemed a little quiet? subdued? anyhow, great workout! and I’m sure you’ll hear a lot about those pink shoes!

I felt like throwing up after 5 rounds of the mountain climbers and 4 rounds of the split lunges. Then I did only 2 rounds of the plank butt squeezes and from the knee push ups. So I stopped there, seeing as I have been irregular with my workouts and been eating improperly. My body is going to have to catch up. Thanks for the workout. Do you still check the comments? Just curious who does-Freddie or Zuzanna? What is Zuzanna up to lately? I haven’t seen her in awhile. Hope you guys are doing well. Have a great day.

    I’m getting really confused when they suddenly do exercises differently (or change their names). and I think mountain climbers are much easier like sean and kyla did them.
    just wanted to mention that.
    
    yeah, I’m a bit fed up with the inaccuracies here in the last few weeks. I know I don’t pay anything for the workout tutorials, but they earn money with every click on their videos and this makes me really lose my motivation. just think it would be easy to take care of those things without much effort…
Kris Andersson

Huh, Killer? I DID PUSH MAX. EFFORT, but had to do the whole workout twice (14 min.) to be sweaty and out of breath. But I liked the workout, cause MC’s are one of my faves.
Julia

Hi Sara,

I’d recommend trying each and seeing which one leaves you feeling better. Some people find that they can’t sleep at night if they exercise in the evening while others find that the work out poops them out for a better night’s sleep. The same applies for the morning.

You also might want to consider whether you like exercising on an empty stomach or having eaten an hour or two beforehand, because it might influence when you want to exercise (e.g. do you have 2 hours to kill in the morning to wait for food to digest if you eat beforehand?). Some people find that having food makes them naseous and/or that they can push harder fasted while others get an energy boost from a small meal.

Don’t forget to also consider what will keep you consistent. I tend to find that I’m less likely to put off the work out if I do it in the morning. Things just seem to come up in the evening.

It’s all about you, here, so I’d figure out what works best for you :) Good Luck!!
Sfroehlich76

As a certified trainer I tell my clients or bootcamp participants to not bounce…this puts alot of extra stress on your lower back and shoulders and the moountain climber already does this.
MariaBjørgJepsen

I’ll crunch this one tomorrow morning :) So nice hearing (and seeing) that you guys can also enjoy a little glass or two and hit the dance floor, wohoooo. Gotta love it!!! Freddy: amazing photo and colour composition on the beautiful picture of Kyla!
Love, Maria :)

Seems like a lot of negative comments today. I just want to say how much I appreciate the website in any capacity. It’s really cold in Calgary right now and I love being able to train so hard inside my house. Keep up the great workouts!!

really good one… today I needed a short one. I also like watching you guys working out together.
My scores:

Jump (split) lunges – 18, 19, 19, 19

Plank butt squeeze – 33

Plank butt squeeze – 27

And my butt was really hurting. Great workout similar to Zuzkas older ones. I like it a lot!

I am really, really enjoying the workouts with Kyla, she is awesome.
Soraia

I am a begginer and I really want to change my shape! do you think that with a daily workout of 9 ou 10 min I can do it? Cause your workouts are really short, are they enough to change our shapes or we should do it more than once a day?
- JessJN
  
  Before BR, I used to do 1-1.5 hour weight lifting days 3-4 times a week, & ran or biked 30-60 min, 3-4 times a week. I was really bored with that, but didn’t know what else to do. I started BR in Feb, & in March stopped going to the gym. I was more sore after these short workouts than any of my weight routines. I was also shocked how weak I was, considering how often I worked out.
  
  Now, 9+ months later, I am stronger & have increased muscle tone, without doing any bicep curls, chest presses, or leg presses. I was skeptical that these workouts would keep me in good cardio shape. I usually add 4-20 min of jump roping after my workout, or I’ll walk/run if my legs are too tired. What I’ve noticed is that if I decide to go for a run, even after not running for months, I am able to run 3+ miles without feeling tired or “off.” Before BR, if I hadn’t run for a while, I struggled with a run after a long break.
  
  Now, I do a BR workout 5-7 days a week. I always warm up (~5min) & cool down(~6-12 min), & most days add some jump roping/skipping. I do the skipping in intervals of 10 sec rest/20 sec work, 4, 5, or 6 min at a time for anywhere from 4-20 minutes. All together, I rarely only workout 12 min, but the time I spend is very effective…much moreso than what I used to do. You don’t have to do all of that to get a good workout, but make sure you warm up & cool down so that you don’t hurt yourself, & you’ll be less sore if you strech after the workout.
  
  warm ups from this site: http://www.bodyrock.tv/category/daily-workouts/warm-up-daily-workouts/
  cool downs: http://www.bodyrock.tv/category/daily-workouts/stretching-daily-workouts/
  
  Hope that helps.

Today i did a workout inspired in Try this at home Workout. It was like this:

P#1: 4 rounds 50/10
-Santana Plank: 22-23
-Diagonal plank jumps: 39-40 (2 jumps = 1, one rep when i landed in a front plank)

P#2: Sumo squat step up challenge:
-100 each leg in 18:30 min. Dunno why it took me so long, i never stopped and my pace was pretty fast. Legs didnt burn like i thought they would.

P#3: 4 rounds 40/20
-Reptile Plank: in the middle of the second round i switched to diagonal knee tucks
-Mountain Runners
This part made me sweat soooo much!

then i did 100 high knees, 100 side to side jumps, 100 skips, with my jump rope.
:D

Since this was such a short workout I thought I’d beef it up a bit plus make sure I was really warmed up so I could go into it hard. So I started with a 52 minute hill and trail run and followed immediately with the workout.
mt climbs: 54-55-54-55
split jump : 21-21-22-23
butt squeeze::42-36
reptile push ups: 17
Then cooled down with a paddleboard session. Breakfast!!!
- Mmghia
  
  And all before breakfast?? if this were me I’d have to eat breakfast for lunch :) Sounds like you had an awesome morning just like your scores!! Whats ‘paddleboard’ by the way?
  - http://www.janetspreiter.com Janet
    
    It was an awesome morning and it fired me up for the day once I ate breakfast, that is!) Paddleboarding is when you stand up and paddle your surfboard with a long paddle. I use mine primarily to catch waves and surf. I live on the beach so it’s a great way to check the morning surf and cool down.

I was thinking the exact same thing. I still do my burpee for Erin after every workout though.

Short but intense. But short.

Mountain climber: 38 – 38 – 38 – 38 (it was a mix of climbers and runners, I was trying to figure out which was the hardest, I think climbers are, and they are slower too: if I’d only do climbers, my score would be lower, if I’d do only runners, it would be higher)
Jump lunge: 20 – 19 – 19 – 19

Bonus (who wouldn’t do a bonus ???)
Plank w/ Butt Squeeze: 32 – 29
Reptile PU: 26
I just couldn’t hold the plank during the 10s though, I needed to relax my arms !

Im super excited to do this workout tomorrow! Especially cuz it’s only 7 mins and I know i’ll be sweating like crazy but feel so good afterwards! I just want to say, you guys, Sean, Kyla, Freddy and Jes are GREAT! Loving the duo workout like this one!! But I miss Zuzzana too :(, I miss seeing her in (every) workout. A christmas present for me would be seeing All 5 of you doing workout all together!!!!!

I MISS ZUZANA!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hm..okay, I don’t really know how else to say it, so I’ll just say it : is it really necessary to have these pictures with “explicit” positions for the workout videos ? I guess the one on this workout is not as “explicit” as the previous workout with Kyla, but still…
I never liked it when Zuzana did that either. Yes, the human body can be really beautiful and both Zuzana and Kyla are great looking women but I am absolutely sure you can take nice, even sexy pictures that don’t have to be in such positions with bottoms up and open legs, that put the crotch area in the center of the picture . Why does it have to be so sexual ? The workouts and the videos are nothing like that, so why does that picture represent it ?
It’s just that I think those front pictures of each post misrepresent what the whole message is about and what this website is about, which in my opinion is being active and healthy. Yeah, sure, looking sexy is a wonderful and desired result, but it could be done in a more decent fashion. There are infinite postures and angles to portray one’s beauty. And actually, I believe a snap shot taken from the real workout video would represent it the best.
Just my opinion…

  I agree with this comment. I’m a Doctor and would love to recommend this site to my patients who want to lose weight and get in shape, I am, however, reluctant to do this due to the sexualised nature of some of the images. I’m concerned they may get a bad impression of me by association . I hope this comment is taken in the right spirit by Freddie and the gang, I don’t want to cause any bad feelings, just share some thoughts on the presentation.

    I always hesitated to show this site to my friends but didn’t really know why – I just had a strange feeling about it. Thanks for pointing that out!
  - Anonymous
    
    Though I initially had the same feeling about that, I stopped worrying about it. I absolutely don’t like when women are represented/present themselves like that, it was the same thing with Zuz. People were saying that they didn’t like the way she is presented, but that didn’t change a thing. For myself, the stupid comments on youtube and facebook just show that those pictures attract people we don’t want here, but they choose to be attracting them because even those mean recognition, or attention. Any press is good press, so to speak.
    So, I just wanted to say I’m 100% with you, but you can’t force someone to be representing him-/herself the way you want, so I stopped worrying about that, especially when all the rest about Bodyrock is actually nice and cool and positive.

      I’m not trying to force anyone to do anything. I have been a bodyrocker for 3 years and have never had an exercise regime that was so effective or so addictive(and I have been exercising regularly for over 30 years). Exercise in the past has been a chore, something I did because I felt I had to to keep in shape and “practice what I preach” so to speak. I no longer feel this way and wish something like this was around when I was a teenager. Now when I don’t exercise on the odd day here and there it feels really strange, almost as if I am missing out on something.
      
      I am just relating the fact that I would like to recommend this site professionally but the presentation prevents me from doing so.

  I agree. I do think that it detracts from the real purpose of Bodyrocking.

  please don’t politically-correct this site…the pix are not rude at all, they are inspiring..leave them as is please.

  I agree with this comment as well.

  I know why they do it… when ppl look on youtube to look up fitness they are more likely to click on the picture of the sexy person over the one that isn’t. It is really about numbers of clicks on the site, the more hits on youtube the more commercials they put in the video and the more kick backs you get. Which is necessary when this is your job and it is free to the community … the money has to come from somewhere!

  I think that all of these responses are prudish. I dont see anything wrong with the photos being “sexy” I dont think it promotes anything inappropriate, as is being implied. I think that people who are concerned about this have some kind of hangups about sexuality, and that is just not cool.
  
  btw, its not my intention to offend. but there are probably just as many people that think the way i do as there are of you guys.

Why have you changed the name of jump lunges? I mean really, is there a reason for it? I don’t like it honestly, I just see no reason for it.
- Anonymous
  
  well….I didn’t understand either, so I just call them jump lunges anyway
- Anonymous
  
  Likely Zuzka called it one way and they call it something else. Since the change, we dont know who is designing the workouts. (Sean, Kyla, Jess?) If you are used to calling it something different I would keep doing it that way for simplicity.
  - Anonymous
    
    But that was my real worry, they said that Zuz would still be creating all the workouts, but I am becoming more sure that she isn’t anymore. I could tell when Sean was creating them, and now I think it is Kyla. They are making Kyla more involved than even Jess. So not sure what to think at the moment.
http://ofdreamsandseams.blogspot.com/ Katja

Good One!!! Haha, Kyla and Sean, you guys look so tired! It was just the best seeing you this way – and working out anyway…. because – well – I partied a little bit yesterday myself. I was SO glad this was a short one, but somehow it was not any easier than other workouts…

By the way people, I feel like I need to give some positive input here. Has anybody noticed and commented that they actually DID totally take “our” input and wishes and posted a no-equipment workout today? I mean please, all the criticism is really getting a little bit out of hand here. While I agree on some issues – how sexy do pictures have to be (but that is not a new issue, just the first time people are really voicing it…), wanting more no-weights exercises to make sure our muscles don’t get bulky (and they listened to us!), missing Zuska – well, there is also so much good stuff these four people are bringing us!!! You can choose to concentrate on all that good stuff, or you can concentrate on the negative. It’s your choice, but if you are a true bodyrocker, you know what your choice should be.

Thank you so much for this site!!!

All the best to you! Yes, it is totally possible that you feel better after 14 days already! I started bodyrocking over a year ago and haven’t stopped.

Ah, the celebrity lifestyle… being able to go out and tipsy one’s self on weekday nights. You sure that’s a good example to set when you’re presenting yourselves as fitness gurus? Moderation in all things, eh? :p And I agree with “WorkItOutYourself” when it comes to the porn-ish poses… A woman can be beautiful without being objectified. We -are- here for fitness, after all… Yes?

Wow. That was hard.

Modded for Super Beginner with sore foot.
Part one was Mountain climbers and reverse lunges. No jumping for me.
Part two, I could not balance on one foot to do the butt squeeze, so I did them from my knees.
It is really hard to hold a plank for 50 seconds. Put my knees down a couple times.
The only thing I counted reps for was the push ups. Done from my knees and managed 14.

What you guys say is very true. I love the workouts and recommend the site all the time. The most recent time was to a doctor/customer and his first comments were about the pictures. Things can be sexy and tasteful at the same time.

Keep up the great work with the site and all these fantastic workouts! I love you guys and the site. Tell Zuzanna she should do a guest spot for a work out once in a while. We miss her!

with love, Jess

This was great, and perfect for a friday… 7 minutes rock on!

Honestly my only worry is that I know Zuzka was creating the workouts before, I wonder if she still is with the name changes of the exercises and all. I just don’t want them to be purposely fading her out. I am scared that one day I will come back and her pictures will no longer be along the sides of the site. I don’t want to lose Freddy or Zuzka, but I don’t want to have Zuz gone forever either.
- sselcann
  
  that s how i feel as well. jump lunges became split lunges, mountain climbers changed form and so on. it just feels awkward. i hope zuzana and freddie can get over their problems and manage the site together as they did before, eventhough they are not together anymore. it is probably difficult when zuzana lives in another country though but we love them both. so no offense.

lol no then they would probably get away as quickly as possible, considering people would be disgusted… so really there will always be one complainer.

I totally agree with this short intense workout…would have loved to do it but I’m working on balancing out my rotator cuff muscles and I could just tell that the second part would be too much for my left shoulder. So instead of grabbing another exercise out of the air, I decided to run with Sexiest Abs Workout, http://www.bodyrock.tv/2010/08/03/sexiest-abs-workout/

By the looks of it, I was the last one to post scores from that workout, from a month ago.
It can be easily converted into a bodyweight only workout.
Peter Nurman

Did both the Squat step-ups and this current exercise but before I post on another comment….
It’s all about image and marketing and a certain image is maintained. Complaining about this is about as bad as complaining about how McDonald’s, Pepsi, Microsoft, etc… market their product and it is their product. I heard on the radio as well as those in marketing classes that the colors that restaurants use is for a reason. On the Discovery channel a few years ago they’ve actually done studies on colors and which make people more hungry. The result I think was that softer colors were more psychologically appeasing compared to brighter colors. In malls and clothing departments…music is a factor. The more soothing the music is the more the customer feels the more likely they are to shop longer. In terms of fitness sexuality sells and it’s society’s influence. An example of some of the products that is a joke is called the Spin Gym. This piece of crap is nothing more than a over-priced yo-yo you can buy at a 99c store which is selling for $20 and they were showing these fit people doing them…sorry to tell you guys, those fit people did not get that way using that product. The spend time in the gym doing weight training to get that body as well as eating the right.

BodyRock is no different. People want results and tailoring to human sexuality is the way marketing goes. You wouldn’t want to see an overweight person doing this(heck this would literally kill them because they won’t have the conditioning if they saw some of the times posted). In a world where people want instant results they want to see what the out come will be. We’re a society of “now now now” and “If you want to look sexy buy our product.” It takes time to get the results. For personal training (not H.I.T. ) it takes about 6 months before you start seeing visible results….with H.I.T. I was in the military(I posted this in another post) but when I got out in 2005 I weighed 190# and 20% BF. I took me a year to drop down 10# to 180# 18% BF because of my metabolism and diet and age and this was by myself. Even through H.I.T. I was hitting a wall in my workouts on my 4 to 5th month when I was starting and when that happens you need to change your workouts and cut your calories.

It takes time and I’m sure most of you who’ve gone through it have seen it and it’s awesome that you guys have gone through the transformation.

This is purely my perspective but I think the lash at BodyRock is due to the change in format and workout hosts and to me that’s unfair to Freddy, Zuzana, Jess, Kayla, and Sean. I’m sure they can easily take down the side but that wouldn’t be good for those who have invested your time and energy in the exercises and I know they know that. There’s are enough sedentary people out there and you guys don’t need to be one of them and having this forum is great for you from the posts I’ve read regardless of times, reps, etc… you guys are doing great.

I do hope the pettyness does stop because I can also see through the posts that it’s bringing down the community.

Hello friends, could you comment please… i have started doing workouts July this year and since then i do 6 workouts per week. At first i was happy as i lost 6 cm around my waist and i can see muscles now. But for the last month i started to notice that i get bigger and bigger and havier of course. My legs became like mens. I meen they not like mens but for myself they are as big as never. I do take NO EXPLODE prior my workouts. Do you think that is the reason? or there is something else. I know that women doesnt have tostesteron and we cant get bulky, but i am a bit scared any way. Any advice????? Thanks in advance

  From what I read on the internet No xplode is meant to purely increase your muscles… So, I guess it might have to do with that.

  hi natasshka
  
  some people can build muscle easier than others. my legs get bigger easier if I use much weight.
  I don’t know what no explode is but there are some protein powders that will add weight to you if you’re not careful, they are made for guys to bulk up. I myself use a pure protein powder that has no other stuff in it, no carbs. but you don’t have to use a protein powder.
  If you are using a weighted sandbag you could always drop the weight if you don’t like the look of the muscles in your legs. I myself have just recently started using a sandbag, and I have been following these workouts for more than a year. I mostly use the weights when there is an arm movement involved though. like I quite often don’t use one to do lunges or squats, because I don’t want my legs bigger, just leaner

  Amazing climbers as always !! How are you ? I began to ask questions to me…now with work, I go to the gym at lunch, as you know, and do my workouts the weekend. And today I found my body “heavier”, with less agility ??Do you feel that too with gym or not ? Perhpas it’s just because I’m a little tired in this time….:(
  - MariaBjørgJepsen
    
    Hey sweety :) I am doing very good, enjoying a weekend off of work with lots of nice food and beers, mmmm. I just got home from a nice morning at the gym, love it! A perfect wake-up call. I think I know what you mean about feeling “heavier” after going to the gym. You stimulate your muscles in a very intense way, when working with weights, therefore your body feels sore, tired and more heavy in the days following. That is what I feel, as well. But I don’t mind, because I like the soreness :) It shows we make progress! I will not stop lifting weigths, because it brings so many great benefits. Do you enjoy your weekend?
    Love, Maria

I don’t agree that the pictures are too sexual. Zuzana does tend to show some cleavage and likes wearing lower cut pants/shorts but there is nothing vulgar about it. In my view, neither Kyla, Jess nor Sean over emphasize their sexuality. They dress and behave like any other young, fit, women/men working out.

I think people need to see some of the cover shots as modelling shots, it’s not very different from what you see in a fitness or fashion magazine.

I understand that more conservative/prudish people may feel differently, but in no way the pictures are in conflict with the values of the site in my opinion.

Done and done. This was great. I loved the little refresher course on mountain climbers. Turns out I WAS doing them wrong! Thanks guys. I added some skipping to this, so my total workout time was only 11 min, and I’m drenched, and I get to feel good about the yummy piece of homemade whole wheat bread I’m going to eat with dinner!

My comment about partying was more in jest than anything else. Don’t read too much into it. As for my comments on the poses… well, that’s up to the individual I suppose. I don’t for one moment take for granted what Bodyrock does for anyone, especially me. I’ve been a committed bodyrocker for going on two years now. I don’t know about you, but I don’t think sexy needs to be, more or less, a crotch shot. Some of Zuzana’s sexiest pics were of her working out. I definitely prefer those. Beyond that… meh.

Sweatyyyyy. Very humid where I am in Australia today. I am really loving the mature aspect of Kyla’s presence, and her inspiring posture:)

I think that this workout did take into account some requests from the community, a short workout, and a bodyweight only workout. and it was a very good focus on abs, something else people keep asking for.

I like when they post these little short ones once in a while, because they are so good if you have had a really rushed day, and you can still pop in this little workout! They are also good for a little extra fat burning in your day, as a second workout.

also I read in a new article somewhere that Zuz & Freddy were supposed to meet up in December, so maybe this is why they haven’t put a schedule up, they do have personal lives, and a schedule takes time. If you check their bodyrock facebook page they quite often suggest workouts on it.

They moderate the site, so usually new people take a while to post, keep posting and when they notice that you are generally a positive person, then you will probably make it to the “white” list, then your posts will show immediately. You can also ask to be put on it, might help.

    Hi Maria…I did the intervals wrong, I did 10×50′s for part 1. I knew my numbers were off, I was like “Where are Maria’s scores? there is no damn way I got reps higher than Maria…” And sure enough, I re-read the directions and I goofed. Seriously, I only had a beer afterwards, not before… cheers :) now I am off to do this quickie again and see what I’m really made of. However, my butt now is really sore from the 50′s on this goof and Six Pack Abs 2011 this morning. But its an itch I’ve got to scratch. Then I’ll have another ale :)

Hello!

I hope you do not mind if I ask. It is just I was diagnosed with the osteochondrosis of sacrum area (I am not sure if this is correct term). I am 22 and I can’t understand how on earth I got it – I was always very active and sporty.

Can you please say if I can do Bodyrock or not? Can all this jumping be hard on my spine? Or is it better to keep going with this training in order to keep my muscles?

I would really appreciate your answer.

Thank you in advance.

But not very happy to my shape. I lack agility I find. I’m like with weight in my legs and my arms..
Perhaps because I do most gym than workout now (with work) ???

Before this one I did “Pound Melting”

Enjoy your week end <3

Hey guys today I did the “15 Minute Hot Body Workout” from way back in December 2009 that they posted on Facebook yesterday. It’s a great oldie but goodie bodyweight only routine! Try it and post your scores!

Hi guys!

Tomorrow I’m going to revisit “bust it out! workout” this time I’m going to change the reverse pushups and the plank jumps, by doing 20 rep plank jumps and only 10 reverse pushups. It just makes more sense that way, as the rest of the workout was 20 reps lower body and 10 reps upper body, and I just can’t do 20 reverse pushups in a row!

I was thinking about this workout – the one that got away, and I’m inclined to think that this was Kyla’s first workout with the Light brother’s, that’s why she seemed a little quiet. I was skimming her webpage and her youtube channel and it kind of seems like she might be in hawaii? at least she posted a hawaii workout, and a mango recipe, looks like a hotel gym she’s in. I wonder how many workouts she did while she was here! (meaning Ontario)

I wish she would post her seatac workout in the bodyrockers section, I think it would be inspirational to show that you can do these type of workouts anywhere.

Today we are cooking brunch for 700 people, so I had to start work really early. I figured “well, if I have to get there at 5, I might as well get there at 4:30 and get in a quick workout!”. This was the one. Sure we only did it a few days ago, but there it was on the open page of my workout log, so no extra thinking was required.

My scores:

mtn sprints: 70-69-61-63
jump lunge: 23-20-20-20

plank butt squeeze: 52-43
staggered pushups: 29

I didn’t do flying jump lunges because of a weak knee, and I did Sean’s staggered pushups from the bust it out workout.

Hi there
I just wanted to tell you that my knees are better,and I will be resting them for another week and then I will start doing some workouts..some swimming,walking etc..
But I couldn’t just lay down doing nothing so today I did 12 min long workout (10-50) with only upper body exercises and after a week of just doing nothing it was hard, but I focused on my form and strength and not so much on speed and scores…

So I am thinking of you every day…

kisses to you all

  Keep up the positive spirit, my dear :)

Ok does anyone else miss Zuzana like I do? She said the purpose of having another person doing the workouts was that she wanted someone who represents all bodyrockers like Jess but then Sean and Kyla took over most videos! Zuzana please post some workouts you’re in and actually doing them! It’s not that I don’t like Sean, Kyla and Jess is just that you have a different sort of energy than they do and it really involves you. so PLEASE! And what happened to the coffee talks either?
Alina

Thank you!

Hi guys :-)

I see lots of comments concerning the way the site is running now… I’m trying not to join in because it will only add negativity. But what I want to say is this:

Lots of things are changing in Zuzana and Freddy’s lives, so please give them some time. They gave us so much, I think they deserve more respect; even if we do not agree with some choices, even if we preferred the way it was before, they are trying their best to keep this site alive whereas it must be so complicated in their lives right now. We don’t know what each of them is going through, we don’t know how upset they are, we don’t know how things will turn, … but I’m sure they will tell us whenever they will be ready, whatever their decision. So please be patient, give them your support, give your support to the hosts, give your support to Sean who is helping his best. And until we know, try to stay polite and positive, being negative will not help in any way.

I have a strong personal connection with Sean and Kyla :) Sean as a man has made me work even harder what I really appreciate. And Jess motivates me as well.
Karin Schmidt

That’s exactly what I need today! I am in the transition from day to night shift and was worried I’m not gonna get my workout, but this is short and sweet!

I am a female physician and I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to my younger patients who need some motivation to eat healthy/exercise. The issue with so many young people today is that they never are taught how to exercise or eat healthy. This site may have some sexualized images but I think they’re motivational for both men and women. Sex is natural and part of the human experience, being sexually attractive is also a reason for being physically fit (evolutionarily speaking). The work outs are too upper level high impact for many of my older patients who would be offended. If someone is offended they do not need to use the site. Keep on Rocking guys, I think you’re bodies are beautiful in any form you wish to show them off to encourage others.
Rosy

How many times in a day do u have to do this 7-minute workout? Or if someone can suggest a workout plan to lose weight. thank you, rosy
- Lisa
  
  Just start doing Body Rock workouts every day or close to it. If you push hard you would only have to do this once/day. There are tons of great workouts on this site, check them out! Hope that helps!
Ronald

Hi I’m from The Netherlands, Great work-out thanks!

Lisa

Tough one! I did weights at the gym, then did this 7 minute killer, then did the stair machine! I did a little extra today because I know we are going to be less active over the next few days of Christmas holidays. Those reptile pushups were insane! Happy Holidays, Zuzana, Freddy, Sean, Lisa, Kyla, Jess and all Body Rockers from around the world!
Lisa

Zuzana has posted a warm up that she does before working out. You can check it out here: http://www.bodyrock.tv/2010/10/23/warm-up-routine/

Have fun, this is a great website with so many good workouts, diet tips and people who support each other!
Lisa

For a while, I was only doing Body Rock workouts. If I do a workout from here, I usually won’t do anything else that day. I do take part in other exercise classes 2/week. I know Sean has said that he does about 90% Body Rock workouts and supplements with other training. If you are doing these workouts regularly and maintaining a healthy diet, that’s all you really need!
Mary Lou

I revisited this one today even though it hasn’t been a month and was I surprised!
Mtn Climbers 52, 51, 47, 54 (from 50 max)
jump lunges 17, 16, 16, 16 (from 15 max)
reg push ups 23 (18)
plank butt squeeze 31 (20)
plank hold Ow!
added 8r 10/20 skipping (reg & high knees), 20 reach up bike abs, 20 knee hugs, 20 leg lift/star crunch/butt lifts, head stands with upside down knee raises and a walkover bridge. Yay!

Have a Happy New Year Bodyrockers if I don’t post before then!!!!
Cindy

I did it today at the gym
Mt climbers 45-45-45-47
Split lunges 30-30-30-34
Plank butt squeeze 44-44
Reptile 10-10
I love to see Kyla and Sean together because they have strong chemistry.

I’d just like to comment on the “sexual” nature of this site that everybody is so worried about.

I personally see nothing wrong with how these workouts are presented. Workouts for men are constantly showing bare-chested trainers; it is incredibly effective, because you need to see how the body and all its muscles are moving. Plus this allows you to see just what great shape the person is in, and strive to reach your own personal goal. If this site featured any of these girls wearing baggy shirts and sweatpants, (and somehow NOT breathing heavily while they are WORKING OUT) I would not feel as inspired, motivated, or properly instructed. And you KNOW people would start saying things such as, “Why are they covering up so much? Someone developing a bit of a beer gut?” I even shared this site with my mom, who is definitely a bit prudish, and had her do one of the workouts with me; there was no awkwardness there.

In summation, I feel I need to see peoples’ bodies while working out. I don’t see anything sexual about it; I’m just here to be get in shape, and watching their muscles move and work helps me attain that goal.

backward lunge – 11, 10, 10, 10

plank leg raise/butt squeeze – 14, 10, 10, 9
