ab Archives - Just Jodi Style

Happy Tuesday! Normally on Just Jodi Style today would be Fitness Tuesday, but with Mother’s day around the corner I wanted to focus on a Mother’s Day fitness gift idea. Now personally I know that my mom wouldn’t come with me to SoulCycle or any of my work out classes, but she prefers to work out at home. I have previously posted about how she loves to take the stairs everyday in my parents office building as her form of exercise for the week, but not everyone has that luxury to do that. One of my friends recently told me that her Mom saw Khloe Kardashian using an ab roller wheel in one of her workouts and she wanted on herself. Now before I ever tell my Mom about any at home work out I like to test it out myself to see if I enjoy and also to make sure she it isn’t too much for her. This ab roller wheel I got from Amazon and it was only $15!!! First off such a steal at that price and secondly it was very easy to put together. It came in a small box and just a few pieces and I was rolling my way to flatter abs. I have noticed that the ab roller does work better and easier while using it on my carpet vs the hardwood floors. On the hardwood floors I felt like anytime I moved over a crack in the wood I felt like I was going over a speed bump. However, this is also difficult on marble floors because you don’t have as much control with the ab roller wheel as you would on carpet. I have personally bought one for my home in Miami for my Mom, but shh she doesn’t know it yet so nobody tell her please 🙂 . I hope everyone is having a great Tuesday so far and getting all of their last minute Mother’s Day gifts! This ab roller wheel is also available on Amazon Prime so you know it will definitely get there before Sunday!

Happy October Everyone! I can’t believe it’s finally October – my birthday month! Every month I have decided to set myself a new goal for the month and this month is no different. I found this 30 day ab challenge while searching through facebook on Lauren Conrad’s website.I said to myself this seems like fun and maybe some of my friends would like to do it with me. I had originally wanted to start it last month, but my friend Ashley said let’s start it October 1st and we can call it HBH aka Hot by Halloween :-). Of course I think all my friends are stunning already, but that’s what she wants to call it. When doing these at-home workouts it always seems like there is a distraction to what you are doing. My suggestion is if you are a member of a gym then do these at the end of your normal workout. If you don’t go to a gym then do them either right when you wake up in the morning or right before you go to bed. I personally have grown into a morning workout person. I love starting my day off with a work out because most people at the end of a work day are too tired and just want to go home to snuggle up on the couch. That’s what I do with my sweet puppy Stella every single night. She is the best snuggler. I encourage you to push yourself this month to do something that will make you not only healthier but less stressed and more relaxed.
