My baby is 21 months old, and I still look pregnant. I'm not telling you because I want your sympathy, it's just a fact.

This isn't terribly surprising, considering how big my pregnant belly was. This is me at 8 months pregnant.

It's amazing, really, how well I've bounced back with very little training -- but it's time to get my core back. I miss it! Plus, my back hurts. A lot.

Those of you that follow me on Twitter know that I'm seeing a Pilates trainer on Saturdays and that I really love my geriatric ballet class on Thursdays. (I'm serious, my fellow "dancers" are all over 60, and I love them so.)

Other than that, I was kind of stuck on what else I could do -- I specifically needed cardio, and while I love running, it's not feasible with three kids and no sitter. I'm not comfortable running on treadmills, and the elliptical bores me to death.

So when Nike and Glam approached me about trying out the <a href="http://bit.ly/pBH3JB">Nike Training Club App</a> for 6 weeks I immediately said yes. The app is free (unlike Pilates) and lets you tailor your workout to one of four fitness goals. I chose to "Get Lean" and the Beginner level.

I just finished my first beginner workout, called "fighter fit", and I can tell you two things about it: It's not boring -- most drills are less than two minutes long -- and it's hard, but not because it's confusing. The app walks you through each step, visually (photos and videos) and verbally (text and voice). It's like have a personal trainer, and you get to make your own playlist. Pretty cool.

Next Wednesday I will give you an update on my Nike workout and results and I'll have information for you on a cool Nike Training Club sweepstakes. Until then, XOXO!
