Turn it up ladies! Although I have no grandiose goals of having rock hard abs by summer, I do feel a sense of urgency to be a bit more productive at the gym lately. So here it is, the HeyGirlMommaGo Gym Jam Volume I, ready and waiting for you on iTunes. It’s a workout mix of pop, hip-hop and R&B groove girl power. Download it. Crank it. Own the treadmill…or play it in your car and get strange looks from faculty members when you pump up the volume in the preschool parking lot.
