The Challenge Workout
Robinson designed each 30-minute class and boasts what she calls “workout choreography,” which flows and targets all body parts “with rhyme and reason.”
“We do upper body, lower body, ass and abs, we’re doing core and cardio, an arm workout,” she says. “So if you put them all together and you commit to this for three weeks, there’s no doubt that you’re going to be in better shape than when you started.”
Outside ofThe Challenge Workout,Robinson’s fitness routine is not too different. She says that completing the tough workouts “comes natural” to her. Right now, she’s focusing on incorporating more jogging into her workouts as it makes her feel good without overworking herself.
“I think we’ve gotten to be a society that is obsessed with vanity… and in the wrong ways,” she explains. “I encourage people to disassociate themselves with the idea of what in shape looks like, and associate themselves with what healthyfeelslike. No matter what level you’re at, the goal is at the end of a workout, you feel that much better about yourself.”
Robinson says she’s able to keep that focus on fitness and wellness even with her busy schedule.
Between running her own fitness platform RachelFitness.com and life at home with her wife Natalie Gee and their three kids — daughterAriand twin sonsJesse and Jack— Robinson says she still makes it a priority to squeeze in time for a workout every morning.
“I’m obviously a mother of three, my time is super tight. If I don’t get my workout done first thing in the morning, it’s extremely hard for me to get it done throughout the day,” she admits. “So, for me, the first thing in the morning works. And what I started doing was waking up before my household was up and just doing the workouts in my studio room in my house.”
