His Trainer Jay Cardiello gives you details on what their 7 HOURS/day of working out entails in the video below. Working on some updates for ya’ll, this will hold you over till then!
If you don’t know already, M. Obama has been championing to stop obesity amongst kids in the US with her ‘Let’s Move’ Campaign, and we at Hip Hop Hard Body think it’s genius that she teamed up with the 1st lady of Pop & Hip Hop in her latest project.
Beyonce remixed her “Get me Bodied” single (from the album B-Day) to a more fit-focused “Move your Body,” paired with a video of some tweens doing fun & simple dance moves to the re-vamped track. Check the video out along with a video of Beyonce letting you know what the mission behind the movement is all about! More to come!

image source: MotleyHealth.comKettlebell training is official business. Fusing strength training, power lifting, and cardio, it will give you an exhausting and effective workout in under 30 minutes (if you know what you’re doing).
The way it sculpts your body is only one of the major benefits aside from increasing endurance, strength, and cardiovascular health.

Our first Feature for “Hard Body Hustler” is Vanessa “L.A.” Mullings. This Lady wears many hats, most recently promoting her work as an author with the release of her novel, ‘The Night Trade,” an ode to the life of a Stripper.
From her phenomenal physique to her longevity and respect within the Music/Entertainment industry…she is a prime example of what it takes to be featured as a ‘Hard Body Hustler.’

Gladiator by Common is one song that stays in rotation for me when I need that “I’m the Ish” ego booster song to get me going. It also sums up the mission and mentality of Hip Hop Hard Body.
When I’m on turbo speed on the treadmill, or doing deadlifts with weight that has people flinching around me… that song is in my head (Gladiator Status).
My word is the sword- You’re not ‘fickle/feeble/weary/flaky’ with your words. When you say something, YOU MEAN IT. If you said you’re doing something.. YOU’RE GETTING IT DONE, come hell or high water. No excuses. Stop speaking of your intentions and make some things happen! Let’s Go!
My Skill is the shield- Make sure that you’re so thorough with what you do, that no one can question your expertise and your mission to perfect it. You represent your work, and everybody knows that you’re the “Go-To Guy” when it’s time to get the job done. Or at leaset, if the don’t know now…THEY WILL KNOW SOON ENOUGH.
My Life is the Style- This is the clencher! Hip Hop Hard Body… it’s a culture. How we walk, talk, dance, laugh…dress. We go in with the fitness to make sure that our style is OFFICIAL in the street. From our physiques to our fashion sense, you MUST respecct the grind. When we take care of our bodies anything we do, say, or wear has that extra energy & flyness. Stay Fresh!
I Stay dressed to kill- And to finish off..No matter how much we are or are not wearing! Any angle, we WON’T be caught slipping. Threads stay fly, keeping the body right, and eating clean because anything else means you’re inside situation is Funky (no bueno…we dont do that here). We know what looks good, and make sure that we rock it like no other. Stay FRESH!
Go-In season is here! The gyms are packed from the crack of dawn till closing with people getting their late/last minute workout routines started. Spring is 20 days away. Time for that REALITY CHECK if you have been slacking on your Hard Body game!
Either way, We’ve got you covered. GLADIATORS! Shouts to Common.
I g
BUT… it’s already February, and according to the warming temperatures in the forecast (atleast here in NYC), it’s almost time for the OFFICIAl season of the Hard Body. So stop frontin’ and making excuses, because you’re going to be showcasing your hard work or lack there of in about 8 weeks! Don’t get caught out there! Let’s make it happen!
This track is damn near TRADITION in the USA to be played when Summer time commences, so go ahead and listen to it to reminisce on good memories..and to get motivation to make that hard body reach it’s peak to stunt in photos in Summer 2011!
