Full Body Tightener

Hi Everyone!
The new workout is below. I am going to start experimenting with some healthy recipes, and sharing them. If you have any feel free to send them to me! I am still sticking to the increased veggie intake. Did you know that you should be eating between 2 ½ to 4 ½ servings of vegetables every day?
I want to know about your personal workout challenges. Is there anything you find especially difficult? Is there a certain exercise you don’t like? I enjoy challenging myself by doing moves that are difficult for me. It makes it that much more rewarding when those moves start to get easier. Don’t get discouraged if you need to start out with easier variations, or a lower amount of reps. Workout out is a building process. You will see progress!
As always, thanks for checking out my site! I hope you enjoy the workout.
Melissa

  1. Most people do not come close to the fiber intake they should be achieving, which is 25 grams. It starts with vegetables and fruits, and you can sneak them in your foods. I am vegetarian, so I like cabbage, cucumbers, tomatoes on my veggie burgers. Right there you are getting them in without really even trying. Napa cabbage is amazing on a burger, the crunch is fantastic. I also like to start my day with a few large carrots and water to cleanse my system and I read the beta carotene helps with color of you are feeling pale as of late. Great workout and information as usual, thanks for inspiring as always, especially with such educated information on form.
