Rockin' Body: Melissa Bender Fitness Workout

Hi Everyone,

I enjoyed today’s workout. If you move quickly between exercises you will get an intense, calorie burning workout. J  You really want to keep your rest time in between as short as possible so you are getting the most out of the training.

Let’s get a jump start on any fitness and health related New Year’s Resolutions. Why wait until January 1^st to make positive changes in your life? Start now! Since I started this blog I have noticed positive changes in my health, attitude, level of fitness and body. I love hearing from those of you who have started your own Fitness Bender’s. Tell me about your results or any questions you have.

In the meantime, enjoy the workout!
