Yoga Fusion Fat Burn: Melissa Bender Fitness

Hi Everyone,
Today’s workout is a bit different. It combines high intensity cardio with full body yoga, and some strength training moves. It’s a very dynamic workout that will help you burn fat and get all-over toning.
I'm going to tell you a little secret. I didn't feel like working out today! I actually found today’s workout to be more challenging than normal. Jesse and I completed it in 21 minutes. I added clips to today’s video of Jesse and I doing today’s workout together. I was very tired today, but I pushed it, motivated myself to workout, and I am glad I did. J
I found a recipe online for a healthy version of chocolate peanut butter cupcakes. I am going to try it out (hopefully tomorrow!) and if it’s good I will share the recipe.
Motivate yourself to do this workout. It’s really great for you, and I promise you will work every inch of your body.
Melissa
