Shape Your Butt, Tone Your Abs Workout
Hi Everyone,
My video from yesterday finally uploaded! I don't know exactly what happened, but I had to upload it to youtube twice before it would work! Everything is good now though. I guess that means there will be two videos today. :)
In addition to this workout I also ran for 30 minutes, and walked for 30 minutes on my treadmill. Jesse did a long run yesterday so I had plenty of time on my hands.
I like the quote on the picture above. "Some people dream of success, while others wake up and work hard at it." Don't just dream. Make your dreams a reality. Your actions (or in-actions) help sculpt your world. Don't let life just happen to you. Go out and make the changes that will get you where you want. Take it one step at a time, and before you know it your goals will be within your reach.
Thanks to Beef from www.askbeef.com for creating that poster for me. He is actually a great example of going out and making the changes required to get you where you want to be. Check out his transformation story.
I hope you enjoy this workout. There will be a new one later today!

Hello Melissa!
ReplyDeleteI wrote you a comment about a problem with posts updates. The last post I see in the RSS feed is the recipe for pumpkin muffins. I can only see the new workouts here. Can you help me?
Best wishes,
Carolina
Carolina, Thank you for letting me know about that issue. I had to change my domain name, and that was the last post I made prior to the change. Everything should have automatically transitioned over, but for some reason that doesn't seem to be happening. If you go to the subscription area does it allow you to re-subscribe to the RSS feed?
DeleteI will continue working on this problem. Thanks again!
Hello Melissa!
DeleteI think you hadn't received my first comment, so let me first say that I love your workouts, thanks for sharing!
About the problem with the RSS, I managed to subscribe again, but it doesn't update. The post of July 31, appears as the last post.
Thank you for the attention, I hope you can solve the problem!
Thank you for the workouts!:)
Carolina-Thank you for your support, and for notifying me of the issue. I believe that it is fixed now, and the subscribe button should now lead to the new feed. :) Please let me know if you have any more issues!
DeleteHi!
