Fitness Transformation: Workout 1
Hi Everyone,
This is the first workout I have created for my Fitness Transformation workout series. I created this workout plan for my brother in law, Josh, who is just starting out on his fitness/weight loss journey. I had him complete the Fit Test to help measure his starting point and his progress as he completes my workout plan.
This workout plan is suitable for all fitness levels. By increasing the reps and rounds you increase the intensity of the workout. The focus is on full body exercises that will create strength, endurance, and all over body sculpting.
The focus of these workouts should always be on form. As you grow stronger and gain endurance you want to move from one exercise to the next as quickly as possible.
Josh is really excited to share his journey and progress with you. We have developed several goals for Josh along the way. His long term goal is to lose approximately 60 pounds. Short term goals are to improve his level of fitness and number of reps on the fit test, drop a pants size, drop a shirt size, and improve his cardiovascular endurance.
Josh is also working on making sustainable changes to his diet, and incorporating healthier eating choices.
I hope you all enjoy this workout!

ReplyDeleteIs this workout day one of a weekly schedule?
ReplyDeleteI am about to begin this workout-is it meant to be done more than once through?
ReplyDeleteThank you SO much Melissa (and your husband) for all the effort you put into making your videos. I was looking for something to do after Insanity that still challenged me, and your site is amazing! I just finished your second workout of your month 1 of competition prep workouts, and I plan to follow you through all of them and more. I think this is my first ever comment on anyone's site or blog ever, but you gave me a reason to say thanks, so thank you! Keep em' coming!
