Ultimate Body Weight Workout: Full Length
Hi Everyone!
This is the full length version of my Ultimate Body Weight Workout. A full length version of this video was requested on my facebook page. It is a great full body, fat burning workout. Intervals are incorporated throughout to maximize the fat burning, while also allowing you to build lean muscle mass.
The workout was tough on me! It took me about 30 minutes to complete. I definitely have to work on my one leg squats, they used to be a lot easier for me. It's a good motivation to start putting them back into my workouts.
I was able to go through this workout almost 2 minutes faster than my original time. I also added a twist to the oblique drops this time, so I could have gone through it faster if I stuck to the original variation. I was happy with my time. It shows that my level of fitness has progressed (even though the workout is still tough!)
At the very end of the video, the camera went into "stand-by" mode, so you miss about two reps of the workout before it kicks back in for the last exercise. Technical difficulties are unavoidable sometimes.
This is a more advanced workout. It can be modified based on your level of fitness. I wrote down my recommended number of reps below the video. Remember to build yourself up, and listen to your body. You will get stronger if you keep challenging yourself.
Have a great day! I hope you enjoy the workout!

ReplyDeleteHi Melissa!
ReplyDeleteThank you so much for your amazing workouts!! I have always loved to exercise, but your routines are the FIRST ones that have really made me notice changes in my body. It's easy to get into a habit of doing the same exercises every day, and your website has helped me move away from that and switch up the muscle groups that I work out from day-to-day and week-to-week. You are such an inspiration!
Thank you!
You are improving my body one workout at a time! Thank you
