15 Minute Body Weight Interval Workout: Home Fat Burn
Hi Everyone!
Tonight we changed it up a bit, and Jesse got out from behind the camera and led the workout. :) It's a high intensity, fat burning workout. This workout uses no equipment, and only takes 15 minutes, but you will feel the burn!
Interval workouts maximize your fat burning capacity, so it is as beneficial as doing steady state cardio for 2-3X as long. Plus, your metabolism remains boosted for hours after the workout. HIIT (high intensity interval training) workouts are on of the best ways to burn fat and maintain lean muscle.
I hope you guys enjoy Jesse and the workout! See you tomorrow!
Melissa

That was a great workout and Jesse is so funny! Keep up the good work you two!
ReplyDeleteLOL!! this was so fun! you guys are awesome!! :)
ReplyDeleteFabulous workout! I look forward to implementing those Spider-man push-ups into my routine tonight. Jesse should be proud of himself, too; though your darling cat really did steal the show. I had to concentrate very hard on NOT watching her.

Great one! Thanks! You need to call it Jesse & Cat workout))) love your cats!
ReplyDeleteThanks everyone! It was fun to switch things up and introduce you to Jesse and the cats. :)
ReplyDeleteLoved watching Jesse break out in a sweat with this routine. Can't wait to try it later this week.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, what was that timer app he had on his phone? I need to download one of those.
You two are so great together! Thanks for the workout, Jesse had me cracking up the whole time.
ReplyDeleteGreat to see Jesse out from behind the camera. Melissa love your blog and have been following you for a few months now. Could you develop a workout that targets abs and thighs without using the arms so much? I have rsi in my shoulders and i often can't complete a full second round because it's just too much for my arms to bare. Thanks Sarah Australia
