19 Minute HIIT: Full Body Fat Burning Workout

Hi Everyone!

This is a fun, but challenging 19 Minute workout. I did this workout HIIT style, but you can also choose to do it for repetitions. If you're feeling wild you can do a round of HIIT and a round of repetitions. ;)

This is a great fat burner that will help shape and sculpt your entire body. I found it challenging and I hope you do too. It's the challenge that changes us. 

For anyone who is new to my workouts, these are the actual workouts that I do to stay in shape. So when you see me struggle in the video, it's because it's tough for me too (as it should be!) Every time that you do something that's hard you become mentally and physically stronger. You learn how to push, and you often learn that you are capable of more than you expected. 

I paired this with a 4 mile run. I was in a terrible mood yesterday (it's been a rough week!), and I really didn't want to workout. I had to push myself to do it, but I was glad that I did. I felt stronger, knowing that I was doing something positive and healthy for myself. 

What motivates you when you have a tough day? 

Have fun with this workout! 
Melissa

    1. Hi Javi,

      Walking, biking, hiking, swimming and jump rope are great alternatives to running. You can also do HIIT cardio workouts, just be sure to decrease the amount of time because you will be working at a higher intensity. :)
