Hi Everyone,

Marie came over for another workout today. She brought her gorgeous son, Liam with her. When he got tired of watching us, and wanted some attention I decided to include him in our workout. 🙂 He loved it, and I got to play with an adorable baby so we were both happy. 

Marie has gotten a lot stronger, and has been losing both pounds and inches since starting her fitness bender. She did a great job in today’s workout, and was able to do the intermediate number of reps for everything except the Lunge Kicks (which she did 10 of). So she has really improved a lot in a short period of time. 

If you’re on a more advanced level repeat this workout 2-4 times. It took us 15 minutes exactly to go through this workout once. 

Enjoy, and have a great day!

Melissa

    While we all love Melissa and are amazed at her body, focus and form – I love seeing Maria join her. It is so nice to see someone like me – a beginner, work through what appears to be second nature to Melissa. Keep up the work Maria – you are inspiring us and that baby is adorable!!

  3. How lovely! So touching look at you with Liam, especially now 🙂 You both are so cute! Your baby will also be an invited guest in workouts, right? 🙂
