Hello Everyone!

Welcome to this week’s workout schedule! Below you will find each full length workout video for our schedule this week, as well as a link to the full workout breakdown and photo tutorial.

If you have a second, please let me know in the comments if you prefer having just the video, or the full workout breakdown link available.

We have six No Equipment workouts on the planner this week. All you need is a little bit of space and a yoga mat and you’re good to go. Be sure to stay hydrated and support your health with some deliciously, healthy food choices this week.

The image above is a delicious Veggie Wrap. This is one of my go-to easy meals for days when I want to get in plenty of nutrients but I don’t want to spend a lot of time cooking. You can add different veggies or throw in some shrimp or chicken if you want more protein.

Tonight I used: red onion, garlic, red and yellow peppers, baby Bella mushrooms, and spinach. I sautéed everything in extra virgin olive oil and a dash of Worcestershire sauce. I wrapped everything with a garden vegetable wrap with roasted red pepper hummus and a slice of provolone cheese. Simple, but delicious!

During this week’s workout schedule be sure to listen to your body. If you need an extra rest day, that’s fine. Just add an extra day and extend your workout week.

Have fun this week and take some time to celebrate how much your body is capable of. Showing up for these workouts takes physical and mental dedication. I hope you recognize your own strength.

See you soon with new workouts,

Melissa

    Thank you so much for all you do for home fitness, Melissa! Its always nice when you’ve done the scheduling for me and removed the planning hurdle for the week 🙂

    I definitely like having the workout breakdown as well as the videos. I love following along real time but also follow the breakdown on my own if I want a different format (like reps vs timed, cutting out/down on cardio bursts between exercises when I’m short on time, etc). Its also nice to see all the exercises to decide if I want weight handy and how much, even if I do plan to follow along with the video.

    Hello Melissa,

    I have just experienced exactly what you said: “showing up for these workouts takes physical and mental dedication”.

    This one-week planner (six days back-to-back) was not easy, but it’s worth it. It produces the expected and desired results without running into any kind of overtraining or injury.

    Thank you for your great kindness in sharing it!

    Hey Melissa!
    You asked us to share if we are okay with just the video or the breakdown, too!
    I really like to see the breakdown beforehand, especially when I write down my workout plan for the week, it’s really helpful to see what kind of torturous exercises will be ahead or if i will opt for another workout instead 😉
    So yeah: Breakdown is greatly appreciated, I skip the tutorial pictures tho, since you’re such a good instructor, anyone can easily understand the exercises during the video.
    Much Love to you!!
    Catherine

    Hi Melissa,

    I love your workouts! Thank you for the inspiration. Lately, however, I have had some knee pain with single leg squats. I wonder if there are substitutions or better yet, stretches to help.

    Thank you!

    Thank you for posting these workouts! I do enjoy having the exercise breakdown below the video. I do sometimes need to modify so it helps me to know ahead of time. Or if maybe I should wait on a particular video and do another video that day. The meal idea looks great. I’m going to work it into my meal plan this coming week.
