Hi Everyone,
I mentioned on my facebook page that Jesse and I taught a Boot Camp Class last night. Several people wanted to know what we did in the class. I filmed a version of the workout we did last night. The moves are the same, but the format is different. During the class we showed plenty of modifications so that the class was accessible, and challenging for people at a variety of fitness levels. In Boot Camp we did this workout in an interval format, so all of the exercises were timed. Everyone went for maximum reps, which allowed everyone to work at their own pace.
It is always important to build from your current fitness level. You need to learn how hard you can push yourself, while still listening to your body. Keep track of your reps, or the total length of time it takes you to get through your workout, and aim to improve that the next time you go through it. You may surprise yourself at how quickly you are able to make improvements. You will also learn more about what your body is capable of, and improve your confidence in a variety of situations.
I hope you all enjoy the workout and have a great night!
Melissa

Have you ever tried temple tap abs on a ball? You should try it. Works some different muscles in addition to the same ones worked in Temple Taps.
Melissa, I love, love your workout program and I am so appreciatitive (and my body:) of you and your husband sharing this.

I just finished that one! GOD I love how I’m feelin…. Thank you Melissa! I just look forward to working out with you the next day everyday! 😉
Hi, Melissa! Wow, great workout! I tried it yesterday, first thing in the morning on an empty stomach, to start my day off… And I did a nice 10-minute warm up. And I even pushed with you for the second round!
Wow, I was so energized the entire day! Thank you!
Question, I found the “Pendulum Squats” a litte bit similar to your “1 Leg side lifts”. Maybe I was doing them wrong…
Thank you! 🙂
Thank you for posting these wonderful, free workouts for stay-at-home moms like me! Seriously, your at-home workouts have been an immense blessing to me when I only have 20-30min to myself before my kids wake up from naps/need me. Your workouts have enabled me to stay on track with my health and fitness goals, prioritize my well-being in the midst of caring for my girls as well as set a good examples for my two little daughters. Really appreciate all you do to help others, keep up the good work!!
