Hi Everyone!

Welcome to today’s workout.

This workout is focused on the Lower Body. We are building strength, power, endurance, and the ability to complete explosive movements.

This interval workout combines weighted exercises to build strength and shape in the muscles of the lower body, with a powerful plyometric section to increase endurance, athleticism, and your body’s ability to perform powerful movement patterns.

Focus on form during each exercise, but challenge yourself to get in maximum repetitions. You are going to get in a fantastic burn, by pushing yourself outside of your comfort zone. Don’t be afraid to sweat, breath heavy, and push hard. You are training yourself to be physically and mentally stronger and to have more endurance.

Strength and Power Workout Burn: 1-Round.

If you prefer to complete this workout for Repetitions:

Level 1: 10 Reps
Level 2: 15 Reps
Level 3: 20 Reps

Sometimes, with weighted exercises I enjoy doing one round for time, and one round for reps. Both techniques are effective, and challenge your body in different ways.

Post-Workout Sweat

If you hear baby cooing, or a rocking sound in the background of this video, it’s because my baby was asleep in her swing. She woke up while I was filming, and calmly let me finish my workout.

I can’t believe she is 4-months old already! I want both of my kids to grow up knowing that exercise is a normal, healthy part of life.

Post-workout smiles.

I hope you enjoy today’s workout! Let me know what you think.

    Hi Melissa,
    I love doing your workouts! My baby does not like to be aside during workout time. I would really love it if you would do a standing workout with baby in the carrier!

    Hi Melissa,

    I’m 34 weeks today and completed two rounds of this workout along with a 3.11 mile walk. It was awesome, challenging and sweaty. This workout gave me a boost of energy. Thank you for all that you and Jesse do making fitness available no matter where you are.

    Best,
    L Wilson
