Lower Body, Low Impact Workout: Quiet! No Jumping-15 Minutes Per Round
Standard
Please follow and like us:
Hi Everyone! Today’s workout is all about the Lower Body! It is a low impact routine (no jumping), but it is still challenging. You will work your lower half from every angle. All you need for this workout is a chair and some dumbbells (optional). Adding weight to your workout will increase the challenge/intensity. If you don’t have dumbbells get creative and find something around your house! A gallon of water weighs about 8 lbs, and the fluidity and balance of the handle will add an additional challenge. I hope you all enjoy today’s workout!
I have some other great workouts already planned for this week, so keep checking back! On Facebook I am asking for any questions you have. Jesse and I will be filming a Q & A video. You can let me know your questions here: www.facebook.com/MelissaBenderFitness.

Thank you for finally putting a picture on that wall. haha!
Sorry if this is a dumb question. Is this just for women? I’m a 58 year old man. But I gotta tell you I’ve only been at this 3 days and I feel pretty good. It feels challenging but not in-doable. I’m committed to doing the full 10 weeks. Thanks for your help. Joe
