I hope you are ready for another great workout! This is a standing lower body workout. It is definitely going on my list of favorites! My legs were burning during this one!
This workout will challenge your lower body in all planes of motion. It’s a balanced workout to challenge and shape your glutes, thighs and legs. If you want to amp up the intensity even more you can add dumbbells or a weighted vest to increase the challenge.
Nicole joined me for this one. We have been best friend since second grade, so it was great to have her in a workout with me! It is such a blessing to be able to share fitness with your friends. I love knowing that we are making ourselves healthier as a team.
Nicole, Rose and I have been having a fitness focused week here in San Francisco. I am going to miss having my daily workouts with them when I go home!
Prior to filming this workout I did a 4.54 Mile Run outside at an average pace of 8:15/mile. Nicole did a 2 mile run before our workout. Typically, I recommend running after a workout so form isn’t compromised. Sometimes I switch the order because I like to vary the challenge so my body doesn’t adjust.

Melissa I absolutely love your blog and think you are such an amazing woman for doing it. I know you touch on nutrition, but I was wondering if I could get your thoughts on protein powders and supplements. Ex: vitamins, amino acids, etc. Thank you and I look forward to the next workout!!
My favorite lower body workout ever! Was sweating head to toe the whole time and had a great burn. Love the 50 second intervals, I tell myself I can do ANYTHING for just 50 seconds and it helps me get thru even when I m dying. Thanks for yet another awesome workout Melissa!
Love the workouts…I did this one 2 days ago (I added weights) and still sore! Cant believe how something that looks fairly easy to do is so effective!!

Thankyou Melissa, can’t wait to do it tomorrow!!
Sore for days! (Looking forward to coming back for more.)
This is one of my favorites that I come back to often! I like to pair it with your 15 minute standing dumbbell workout.
