Good Morning Everyone!
Today’s workout is all about the lower body! Grab a pair of dumbbells, and a chair and you are ready to go for this one. It’s been a busy and challenging workout week if you’re been following along. If you need a rest day today, take one, and shift this workout to your schedule for tomorrow.
Learning to listen to your body is one of the most important aspects of fitness. It will help prevent injury and over-training.
In this workout video I use two 20-lb dumbbells to increase the intensity, but you can also choose to use body weight. I definitely recommend adding weight if you have access as it will help shape your muscles and increase the burn and challenge of the workout.
I hope everyone is having a great week! Tomorrow we are doing the Gender Reveal for Baby Bender with our families so be sure to check in to see if we are having a boy or a girl. We have absolutely no preference, we are just beyond thrilled that Baby is developing perfectly and looks strong and healthy! We still can’t wait to find out if we are being blessed with a son or daughter!
Enjoy the workout,
Melissa
PS: This is an older workout. I do have a baby bump now. These are all still exercises I can do while pregnant, and I plan on going through this workout tonight. I will let you know how many reps I get in, and how long it takes per round.
