Hi Everyone!

Are you ready to get sweaty? Then you should definitely start with this quick 5-Minute Warm-Up Routine. It’s a simple series of exercises to get your heart rate elevated, muscles and body warm, and blood flowing.

Warming up not only helps you increase the benefits of your workout, but it also helps prevent injury. Research has shown that when people warm-up first they are actually able to push harder and get in more Reps during HIIT exercise.

I am doing a little bit of video experimentation to see what you guys like best, so I am uploading the warm-up, cool down and lower body workout videos I filmed for today separately. I am also uploading it as one full workout with warm up and cool down in the same video.

I would love your feedback on what you like best/find most efficient for you. I know many people repeat the workout, or combine workouts so I thought that separate videos might be more effective. That said, it’s easier to have one video with everything in it, because then you don’t have to hop around looking for videos.

Please let me know here on the comments, or on Facebook what works best for you. We are trying to improve your workout experience.

Let me know what you think!
Melissa
