Hi Everyone!
Welcome to Reset Workout #11! This Total Body Workout is fantastic, and will help you work up an amazing sweat!
This is a throwback workout that I posted a while ago, but I didn’t realize the original video had some audio issues. Sometimes when I do editing/posting on one device everything sounds great, but when I listen to it from my computer the audio has issues. That happened with this video.
I hope you enjoy the new video update. In the video I mention that this workout is Part 2 to a longer workout I filmed. Although this is great as a standalone workout, I am also posting a link to the first half of the video for anyone who wants a more intense and longer workout burn today. It is optional. You will find the video and the link to the original breakdown below the photo tutorial.
Over the last week I had to prioritize getting in my own workouts over filming new workouts. I just couldn’t get the time in for setup/photo/editing etcetera and was getting overwhelmed. I think part of it is pandemic fatigue, and part of it is adjusting to parenting two mobile children. My daughter is 7-months old now and crawling everywhere. She pulls herself to stand and wants to explore (get into) all of the things! I absolutely love it, but it’s a shift from when she stayed in one spot.
I’m teaching two kinesiology courses this semester, so I get in two days of yoga and two days of interval training with my students. I am lucky enough to be able to teach remotely, but I do miss interacting with my students in person. I also ran three times last week. Running is something I miss dearly and I’ve struggled to do consistently since having kids. Soon, I am going to do a Run Streak challenge. I’m going to get in at least one mile per day for a month. If that is something you’re interested in let me know in the comments.
I hope you enjoy today’s workout, and the improved sound. If you come across any of my other videos that are experiencing sound difficulties, please let me know by leaving a comment. I will go back and edit the audio so that you can continue to use the workout videos in the future.
I appreciate you and I’m happy that you’re working out with me today.
Melissa

Part 2 Breakdown and video link:
I am also having “pandemic fatigue.” I miss my regular yoga studio in-person classes, and somehow I’ve gotten out of my running and workout routine. I would like to do a Running Streak to get back into running. I could see 5 days/week to be realistic.
Hi Melissa! Long time fan of your workouts, first time posting in the comments. There is an audio issue with your “20- MINUTE TOTAL BODY LIIT WORKOUT: LOW IMPACT, NO JUMPING, APARTMENT FRIENDLY” workout that was posted in November 2018. The issue starts around the 12:30 mark. I use your low-impact workouts all the time when I travel (perfect for not disturbing other hotel guests), and I’m pretty sure I have this one memorized by now 🙂
Thanks for all you do!
Hi Melissa,
Thank you for your awesome workouts and sharing your wealth of knowledge with the world. I’m a mother of one, but working on baby #2 and the juggling of parenthood, marriage, work life in general is a balancing act. Your doing amazing and thank you so much.
With the holidays coming up can you share a post on ways to indulge, but modify eating habits during this time of year?
Hi Melissa. Always love working out with you. I Enjoy cardio burst in between.
You’re amazing!
