Hi Everyone!
I have a throwback workout for you today! Jesse and I are getting ready to go out of town so we didn’t have time to film a new workout last night.
This is workout #17 of my HIIT the New Year Hard Workout Challenge. This is a full body, cardio, fat burning workout. It’s intense and very effective. According to my heart rate monitor I burned 179 calories during one 15-Minute round of the workout (and that doesn’t include the after burn!)
If you have followed my first 30 Day Instagram Challenge all of the moves in this workout will be familiar to you. I just finished up a second Instagram workout challenge, so you will be seeing those moves in a new workout soon too!
During the workout get in as many reps as you can during each 50 second interval. If you need to rest, take a quick break and get right back into it. The workout is supposed to be hard, and you are supposed to be working at maximum effort. You should be breathing heavy. You get out of your workouts what you put in.
That said, if you need to modify some of the moves that’s okay. For example:
-Burpee you can skip the pushup, and do a plank instead.
-Lunge Jump you can step forward, and squeeze before switching legs, instead of jumping.
-Ninja Jump: step both feet forward into a low squat and squeeze to stand.
You want to work to your maximum potential, so do the hardest variation that you can handle. If you aren’t up to the hardest variation yet, put this one your list to repeat. As you grow stronger you will be amazed at what you can accomplish.
I hope you all enjoy today’s workout!
Melissa

Melissa, this is great. And i totally love how normal you are as well as compared to the other online fitness guru, you pushed through the workout (jump lunges burned). Seriously awesome. Thank you. Keep us motivated dear!!
Thank you! I do these workouts right along with anyone who joins me. 😀 The challenge is what makes you (and me) stronger. 🙂
Two move photos are missing :O
Good work out
I was thinking of doing this but after hearing you struggle I was hyperventilation lo . Will work up to thus one. Xxoo
It’s a good one to build to!
congratulations for your job
Tried this today , nearly passed out
It’s a good one to build up to you. You can always cut the interval in half, and increase the rest time. As it gets a little bit easier you can increase the intervals.
I don’t right now, but I want to get back to having a more concise schedule. My husband and I both I work full time as Occupational Therapists, so sometimes our filming schedule gets thrown off. We are working on setting a schedule in place to make it easier. 🙂
This one has left me sweating buckets……thanks for hard work and with all the other videos you have I don’t mind when you don’t post a new cause I have 300 others of yours to do!!!!
