Hi Everyone,
Today’s workout is a doozy! Saturday is when I have a bit more time to create a more intense, longer workout. This one took me 36 minutes and 40 seconds. There were a few exercises in here today that I found really tough! On the last set of Burpees I really wanted to quit half way through, but I am so glad I pushed through and did all of my reps! I feel so wonderfully energized now.
Tonight I am going to add on 15 minutes of jump roping before I take my shower, just to get in a bit more cardio.
I hope everyone is having a great weekend!

Beginner: 10 reps, 30 seconds for timed exercises
Intermediate: 15 reps, 45 seconds
Advanced: 20 reps, 60 seconds
Note: I used my interval timer for both cardio burst portions of the workout. I did 50 seconds of each timed exercise, with 10 seconds of rest in between. If you don’t have one use a stopwatch, over timer, cell phone timer, or you can guesstimate. I am putting the number of reps I fit in for each timed portion below). You can time your entire workout so you can see improvement as you repeat this one over time.

My total time: 45:33. It’s much slower than your time 🙁 Side Plank Series very slowed me down. But I pushed really hard and I’m satisfied this workout. Also after a 1 minute break I did 15 minutes of cardio. I feel wonderful now 🙂 Thanks a lot, dear Melissa!
Awesome Job! That’s still a great time. As long as you are challenging yourself you are getting in a great workout. It sounds like you definitely pushed through!
Thank you so much for your kindness and support!
