Hi Everyone!
Welcome to today’s workout! This no equipment workout is a fantastic full body exercise routine. One round will take 15-minutes. You can go through it once, repeat it up to 3X or stack it with another workout of your choice.
I ended up doing a 3-mile run with this workout. When I filmed the workout I planned to do one mile, but I felt great once I got started so I kept going.
This Month:
For my Melissa Bender Fitness membership, I am running a month long workout and step challenge. The workout series is exclusive for members, but I made the first video free to everyone.

It’s a great workout! I hope you give it a try and enjoy it. I’m working on finding a balance between filming workouts for members and sharing free workouts here. So far, member’s have access to more than 40 new videos, as well as a lot of my older workouts.
My youngest is super attached right now, which makes filming uninterrupted videos a little bit challenging, but as I get more into the routine it’s getting a little bit easier.
My Goals:
Now that I am filming more workouts (which means I’m being more consistent with my own workouts), I find that my energy is improving. One of my goals is to get back to running consistently and improve my 5K speed. This weekend I did a great speed workout, and yesterday I did an easy paced 3.45 mile run.
I’m playing with the idea of doing another NPC Bikini Competition, but I haven’t fully committed to that goal yet. What appeals to me about competing is the motivation, and seeing how home workout prep for a competition is different now that I’m 40, and my body has changed after having two kids.
What doesn’t appeal to me is the fact that a lot of fitness competitions seem to be focusing on increasingly leaner physiques. I would do a naturals competition, which is drug tested and often doesn’t trend quite as lean.
I have zero interest in doing a super restrictive diet, so if I do another competition I will be doing it my way. Which is the same thing I did the first go round.

I hope you have fun with today’s workout! See you soon with a new one!
