JM Yoga MeltDown Level 2 RAWKS!


"This is Hybrid yoga using your own body strength training for lean muscles" JM

Today I did the second workout on YogaMelt and I was challenged working up a sweat! Mind you I had to write this review too, so the next time I will be totally focused.

If you new to yoga, this is a great beginners workout because she shows the modified moves and also reminds you she is a beginner too. Nice to know she struggles like the rest of us, huh?

All the moves are at a good pace, again you won't be bored! This is NOT like regular yoga, its like power yoga fast flowing with at twist. The twist is after EACH movement pose, you do a 15 second hold. Which prepares you for longer holds, love it!

She explains it very well, and believe me when your done it won't even feel like 30 minutes its that fast. The only downside is she does not include any childs pose, and I would have liked to seen that incorporated in some of the in between flows. Lets see if I lose 5lbs in a week.

Cons - again NONE

Ps: This is NOT a relaxing workout, it is strong and powerful.

1 scoop vanilla ice cream 100% gold standard whey
