MWH: Fitness + Wellness 4+

I used to be a runner and believed the only way to stay in shape was to do lots of cardio and light weight training… until I tried and stuck with MWH! After I finished a half marathon last Fall, I wanted to give my joints a break and try out an at-home low impact workout. I’ve tried a few in the past but could not stay interested in returning to my mat, even in the conveniency of my own home. Which goes to show, Melissa Wood-Tepperberg has a captivating demeanor that makes you actually want to come back EACH day as it’s true that you can see results change in both your body and mind with her program. I’m 5’6” and was 133lb last October and am now 123lb with an entirely different physique. She creates a sense of change inside of you that makes you feel committed to achieving long lasting health. I look forward to my daily workouts and meditations with her and have even gone so far in nearly eliminating my alcohol intake. That for me is a major piece to this commitment puzzle! I hope others can follow her guidance and make the change for themselves. It is self-gratifying, mood-boosting, and evolving oneself to be stronger physically and mentally as we all know going through adulthood needs this foundation to be the best we can be.

This past year and 5 months has been so profound. I was always a gym person who spent a minimum of an hour and 45 minutes, 6 days a week killing my self. When Covid arrived, Equinox closed down, and I had to find an alternative to my daily routine. Afraid that I would never find a replacement to my gym and certainly not ever thinking I could follow a program through an app, I, unexpectedly, but happily so, discovered MWH and have never turned back. She has been my guiding light through it all. Not only do I feel great physically; strong, lean and healthy, my mind feels the same way too!! Her flows, whether short, long, with weights or not , along with her amazing meditations, have truly kept me focused on what really does matter. I turned my sister, who lives across the country in Boulder Colorado, and who I have not seen in over a year and a half, on to MWH. I miss her so much but through our connection of MWH, we schedule 2 week flows and follow our practice together, challenging ourselves, each other and keeping us connected close encouraging each other from afar. As women who have significant careers, who are Mother’s, Wives and everything else, MWH keeps us grounded, balanced and most importantly, grateful every single day. Thank you Melissa for all you do

I started using the Melissa Wood Health app during the 2020 pandemic and y’all - it was and continues to be a game changer. Melissa has such a calming voice and her flows and workouts open up your body unlike anything I have ever done. As a former soccer player, I’ve always preferred HIIT workouts - if I wasn’t dripping with sweat and at the point of exhaustion, I didn’t think I was working out. Melissa has reset the way I look at my body and my workouts.

My muscles have been elongated through her flows - both elongated in tone and elongated in flexibility. I’ve learned a lot about how I don’t need to pound my joints to get a good workout. Movements and pulses actually make me more sore in the right ways - in the “wow, I got a great workout and I feel stronger” and “whoa I didn’t know my body could do that” kind of way. My mental clarity has improved from the challenging workouts and fantastic insights Melissa shares.

If you’re thinking of downloading this app, I encourage you to at least give it a week. I think you will be amazed. I’ve never been flexible or into barre or pilates workouts, but when I use this app, it is easily one of my favorite parts of my day. PS- there is no better way to jumpstart your day than by starting it with MWH.
