Ashley

Rachel T

Got my mile in 10:03 today! Planning to use this challenge to get at or below a 9 min mile

Morgan

I went to a spin class and did extra 10 minutes. I did the plank after class:)

Mariana

This is the only workout I did today because that's life but I didn't want to miss day 2 so got it done 😊😏

Caitlin

Such a fun challenge! Thanks for giving modifications too. I always feel accomplished after your workouts.

Did a 15 min warmup on the rower and then the planks before I get to my lifting!!

Nicole

That plank already got me exhausted… idk how I’m supposed to add 10 more days 🥴

Jackie

Working on keeping my heart rate low for easy runs ✅ excited to see this workout build!

Katie

Even more exciting than getting my workout in today, was actually waking up early to get it done before work! This 12 days of Christmas mini challenge is letting me build my way back to the habits of success.

Cristine

Really needing a challenge like this to get myself motivated as a new mom!

Alternating every 10-20sec made the plank not as hard to get through. Thank you for that! 👍🏽🔥❤️

Tamara

Not exactly a full workout yet; but this will make a great warmup!

HERE WE GO! 

Jog/run/walk one mile OR 10 minutes of cardio or your choice. 

Modifications: stair-stepper, bike, rower, eliptigo, ski erg, jump rope. You can walk up and down your stairs, perform step-ups on your couch, high knees, jumping jacks

1 Mile OR 10 Minutes of Cardio

Recommended time: 2 minutes
Every 10-20 seconds switch from front plank to side plank 

Modifications: can go onto your knees, can place hands on a bench 

Substitutions: bear plank 

Form:
-start on your hands and knees. Hands are directly underneath your shoulders, tuck your toes underneath you

This is a challenging workout for gym users and doesn’t relocate a realistic gym set up. I had to skip the treadmill intervals because the treadmill location is not near a location where I could complete the other exercises.

Jessica

Dead and dying but happy about it 🥵 The sweat is pouring down my face

Erin

Laura

Summer Sizzle| Week 2 Day 1: Power + Athleticism

Did this over the lifting since I’m having muscle fatigue

Summer Sizzle| Week 1 Day 5: Core + Recovery

Felt easy but I’m very sweaty so I know I pushed it! Quite pleasing to have it feel easy but still get some good work done

I thought this was gonna be easy peasy but boy I was wrong!  Talk about a sweaty mess! 🥵 ♥️

This was sooo fun and wow dripping sweat yet again!

Summer Sizzle: Week 1 Day 4| Full Body Conditioning/Flow

Killer! Even got a dude fist bump in the middle!

Kelsey

Summer Sizzle| Week 1 Day 3| Functional Strength & Core

Loved this workout! Can’t wait to increase weight on those db thrusters 😈

My favorite!!! I loooove a HIIT workout and this checked all the boxes 🤩

Sweaty mess. I told myself “maybe 8 rounds”, but once I got there I knew I could push through. I modified the box jumps and push-ups on the 5h round so I think that helped give me a bit more stamina. But boy, by those last 2 rounds I was getting gassed. Surprised myself by getting Tabata done pretty easily too. Gonna be sore tomorrow!

Ended the week with this workout and it was the perfect start to the weekend 🙌🏼

Reclaim Phase 3| Week  4 Day 3| Sprints + Core

So glad this deload week is lining up with my period 😊 makes it easier to convince myself to do a workout when I don’t it won’t be too hard.

Love those Z sits both challenging and provide lots of feedback

RECLAIM Phase 3| Week 4 Day 2| Upper Body DELOAD

A great deload day! Very sweaty, but felt good!

Hit a PR on the single leg press! Not too bad for a deload day!

Reclaim Phase 3| Week 4 Day 1| Lowerbody DELOAD

Felt stronger than I thought I would today! Was on vacay so didn’t do any of these workouts, but still did 2 rucks and 2 walks while away. Feels good to get back in to it!

Dedra

RECLAIM| Phase 3| Week 3 Day 5| Upperbody Athletic + Power

Felt good to crush this workout before vacay! This week lined up perfectly with my cycle so feeling extra strong 💪🏼💪🏼

Did nooooot want to move today but turned my brain off and got after it. Feeling better than when I started for sure

Pleasantly surprised with my increase and weight and performance all around 🤩

RECLAIM Phase3| Week 3 Day 4| Lower Body Athleticism + Power

I did the warm up, 8k + 9 min sprints and the core exercises. I'm exhausted and happy for it!. 🤜🏻🤛🏻

Completed last night but forgot to finish in app. 12mph is VERY fast for my little legs to go but I DID do it 🏃🏻‍♀️💨

lol she said, “sorry if these rolling V-ups give you ptsd” 😂

Opted for Spanish squats. My quads are on fire!!

Sweaty 😓 great one for the middle of the week

I am getting better at it and upping the weight in some including landmine ones.

Dominique

The around the world lateral shuffle I find fun to do 😁

RECLAIM| Phase 3| Week 2 Day 5| Upperbody Athletic + Power

I enjoyed it. Intense and simple at the same time.

Didn’t increase weight as much as I feel like I could’ve because my knee was bothering me today but still felt good to get this one done!

RECLAIM Phase3| Week 2 Day 4| Lower Body Athleticism + Power

Couldn’t push myself as hard until the last 20 seconds since I had my 3yr old riding his strider and he wasn’t going that fast 🤣 but did what I could!! I loved it still!

Kayla 

I enjoyed core and cardio. Enjoyed most of it.

Julia

Reclaim Phase 3| Week 2 Day 3| Sprints + Core

I am enjoying it and learning about getting more comfortable and confident in the movements while being stacked.

My push presses are feeling so much better 💪🏽🔥

RECLAIM Phase 3| Week 2 Day 2| Upper Body Strength + Power

I just got done with reclaim you march challenge and was wanting more workouts from Hannah! It was great!! I loved it. Although I have bands at home, my gym doesn’t have the bands like in her videos so I’ll have to bring mine from home next time! I did everything without bands at a slower tempo and I just love love loved it!! Soo good!! 10/10 recommend!

It’s been really hard mentally to stay consistent recently. I’m so glad I convinced myself to just do it today! Felt so good!

I definitely feel it in the glutes and certain areas. I took my time in the exercise. I enjoyed it until the end.

Courtney

I enjoyed learning new things and took my time on this one.

Whew! Always a little rough doing new exercises, the workout doesn’t feel as smooth but I’m excited to keep going and improving on everything! Felt good to move today, listened to my body and had an unplanned rest day yesterday.

Reclaim Phase 3| Week 1 Day 1| Lowerbody Strength + Power

Loving the little changes in phase 3! Felt really good today!

I enjoyed the upper body and things changed up. I also enjoy the stretches and cool down.

One of the best upper body workouts! 🤜🏻🤛🏻

RECLAIM| Phase 3| Week 1 Day 5| Upperbody Athletic + Power

Did not want to workout today but so glad I did!!

I enjoy lower body and I find it helpful.

RECLAIM Phase3| Week 1 Day 4| Lower Body Athleticism + Power

What a great workout, I also did the running twice! Inspired 🫶🏻

Wow that was good! Did 2 rounds of the treadmill work 👌🏻

Okay those rolling v ups did piss me off at first but once I got in motion no one could tell me shhhhh 🤪🤘🏻
I did struggle to roll from Superman back to my right side without a little finger push but I’ll work on it

Reclaim Phase 3| Week 1 Day 3| Sprints + Core

Felt good to get this done today! Definitely didn’t get as many workouts in this week as I had hoped, but next week is a new week!

I'm seeing some muscles 😱😍 I'm feeling so strong girls!!!

So loved every second of that. Feel so powerful!!!

RECLAIM Phase 3| Week 1 Day 2| Upper Body Strength + Power

We just did a little bit of errry thang today. Finally got connected with me PF which was really cool and strange at the same time.

Optional| HIIT & Mobility/Recovery

Some are challenging but I really enjoyed it.

Much needed core workout after week I had

Ooohh weee.  First time doing this and it has some really sneaky tough moves!  May be a new fave workout.

Reclaim| Bonus Advanced Deep Core (optional)

Reclaim phase 2| Week 4 Day 3| Deep Core + Cardio

My kids were screaming the entire workout but I still feel better getting it done! Here’s to a quick and easy bedtime😅

Shelby

Kept it about the same as last week as I found I had a bit more in the tank than I thought I did coming into my workout today so I increased sets and reps where I felt it and got a god sweat in!

Thank goodness it’s de load on spring break! Working out with 4 under 6 isn’t not easy 😅

Zarah

Reclaim phase 2| Week 4 Day 1| Lower Body Strength| Deload

Hey I finally tried the deficit with the box, instead of grabbing my leg and hey it felt so good. I was able to do it with great balance and form. 🤜🏻🤛🏻

Got it done and feeling great! This might be my favorite routine of this phase

Lowered the weights and heights but it all still felt good!

RECLAIM Phase2| Week 4 Day 4| Lower Body Athleticism| Deload

RECLAIM| Phase 2| Week 4 Day 5| Athletic Upperbody| deload

Might be lower weights and less reps, but she still will make ya sweat!

Decreased sets but kept weights and reps about the same and am already shaky 🤪

RECLAIM Phase 2| Week 4 Day 2| Upper Body Strength| Deload

These kinds of workouts make me feel like a professional athlete 🤜🏻🤛🏻 I love it.

RECLAIM| Phase 2| Week 3 Day 5| Athletic Upperbody

I enjoyed it and it makes sense to take it slow instead is rushing to maintain posture. I find it to be helpful is what I need.

Did not have time for the cool down today! But holy moly I’m dead 💀💀💀 woke up early and did a ruck with the hubby too. Great lower body day today!

That post period strength man 😂💪🏻😅

RECLAIM Phase2| Week 3 Day 4| Lower Body Athleticism

Completed yesterday but forgot to finish in app. Good day to switch things up because my body was hurting

This was a nicely timed workout as I needed to give my body a break from lifting.

Reclaim phase 2| Week 3 Day 3| Deep Core + Cardio

Added weight to my OH presses! Was a struggle at the end but felt good! My arms are dead 🩵

Lauren

Overhead press has always been so hard for me to progress but I’m finally noticing improvements here!

RECLAIM Phase 2| Week 3 Day 2| Upper Body Strength

Whew! That was a good one! Was able to increase my weight a little in the DL and hip thrusts! 💪🏼

BECKY

Today was hard! I felt like everything was just a little bit off today but that’s okay. I still got it done and am proud I didn’t quit

Reclaim phase 2| Week 3 Day 1| Lower Body Strength

Loving the landmine rotational clean and press!! Feels so good to do.

Loved this upper body. Love the athletic days 🔥 💪🏽 Starting to do more cardio again. Feels great 😌
