-go as far as range of motion allows
-then you will exhale expanding each vertebra at a time again 
-think about pulling the ground between your hands and knees away from each other

This workout feels humongous!!! Super high volume. It might be just me though 😂 if I push the weight in back squats and sumos, I don't much left in the tank for the single leg high volume stuff, WOOF!

Miranda

I so wish I had more time for this one today… I’ll be coming back to it!

Wrapped| Week 4 Day 5| Lowerbody

I took my time and did all of it. I enjoyed the stretches, mobility core and also running at the beginning.

Dominique

Wrapped| Week 4 Day 3| Deep Core + Mobility

Will definitely go heavier on the finisher next time. Still felt it though 🙌🏻

The workout is bomb, but let’s be real…. that thoracic stretch is always clutch!

Woo always get nervous about leg workouts!! But love getting them done!

Andrea

I know my quads hate to see this workout coming

Rachel T

Wrapped| Week 4 Day 1| Lower Body

Those drop set Bulgarians got the glutes burning! Loved it!

I loved this. I didn’t get to finish due to some hip discomfort but overall it was a challenging workout!

Jaime

Those depth drops are harder than they look. And the med ball twists are harder too only because you’re trying to keep your balance at the same time. I really enjoyed the mobility at the end. One side was definitely tighter than the other. Killer workout. - I’ll be doing this one again!

Chelsi

Wrapped| Week 3 Day 5| Lowerbody

Love the incremental pause lifts! Very effective!

Wrapped| Week 3 Day 4| Upperbody

I enjoyed it and did all of it through even the optionals this time. I find it very helpful and informative.

This is always a welcome stretching session each week!

Wrapped| Week 3 Day 3| Deep Core + Mobility

I enjoyed it and I did felt my body fighting against it especially the shoulder press trying not to arch my back.

Christy

Hannah’s alter ego should be Hanz and Franz because she’s here to pump 👏 you up!

Wrapped| Week 3 Day 2| Upper Body

Zarah

Wrapped| Week 3 Day 1| Lower Body

Whew! Loved the last set with the bridges and copenhagens!! 
I was/am in a funk today and was hoping this would help and it did! Not as much as I wanted but now I’m too tired to be ambiently annoyed so calling it a win 🏆

Morgan

I enjoyed it and finished after midnight! My legs definitely are on fire 🔥

I’m love a good lift! Jello legs are the best!

Mindset 3: Motivation

Completed yesterday but forgot to finish in app. Did stairs rather than run and was short on time so had to rush a bit but still enjoyed it!

This workout included such beautiful ranges of motion! Really felt like self care 💕

Sally

Just focused on the hip mobility. It’s 🔥

Michelle 

Wrapped| Week 2 Day 3| Deep Core + Mobility

I think I’ve been converted to liking running??? I did the sprints and then just kept going? Never saw myself as a runner but I’m here for it honestly 🏃🏻‍♀️💨

I got it done and really enjoyed it! Upper body soar and tired.

Wrapped| Week 2 Day 2| Upper Body

Increased weights, feeling sluggish after the holiday so this felt good to be intentional about. Did both the knee CARs and 90/90 swivels bc I’m not quite sure I’m doing the CARs right 😅

Thank you Hannah for this post turkey day sweat! (Yes I know I’m behind on days 🙃)

Fabulous!!  Had to modify the curtsy lunges by decreasing the height and body weight, same
With the step ups. There darn joust won’t cooperate.  But amazing workout. Lifted heavier and added a set.  ❤️❤️❤️

Brook

Wrapped| Week 1 Day 3| Deep Core + Mobility

Very impressed with myself on those sprints!! Wasn’t sure I still had the 10mph sprints in me post vacay but I did!! Also really needed that thoracic mobility at the end after some 10hour flights. Feeing much more limber but expecting to be sore tomorrow 🤪

The timer on the AMRAP - I wish there was a way to hear the minute cues on the timer

Jaci Jo Krogman

This felt so good! Just got back from a 3 week vacation and came back with a cold but really wanted to get back in the gym and back on routine so I told myself I’d try, took it easy and felt so good!! Definitely could go heavier but didn’t wanna push too hard first day back

NEW! Wrapped| Week 1 Day 1| Lower Body

Increased hip thrust from 240 to 275! And got 25 push-ups (on toes) in 45 seconds - up from 20. 💪🏻

Janessa Orwig

Max Testing Week: Hip Thrust + Push-up

I enjoyed the test and gotten more gain definitely in both since last time.

I don’t have leg press at home so tested with suitcase deadlifts and that increased from 155 to 165.

And for pull-ups. I have not yet conquered a full unassisted pull-up but when I first tested 12 weeks ago I could barely hold my chin above the bar for 3 seconds. Today I held it for a full 10 seconds and felt super strong right up to the end! HUGE progress!

Leg Press stayed at 425 but I wasn’t struggling as much as I was at the start. That equals a win!

Chin ups: 3 full pretty ones and 2 eccentric. 
Thats a slight increase of 200% 😎

Max Testing Week: Chin Up + Leg Press

A great refresher videos before doing them.

Traditional Deadlift: 170 lbs - 14% increase 

Bench Press: 160 lbs. - 7% increase

Max Testing Week: Bench Press + Deadlift

I enjoyed being challenged in the end. I really pushed myself through.

I’m always amazed when I do these! I know I’ve put on muscle and feel stronger but testing it is so eye opening to how much my body has changed in 12 weeks. 

Squat increased from 170 to 190.
Military press increased from 80 to 100.

Max Squat: 165 lbs. - 10% increase 
Max Military Press: 65 lbs. - 8.33% increase

LETS. GOOOOOO!!

Max Testing Week: Squat + Overhead Military Press

11/10/25: Single Arm Row- 50 lbs 11% increase from the start

I did good for getting back into it after being off and on sick last month.

Max Testing Week:  Row + 1 Mile Run

Phase 3 Athleticism| Week 4 Day 5| Upper Body + Sprints

Hannah….we have to talk. I almost cursed you out on the split lunge box jump superwoman move. I’m not there yet. I cannot do that move at all LOL. I did try tho 🥲
However, the rest was really good 😛

This one felt hard today, but I did it anyway!

😲 
👆🏻
the face I made when I did 5 full, unassisted pull ups! 😎🥹🎉

Phase 3 Athleticism| Week 3 Day 5| Upper Body + Sprints

Whew this was hard today. Felt unfocused and a lil negative so those split squat jumps had me saying some bad words but the finisher cheered me up ☺️

Phase 3 Athleticism| Wk 3 D4| Glutes, Hamstrings & Adductors

Whew!! Thought I might die but I didn’t and I did the sprints at 11 mph which still doesn’t seem real to me but I didn’t that!!!!!!

Bruh…. This will give you the best sweat sesh and making you feel like you can do ALLLL the things! Great start to the day!

Phase 3 Athleticism| Week 3 Day 3| Sprints + Core

Phase 3 Athleticism| Week 2 Day 2| Chest, Back & Core

I always leave the gym looking like I don’t know what hit me after your workouts 😆

Upped weights and got my butt kicked but think I could still go a bit heavier for some. Very cool to see and feel the strength built from phases 1&2

Phase 3 Athleticism| Week 2 Day 1| Glutes, Quads & Abductors

I’m over here fighting for my life with these workouts and the grandpas at the gym keep coming up to me telling me I’m kicking butt 😆

Anna

Birthday workout today!! Those Superman’s were the death of me.  Def something to improve on.

Phase 3 Athleticism| Week 1 Day 5| Upper Body + Sprints

Had a lot of people watching the split jump ups! Never knew I had that much power in each leg until today!!💪🏼🫶🏽

Madison

Awesome workout. I had to modify the jumps due to my bad hips. But overall I got a great sweat and feel great

Phase 3 Athleticism| Wk 1 D4| Glutes, Hamstrings & Adductors

Those sprints! Fast and flat felt so much more doable after phase 2 with the 8 percent incline

Omg this hurt so good!! Loved it, I didn’t know I could run that fast!!

Perfect Saturday workout after night shift 🤩🤩🤩

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

Phase 2 | DELOAD Forge| Week 4 Day 4| Upper Body + Core

I won’t lie I do this workout at least once or twice a week now. I know it’s a series but it’s so fun to do this full body workout!

Really enjoyed the run today and didn’t have to take any breaks! This deload week has been nice to feel the progress I’ve made in the prior phases with lower weights or reps and it feeling easier

Phase 2|DELOAD FORGE| Week 4 Day 3| FullBody Strength

Just what I needed today. Really have loved the running on upper body days
