Did this yesterday but forgot to swipe right. 

Does it only register the same day I swipe? 
Or is there a way I can put down that it was from yesterday.

Thanks in advance.
Helps me keep track and stay motivated.

Week 2 Day 3: Upper Body

Very balanced workout! Allows you to put your all into each movement.

I hated it lol. I struggled with the split things and the power skips I kept trying to fall over. My head wasn't in the game today but I'm glad I finished it

Thx  :) I never procrastinate when it comes to lower body 🙃

Week 2 Day 4: Lower Body

The banded portion hurt lol. Is there a modification for the Patrick step?

Week 3 Day 1: Lower Body

It was ok. I can only do so much. But I'll get there

Week 3 Day 2: Upper Body

Week 3 Day 3: Upper Body

Those shoulder tap pop-ups had me reminiscing about sprawls! Might have to add in some MMA workouts over the next few weeks! I miss hitting my bag! 🥊💪

Week 3 Day 4: Lower Body

So this morning my husband walked in the treadmill while I worked out. He knows how much I dislike yelling trainers so as I'm doing the HIIT portion he's yelling "ok Peleton. You can do this! C'mon Peleton don't give up now!" Laughter adds a bit of abs to the workout...🤣😂🤣

Week 3 Day 5: Upper Body

On week 4 and can already see and feel a difference! 💪🏼❤️

Carmen

Brought my 10# weights and my band to my friend's house as I slept over. Still able to get my full workout in! 💪

Sweaty day in the basement... now on to a 6 mile internal run with friends! 💪🏃‍♀️

I can definitely tell the difference between doing this before the 60 day program and after. Love it

Good tough 💪thanks best motivator!👏

Week 4 Day 5: Upper Body

Amazing way to start the day & week! Thx :)

Week 4 Day 6: Upper Body

Week 4 Day 7: Active Recovery

After the first set it was incredibly hard to do push-ups. On the flip side I was able to do 60 jumping jacks whereas when I started I only did like 15, and I increased the weight on the tricep workout.

Good. Struggled to get through the amrap round because of change in elevation. So I was only able to do a full one and then part of another :/

Week 5 Day 2: Upper Body

Feeling great. Definitely needed the cardio today

Felt the heavier weights today (in a good way). Did a 2.5 mile run in the crisp outdoors for my cardio. Felt good after a sweat sesh!

Week 5 Day 3: Upper Body

I love a good leg day! I did notice that the warm ups we listed last on this day but obvi I knew to do that first...🤔

Week 5 Day 4: Lower Body

Amazing, thanks for keeping me motivated!

Week 5 Day 5: Upper Body

Thankful for my treadmill so I didn't have to do my cardio in the midday heat and humidity! 🥵

Week 5 Day 6: Upper Body

Week 5 Day 7: Active Recovery

Extra humid in the basement  = extra sweaty 🥵🔥💪Gonna do a which run too before it gets to hot out! 🏃‍♀️

Week 6 Day 1: Lower Body

Oh man... between leg day and running yesterday those pop squats had me feeling like jello!

Week 6 Day 2: Upper Body

Felt great! Did the 12 minute abs you posted on Instagram... 🔥

Week 6 Day 3: Upper Body

Oops... you did it again Britney... the warm ups were listed last again in this sesh! 🤪

Week 6 Day 4: Lower Body

Ok so tomorrow is the last day of this...what? But seriously... what should I do Monday...I want to incorporate more running in my week as I have a few races coming up... what do you recommend? PS if you added a 6 week running/strength program I would not be disappointed...

Week 6 Day 5: Upper Body
