This was so great! Look forward to the next workout #w1w1

Shayna

I really enjoy the instruction on the YouTube channel. Maybe a voiceover would be a little more helpful. Other than that, it was a great workout 😊

I love 3 reps! It helps me see how I’m getting the hang of things and getting stronger even in just one workout. 

So times that by 5-6 days a week… I’m planning on getting stronger joints and muscles CONSISTENTLY. Thank you!

Becca

It was great! Excited to start your programs! 
I would love audio over on the instructions. If that’s there, I didn’t hear it.

First time ever completing a home workout! Was pretty decent.

Shawneka

Great workout for someone with a little experience in calisthenics. Instructions (esp. on warm up) could be a little bit more detailed though.

Louisa

I'm new calesthenics and absolutely loved this workout! I pushed myself hard, so I felt like I had a good workout. I like that the focus was on form over reps!

I enjoy the guided stretches. I was so used to her YouTube videos where I was able to hear her voice. It can also be because I am doing the seven day trial.

Fabiana

First i was with your training on YouTube- it was great , after 3 months I’m here. Best

I found you on YouTube, tried a workout and really loved the way you teach. I’ve been working out for years, and like to try new things. I recently came across calisthenics and wanted to give it a shot. After having my little girl almost 5yrs ago, it’s been challenging to get my pre-baby body back, I feel this is the key!

Marisol

Esther

It‘s a bit repetitive, but overall good!

Chari

Need to get familiar with timer and app. Exercises were good

Edgar

I really needed something doable and at the same time hard enough to feel the difficulty. Thank you! It’s great material for beginners. I want to learn calisthenics so here I am!

Daniela

I definitely struggled a little having this be my first session but I feel good and am excited to see what else is in store

Amelia

Really enjoyed, had to adapt push ups to higher level, and I liked the timer!

Carol

Naomi

Good but I think I might be a little further than beginner, however I’m going to continue and add reps 😊 thanks

Emma

Great workout, i enjoyed the breakdown of each exercise. I personally would appreciate some audio to explain the exercises, reps.

Luisa

Stephanie

Great workout!! Easy movements for me to follow while burning those calories! Helps me not to get defeated too early on.

Really good. I’m already active and fairly athletic, but I havr knee injury and wanted to keep active without going to the gym. Lucy’s program seemed to be the right solution. This is day 1!

Really good, some hard. Still recovering from injuries to knee and lower back. Core is very weak.

Andrew

I’m new here, hoping to go from medium fit to held handstands and pull ups this year.

Gemma

The best trainer ever!!! Thank you for all you do!

Wendy

Im returning to exerciseafter a very long time off. I have done it all, but am very excited to focus (refocus) on calisthenics and functional movement. I really enjoyed the workout! Some things were a bit easy, but i know how to make things harder for myself. As other members have shared, I do wish it was one seamless video, with voice cues, countdowns, and a little more instruction, so that the workout flows better. Especially for the timed movements.

Suraiyah

Adaptations for push ups, audio instructions, guidance on how to use the app so the timer between the exercises is automatic

Rose

I just started to workout again after 3 pregnancys. And it was absolute perfect. Thanks so much ❤️🙏🏻

Anni

Cerys

Great workout! However, video / voice instructions so we don’t need to look at the screen + cool down would be nice. Thanks

Daria

Krizhalyn

I did 30secs of rest between each set because I wasn't sure, so it would be nice to have that clarified in the description. Other than that, this was great. Thank you!

Just the right amount for a beginner when it comes to body weight exercises, for the past 2 years I ve just been doing weights and always dreaded body weight but I love your routines especially for a chubby girl :)

Alzeena

Hanna

Michelle

Loved the workout just wish I had the option for a cool down please

Janine

Angela

Estaba bien, lo suficiente exigente como para empezar a ejercitarme

Maria

Ligita

Great first session, would have been good to have done cool down stretches included though 🙌

Laura Millward

Birgitte

I am so out of shape and was a bit fearful before the exercises but it felt really good! Might be that I found a way of training that really suits me 😊. Will definitely keep this going.

For this workout you will need:

- An incline surface (a suitable height for you to perform push ups)

Workout:

- Incline Push Ups 
- Reverse Alternating Lunge
- Back Extension
- Deadbugs 
- Iceskaters
-Tuck Hold

Repeat this circuit once to get your body ready and prepared for the workout ahead!

Arm Circles

Windmill

Hamstring Warm Up

Lying on your back, bend at the knees, and plant your feet into the floor.

Press into the floor with your feet to raise your hips, and squeeze your glutes at the top of the movement.

As you press, exhale gently to engage your abs, putting less pressure on your lower back.

Glute Bridge

Wrist Circles

Warm Up Circuit

Stand facing bench or sturdy elevated platform. Place hands on edge of bench or platform, slightly wider than shoulder width.

Position forefoot back from bench or platform with arms and body straight. Arms should be perpendicular to body. Keeping body straight, lower chest to edge of box or platform by bending arms.

Push body up until arms are extended. Repeat.

Incline Push Ups

Begin in a standing position with your hands in front of your chest. Look directly forward, keeping your chest up, with your feet shoulder-width apart. This will be your starting position.

Initiate the movement by taking a step to the rear, allowing your hips and knees to flex to lower your body. Contacting the back leg through only the ball of the foot, descend until your knee nearly touches the ground. Use a slow and controlled motion, paying special attention to proper mechanics and posture. The knee should stay in line with the foot, and the thoracic spine should remain neutral.

After a brief pause, return to the starting position by driving through the heel of the front leg to extend the knees and hips.

Perform this exercise by alternating the side you use.

Reverse Alternating Lunge

Lie on a mat on your stomach and straighten your legs behind you.

Place your elbows on the ground and slide your shoulders down.

Lift your upper back, pressing your hips into the mat. 

Lower to starting position and repeat for specified reps.

Back Extension

Lay with your knees bent at 90 degrees and feet off of the floor.

Reach your fingers toward the ceiling.

Glue your lower back to the floor.
 
From this position, reach opposite hand, and opposite foot our as far as you can without losing lower back contact to the floor, exhaling as you reach.

Return to the starting position and repeat on the opposite side.

Deadbugs

Use your arms to throw your weight to the side while you take a large step or jump landing on the leading legs only.

Make sure to keep your core engaged throughout the exercise and land on a bent knee to take the impact.

Iceskaters

Lie on your back and glue your lower back to the ground.

Bend your knees to 90 degrees and extend your arms out by your sides with palms facing upwards. 

Keep your core engaged, and imagine puling your belly button towards the ground (don't forget to breathe).

Tuck Hold

Week 1/Day 1 -  Full Body Workout

I really felt the burn and pushed myself 💪🏽

Alani

Andrea

Week 1/Day 2- Full Body Workout

The mountainclimbers were challenging but overall it was nice!

I found Day 2 more challenging and my leg muscles are still sore after 2 rest days. Still a great set of exercise!

I loved this workout but found the Mountain Climbers really hard to do. I kept looking at the video and reading the instructions but couldn't work out what I was doing wrong. I felt clunky! 😕

Week 1/Day 3 - Full Body Workout

Great exercises but I really enjoyed your work outs on YouTube where you give a bit of an intro to the exercises. I’d prefer a bit of being talked through the exercises initially rather than just reading it off the app

Olive

This one was challenging for sure! Did get a nice sweat going.

Great work out!! 🥳 I found it challenging but good

Week 2/Day 1 - Full Body Workout

Returning into training after a week having pretty spicy back pain. Loved it.

Julia

Would love to have a timer button on the Modified Side Plank. Otherwise excellent as usual.

Tony

Week 2/Day 3 - Full Body Workout

It's just to hot to workout. But I got it. It was cardio workout as well today 🥵

Week 3/Day 1 - Full Body Workout

Incredibly Challenging, especially those inch worms!

Great workout but a Timer Button on the timed exercises would really help.

Week 3/Day 2 - Full Body Workout

Katrina

Great Challenge, especially the wall sits!

Michele

Week 3/Day 3 - Full Body Workout

So challenging on a rainy day and after a night of restless sleep…..but I did it!

Second time through Weeks 3 and 4 and I'm still really  struggling! Muscles have disappeared with age. Still enjoying and persevering - I'll get there!

Week 4/Day 1- Full Body Workout

Took a week off for a family vacation….I feel like I didn’t miss a day! Same great challenge!

Tough one - really struggled with the planks; need to work on my arm strength!

Week 4/Day 2 - Full Body Workout

I did it!!! Thank you, Lucy, it was great! 😊 the walking burpees really are a game changer

Nathalie

It ‘‘twas wonderful! Thank you for these simple yet effective workouts!
