I didn’t like the exercises that included table exercises while hold on your hands.💓

I absolutely love it! You are so thorough. It’s exactly what I was looking for. Your detailed explanation of every move is awesome. I also love having a timer right there to use.  Thank you for making such a well structured program.

This workout was very challenging. As someone who injured themselves Powerlifting a few years ago, this is a quite the workout. It feels good, but burns so bad
