W2/D7 Squats + Arms

Brutal, can’t move my arms and shoulders 🥵

This program isn’t made for thick girls. I can’t even  finish the exercises. This is for skinny chicks who think they’re fat. Disappointed.

W5/D1 Squats + Abs

Those sprints!!!! Sweaty AF! Feeling pretty damn good

Transitions could be better between exercises. Also, have the modifier be up front so that beginners can follow.

W6/D1 Squats + Abs

Transitions can be more fluid. Too many backups. Just having 1 advance and 1 beginner backup would work out the best (like how Jillian Michaels does).
