Sorry if my english isn’t very good :) 
The workout was absolutely good, it was the first time that i train with this type of series of reps but good sensations at the end ! 
The shower is gonna be nice 😂

Great workout! My intention with your workouts is to bulletproof my shoulders. Whether it be through pull ups or carrying things, I want to mitigate injury as much as possible. With this workout, I used really light dumbbells and I feel great.

It was nice but You have to open the video one after another automatically

Mostafa

Great balanced first workout which makes me excited for the next one! Question: Is there a way for the timer to go on automatically and for the workout set to change automatically when a set is completed, meaning the timer runs out? Also, is there a way to control the app via an apple watch?

Andy

This is probably one of the best home workout programs on this app! I am in relatively good shape and I was sweating like crazy! What a good burn!

Cal Lee

Litttt I’ve been training couple years already I stop some months ago and I’m back but this program I didn’t Sweat like this in so many years and I feel my training thank you for your services SR 🫡🫡💪🏽🔥

Herman

Perhaps highlighting why we are doing each workout. Other than that, great!

Alan

It was an awesome workout. I think I had a bit of a hard time understanding reps and sets in the beginning of the warm up. I ended up doing 15x15 instead of 15 individual reps but I caught on after that!

Hace 4 meses que no entrenaba, me cansé bastante pero hay que retomar de cualquier manera, gracias por los videos motivacionales que subes a Instagram 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻

I really enjoy the tempo and how easy it is to follow along. Especially with you demonstrating each exercise. Looking forward to the next 7 weeks and all your exercises

It was cool, where there were two cycles of exercise that didn't bother me, which I'm very happy about. Thank you !)))

Definitely eye opening, I’ve always weight lifted and this workout made me realize the difference maybe between power and actual strength. Definitely tested my muscle endurance even with low weight!

Challenging but not to the point of death, great workout! 💪🏻💪🏻

Joshua

the exercises should automatically switch from one to the other and the seconds should move automatically according to the exercises.  in general the exercises are effective.

It was great. Not sure if it’s already a thing (maybe I overlooked it), or in the works possibly, but I think for users like myself who are trying to track macros/calories burned would enjoy being able to track the calories burned in each workout. 🤷🏼‍♀️ but loved the workout and details!

Missing reps or durations in spots. Also would be nice to have what muscle to focus on in the description of exercises. Petty stuff but just trying to help.
