Description: W1/D2 Beginner Bootcamp - Core / Abs

This workout felt short but now that I’ve finished it I feel amazing and strong, such a good feeling! ☺️

Tara

Great short workout, just what I need to get back into exercise

Andriy

Maame 

Ignacio

When there is equipment involved its harder for me to follow, I have to improvise (treadmill).

Amelie

Owen

Mack

The workout was amazing and coming in to week 1 day 2 is kicking my butt. #YouCanDoIt

Travis Noble

Found a Little too easy and Not enough focused on the Core, But otherwise a Great Workout!

Lissy

Lovely! Had a great time, feeling fresh and alive!

Drew

Jewelee

The felt great and challenging all at the same time.

Jessica

Hard for me but I feel like I’ve accomplished something at the end

Michelle Jacobson

Fireeee! The rest is perfectly timed to make sure you challenge yourself but knowing each exercise is only 30s is enough to keep pushing you mentally too.

Ellen

Carrie Koester

Kiara

Zuzana

I love this session! I would love to have the excercises that have to be done by side (like side planks) to have an individual timer for each side, so it's easier to do the second side without having to count or calculate time

MARIANA

Himara

From a perspective of a woman who wants to get fit after birth- some exercises are way to hard for a real „beginner“ :)

Janina

Heidi

Great my arms aren’t used to it tho 😅

Jimmy Newtron

I feel a little more sick today, but I expected that with it being all about abs. The sit-ups we're difficult because I needed something to hold my feet down. 😂 Otherwise, very good workout and proud of myself for getting out of bed to complete it.

Renee

My knees were aching so I utilized this workout for my last Summer Sculpt workout! It was an awesome and very thorough ab workout! Will definitely come back to it again!!

Lindsey

Hollow rock and flutter kicks attempted to murder me, but somehow made it through!
To others who have zero stamina and strength - if I can do it (with long breaks) you can do it!

Aleya

It’s crazy doing all of these exercises all over again with my sister and looking at my old comments. These exercises are so easy now 🥰

Jordyn

Started over since I finished the boot camp and it still kicked my ass

Leeza Mihalyo

Tapped out of a few early, but it still felt manageable!

Catherine

What is hallow rack? The workout might be a little higher than beginner.

Olivia

Getting back to fitness after a long break. First time I've done a core workout in ages. Thanks for this! It was great

Adrienne

Ive been on the bigger side gor a few years now, and today I decided to make this workout Only using pants and sports bra. I realize that even though i am bigger, i can see my muscles working. I am amazed. Thank ypu for this opportunity

Hi Michelle, it’s only day 2 and I can tell this is something I’ll want to do long term! May I give a little suggestion? Could we have an option to have a little countdown, when we tap the timer, before we start the workout? I find myself tapping the little countdown and quickly getting into exercises like side plank, where I need a liiiiiitle bit more time to get into. Wanna get the full 30sec 😉 another suggestion, could we have a little bell at the halfway point? It could be useful for things like tricep stretch or things that require to change sides. So I don’t have to keep staring at my tiny phone screen. Much love for you and the team ❤️

Alicia

Day 2 of Bootcamp was challenging!! Core is my kost neglected area of strength. Once again left me feeling weak and strong at the same time. Great variety of exercises and super thorough. Thank you Michelle!!

Isabella

Explanation of the correct form to do a side plank 
And each exercise should also mention the target muscle groups so that customer knows that they are doing it right

Yasha

The mobility reverse table table was too hard on my wrists and I felt it more in my glutes than my abs. I think it would be better to have 1 group of exercises repeat 3x not 2 groups  since this is for beginners.

Christina

Holy shit my abs are sore this is really kicking my ass but this is what I need! Thank you Mitchelle I can’t thank you enough for this!

Grayson 

This core workout is a bit too difficult for beginners

Anneleen

These workouts give me energy throughout the day!

Kristen

Love it...it was hard but I have hard time with sit ups

Julia Cawthon

Angie

This Workout absolutely destroyed me! 🤩

Lisa

I realized I never really worked out my abs. Thank you!

Miriam

Kicked my butt again. Wanted to quit half way through but I didn't!

Kate

A nice workout to end the day. I know I'll feel it in the morning. Man the hollow hold is harder than I thought when you add rocking back and forth. Glad for that cool down though.

Amanda

It was good today, it was difficult to find the motivation but I feel like I accomplished something after this! I found certain little features which made this workout more enjoyable and smooth! I did feel a little sore after yesterday so I felt like it was challenging enough but not so bad I had to stop multiple times!

Nataly

Rebecca

Better now that I understand the app a little more, still don't know how (if it's actually a thing) to just automatically go to the next exercise. Like the actually exercise and cool down tho

W1/D2 Beginner Bootcamp - Core / Abs

I'm dying and I'm sweating buckets. Thanks! 💃

Clara

Some moves definitely way harder than others! I enjoyed the cool-down stretches at the end. I nearly gave up part way through because I just don’t have the strength to do some of them properly yet, and I felt sort of silly, but gave myself a minute, and reminded myself I’m not going to be able to change that if I don’t push through, and I did it!! :D

Nice stretch but I kinda hate how much more flexible Michelle is in comparison 🤸‍♂️

A nice little break from the core excises.

Victoria

That one felt particularly refreshing. What did everyone else think of this one?

Love this and excited I finally did all the push-ups regularly

W2/D1 Beginner Bootcamp - Upper Body

I love how most of these exercises end in child’s pose. One of my favorite yoga positions

It was great I just noticed that I wasn’t doing the full workout and wasn’t going back and doing it 3 times when it said to.

Them jump squats and lunges kicked my butt, but amazing as always

I am very sad that this is the end.. Like the end of a good book.

Wow!! I can’t believe Week 3 Day 5 is here! I’ve progressed so much in these 3-4 weeks of Beginner Bootcamp and was able to lose 10 pounds! I feel confident, can visually see my muscles, and feel happier. Onto the next program! 😅🔥
