I’m starting to feel so much stronger this week and this program has been inspiring me to try other skills that I have never been able to do! Thank you so much for this it has been life changing

It was great!! I was cramming the workout in on my lunch break so I couldn’t do the scheduled cooldown but I made sure to stretch and walked home :) you weren’t kidding about this week being the hardest to get motivated mentally. This was really really hard to get going for, but I’m so proud of myself after doing it. I actually got 3/4 of the dead hangs for the whole time for the first time ever!! Thank you so much Michelle

Great start to the course. Would love more mobility/stretches at the end, especially for the upper body we just worked out.

Brandon

W1/D1 Pull-Up

Decided to skip the last cool down sets, because I ran out of time

Going for round 2 of the program 💪 really hard to get out of bed this morning haha but I’m happy I got it done!

Kendrey

Yaba daba doo! These workouts complete you! 

Because of the curling I've done today, I can carry more groceries to my doorstep in one trip! Thank you, Michelle for solving my first world problems 🫡💪

Leg emoji! 🦵

Vince

W1/D2  Pull-Up

Great way to start the weekend! Loved it!

Felt good but couldn’t really do 10 reverse push up mby 8-9. And hanging was barely 30 sek😅

W1/D3 Pull-Up

It felt really good, but I wish I could check my notes from the last workout without exiting so that I know which weights I used

Georgia

W1/D4 Pull-Up

Couldn’t do the Row my stamina is really out of shape but would like some more overall legs exercises and abs

What a fun day today! I was still super sore from yesterday, but it's actually quite a nice feeling to workout over the soreness. Feeling strong!! Though for the last meter blast at the end, I exchanged it for a mix of some weighted squat movements and jumping jacks! A bit of weights and cardio for the end of it! 🏋‍♀️💕

Chloe

Maybe you have this feature and I just haven’t found it yet - but it would be helpful to have alternative workouts/modifications for when a gym doesn’t have the exact equipment or it’s out of range for us at the moment

Burt

W1/D5 Pull-Up

I can’t get over how much strength I’ve gained after just one week! Loving it so far

Felt could but would like the workouts to be a bit longer

Those dead hangs always get my arms so fatigued, but I know it's gonna we worth it in the end! So grateful that I was able to complete week 1 fully! And what a great start to week 2! Keep going strong! 💪🌸

W2/D1 Pull-Up

Felt really good, could’ve been a little bit longer, mby a bit more stretch at least cause now I always have to fallow up with flexibility but it doesn’t always match with the muscles I’m working out in the program

Those diamond push-ups are something 👌 Haha, finally finding a rhythm there 😄

W2/D2  Pull-Up

Körde ba ett varv på sista fick ont om tid

Still my favorite workout! 🥰 Love to see how much my pull-ups have progressed! At this point, I've moved on to assisted pull-ups! I can do two full pull-ups unassisted, which I'm sooo grateful for!! Lord willing, I'll make more progress as time continues! 💪

W2/D3 Pull-Up

Things are starting to get easier!! 💪🏻❤️

I did this one over two days because I ran out of time- but very glad that I completed it! Whoohoo!

W2/D4 Pull-Up

Half way there! I’m honestly pretty proud of myself for not giving up 😊

Sweating!! I like to alternate between really heavy weights and lighter weight depending on the move- to work on strength vs. endurance. Love to see my progress grow! Even just to see how I'm beginning to lean out is exciting. Great workout today! ✨️

Really tired today and still struggling with the push-ups...would be great if there was a push-up challenge too. :) Loved the workout! 😁
