Today, I tried to focus on leaving out more rests in between my sets and I finished the workout so quick! I am underestimating myself! Congrats to everyone who made it to the end of week 3! 👏🏻🎉

Progression is such a cool thing. I remember when I would struggle a lot with dead bugs- having to take one or two breaks between reps since it was so painful for my core. And now here I am, crushing the rounds with no breaks!! Of course with pain still, but I'm able to push through! 😂💪 Feeling great today!! 💕

This workout was a gauntlet for both arms and legs! Fantastic workout, Michelle! I just got done with the Summer Sculpt challenge recently, and it's good to be back in Home Shred!

It was a great workout! I’m not gonna lie, it was really hard! I had to have breaks a lot but I’m excited to get stronger!

Lauren

First workout was great! Hard for me to do mountain climbers because of my wrists... Would be great if there were alternate exercises offered (even if it was just high knees or jumping jacks) to still get the bit of cardio and our blood pumping 🥰

Becca

W1/D1 Home Shred

This felt sooooo good (and intense) but in a really good way. Also I’ve been using hard cover Harry Potter books as my weights LOL

Karin

Michelle

W1/D2 Home Shred

Was not expecting the struggle on the abs after yesterdays workout but pushed through. Took awhile lol But completed. Can’t wait to continue on

Jonathan

I can always count on these workouts to seriously SWEAT!

Hannah Zaragoza

W1/D3 Home Shred

This is my second time around doing the home shred challenge and I feel sooo much stronger!

those tri push ups were so hard 😭😭😭

It was fun, but I still can't manage to do a good push-up.

Emily

Those push-ups got me shaking!! 😭💪 My arms are feeling like jelly atm, especially from being sore and tight from yesterday! But I feel like a powerhouse knowing that I completed this sweaty workout!! Super rewarding! ✨️

My workout was rough. Didn't eat enough so i was nauseous and had a headache which caused me to modify some exercises. Not by favourite but it's all about the journey.

Rachelle

A lot of most days is arm workout and it gets demotivating when the number of reps is so high

Maria

Starting week 2 headstrong this time! I can just feel myself getting stronger 🥰❤️

W2/D1 Home Shred

This was like the perfect mix between legs abs and a bit of arms I loved it 😭

I loved the balance between strength training and cardio in this one! The weights got me sweating, then those squat jumps made my heart rate spike!! Feeling good today, what an awesome start to my week! 🏋‍♀️💕

I almost stopped being friends with you as soon as you brought in the Squat Jumps. Kidding! 🤣 I love the Donkey Kicks since they also reinforce the use of your core during the workout. The balance of isolated and compound workouts here are great!

W2/D2 Home Shred

Back to Home Shred now that the push-up program is over! I feel stronger now!

I tried heavier weights at the gym today since I maxed out my dumbbells at home! 💪🏻🔥Feeling super accomplished

I always love the weight sections of these workouts! 😭💪 It makes me feel so strong and unstoppable! I've really missed working out like this. I've been on and off with my workouts, but I'm trying to fix that! Lord willing, I'll keep going and crush these workouts! 💕

W2/D3 Home Shred

This workout is so empowering. 💪 Especially when you reach what you thought was your limit, and end up continuing past it! So accomplishing!! ✨️

This one is always too tough for me. For the last two sets, two rounds of each is plenty 😅

W2/D4 Home Shred

It’s crazy how fast I’m able to do the diamond push-ups now. I remember in the very beginning of MKFit I could barely do 1-2! Feeling on top of the world today 💪🏻😇

My arms are absolutely tense and sore rn, but it's so worth it. 💪✨️

For most of the push-up sections, I had to modify to regular push-ups rather than the fancy ones here (for me preferably to build my arm strength first). Otherwise, everything was both fun & challenging! I love the boost of energy it gives me.

It's all about making the time and putting in the work. Some days it's hard for me to simply start, but when I do, I never regret a second. 💕

Had to modify the t-push ups again to my knees. Too many reps for my shaky arms especially after yesterday.. also a resistance loop around biceps have been helping building my strength 💪🏼💪🏼
