I am not as flexible as I thought so I took it really easy.

The stretching felt really good

W1/D6 Active rest day

I wished more notes on which muscles should be activated

Carolina

I think you should add modifiers. For example, for girlies like me who have the balancing finesse of newborn fawn, I think we should be able to use resistance bands in lieu of the barbells for hip thrusts. Other than that, killer workout!

W1/D1 Legs (Glutes & Hamstrings)

It hurt so good! Excited to see results in the long run 🤩

Forward crunches don't help at all and side crunches make me feel so awkward

W1/D2 Active rest day

Maybe change the order number of arm stuff. By the end i couldn't do the pushups unassisted

Great shock to the muscles my bench is usually around 75 and by the time I got to bench press I couldn’t even finish the last set at 45lb!!

W1/D3 Push day

Victoria

W1/D4 Legs (Glutes & Quads)

It was a pretty good workout my glutes 😁 , I think legs to bar was a little too hard to start out so I just did some leg lifts instead 🫡 perdóname jefa 😔

Anthony

Every single workout I come out like jelly. I even had trouble driving because my muscles were trembling so much.

Virginia

didn’t know you could have an adductor pump or whatever lmao 😅😅

Haley

W1/D5 Extras & Accessories

I couldn’t for the life of me do a single pull up or chin up 🥲 so I modified it with push machines that targeted those muscles and finished the rest of the workout like normal 😁 thanks for the great routines girly I appreciate you

W1/D7 Pull day

I’ve been bored and not feeling my workouts lately but this was definitely better than what I’ve had before 😁

Rachael

I don’t usually do hip thrusts but I enjoyed doing them today. I also couldn’t get the form down for the sumo and conventional so I skipped it :P
