Hi Ruba and team! One exercise is missing from this day, the reverse lunge and lateral twist. There are only 4 exercises in the main circuit! The PDF home base 8 week guide includes this exercise (total of 5). I was wondering if this could be updated? Thanks for all your hard work!

3-5 rounds:
Lateral lunge with dumbbell lift
Plank with lateral arm raise 
Single leg deadlift to overhead press
In and out squat jump squats

-Start in standing position, feet hip width apart. Hold a dumbbell with both hands.
-Step out to a lateral lunge on right side, bringing dumbbell to outside of right knee.
-Step back to center,while bringing dumbbell up and overhead to your left. This is 1 rep. Complete 10-12 reps.

Lateral lunge with dumbbell lift - HB

-Start in a plank position.
-Keeping your core stable, slowly reach your left arm out to your side. Brace through the abs by pulling your navel to your spine. Hold this position for 2 seconds. If you feel too unstable, try regressing by placing your elbow on the ground.
-Keeping your torso stable, bring your arm back to the plank position. Do not round your back or twist your spine.
-Repeat this same motion on the other side, extending your right arm to your side. This counts as one rep.

Plank with lateral arm raise - HB

-Stand with your feet hip-width apart, holding a dumbbell in each hand.
-Shift your weight to your right foot and slowly hinge forward as you raise your left leg behind you so that your body forms a T, keeping your back straight and weights close to your legs.
-Return to upright position, but keep your left foot off the floor. Bend your knee and lift your left leg to hip-level while bending your elbows and pulling the weights in to your sides.
-Maintaining your balance, push the weights overhead. Slowly return to starting position. Complete 10-12 reps each side.

Single leg deadlift to overhead press - HB

-Start in a squat position, holding a weighted plate or dumbbell with both hands at chest height.
-Jump up, bringing feet together while pressing the dumbbell over head.
-Jump feet back out, lowering dumbbell and returning to squat position.

Have a right ankle injury from 5 years ago and week 2 into the program it had already started to fee stronger and more stable than before, where I couldn’t walk or stand for long periods of time due to the ankle’s weaken and inflamed ligament. Thanks so much Ruba! ❤️

I am still struggling with the burpees in this routine. However, I think I’m noticing muscle memory on legs already.

Hard. Very hard today. It seems like it’s pretty much always hard though lol. But i NAILED IT ! Physically it’s difficult but mentally ...it’s a huge battle. I am building a strong mindset. A strong discipline. Focused. Thank u Ruba

W2/D3 -HB

Not sure if my posture is wrong in a few of these positions but I felt some strange discomfort and had to cut this core circuit short. I’ll have to find a different core workout.

Plank twists and leg raises are 🔥 🥵😭 lol thanks

I thought it was the easiest circuit of the week.. but 5 rounds does it make it as hard as the others. Thanks Ruba !  i nailed it ! I am so proud of my perseverance 💪🏽

I do better at full body circuits i guess. I did my 5 rounds though, but i feel discouraged when i see that i have a weak core. That’s why i do your bonus hb on day 5, to get a strong core.
All week i nailed my workouts but my body is still a big issue in the mirror today i feel tired to look like that. I am disappointed to have failed my health/appearance to this point. Anyway, it will get better one day. Thanks for the program Ruba. Be blessed

Nailed it. It’s the easiest circuit for me though. Yes i sweat but to me it still easier.

(Idk why my workout of yesterday was not marked complete i did it . Maybe i quit without swiping to complete... but yesterday i was exhausted i did only 3 rounds.)

Thank you Ruba have a nice day

The only thing that was hard for me was to figure out how to complete a circuit. At the end I figure it out though. It was a good workout I enjoyed it.
