Great! My goal was to get through 5 rounds but only completed 4. So will keep getting after it 💪🏿

Jennie

Carla

Challenging, but still doable. I finished this workout drenched in sweat, breaking the workout into shorter exercises made the workout more interesting, and made it easier to give each one my all.

I hate you in a good way, I’m on the floor now 😃😃

Rafidah

I liked it! Hard but not to where I want to give up

Mariya Alexander

Sooooo tough!!! If you really sprint hard this is killer. Only got 3 rounds cause I was DYING

Annie

This HIIT work was AMAZING!! I couldn’t finish all 5 sets in the 20 min AMRAP so I timed myself to see how long it would take me to finish and ended at 22 mins. Looking forward to pushing myself harder next time to get it in that 20 mins with same weights or heavier 💪

Megan

Well that was tough but a fantastic challenge. Completed ok but definitely advanced. Loved it though.

W1/D5 DAY 5: 20 min HIIT

Nice low equipment workout! Loved the format of the app. Highly visual and allowed me to keep listening to my podcast.

Alison

Apoorva

THE BEST app and workout!! I love how she has videos in the format of reels for each exercise, has a place to record sets and reps + notes, and has a rest time that even follows as you move to the next set of exercises. I like how she has a timer beep when it’s time to hop back in and how there isn’t any talking! Just movement with written instructions! That  is a game changer and something I didn’t know I appreciate! 1st day of my trial and I’m definitely buying!!

W1/D1 DAY 1: Lower Body

The wall assisted moves for hand stand were super challenging for me, but I am motivated to keep trying!

Meiling

Another buster! I was a tad confused on the straddle wall exercise. I didn’t know if I should rotate my shoulder or try and shrug. It was challenging but a great core and shoulder stability workout.

Love the core mixed in with handstands. Makes core less monotonous and painful.

Shino

W1/D2 DAY 2: Handstands & Core

Great 3rd day workout!! Legs are burning!!

Killer, but love the sequences. I  also like that it’s without music — I can really focus on my body this way. That being said, voice-overs on certain form techniques could be helpful. Overall love your energy and your workouts :)
