I had to make some modifications and pauses, but I did it. I'm so proud of how much stronger I am now. ❤ thanks to people like you I can be my best and at my own pace
Girl I’m 34, I stop working out regularly at 24 when my mom died. We worked out together every day, so it was heartbreaking and depressing going to the gym without her, she loved lifting weights and passed that to me😁I would start working out again with work out programs at home, but nothing motivated me and encouraged me to keep going. Then I found u, not only are your workouts great, but u make me want to keep going! 🥲 thank you so much! 🥰😁 much love!
Dear Caroline, I can no longer live without you! I am turning 46 this month and I have the best body I've had in my entire life. I was never this in shape going to other trainers or the gym, and I can do it from my own home! You are the best!
So excited to give this one a go! I’ve been with Caroline just shy of a year now. If you’d told me a year ago that one day I would have abs, and that I could survive 20 continuous minutes of ab work, I never would have believed it. This advent calendar is such an awesome Christmas present, but Caroline gives us the gifts of encouragement and empowerment all year long. Happy Day 2 Girvanators, let’s rock this! P.S. Who else is loving the holiday colour scheme of these workouts🎁🎄?
Happy 1year fitness anniversary! Congrats for the hard work and the big commitment! 👏👏👏Training with Caroline improved our lives ❤️❤️ have a great December ❄️⛄
Hi Maggie. What a lovely comment so true Caroline's gifts are amazing and last all year. Well done for being part of this superb community and committing to your fitness. Caroline's ab routines are awesome.
Hi Maggie...lovely comment! I think we have all gained so much in strength and fitness with Caroline and isn’t it fantastic when you can really see and feel your progress! I just loved today’s session...and as you say...the colour schemes and the music and video production are just so superb in this series! Have a lovely day! Matthew
I feel that Maggie! I too am so proud of my growing strength and comfort. I love the positivity here, and of course the color coordination. Caroline, blessings to you this holiday season and thank you!!
🤣 I'll join you! I was literally just thinking about how I've done so much core work (given not with Caroline until recently), yet, I still have 0 core strength coming into this very challenging workout!
Dear Caroline Claus, this year we have been good, we have done our squats, crunches and even our Bulgarian lunges. If it is not much too ask, I would really want for Christmas one of your plyometric workouts. 🎅🎁🎄. Thanks a lot. C.
Excellent Carolina. Your comment made me smile and chuckle 😁👍. What super start to the day 🙂. Enjoy the abs workout. And 🙏🙏 Caroline Claus delivers what you've so beautifully asked for. 👋
Love how we are going with lighter weights and focussing on control. The muscles are under tension and form is given due diligence. Absolutely love working my core. Let's smash it. Thank you Caroline for such an amazing Christmas gift!
I know Shruthi. Light weights but the intensity is real. I'm learning how to increase my time under tension and really improve my form. Have an awesome session.
@@wendiweramundi2923 completely agree. Just finished. My god the shorter rests and progressing from lower abs to upper and then oblique. Quite a test. The muscles feel WORKED! 💪 Hope you have a fantastic workput too!
Hi Shruthi...yes I’ve always enjoyed workouts with lighter weights and really focusing on reps and form and endurance! You’ll so much enjoy today’s abs and core session...it’s a superb workout...brilliantly planned with great exercises! Have a lovely day! Matthew
@@wendiweramundi2923 Hi Wendi...yes very true...building endurance and getting really good form in doing exercises is so important! Have a lovely day! Matthew
@@matthewalmond8274 true Matthew. Loved how it went from one section of the core to the next. Caroline is such a brilliant coach! Hope you are having a great day after a lovely session!
This is brutal. I only did 10 mins of the video. I will be saving this and doing it every time I do core. Goal is to be able to all the exercises without stopping!
Im 13 years old and was looking for an ab workout that actually challenged me, and I found it, I did one of her 10 minute abs before this and towards the end of this one I was ready to collapse 😂 so thankyou for this workout!
Hi Caroline...hi everyone...just finished this fantastic abs and core workout! I really enjoyed it...superbly planned as always and I loved the choice of exercises! I love the colours and the music...and everything about the video really! It’s going to be a lovely cold sunny morning here....so rather than do cardio add on...once I’ve had something to eat and the sun has come up properly I shall go for a run! Thank you once again, Caroline and have a lovely day everyone! Matthew
Good morning Matthew! You always motivate me with your kind comments. I just saw the notification and I am ready to do this workout after my walk. The weather is so cold here and I prefer to enjoy the sun now, because in a few hours, it is going to disappear. Have a nice day!
Hi Matthew, enjoy your run🏃i really love those short intense workout with Caroline 🙏 always a great vibe in each thing that she is creating.we are blessed🙏here the weather is really nice and warm although it was raining just a bit.i am planning to ride later on.enjoy your day🌷
Hi Matthew, a run in a cold sunny day is just perfect! Enjoy the cold air on the cheeks and have fun! We are so spoiled by Caroline! See you tomorrow ❄️☀️
Dear Caroline Girvan - THANK YOU and Happy Holidays to you and your family. I've been following you for just under a year and this is the first time I'm "in sync" with you releasing workouts. What a treat that you are giving us for Advent! My family does an advent calendar every year with activities that we do together as a family. But this advent calendar is just for me!
So happy to be getting back into Caroline's workouts after a spot of ill health. These shorter workouts are just perfect for anyone who wants to (gently) get back into shape after a break
OMG I’ve been looking for the hardest 20 minute ab workout on TH-cam, and after trying all of the top ones, this is by far the most challenging. The exercises + the short amount of rest time makes this one exceptional. Love it, thank you for making this one! It’s my goal to complete it without needing to stop.
I just love your core workouts…they are creative, intense, quick with a punch & this looks like a brilliant burn for the core!! I’m excited to see what the mystery workout will be on Friday!! Let’s engage & embrace the burn 🔥
Morning Devansh...so very true...you took the words right out of my mouth! Caroline’s abs and core workouts are always so brilliant...and this just looks so good! Let’s get ready for that unique Caroline ab burn! Have a great workout! Matthew
I really like these 20 minute workouts. Seems like I'm getting in and getting it done and no time to think about stopping. Then I can get on with my day. :)
Hi Kathleen...so true! I just love Caroline’s core and abs routines! Today’s is brilliant...you will enjoy it so much and your core will feel so good at the end! Have a lovely day! Matthew
Loved this workout. Exactly what I wanted: a little bit longer, and variety to hit all the muscles. 8 months ago I had very weak abs.. I started to train with you Caroline, and now I've completed this 20min in 1 go! I have become so much stronger and convident thanks to you!! Thank you for all that you give us, i'm very greatfull 👏👏
What a great ab workout for this morning Caroline! Loved it! I usually workout on my lunch break or later in the day, but in December I'm waking up with you as the workouts are short and sweet.
Hey everyone, just finished this workout, felling great to start my day 🥰 thank you Caroline for everything you do, your programs changed my life, and what a great idea with this calendar, it’s so motivating 🤩
Hi Katja...wasn’t this such a great start to the day...I loved it! Lovely words about Caroline...hasn’t she changed the lives of so many! Just brilliant! Have a lovely day! Matthew
I am a huge fan of Caroline's workouts and her Epic programs, and it would be great to have more of those 20 minute pieces, so busy people like myself could enjoy the in the middle of the week, and not just on weekends, when there is more free time. Thank you again!
Loved this workout and the ab burn 🔥 was real!!! I’m so thankful that Caroline is giving us the present of her presence with us in our fitness journey. So thankful for everything she does!
For abs & core, I love classes with dumbbells best of all so I really enjoyed this upload today. I flipped things around and did the Christmas cardio first. I remember doing that last year and really enjoying it. So much upbeat Christmas music in it that I had not heard before so I found myself dancing out a few moves here and there! Caroline knows how to do a really entertaining and varied cardio class where we move in all directions…lots of yoga type moves, plyo, core, and other fun stuff. Til tomorrow!
Hi Alison...wasn’t this a great addition to our Advent calendar! I really enjoyed it! And Christmas cardio is brilliant too isn’t it! But it was such a nice morning here that instead of Christmas cardio I went out for a run in lovely cold sunshine! Hope you have a great day...see you tomorrow! Matthew
abs and core is always the hardest day for me, but proud of myself for getting through it!! loving these holiday workouts :) thank you as always Caroline!
A solid core workout today! Really took it slow and tried to focus on that form. Definitely felt some shoulder soreness / activation from yesterday towards the end of the workout! Looking forward to seeing what's up tomorrow!
You should do more of these. I personally love separate abs training, and not so much full body. I like to separate legs, abs, etc. And this video is actually really effective.
OH GOODNESS, you are a little present to me every single day going through to Christmas. You have NO IDEA how much this means to me, Caroline. Your workouts give me the fizz and energy to make it through each day - you’re a sparkle to start each and every one. THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart, I am SO grateful. Blessings from Barb 🇨🇦
I’m 20 weeks pregnant and HEAVILY modified this one. Did a lot of my own thing but I showed up, I feel great, and I got stronger. Thank you Caroline for all of your incredible work and for keeping us strong through all the seasons ❤️
Thank you Caroline for creating such great workouts! No need for a gym membership or home gym. Just a set of dumbbells and you supply the motivation! Thanks again!🌺
Feeling a bit rusty after a break of 2 months; this seems like the perfect program to ease back into things. Thx Caroline, this series is great to do again 1 year later 🎉
I loved the combination of bodyweight and weighted abs. Dead bug is one of my absolute favorite ab exercises! I completed this after day 44of the epic 3 program.
Whew, this one left my abs CRYING 🔥🔥🔥 I had to take extra breaks after halfway, but it gave me opportunity to see where I can improve 💪🏾 Thanks Caroline!
As a mother of 3 young children and very little time to exercise.... I can NOT begin to explain the JOY I get when I come to your page and see 20 minute (& 30 minute) workouts!!!!!!!!!
Tried this workout for the first time today and I work out regularly, but oh my god…This workout is insane! I keep saying Caroline you’re not a human! You’re a machine girl! Loved it ❤
This was a great one! I am so happy to be doing these workouts as a way to get back on track. Commenting to keep myself accountable and let others know it’s never too late to jump back in! :)
Hi Priyanka...wasn’t this a great workout...and this is going to be another superb series I am Sure! No...it’s never too late to jump back in or to start out! So glad you are back into the workouts! See you tomorrow! Matthew
This workout for me was magnificent, I do your abs video all the time, I try to do ten to 15 minutes everyday, so when you drop this one it was right on time. Thank you Caroline you always amaze us with you skills and talents. 💕💕💕
I was told about you from my Weight Watcher's Connect group who know all about you. I made the statement that I was too old to do it. I'm 61 and turning 62 December 28th and another said no, you aren't the oldest one here and that I could do it. I think she is 70 years old. Awesome! SO GLAD I FOUND YOU ON HERE!!! 🙂 A big THANK YOU!!!
Absolutely love these little daily gifts it makes me grin to see them come in…the shoulders were killer despite the short time frame…I have no doubt my core will be feeling a little less Like a bowl full of cherries and more Merry and bright!!!! Thank you for always being a constant light!!! ✨ 🌟 ✨
Hi Alicia...brilliant comment....your core will feel so merry and bright...and strong and well worked at the end of this! What a brilliant session! As you so rightly say...Caroline is a constant light in the lives of so many people! Have a lovely day! Matthew
@@matthewalmond8274 thank you Matthew I can’t wait doing it now!! I hope you had a wonderful day and thank you for also being a source of positivity ✨😊
Love that I can do these videos right when they are released! They come out 9 pm my time zone, which is perfect timing! Caroline, you programmed a fantastic workout in a short period of time. Thank you!
“The lady in Red”, has smashed it again! Super WO, had time to add on your 20min triceps, feel great thank you so much gorgeous lady! You are bringing amazingness to this December ! Have a great day Caroline and everyone!🌹
I actually was not in the mood to work out and was giving myself excuses to not do it but after seeing your upload I thought -- it's just 20 minutes, what have I got to lose? And, as always, I feel better afterwards! Thanks, Caroline! Going to comment on all your December videos for accountability! 🎄
I love your short workouts so much caroline!!! These workouts are so effective given that they aren't that long. I'm in high school and have absolutely no time or energy to make time for excersise. But these short ones are just perfect!! Thank you so much for providing these workouts to us!! ❤️❤️🙏🙏
I am using this as complementary for Iron but this series, it seems to me a bit overlooked, and it stands on its own like a charm. Thank you Caroline, see you all guys on Sunday!
Its since long I have done a dedicated abs and core!! Looking forward to do this today.. Definitely this is going to set my abs on fire🔥 Thank you very much Caroline for this another brilliant workout!! Love this red outfit..Have a wonderful day Caroline and everyone!!
Wow this was HARD. First I was like "20min isn't that long", but I couldn't finish most of the exercises because it was so tough. Anyone able to keep up must have abs of steel. I'm definitely going to feel this tomorrow
Thank you for a quick and effective workout. Got me back on track this Monday. I love all your videos. Thank you for helping people get healthier and fitter.
@@matthewalmond8274 hola Matthew, el trabajo para diciembre es fenomenal me encanta el tiempo de duración porque se adapta a este mes de tantas actividades, abrazos
I got here on time! 🤩 Now I'm off to complete this workout 💪🏻 Done ✅✅✅ There were still some moves that are difficult but I'm happy that some have become a little easier 😁 Thanks, Caroline! ❤️
Hi....so very true...and Caroline’s abs and core workouts are simply the best! What brilliant planning has gone into today’s session! Aren’t we having such a fantastic adventure! Have fun with today’s workout! Matthew
So happy to see and experience this video. I have been a.grateful follower of Caroline’s upper body workouts since I discovered her after COVID lockdown from the gym. During the same time I have found Pilates inspired ab workouts to be most effective for my body. I think Caroline nailed it in this video and I would love to get more. Also want to do a shout out to her awesome production team. You guys get it better than I have seen it. The halfway, finisher, and % complete are great workout companions. CG is my favorite. Thanks to all who make it happen!
This is all such a great news. I have been picking and choosing older workouts but now I will truly have some structure back. Thank you so much Caroline and best wishes for a happy holiday season to you and your family
Started today doing your workouts for the very first time after had my daughter two years ago and gained so much weight. Lost myself and depressed to see myself in the mirror how far I became. I know is gonna be a long journey to be back at my original weight just need more encouragement but I love your videos thank you!
This one was awesome i really feel the burn, because i dont even remember last time working on my abs😁 and i really feel this shoulders from yesterday🙈 Thank you Caroline!❤
I had to take a 15 second break here and there. I always notice that my core have become a little stronger, I can focus on bettering my form now. This felt amazing! Really hard, but rewarding!
same here! but with Caroline you don't feel guilty taking pauses where you need to. you just feel empowered completing the workout and getting stronger each session!
for me one of the best abs videos 🖐 because it was over 20 minutes, because weights and plank were included . Through your support dear Caroline, I got a defined abs that I am proud of 💕and I really learned to press my lower back into the mat! 👍🏼 and yes I had a lot of fun with this longer ab workout. 💯
Second time around in the 🎄 program, and I'm loving it as much as the first! (Maybe more because I am stronger.) 😉 Thank you again, Caroline! 🤶🎅❤️🙌 -Angela
Same! Yesterday I was thinking "Where is Caroline... maybe i should do that christmas program again..." I have been doing EPIC 2 again and just finished last week. We are definitely stronger than last year!
I'm pretty confident in my ab strength, but I should've known a Caroline Girvan ab day would be on another level. Definitely felt the burn on those straight leg bicycles.
Thank you for this workout. I can see immediate changes on my stomach. It's not as bloated as before. And I love that you added cooling down routine in the end.
Lovely day, I love training abs! This one will be on my list. Currently, I'm doing EPIC I and, after having finished all the other series, it's great to enjoy it. I'm using the advent series as add-ons. Thanks, Caroline. 🧡
Hi Vylia...me too...I just love training abs! Today’s session was so good! Well done on doing epic 1 plus these workouts as add ons! Isn’t epic 1 a fantastic series too! Have a lovely day! Matthew
@@matthewalmond8274 Yes! I postponed it last year and then got caught with EPIC II and decided to go for it. But now, after EPIC II, Heat, III, and all the mini-series, I wanted to go back to basics and enjoy EPIC I. It's fantastic, I love feeling my strength increased during all the year, too. Have a lovely day, too! :)
@@vylia I started with Epic 2 and just finished Epic Heat. Because I missed Epic 1 I think I might do it before 3. I’m sooo behind everyone and she just keeps coming out with more. Caroline’s amazing!!
@@nikkijohnson983 Oh no, don't worry, you're not behind of anybody but ahead of yourself 😊. My favourite so far is EPIC III as a whole, but there are so many good trainings that I think I can put all of them in the same EPIC bag and just choose. What I like the most is the progress, like being able to do something I couldn't before, or holding more seconds a super hard movement. All those little achievements are what make Caroline's method really EPIC. I'm glad you're enjoying it!
There is no word to describe Carolina she is a wonderful human and always provide unique work out free of charge for all people well being and good health. Millions thanks Carolina
I had to make some modifications and pauses, but I did it. I'm so proud of how much stronger I am now. ❤ thanks to people like you I can be my best and at my own pace
Yea this is no joke. I had to take breathers! Good job girl! You’re not alone!

Thank you Caroline for creating such great workouts! No need for a gym membership or home gym. Just a set of dumbbells and you supply the motivation! Thanks again!🌺
Feeling a bit rusty after a break of 2 months; this seems like the perfect program to ease back into things. Thx Caroline, this series is great to do again 1 year later 🎉
I'm doing the same thing! It's tough to get back into the swing of things after a long break. But, We've got this!
@@fionadunlop3648 I'm getting back into it after a week of illness!
Loved it! 20 mins of torching the abs was just what I needed for active rest day. Thank you Caroline!!
I loved the combination of bodyweight and weighted abs. Dead bug is one of my absolute favorite ab exercises! I completed this after day 44of the epic 3 program.
As an add-on after IRON SERIES Day 14! This abs session targets all of it! It's just incredible. Thanks, Caroline!
Whew, this one left my abs CRYING 🔥🔥🔥
I had to take extra breaks after halfway, but it gave me opportunity to see where I can improve 💪🏾
Thanks Caroline!
Caroline Girvan is my spirit animal!! I am loving these shorter workouts. So efficient!
20 min abs & core workout : thanks for this Caroline. We can add this one after 30 min workouts.
As a mother of 3 young children and very little time to exercise.... I can NOT begin to explain the JOY I get when I come to your page and see 20 minute (& 30 minute) workouts!!!!!!!!!
Finally!!!! Got the best abs workout after scrolling the entire TH-cam.... ❤
Tried this workout for the first time today and I work out regularly, but oh my god…This workout is insane! I keep saying Caroline you’re not a human! You’re a machine girl! Loved it ❤
With these workouts I realized how long "40 seconds" can be! Awesome😍
This was a great one! I am so happy to be doing these workouts as a way to get back on track. Commenting to keep myself accountable and let others know it’s never too late to jump back in! :)
Hi Priyanka...wasn’t this a great workout...and this is going to be another superb series I am Sure! No...it’s never too late to jump back in or to start out! So glad you are back into the workouts! See you tomorrow! Matthew
Thanks for the reply Matthew! This community has been so amazing to be a part of. See you tomorrow! I’m anticipating a leg day coming up!
This workout for me was magnificent, I do your abs video all the time, I try to do ten to 15 minutes everyday, so when you drop this one it was right on time. Thank you Caroline you always amaze us with you skills and talents. 💕💕💕
I was told about you from my Weight Watcher's Connect group who know all about you. I made the statement that I was too old to do it. I'm 61 and turning 62 December 28th and another said no, you aren't the oldest one here and that I could do it. I think she is 70 years old. Awesome! SO GLAD I FOUND YOU ON HERE!!! 🙂 A big THANK YOU!!!
I'm 63 and I love Caroline's workouts. You're never too old for them.
Yay! Happy Holidays!! 🙂@@roseobrien6685
I remember doing this 1 year ago, and I feel how much I improved since then.
I'm also picking my workouts from last year's "24 Days" playlist. They just feel so perfect to mix and match this dark and Gothic time of year.
PS: I need to change that AngyBoodi moniker. I'm angry!
Absolutely love these little daily gifts it makes me grin to see them come in…the shoulders were killer despite the short time frame…I have no doubt my core will be feeling a little less Like a bowl full of cherries and more Merry and bright!!!! Thank you for always being a constant light!!! ✨ 🌟 ✨
Hi Alicia...brilliant comment....your core will feel so merry and bright...and strong and well worked at the end of this! What a brilliant session! As you so rightly say...Caroline is a constant light in the lives of so many people! Have a lovely day! Matthew
@@matthewalmond8274 thank you Matthew I can’t wait doing it now!! I hope you had a wonderful day and thank you for also being a source of positivity ✨😊
Love that I can do these videos right when they are released! They come out 9 pm my time zone, which is perfect timing! Caroline, you programmed a fantastic workout in a short period of time. Thank you!
Hi...that’s brilliant! I get them early in the morning but means I can do them before breakfast which is my perfect time! Have a lovely day! Matthew
“The lady in Red”, has smashed it again! Super WO, had time to add on your 20min triceps, feel great thank you so much gorgeous lady! You are bringing amazingness to this December ! Have a great day Caroline and everyone!🌹
Morning Geri...wasn't this another great session. Hope you have a lovely day. See you tomorrow for the mystery workout. Matthew
I actually was not in the mood to work out and was giving myself excuses to not do it but after seeing your upload I thought -- it's just 20 minutes, what have I got to lose? And, as always, I feel better afterwards! Thanks, Caroline!
Going to comment on all your December videos for accountability! 🎄
Hi Nikki...great comment...and it will be lovely to see your comments during December! Have a lovely day! Matthew
I love your short workouts so much caroline!!! These workouts are so effective given that they aren't that long. I'm in high school and have absolutely no time or energy to make time for excersise. But these short ones are just perfect!! Thank you so much for providing these workouts to us!! ❤️❤️🙏🙏
This was killer!! Day 02 and I'm feeling good. Thank God for Caroline Girvan
I am using this as complementary for Iron but this series, it seems to me a bit overlooked, and it stands on its own like a charm. Thank you Caroline, see you all guys on Sunday!
Such a good workout! Thank you Caroline for giving us so much variety!
By far. my favorite ab workout by CG! Love the holiday touch for a little fun! Thank you for these amazing workouts!
The optional add-on made me feel so nostalgic ! 🥺❤️ 2021 was incredible with you Caroline !
True Aurelie.... She wished us a happy year.... It was such a fantastic 2021 thanks to her and her great generosity!!!! Have a lovely day 🤗!!!!
I've done this workout like 15 times. It's my goto 20 min ab workout! Thank you for sharing this!
The coolest Abs&Core workout ever. Thank u so much Caroline
Its since long I have done a dedicated abs and core!! Looking forward to do this today.. Definitely this is going to set my abs on fire🔥 Thank you very much Caroline for this another brilliant workout!! Love this red outfit..Have a wonderful day Caroline and everyone!!
Wow this was HARD. First I was like "20min isn't that long", but I couldn't finish most of the exercises because it was so tough. Anyone able to keep up must have abs of steel. I'm definitely going to feel this tomorrow
With 5 sec' rests, that was a real challenge! Thank you for the workout! After a cardio sesh, that abs workout was just what I needed!
This workout + today's full body absolutely murdered me.
Thanks Caroline 💜
Thank you for a quick and effective workout. Got me back on track this Monday. I love all your videos. Thank you for helping people get healthier and fitter.
Me encanta trabajar contigo Caroline, eres la mejor🏆❤️
Hi Marucita...so true! Caroline is just the best! Enjoy the workout! Matthew
@@matthewalmond8274 hola Matthew, el trabajo para diciembre es fenomenal me encanta el tiempo de duración porque se adapta a este mes de tantas actividades, abrazos
all I want for Christmas is Carolines 30 min ab workouts! LOVE YOUR WORKOUTS CAROLINE!!!!!💗☃️
this should be called "neck straining exercises combination", cause girl, halfway i felt like my head is going to pop off
Same it this normal ?
@@roshanrai8458yes, it’s because you lack core strength
Same😭
This is a great Christmas ab workout, so nice to be able to pick and choose which ab workout I want to do today.
I got here on time! 🤩 Now I'm off to complete this workout 💪🏻
Done ✅✅✅ There were still some moves that are difficult but I'm happy that some have become a little easier 😁 Thanks, Caroline! ❤️
Hi Mariel...well done! This was a tough abs session! I loved it...worked the core hard but lots of fun to do! Have a lovely day! Matthew
Add-on after IRON SERIES Day 14, second round. Excellent abs session! Thanks, Caroline!
I love a good ab and core routine! Can't wait to try this...thank you for this amazing advent calendar Caroline🎅🎁
Hi....so very true...and Caroline’s abs and core workouts are simply the best! What brilliant planning has gone into today’s session! Aren’t we having such a fantastic adventure! Have fun with today’s workout! Matthew
@@matthewalmond8274 Yes , I live Caroline's core workouts, so effective! Hope you enjoy today's workout too Matthew💚
Hi hoth, i wlso love core and abs and find that doung it with carine is the best epic feeling
@@shiraran3619 Agreed!! I can't wait to see what Caroline has planned for the new year too🙂
So happy to see and experience this video. I have been a.grateful follower of Caroline’s upper body workouts since I discovered her after COVID lockdown from the gym. During the same time I have found Pilates inspired ab workouts to be most effective for my body. I think Caroline nailed it in this video and I would love to get more. Also want to do a shout out to her awesome production team. You guys get it better than I have seen it. The halfway, finisher, and % complete are great workout companions. CG is my favorite. Thanks to all who make it happen!
Ok I loved this one like crazy!!! Thank you so much Caroline, I feel like a kiddo having fun and so excited for the Xmas!!! Gracias
Thank you Caroline! After a long day at work this was the best thing my body needed!
Great core workout! It's hard for me to find core workouts that will challenge me. This one was great!
This is all such a great news. I have been picking and choosing older workouts but now I will truly have some structure back. Thank you so much Caroline and best wishes for a happy holiday season to you and your family
I couldn’t complete it at one go but it’s such a beautiful burn 🔥 thanks Caroline 💪🏻🙌🏻 more strength to you and all ✨
02/12/2022 Round 2 Day 2 Done !!! Thank you Caroline ! Fantastic ABS Workout !!! Happy Day to you and all the team !
Eres un ejemplo a seguir, gracias por motivarme con tu esfuerzo y ejemplo, bendiciones
By far my favourite ab workout! I include this 3x a week with these advent workouts. Thank you CG xoxo
los 20 minutos mas largos de mi vida , mis abd piden auxilio, me encanta entrenar asi, superando siempre los limites.. gracias , gracias gracias
That was FIRE on the tummy...absolutely LOVE your workouts. Never Boring and Never a Chore.
Wow! That was intense!, No rest in between..killer! Great series of exercises! Thank you Caroline ❤️❤️🔥💪😰
You 've changed the way I feel about exercising!
Thank you for your videos! You are the best!!
So thankful for all these amazing free workouts! I've lost over 20lbs of baby weight since February 😁💪
Wow Maria!! Absolutely brilliant! I am sure you are loving the gains too!! Those strength gains!!🤩
@@CarolineGirvan yes definitely am 😁💪 stronger then ever before 😍
Started today doing your workouts for the very first time after had my daughter two years ago and gained so much weight. Lost myself and depressed to see myself in the mirror how far I became. I know is gonna be a long journey to be back at my original weight just need more encouragement but I love your videos thank you!
This one was awesome i really feel the burn, because i dont even remember last time working on my abs😁 and i really feel this shoulders from yesterday🙈 Thank you Caroline!❤
Dear Caroline, your smile has literally saved my life 🙏🏽💚👑✨ know this and thank you Queen x All keep shining and thriving 🎉
I had to take a 15 second break here and there.
I always notice that my core have become a little stronger, I can focus on bettering my form now.
This felt amazing! Really hard, but rewarding!
same here! but with Caroline you don't feel guilty taking pauses where you need to. you just feel empowered completing the workout and getting stronger each session!
for me one of the best abs videos 🖐 because it was over 20 minutes, because weights and plank were included .
Through your support dear Caroline, I got a defined abs that I am proud of 💕and I really learned to press my lower back into the mat! 👍🏼
and yes I had a lot of fun with this longer ab workout. 💯
Second time around in the 🎄 program, and I'm loving it as much as the first! (Maybe more because I am stronger.) 😉 Thank you again, Caroline! 🤶🎅❤️🙌 -Angela
Same! Yesterday I was thinking "Where is Caroline... maybe i should do that christmas program again..." I have been doing EPIC 2 again and just finished last week. We are definitely stronger than last year!
31/03/2023 Oh YES ! ADD ON IRON#3 DAY 14 DONE ! ABS are on fire ! Thank you Caroline ! So intense workout for iron abs ! Happy day to you !
I'm pretty confident in my ab strength, but I should've known a Caroline Girvan ab day would be on another level. Definitely felt the burn on those straight leg bicycles.
Fabulous workout as always! Super challenging and definitely now a staple in my workout routine rotation. Thank you Caroline! 🤗💕
One does not see Caroline’s gorgeous abs and think “Nah, I don’t need to train my abs today” 😁😍
Doing this one this afternoon! 👍🏼
Enjoy Matthew lots of fun to be had🔥🔥
I just did your 20 min core workout. Looks simple, but it was a beast. Thank you!
Amazing session. Can't wait to do it after work because it is for me a challange!! 💥💪 Thank You Caroline 😍🌹☀
Morning Ilse...you’ll so much enjoy this! It’s a challenging one...but lots of fun! Your abs will feel so good at the end! Have a lovely day! Matthew
@@matthewalmond8274 a lovely day to you Matthew !
Thank you for this workout. I can see immediate changes on my stomach. It's not as bloated as before. And I love that you added cooling down routine in the end.
Lovely day, I love training abs! This one will be on my list. Currently, I'm doing EPIC I and, after having finished all the other series, it's great to enjoy it. I'm using the advent series as add-ons. Thanks, Caroline. 🧡
Hi Vylia...me too...I just love training abs! Today’s session was so good! Well done on doing epic 1 plus these workouts as add ons! Isn’t epic 1 a fantastic series too! Have a lovely day! Matthew
@@matthewalmond8274 Yes! I postponed it last year and then got caught with EPIC II and decided to go for it. But now, after EPIC II, Heat, III, and all the mini-series, I wanted to go back to basics and enjoy EPIC I. It's fantastic, I love feeling my strength increased during all the year, too. Have a lovely day, too! :)
@@vylia I started with Epic 2 and just finished Epic Heat. Because I missed Epic 1 I think I might do it before 3. I’m sooo behind everyone and she just keeps coming out with more. Caroline’s amazing!!
@@nikkijohnson983 Oh no, don't worry, you're not behind of anybody but ahead of yourself 😊. My favourite so far is EPIC III as a whole, but there are so many good trainings that I think I can put all of them in the same EPIC bag and just choose. What I like the most is the progress, like being able to do something I couldn't before, or holding more seconds a super hard movement. All those little achievements are what make Caroline's method really EPIC. I'm glad you're enjoying it!
There is no word to describe Carolina she is a wonderful human and always provide unique work out free of charge for all people well being and good health. Millions thanks Carolina
