Day 48 of EPIC | Intense Bodyweight and Dumbbell Upper Body Workout
ฝัง
- เผยแพร่เมื่อ 11 ม.ค. 2025
- Total upper body workout using bodyweight and dumbbells as resistance to help strengthen the arms, shoulders, chest, back and core!
For this upper body workout, you will need a pair of dumbbells, a mat and a chair to rest hand on for single arm rows and dips. The dumbbells I am using for your reference are 12.5kg x 2 and 8kg x 2. You can of course use one pair of dumbbells!
I am using the chair for some seated shoulders however you can stand if preferred! I also use the chair for pull overs but again, this is not required. You can perform pullovers on the mat; just ensure dumbbell is is held parallel to mat so you can get a deeper stretch without hitting the mat so soon.
If you prefer not to place feet on chair, simple perform push ups instead of decline push ups and pike push ups with feet on the mat.
The timer will be on for 45 seconds of work, 15 seconds to get ready for next exercise!
Remember to go at a moderate pace, particularly when pressing overhead. During the lowering part of an exercise such as bent over rows, lateral raises, sweeps etc it is the eccentric movement that a lot of work happens so really focused on this part of the lift... you should try to lower as slowly as feasible!
With the skull crusher push ups, push the outsides of the hands into the mat to extend the arms. You can perform tricep or diamond instead to strength the triceps if you prefer.

This finisher is a tough one.. make sure you don’t hold your breath!
Remember to have fun!! It’s ok to stop... when I stop I consider it a positive as I’m pushing myself.. not simply doing the motions. Also this is limited rest with the exercises grouped so various movements all on the shoulders for example with only 15 seconds rest!
Enjoy and be proud!!

I love that she does not speak during the exercises. I can't stand those trainers trying to "motivate" us shouting and puffing. She is great!
LOL,, me too. That is one thing I've learned during the pandemic after trying a lot of online classes. Different strokes for different folks.
ya it was pretty awkward when she yell motived us on day 46 during the slow pushup. I fell out of the move laughing.
Affirmations aren't all bad. It was helpful when I was beginning my TH-cam search for fitness instructors, but generally now I prefer the music as loud as I want and my own sound effects, such as grunting, telling myself I can do it, telling Caroline she's insane... you know, the usual 😆
Oh my goodness same here, I like the quietness and of course Caroline motivates without speaking, just a smile 😁
That is also one of the things I love about her workouts!
Are those my arms? are those my legs? ARE THOSE MY ABS ?! The mirror is sending me back an image that I really like. These 10 weeks have sculpted my body and mind through physical effort and mental focus. I have been training for 18 years and have never achieved the results I see now with the EPIC program. Caroline, you are a true teacher. Thank you, thank you, thank you, I don't have enough words to thank you for so much. Here I will continue after day 50, with whatever, that you bring us.
My thoughts exactly!!!
same here
Comgratulations! That also means a lot for your good health
My son reminded me yesterday to pull up my skirt,it was falling off my hips,hahaha
@@carolinebernardo1267 hahaha
I call this one Caroline speaks, because we get to hear her voice a lot in this one. I like that there is no talking for most of these workouts, but it is nice to hear Caroline speak some tips once and a while, in her lovely northern Irish accent.
I was literally startled by her voice since I’m not use to chit chat workouts.. but nonetheless she was great at giving instructions.🤣
It’s 2024 and I started this program, definitely the best. It helped me with my mental health and physical health, I love how I feel and how I look.
Thank you so much Caroline for this amazing workout!
Caroline, you have changed my life. Im 20 and I’ve dealt with body image issues for a long time. This was the first time in my life where i did not care about what my body looked like. I just feel so much more stronger and better everyday. I can perform more and better squats, better lunges, better pushups, better EVERYTHING!! Thank you so much, you deserve the world!💗
Girl, I don’t think you realize how you are recharging peoples mental health! Thank you for making this 35 week preggo mom with a toddler running between my legs feel so strong and empowered! I appreciate you taking time out of your day to get me moving and clear my mind and and feel like a badass mom💗
I cannot tell you how much my husband and I have enjoyed this 10 week series. Once finished we are going to start it over. We are much older but honestly see results and feel results. Thank you so much for putting these together.
Absolutely wonderful Kimberly! I am honoured you and your husband join me. I absolutely love your name by the way! 💓👊🏼
As the song playing says Caroline you are the best thing that has ever happened to me.....thank you so much for the workouts.
💓💓💓 I love that you love the challenges you are smashing Nancy!! ⭐️💓💓💓
Partilho o mesmo .Caroline é de outro planeta incrivel ,faço exercicios que nunca tinha feito no ginásio
what a sweet and kind thing to say - Sounds like you are on the right track. Keep up the good work.
I agree with you Nancy. Caroline is the best on TH-cam hands down
Súper Caroline🥰🥰🥰
I did this one yesterday, two more workouts to go then I'm jumping right into Epic 2! I wanted to comment and say I actually kinda liked the periodic check ins to help us keep our form in check. I agree with most other viewers that the lack of talking is nice, but I think most are referring to no annoying encouragements (the encouragement for the 40 second push-ups are nice though). I really liked the posture comments though and almost wish they were present in earlier videos. Those are so very helpful whereas a "C'mon everyone! Push through it! Move it!" is not so much, lol.
Hi Caroline, Hi Everyone...I just wanted to say thank you to all who wrote so many lovely replies to my comment yesterday...I was amazed st how many and very touched! Today I’ll write just a short comment! This is the last upper body dumbbell workout of epic! And it looks like a brilliant tough one to finish...lots of dumbbell work and push ups too! Let’s smash this one and have a great workout everyone and a lovely day! Matthew
That nice tought i think this times needs much motivational and positiv thinking people .This is why im whaching and doing this workouts.🤲👌🙏
Love reading all your comments Matthew. Really motivational and thoughtful. I'm so thankful I stuck it out, I wasn't sure I was ready to continue past her first week.. But I did, and I'm so grateful and much stronger. Caroline is EPIC!!
Morning Matthew
Have a happy Day
Epic Soon 👀👏🏻🏴🕰🤸🖊
Hi Caroline...just finished! I won’t pick out any particular tough highlights today as it was all hard...but very rewarding too...I enjoyed pushing myself! I enjoyed hearing your voice...what was reassuring was that each time you gave us a pointer that was how I was doing the exercise! I have been lucky to work with really good instructors over the years...of course this includes you!!!...so I think my form in doing exercises is quite good! Thank you again, Caroline, brilliant as always, and have a lovely day! Matthew
Hi Leena...that is a lovely comment...thank you so much! Have a great workout and a lovely day! Matthew
This is the only one of the Epic series that i haven't liked, and here's why:
I felt like I was always using the wrong weight dumbbells, some with the lighter weight felt too heavy, and some with the heavier ones felt too light, and everything in between. Was I using the wrong ones? I don't know. The visual difference between your two sets of dumbbells isn't clearly obvious.
One way to possibly fix this would be to put a note on the preview window of 'lighter' or 'heavier' dumbbells.
Keep up the great work Caroline, you're making the world (at least some of us) much stronger and motivated!!!
Everytime I feel a move is tough, Caroline, u make it easier by making me do a more tougher one. I now can do push ups and I see definition in abs🥺 u made me move past my desire to look aesthetically appealing but to discover what iam physically capable of doing, working out has now became as regular as going to sleep. Keep rocking Caroline!! U r a blessing,woman,lots of love💕
Hi Sharon...I know what you mean! Exercises that I used to think were really hard I now feel are not too bad because Caroline has got me to do even harder ones! Have a lovely day! Matthew
I've never challenged myself more in my life than with this program and Caroline's workouts. Way to go everyone! You should all be so proud 👏🏼😏
Honestly, I've tried so many fitness influencers and although I've built strength and a healthier lifestyle through starting off with them--- and I've hit a plateau for 7 months--- it was through this epic program where inches finally started trimming off my body and I've felt more stronger than before. & What's crazy is that this is only the beginning. Thank you Caroline, for blessing us with such a program. I can't wait to finish this and head on the next
Hi Caroline! I am writing from Barcelona, Spain. I just wanted to drop you a quick line to thank you for your incredibly demanding, well thought out and tremendously enjoyable work outs. They have made a huge difference in my training, now that we are home bound. Your non nonsense and joyful disposition is amazing. Big thank you and my appreciation.
You are the first fitness youtuber that made me enjoy working out this much!! Thank you so much, you're such a blessing❣
Am I the only who is literally in love with Caroline ?
I started those workout a week ago, and I feel stronger already
You are beyond this world Caroline, simply the best .
God bless you ,
We all love her!!
She is the best 👌 beautiful in and out as well love her
I really love when you speak while we are working out giving us good tips thank you Caroline you are truly a blessing for me... Thank you again.
Thought I was hearing voices when I heard reassuring speaking in middle of wo on pressups day 46 but here it is again. Thanks for the gentle form prompts. Much appreciated. Hope other found that soothing too when smashing this. Have a great day everyone.
Ooo yes the little prompts was a great addition 😊
Thank you...yes hope you have a great day too! Yes I liked the voiceover...reassuring to check you are doing things right! Have a great day! Matthew
@@alexandralane7690 especially when my arms are about to drop off! She just knew exactly when 🤗
@@hhl_travel6008 😆 absolutely
Hahaha I thought I was the only one who thought I was hearing voices. I looked up so quickly🤣🤣🤣
Morning Caroline and all other Epic Warriors!!!! Just finished Day 48, another great challenge, loved your “voice over” addit Caroline, it was great to ensure form was correct! You are really strong, could never go to 12.5kg, I modify accordingly! Thank you once again gorgeous lady, for your time, expertise, and enthusiasm!!! Have a lovely day all! See you tomorrow for Day bc 49!!!! Cannot believe I have done everyone of these!!! It’s really a tribute to you Caroline!!! 🌹
Awesome Geri!! I think it’s a testament to every single one of your strive to keep going! Incredible you have completed every single day of intense training all from home! Amazing!!⭐️⭐️⭐️
Hi Geri...yes amazing that there are only two days left! Can’t believe we have done 48 days of this! See you for day 49 tomorrow...enjoy the rest of your day! Matthew
@@matthewalmond4688 Hi Matthew, I suspect if I was more in tune with this u tube phenomenon, I would find you have great connectivity with the Epic warriors, your always good at commenting, and I appreciate it, when I am less busy I may get to poke around in the channel more! See you early Am!!!! I hope! Geri!
Hi Geri...yes I’m not actually a great social media person myself...I use Facebook a bit but not much else. But I have just got to love interacting with people on this channel. Everyone is just so friendly and encouraging! Yes, I should be doing day 49 early tomorrow! Matthew
I'm actually surprised at how stronger I am now at day 48!! Especially when it comes to push ups!!
Waiting everyday for this! With your workout, I feel better than in a gym. Because with you, there are time limits, so more efficient. I can do push up now naturally with your advise! Thank you!
Hi Yijing...I so much agree...it is much harder to focus and be motivated when working out in the gym! For that reason I have always much preferred classes to just straight gym work! Have a lovely day! Matthew
@@matthewalmond4688 Hi Matthew. So glad that you feel the same. I love gym too, but every time I have to motivate myself to go. Then during the workout you have to think if the machine that you need is occupied, and you always want to check your phone haha. Then now I spend more time at home, and 1h a day is totally reasonable, the best thing is that I really see result! So great!
Same, I have trouble keeping up a reasonable pace when working out on my own without slowing down too much, so I also prefer classes! Though Caroline's classes take me more like 1.5-2 hours (including some extra stretching at the end).
Great session! My second round of EPIC; the time today passed fast. Thanks, Caroline!
I started this program after I got an injury from my covid shot being placed too low in my arm. This meant that I had nerve pain that would radiate up my dominate arm and into my shoulder where it rotates. At the beginning it was nearly impossible to do anything on my injured arm.
I kept working through the pain hoping that if I just kept strengthening the muscles it would help heal the injury from the shot. Any weight bearing on my right side was nearly impossible at first and the stretches where we rotate our arms front and back was too painful to do.
I’m happy to report that as I progressed through this program and kept pushing through the pain I can say that I hardly feel any pain anymore. When we stretched our arms forward and back I didn’t feel the pain at all! I am so happy! Thank you Caroline! You helped me take what I thought was a life long injury and turn it into a full recovery.
Good morning!
Galloping towards the finish.... only 2 more work outs after this one. Ah! Will have to repeat this program to overcome the epic series withdrawals.
Happy arm day everyone... stating this one now... 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻❤️
Hi Heather...hope you enjoyed the workout! It was another very tough one...but fun! Matthew
@@matthewalmond4688 yeah I found it a challenge that’s for sure... the press ups! My arms were a bit sore after Monday. Don’t usually suffer too much with muscle soreness but really did this week... gonna miss the Friday full body! I just loved a Friday... I might have to do the stretch and a full body!
Hope you’re doing well xxx
Me too.
Done ✅ Like yesterday, this felt easy and difficult at the same time 😳 I think that my strength has finally leveled up 😳😳😳 I love it ❤️ 2 more days until I finish Epic 1! YAY! 🎊🎈😍
It speaks for itself how FAST her subs has gone up. She is the best; and her format is perfect.
I’m always apprehensive about upper body day (bc of the shoulder workouts) but then I saw that you incorporated lots of movements you’ve shown us throughout the program and tied them all together into ONE let’s “show out” workout! Super excited to show MYSELF how much I’ve grown physically and mentally! The progress is 💪🏼🔥!!!
Am in the building. I can't complain went to bed early so I was prepared and you never failed on delivery. If I love you and these workouts one more time. That's our Jamaican talk. Thanks CG. Love and thanks. Keep safe all ♥️♥️🤗🤗🙏🏃♀️🏃♀️
Hi Ann...lovely words...yes these are brilliant workouts...I have really enjoyed all of this series! Hope all is good for you in sunny Jamaica! Matthew
@@matthewalmond4688 Thanks bro .Yes am good keeping safe. You should visit us sometime. Am saving most of these workouts. Am definately cleaning up my eating habits and do a repeat of most of them , if not all. God bless CG. #fullygirvanised #workoutsonpoint
Good morning Caroline, good morning everyone. I hope you enjoy this work out. Ill be doing it later. Thank you Caroline, this looks simply amazing. I love a good arm or shoulder dumbell work out. Proper legend. Have an amazing day 🥰🥶💪 x
Hi Trudi...good morning to you too! I'm sure you'll love this workout when you do it. It is another tough one...but fun to do...and a great sense of achievemnt at the end! Have a lovely day! Matthew
@@matthewalmond4688 quitting time soon so ill be on it then!! Cannot wait I honestly love arms and shoulders, it burns but its soooo good. Happy days. Thank you so much. Youre a good one on here Mathew! Have an amazing day.
The finisher finished me, ouchhhh🤕🤕🤕. Goodluck everyone, I hope you smash it. Thanks for another epic workout Caroline ❤️❤️❤️
my first week of epic i said "these are really hard, I dont think I'll do the full challenge because I think it might be bad for me mentally." Instead, I decided to give myself the chance. Just this one challenge. 48 days (plus plenty of rest days) later I can do more pushups than ever. My body has changed so much and I can lift dumbbells as heavy as my brothers can (and even heavier). I feel like a completely new person, one who is more strong, more confident, and more ready to push my body's limits. Thank you for this gift Caroline, weight training is the new love of my life and I cant wait to continue getting stronger.
Few words from my side for such an EPIC program. I am not that good in expressing.Before starting I was not sure how iam going to do it because I have never tried such challenges before. So now, what EPIC has teach me first and foremost YES you can do it. I have never dared to do such exercises I never knew about them also. While doing workout I always thought I have always underestimated my self, if you try any thing can happen. Second I can easily see how my strength has improved 💪💪💪. There were a time I was not able to get up from floor with out taking support. I never imagined I will able to do squats on toes. Third if we get a teacher like you any student can learn. How was EPIC? Definitely very much challenging, fun , energetic. When ever HIIT day I used to be like beast mode on. Now most toughest days of EPIC day ofcourse day 1 then 7, 21, 30 and 39 till now.( Especially day 7 because I clearly remember My legs were sore for almost a week). My dream is to do HIIT like Caroline with such energy. Thank you so much Caroline, looking forward for many more . Best wishes to you ❤. Love and more power to all of you such an amzaing community stay happy and healthy. 😊
Hi Nawaz...lovely comment! It is so good to know how much progress you have made during this series. Caroline is just brilliant isn’t she! Hope you have a great day! Matthew
I really like the addition of the voice over for tips on exercise form. I agree that it's nice to not have someone talking the whole time, but verbal cues are very helpful. Thanks, Caroline!
Finishing off the last epic arms workout with my first time lifting 3-4kg!!! Absolutely loved this and those dips were a killer!!!!! I can say that your arms workouts are my absolute favorite and as a matter of fact that’s how I found your channel! I’m very grateful that I did❤️❤️ I remember being upset about not being able to do rows with proper form on my left side and now here I am today doing it perfectly with 3kg!!!!! I’ve gotten so much stronger, as many many others have and it’s all thanks to you Caroline and the hard work we’ve all put into ourselves and these amazing workouts! Thank you thank you thank you.
Absolutely fantastic Zsófi! Super progress!! Yes those dips!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥😁👊🏼
Hey Caroline! There are only so many ways to say thank you and at this rate, I think I’m gonna run out of creative ways to express my gratitude, considering so many kind words already here ❤️. Anyway, a few days ago I picked up my trx after leaving it dormant for the past 8 months. I gave it a try starting out with push ups. And I was surprised that not only my strength had not degraded, I actually performed pushups more gracefully than ever! Back straight, core and quad tight, coming all the way down, chest briefly touching the ground and controlling all the way up, keeping my form. I would be more than happy to see your take on trx in the post Epic era ( it’s still gonna be epic no matter what you call it!💪😁)
Hi El...It's so brilliant when you see such great progress isn't it! Have a lovely day! Matthew
Good morning all! One of the first things I do when I wake up is check the workout Caroline’s posted, how I’ll miss that soon...
Going to work now, but will do this after! 💪🏻💪🏻
Thanks, Caroline 🌸
Just finished day 48 on Thanksgiving morning. I couldn’t be more grateful to Caroline and this community. 🧡🧡🧡
Me too... it’s wonderful reading how so many are in this too... the dedication, hard work and funny stories is so motivating!!💓
I loved the simple fact that this workout could be done with bare feet... another EPIC day, after I workout I find ANYTHING is possible with my day. THANK YOU for keeping me strong and fit and healthy in a world that seems upside down through this pandemic. You are simply amazing and I appreciate you!!! Pouring out blessings for you and yours today, Caroline. Xoxoxo
Its so bittersweet to almost be finished with epic 😮💨 those dips at the end got me!! Thank you Caroline so much for providing these workouts. My body has progressed so much and I am starting to see definition in my thighs, arms, shoulders, and stomach. I am so glad I found this channel!!
Morning Caroline, morning everyone! A good day to be EPIC! 😍💥💯💕
Morning Ilse...enjoy your workout! Have a lovely day! Matthew
@@matthewalmond4688 you too and habe fun with Caroline.
One of the best things that I've learnt from this series and Caroline is to not give up!

Hi Caitlin...I so much agree...I am definitely so much stronger...and like you I look forward to each video! Have a lovely day! Matthew

Hi Caroline and everyone getting closer to the end of series. ...let's smash it ..thanks Caroline will update after completion

Thank you Monica,glade you enjoyed,have a nice day😉
Hi Monica...yes I agree this was a tough one...and the finisher was tough as you say...especially the hold...then having to do dips again!! Have a lovely day! Matthew
Okay, it seems easy peasy..... for Caroline only😂 looks like Im going to cry doing this tomorrow morning. And Im going to do it anyway, cause why not?? This is a superb upper body workout made for us by our Epic Beautiful and Ripped coach Caroline💪🏻 Good luck to all and continue being EPIC!
Thank you so much Caroline💕
@@angelinexfit7783 you will enjoy it ...have a nice day.
I want to thank you because you have made stronger, not only physically but also mentally. Caroline, you are my favorite fitness trainer! This 10 weeks have been amazing.
Just finished this EPIC workout and can hardly type! Arms are spaghetti! They feel so happily worked! I love that my shoulders are now noticeably "pumped" after these arm workouts. I feel sooo good. Thank you, Caroline for being such a fantastic trainer. Your EPIC program has made such a positive change in my life!
Awesome Tammy!! Love a good arm abs shoulder pump!!😆👊🏼😁
A super complete compendium of upper body exercises; what a fun workout! Yesterday and today, we got to listen to Caroline pushing us through some complicated moves, like the slow push-up that has the property of dilating the time. Incredible day 48. Thanks, Caroline!
This was a great workout @caroline. Some new additions I noticed that I appreciate ... your commenting on certain workouts, talking about form, speed and control was appreciated. As are the beeps as you switch cool down moves from one to another. Keep up the EPIC workouts!
Thank you Ananda, I’ll do happy you love the small changes! Way to go Ananda!!🔥🔥🔥💪💪👊🏼
Yes I have completed epic 1. For people that read the comments but still not sure go for. It’s a great workout. You can make it fit your fitness levels and you will definitely feel stronger at the end. A very good all round structured program. You only have to look at Caroline to see that she knows exactly what she’s doing and helping us look and feel better. I don’t think there is a single body part that has not been flexed lengthened or stretched in some way shape or form. Thanks Caroline. Now for advent with the recommended add on
It`s so cool that I`m repeating your workouts but with heavier weight! I`m proud of myself 😊Thank you, Caroline!
Great workout Caroline. I did find it hard to distinguish between 12.5kg dumbbell & 8kg from the video, but tried to watch carefully. This would be a great idea to add when the exercise information is on the screen..
I LOVE the verbal reminders/cues. A great addition to a phenomenal program. Thank you Caroline!!
I love how by making the movements 45 seconds on--15 seconds rest, it is increasingly harder! Thanks for another awesome workout Caroline. :)
Po tych ćwiczeniach czujemy się super zmęczeni i super szczęśliwi !! :)
Nearing a million! You are so worth it. Please don't introduce talking within workout. That's what made it so special.
I love the efficiency of your verbal cues, but it was nice in this video to also have the audio of you cueing these exercises.
Liked the addition of the instructional voice over during some of the sets. You’re the best! Thank you
Two more days remaining. Thank you Caroline for being my trainer these past 10 weeks. I used my 20lb db mostly this round. Crazy to think I started with 10’s.
LOVED the talking (correct form and words of encouragement) in my ear during this one! It was like CG was right next to me!! I know all the songs and sing along! Thanks so much for this program......can't wait to see what's next!
It’s taken me well over 7 months to get this far in this challenge but I still feel as strong as I’ve been in a long long time. As a 34 year old man who has been lifting weights since I was 13...this is the best program I’ve ever done. Two more to go! Then I gotta see if I can motivate myself to do Epic II
I like your explanation during the workout, that helps a lot in correcting my form. Hope you'll do this often. Thank you again for your great videos!
I’ve really enjoyed this epic programme and hope there is another. Thank you so much for all the workouts. You are so good and love your professionalism. A big thank you for all your work for usxx
Hi Vanessa...lovely comment...I'm sure that Caroline will have something exciting for us to do after EPIC! Have a lovely day! Matthew
Just wanted to say THANK YOU! You have no idea how much your programme helped me and how much better i feel. Not to mention stronger. My body looks its best. Thank you for sharing all this for free with us! And thank you for your beautiful smile! ❤️
Oooohhh what a super wonderful EPIC day. I had a one time krav maga (self defense ) workshop/extended class this morning , that was amazing. Then I had some errands to run and that meant some driving as well. So I came back home and took a nap. And I so needed still do the work outs , to be honest my mind and body were asking for it LOL. So I smashed day 47 and day 48 in a row and I feel totally super EPIC. Amazing sessions again and the music for day 47 absolutely rocks!!!!! "See" you all on Friday. Thanks again Caroline!!
Wow Edith!! You meant business!! Way to go!! 🔥👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼👊🏼⭐️
Thank you Caroline! I felt really strong during this workout! I can't believe I only have 2 more workouts! I have literally done every single workout so far! I am looking forward to completing all of the Epic challenges in the series!
My shoulders are sore from Monday. The push-ups for definitely a struggle but I pushed through. Thank you so much Caroline. Your combinations are so effective in 10 weeks by body has changed more than it has in years of working out with weights at a gym. I stopped going to the gym after my fourth child and then had a fifth child and continue to work out at home because it's so much more convenient.
Caroline thank you so much,I am doing your workouts for 5 months and now this amazing challenge,now I can really see changes,it is all because of you..you push me to do things that I never did before and again thank you Caroline and everyone in this community thank you so much,for advices and motivation,the best community ever!
When we start doing this challenge,I was very sick and did not do 2 weeks of Epic but I will,and also quit smoking,so happy because of that,after 1 month I just want to share with all of you..sorry for my english,see you on Friday😉
caroline is the best!! i've never felt so fit ever... keep up the good work.
Hi Sekhar...I so much agree with what you say! Have a lovely day! Matthew
So perfect workout,all of them are. I can't wait everyday . I feel really stronger and I realise it as I make other workouts. I love that you don't speak, I love that you started speaking in the workouts , I love it all. The format is great, we know how much time we have to work or rest, everything is so smooth and comfortable. I'm going to miss the epic . Good afternoon to all, Caroline thanks
EPIC!!!! Thank you Caroline. This workout deserves another round. Happy rest day tomorrow, team!!! 💪💚💪
The 25-lb dumbbells I'd ordered from Caroline's Amazon page just arrived last weekend and I finally got to try them out with this workout. Woo-weeeee! Had to take more breaks and eventually drop back down to 20 or 15 lbs for some of the latter exercises, but it's awesome to be able to workout with the heaviest weights I've ever used for shoulders. Proof positive of all the progress achieved thanks to Caroline!
Brilliant you got new weights Kathy!! 🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩 you will love them!!💓
Hi Caroline, you are simply the best!💟 10 weeks of special trainings with you are almost gone but we acomplished so much. I am super greateful for everything you are doing for us and looking forward to see what's coming next! I sure learnt a lot from each workout! The complexity of the workouts is what I love the most because it keeps me motivated and I never get bored! Thank you!💟
I want to THANK YOU so much for this series. I never thought 10 weeks would go by so quickly. You have become dear to me and my workout routine during these uncertain times. I look forward to staying with you in the future. You’re certainly one of the very best! If you’re ever in Montana, give me a shout out!
When everything is going smoothly, my grip is working fine, and my arms is messing up the whole thing. I just wanna curse at my arms they are so weak I can't 🤦🏻♀️. As a beginner in lifting, lifting 10lbs has been an achievement for me. Used my 10lbs at the whole time. Tried using my 5lbs at wide curls and the burn is real after using my 10lbs for the whole time. It doesn't hurt like day 46 but the burn is real! I had a hard time doing sweep but I still use my 10s anyway. Tried practicing my push up here and my arms are too weak swear but I won't give up. 10lbs burn so much that I can't feel a thing with 5 it is so light. Thank u, Caroline! 2 more days then I am done. So excited for epic 2. ❤
Caroline, thank you so much for all you give. I've only been with you for two months. But I'm stronger and farther along in my health journey than I did on my own in the gym. I feel emotionally stronger and physically healthier. You've been a blessing!
Epic Day 48 completed. Enjoyed every second of this challenging workout. 💪🔥 Thank you, Caroline!💜
i cannot believe I I I have done all these till date. still hate abs and push ups up then again you have to do what you dont like to succeed right. on the other hand my strength and stamina for abs and push ups has come along way thanks to me trying.
So tired I didn’t get to comment yesterday. I loved the class as always and tried my best with the push-ups. I’m amazed that these 10 weeks are almost over snd that I’m still here. Thank you Caroline for what you give us all ❤️
Way to go Barbara!! It is incredible you have been so dedicated over these weeks and nearly completed 50 workouts! 💓💓💓💓
Another superb Upper Body session with numerous movements that you can feel working. Chest was still tight from Monday but I love these workouts so couldn't wait to get at it. Great Shoulder set to get you on the way and they were burning by the time I got to the one arm press. A struggle to keeping going without a rest but just finished the last one as the timer went. Then you realise you have the Arnolds and the 90' hold to open..... double burnout. Really love the Chest set and had a little chuckle to myself as you know that after Diamond press will come Diamond pushups and after Tricep press will come Tricep Pushups.....Back was great and then the Biceps and Ticeps... so love those kneeling curl to presses and then Around the Worlds. Loved every minute and used 12.5 KG were possible and 10 Kg for the raises etc. Super Workout Caroline really can't believe there are just two EPIC days left but so thankful for the back catalogue of amazing workout who have created for us all.
@AnthonyCarson a superb session today, totally pumped, 💪👊👏 and totally burned out🔥, loved the tips from Caroline today midway through certain reps.... 👌😃
@@samanthamilner4486 yea those are really good especially on the hold. I love that pushup hold. I sort of try to do most of the time on the way down but the up movement is hard too. Nice to have a wee decline pushup as well 😀
Hi Anthony...another brilliant workout! See you tomorrow for Stretch and Strength! Matthew
@@matthewalmond4688 Hi Matthew that one sounds really interesting. You will be all completed before Im out of bed. Cant wait to read your comments. Have a lovely evening and see you tomorrow 💪 last day but one ☹
The talk over encouragements and tutorials are AWESOME!!
Thank you, Caroline!💃🏽✨
And good workout to everybody!
💪💫👏🏻😘💗
Meli thank you,have amazing workout!😉
Hi Meli...you too...have a great workout and enjoy the rest of your day! Matthew
Only 2 more days of training left...10 weeks has flew by...I'm going to miss the routine and consistency to my training...can't thank you enough for giving us all this amazing programme....I'm sure most will agree we are stronger and fitter from week 1...I feel I can do anything now 🤗🤗 and will keep going with another 10 week repeat and possibly 🙄 watch my diet aswell 🙄🙄 but I've seen huge improvements in my shape and it's noticed by others...thank you Caroline you are a 🌟 star
BEST YOU TUBE TRAINER BY FAR. Wish Caroline lived near me id defo hire her as my personal trainer. BLOODY AWESOME . X
Out of all the fitness youtuber that I followed throughout this pandemic yours was the only one that kept me motivated to finish a whole exercise program. I always find myself looking forward to and getting excited to my next workout! I love how you challenge us each day. I’ve never felt this strong as before. Will definitely jump right into EPIC 2 after this! Can’t wait!
This was fantastic!! Happy Thanksgiving all-I’m thankful for all of you all over the world and this amazing program. Much love ❤️
this was amazing... hearing your voice made my form much better and it push me to go harder... it has been anamazing 10 weeks, blessing to you and you family
As ever another a great workout. Relentless dumbells and press ups. The chair is out again😀💪. Lots to 💕. Sadly on 2 more days of Epic make sure you enjoy 😊 x
Hi Annette...yes another great workout and yes the Chair features again, not least in the 1 minute burnout at the end! Enjoy the workout, enjoy the last 2 days of epic and let's look forward to more fun things to come from Caroline! Matthew
Too many knee surgeries, too little rehab, and just good ole aging over the years have wasted away my hamstrings. Even though I have been lifting heavier weights over this series, it has only been during the past three weeks where my hamstrings have finally been engaging and firing during the glute bridge! It's amazing how our bodies can compensate, and then, regenerate. Feeling fit and motivated to finish this series. Thank you!
Thank you Caroline for your generosity, effort, enthusiasm and time you put into these videos. You inspire me to give more. ❤
As I get closer to be doing with this first Epic program I’m super stoked to see #2! At 47 I don’t think I’ve ever been this physically strong! I have a goal for my 48th birthday in June and by doing these workouts I feel I’m going to meet it! Thank you for all you do!!
Good morning 🙂. Very good workout, challenging and efficient! I really enjoy working the upper body and your combinations are amazing. As always, time just flies by. Great day to all.
Hi Manon...great day to you too! Yes I agree with all that you say...a challenging workout that was also fun to do...and as always with Caroline's workouts the time flies by...you just don't have time to stop and think too much!! Have a lovely day! Matthew
Hi Caroline..
I really loved this one today ❤️
My arm's were shaking by the end, could feel the burn 🔥..
I used my 2x 10kg all the way through so feeling on top of the world now as I didn't think I'd last with that weight as my upper strength is my weakness,
Really enjoyed the format today
I then did another quick arm workout of yours then your new 15 minutes abs, so I'm well and truly dead now
😂
Cannot believe we just done day 48 and that we only have two workouts left with you on this Epic journey
💕Lisa
Hi Lisa...you are working so hard and are so committed to these workouts...really inspirational! Enjoy the rest of your day...and see you for day 49 on Friday! Matthew
@@matthewalmond4688
Hi Matthew..
Thank you for your kind words.
I am really enjoying this and really wanted to finish the 10 weeks on I high..
Hope you got on well today and enjoyed it..
Enjoy your evening
See you for day 49...
Lisa
Listo !! Ya parece más sencillo ... Estamos a solo 2 días de terminar!! es increíble!! Estoy orgullosa de mí, por estar a punto de culminar y la magnitud de mi agradecimiento se pierde de vista Caroline!!. Gracias Gracias Gracias !!
i know this workout is over a month old but i did it yesterday and my arms and chest are so sore today... thank you Caroline. Love your workout
Caroline, thank you so much! I am aching with my 5 kgs. You are absolutely awesome!
I was nearly in tears of exhaustion/frustration in the dip burnout at the end! I love the burn I feel when I am done, but man some days it takes everything in me to keep going! This was tough for sure! I think the most challenging for me today was the pike pushups on the chair. One thing I have to say is that when you are using different size weights it isn’t always easy to tell when you switch and that can be confusing on my end. Thank you for the killer workout!
Way to go K S!! Yes definitely challenging those dips!!🔥🔥🔥👊🏼 yes I usually have only one pair or if two pairs often one pair is the black so I’ll put on screen next time to differentiate! 💓💓💓👊🏼
Loved this! Hope everyone absolutely crushed it! Sad this challenge is coming to an end but wow have I been feeling stronger! Caroline you are the best, thank you!
