  • Happy first full body Friday of EPIC II!! 60 minutes full body workout using supersets of dumbbell and bodyweight exercises to test your strength, endurance, balance, co-ordination and ability to push past those limits! Slow is the aim of the game here!!
    There is a staple superset to really test your lower body and core:
    SQUAT DIAGONAL STEPS X 1 DB
    BODYWEIGHT SQUAT WALK!
    This will appear every 3/4th superset! Go as low as you can whilst pushing hips back, chest open and gaze forward! Step forward gently with each step and lower in each squat...this is intense!
    All you will need is a pair of dumbbells, a mat and a wall for some wall sits! The dumbbells I am using for your reference are 12.5kg each.
    The timer will be on for 45 seconds, immediately into another 45 seconds superset then 30 seconds rest before moving to the next superset!

Caroline, your program is a game changer! 💪 I've been a runner my whole life, but never had the courage to try out weighted workouts / lift. The confidence I'm gaining from these workouts is translating to other parts of my life. I swear I'd cry tear of joy if I'd ever met you.

Having a healthy view on these things and letting go of any guilt and negativity brings so much more joy to workouts and life in general 💗 I have also let go of "I can't do that!" If something is new and challenging then I just focus on learning to do one rep. Before I know it, I am doing 5 reps and adding each time! This first week of Epic II has been so fun and challenging!

I started reading through the comments and ALL OF YOU motivated me to keep going! So I got back up and I killed it. Now I’m so thankful for giving myself a little more time, pushing through, and feeling EPIC for day 5 💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻💪🏻😋😋😋😋 thank you Caroline🤛🏼

I was pretty proud when I used the 25s for the push presses - a PB for me! 💪🏻👏🏻 I really didn’t think I could but I tried it and surprised myself! Felt really good after our rest day yesterday!

      I almost always start tipping over in the beginning! But it really helps when I engage my core, engage the glute of the leg that is back, and make sure my whole front foot is pressing down into the ground! Hope that can help someone else! :)

      @JustMe-gr5yk 3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      If you don‘t already, you could also focus on the heel of your front foot. It feels a little bit like a stable point, that holds the lunge together XD That’s the best way I can express it XD

      Hello Navya! I also did approx 5 minutes before beginning this but honestly, it’s low impact and slow paced.. after I felt amazing and forgot all about it!! But just pay extra attention to how your back feels... keep it straight during rows and RDLs as your core might not feel as tight as mine doesn’t! Cx
