Thank you for this comment. I am 51 and looking 71 LOL. I am intimidated to start this but know I need it and wasnt sure if I can do it. You gave me motivation X
This series has been a good introduction to Caroline’s workouts for me. I’d been previously intimidated by the 1 hour sessions but I’ve followed these amazing 20 minute workouts and now find myself tempted to attempt some of the 30-45 minute workouts! Can’t wait to keep it going in 2022
Hi...it’s so brilliant that you’ve discovered Caroline’s workouts and that you are enjoying them so much! Once you start doing these workouts you’ll simply never look back...Caroline is the best on line fitness trainer by miles! You’ll certainly be smashing the longer workouts and having lots of fun too! Have a lovely day! Matthew
I totally understand that you were intimidated by the 1 hour workouts! Honestly I was too and still kinda am. I think you could totally pull of the new epic series of you think you are ready for it. Good luck!
@@dunjavelebit4613 thank you!! I did a 45 minute full body workout (I believe it’s day 4 from epic 3) on Wednesday and absolutely smashed it! I’m super pumped to go through at least one of the epic series now that I know that I can! Thank you for the encouragement.
It looks amazing and so comprehensive today, excited to get to it later☺️ Edit: just finished with the add-on) There are two things i will probably never fathom: 1. How a 20-minute workout can feel like a 40-minute one in intensity, it's just some kind of sorcery😄 2. How Caroline is able to do chest press with two 17.5kg dumbbells 😱😱 Loved the workout, thank you so much Caroline!
😆 brilliant Al!! Yes! These workouts are actually a very solid session and even thought not very long, are slow paced! Many people tend to think if short on time, fast paced exercise is needed but infact you really will stimulate muscle growth whilst becoming stronger even in such a short workout! Yes those chest press always become so difficult by the 3rd set! I have definitely worked up to that weight but lifting heavier takes time for me especially as I’ve been lifting awhile. At the beginning I was increasing my weight much more often! Now I really only increase when I can with perfect form and control! Way to go today Al!! Smashed it!!🤩👊🏼
Isn’t it amazing how quickly this brilliant Advent Calendar series has gone by...it’s hard to believe that we are in the last few workouts! I’m really looking forward to today’s workout...great range of exercises and it’s going to work the whole of the upper body hard! Have fun everyone and happy Monday! Matthew
Hi Matthew and happy Monday! Can't wait to see what Caroline was in store for us. She always gave us the best content, the most beautiful smile and so much passion and positivity. We're just blessed to have her💖
We all know by now when Caroline says it’s hard, it’s HARD!! Looking forward to this slow & controlled killer session. Keep up the super training everyone!!
Morning Devansh...yes I’m looking forward to this workout to work the whole of the upper body hard! Hope you have a great session and happy Monday! Matthew
Hi Devansh, I think I must finally buy those 12,5 kg dumbells for the back and chest. Do you think is ok if I lift only 7kg for the shoulders? I just can't do more. Any tips? Have a 🔥 workout that will leave you with the best feeling 💪
Just finished with the workout…Caroline, you’ve outdone yourself with today’s workout!! That was 🔥ing all the way & you were right, I could literally feel each muscle working really “HARD” using a pair of 17.5kg & 5kgs…thank you for this masterpiece, definitely a fav & re-visiting this 💖
My arms are hollering! This workout was tough fun! Thank you Caroline! These 20 minute workouts have been perfect for the holidays...enough to wash away the stress and keep our bodies pumped!!
I finished my undergrad last Thursday! Since then, I've been celebrating my accomplishment by doing 3 of your Advent workouts every day! Thank you so much for all these amazing workouts! ❤ ⚘️
@@luislenoirstaraceverde2493 Thank you so much! You're absolutely right, Caroline's workouts are gifts for all of us! You too, enjoy all the workouts and keep up the hard work 💪 ❤ ⚘️
Congratulations Inanna!! I’m sure you are just feeling on cloud 9! It’s amazing what we can accomplish when we are prepared to work for it. And 3 a day!! Wow!! That’s a solid 60 minutes of a lot of fun!😉🤩👊🏼
@@CarolineGirvan Thank you so much my dear! Your workouts make me feel better and more confident, I just feel amazing every time I finish one of them! So, thanks a million my dear! ❤ ⚘️🙏
Hello Caroline, I saw in the comments that I did this workout 9 months ago before I started physical therapy due to pain on left forearm. I couldn't use any weight on the left side. Moving forward to now, after completing PT and doing your shoulder strength workouts, I can do all the moves with weight on left side too! Even with 4 lb DB! I felt so good doing this workout this morning! 💪 Your workouts helped me so much! I truly appreciate it. 🙏 Thank you so much always Caroline!
Good morning everyone!!! It seems like an amazing workout. I can't wait to start it after my studying. It really helps me to concentrate more on my work and feel motivated through the day! Have a nice day guys!!!!
"Hard" is right!! 👊🏻 That burned from start to finish! 🔥🤩🔥! I throughly enjoyed the workout! Can't even say what was the hardest..it was all hard😆! But still doable..gotta love that burn! My arms felt like inflated balloons by the end 🎈. Thanks again Caroline. See everyone tomorrow! 😁
Hi everyone! This upper body session looks really excellent. I find amazing how Caroline plays on variations of time of work and pauses in order to get the best out of these 20 mn of hard work 👍 Thank you as always Caroline 💖 Have a great workout and a happy week everyone
This has been an amazing series!! Short and killer!! Looking forward to this HARD upper body workout!! As its explicitly named HARD.. I can imagine how absolute burner it will be!! Thank you so much Caroline for all your great efforts!! You are the best!! Have a wonderful day Caroline and everyone!!
Hi Priyardarshini...you will so much enjoy this workout! Yes it is hard, but so brilliantly put together that it’s really good fun to do! You’ll feel so good at the end! Have a lovely day! Matthew
Hi Priyardarshini, this workout looks so amazing, only 4 workouts left before Xmas! We will smash this tough upper body workout together this evening! ♥
Don't be deceived by the fact it's only 20 mins! I recently did a six week strength program in order to push through a plateau I had reached (I wanted to increase the weight I could use in Caroline's workouts). After finishing it, I went back to doing one of the advent leg workouts and I was SO much more sore afterwards than at any point throughout the program I did!! I could barely walk! 😂 Thank you Caroline for putting together the most intense workouts that get big results 💜
Got this one in nice and early before my booster jab this morning, didn’t want to leave it till afterwards looking at the title! Great workout as always! Thanks Caroline
Best trainer I have seen on TH-cam! I can really see a difference in my body since I discovered Caroline Girvan! This trainer can push you to do your best. She motivates me with her disposition. The cool down at the end is a bonus! I’m hooked on these workouts! Thank you!
Hi Carolina. I know I left TH-cam, but you left so much for us to use and challenge ourselves. I hope you come back one day! Thank you so much! After each your workout I discover new muscles that I didn't know I had.
Truly a perfect 20-minute upper body session. Love that, as you say, you feel the burn in each section without even being told what part you're working on. Love being able to revisit these a year later and still love them!🌺❤🙏
My first Caroline workout after a nasty cycling accident in which I broke my femur +. Thank you for your energy and quality workouts, so glad to add your workouts as part of my recovery process.
Caroline, I'm very happy because I found you on TH-cam😍 Thank you for the training, I love them and look forward to it every day. It was difficult today, but what a satisfaction after training 👍👍👍
another great session Caroline, I neglect training upper body so this was a great change for me. love the 20 minute short workouts too. great for the evening after work. thanks!
These workouts are GREAT!! She really helps me to focus on form and slowing down. I’m so glad I found her! She is better than any personal trainer you could pay for at the gym.
I was so hoping for an upper body workout today!! This advent calendar has been so much fun! I love waking up to these workouts every day, and I know I’ll be coming back to them as add-ons in the future. Happy 20th day of Christmas Girvanators!! 🎁🎄🎉Let’s make the most of this stellar upper body session!
Hi Maggie...yes it’s Ana img that we’re on day 20 already! You’ll love this upper body session...so well planned as always...and so much in the 20 minutes! I loved it...in fact I enjoyed it so much that I did the add on too...and now my arms really are well worked! Have a lovely day! Matthew
This was such a brilliant workout, Caroline! The time just flew by! And my arms are sore! Love waking up to this series, Caroline! Once again, you've done such an amazing job thinking about everyone's busy schedule, but still challenging us! Have a wonderful Monday everyone!
What a fiery burning session! Caroline just took this 20 min upper body session to a whole new level! Determination, sheer focus along with strength and power are all pushed to the limit. Brilliant workout for the mind and the body. Thank you Caroline!
Hallo Caroline, heute hat in Deutschland endlich wieder mal die Sonne geschienen und ich bin laufen gegangen. Ich war danach so motiviert das ich dein workout gleich im Anschluss angehängt habe. Das war heute wieder eines meiner vielen Lieblingsworkouts von dir 😃. Epic II, Epic III und Epic Heat habe ich schon mit dir geschafft 💪. Die neuen Workouts vor Weihnachten sind wieder perfekt😊 Vielen lieben Dank und eine schöne Vorweihnachtszeit. Liebe Grüße aus Deutschland 🇩🇪
I really appreciate that you do these exercises in real time along with us. It’s really motivating to see that sometimes these exercises are hard for the trainers as well and it shows me that it’s not weak to stop and take a breath. It’s the opposite, it shows determination and the strength to keep going. Great workout! I really appreciate you!
I love working out with you Caroline! ❤️ Another great set of exercises, I paired it with calisthenics leg workout and I’m ready for this sunny Monday!
These 20 minutes are beyond amazing and I appreciate them all thank you so very much Caroline😇 my upperbody is finished after epic heat day 32🔥💪🏽 I should wash my hair before my arms know what's going on🤣🤣
This is my favourite upper body workout ever, it tackles every area and the fact that its shorter benefits me greatly because I can fit it in before work. Thank you CG!
All done! Add-on too. That was a solid all-rounder with a great mix of training methods all thrown in to keep it lively. Used 20 lbs for chest, 25 lbs for rows (but just got in 6 super slow reps), 10s all else. After following these programs, one gets better at judging the weights to pull out, but it never hurts when Caroline suggests you might want to go lighter here and there! Rarely do I think I should have gone heavier! And, if I do, I go off script and play with tempo a bit. I always get a solid workout no matter what. Thanks again! Hard to believe this is coming to an end soon.
I use her workouts 20-30 minutes to supplement my running (main sport … endurance/ marathon length races) and, hands down, best routines for the time put in! I don’t do her leg workouts because it wears out my legs which are already spent but upper body and core are 👌🏽 thanks Caroline!
This is my go to upper body workout lately! I add battle ropes at the end for as long as I can. Sometimes I’ll do this workout twice through . The intensity is fire on this one!
Hello ! Just wanted to say thank you to Caroline for all these amazing workout, I'm a fellow follower for about a year and a half now and these workout really helped me loving myself and overcome my ED. Thank you again ❤ Merry Christmas and greetings from France !
Hello Manon! Thank you so much for sharing your journey. I know you have been working so hard and to know that you are gaining so many benefits makes me genuinely so happy. Loving yourself and taking care of your body is a privilege. Thank you for taking time from your day to share your progress Manon. Lots of love Caroline x
I am a new subscriber and I can not thank you enough!! Your workouts are exactly what I have been looking for (and I have been looking for a while)! Your workouts are straight-to-the-muscle workouts; no useless filler talk. I love them!! They're awesome. Thank you again!!
I Did the HIIT and glutes yesterday and I really feel so great with lots of sweat! Now this is what I have been missing - upper body! It looks it is going to be another short but effective workout! Have a great workout everyone !
The only upper body workout which is quick and gives a good satisfaction of the workout. Thank you for the great work Caroline. 💪❤️ Let's grow stronger with her workouts guys💥
Morning everyone! If Caroline says hard upper body ... Well I can't imagine how strenght I 'll need to train! But never give up!!! It really looks challenging and It's just what we're got used to with our Amazing Coach!❤️ So let's go Girvanators, let's smash this workout!!!
Done a few of Caroline's workouts because I think they're the best dumbell workouts on youtube, but was looking to amp up the intensity of my arm workouts in general and.... HARD is an understatement! Swore multiple times during this video 😂 awesome workout definitely feeling stronger after this, thank you!
Didn't we all just Luv yesterdays HOT HIIT?! So Fun! We're IN for another Challenge. It's HARD..We GOT this! 😆👊 Have a great workout everyone! Woohoo!! Apt name for Day 20! When it came to dips Upperbody was shaking already. And it goes on with the curls and finisher. Burn was Real! Luv it! Enjoyed pushing through! Feels Amazing! Thanks Caroline! ❤️ Happy Monday!
Hi Trish, yesss! Those hops and hit feet where so fun to do... And a little Painful might say 😉but we're ready for another challenge. Have a great day 🤗
@@luislenoirstaraceverde2493 Hi Luis! 🤗 Today's sesh was challenging. Slower made the DBs feel heavier. It was fun pushing through the burn. Enjoy! Have a lovely Monday! 😊
You are so strong, Caroline. I'm just doing 8-lb weights. Thank you for offering these shorter workouts! I just came from being sick for two weeks during the holidays. So these are great!!!
Extraordinary upper body session! It has everything! I added it to a shoulder session day from EPIC I, and my upper muscles are on fire! Thanks, Caroline!
My husband has recently started working out with Caroline and he’s loving her and good thing is I’m not even jealous but so proud of it 😂 Another amazing workout in the books.. it was absolutely phenomenal.
My favorite, upper body workout!🔥 I love how this HARD workout burn even from the beginning! We realized that the war just began when it comes to biceps one! And yes, I really enjoy this workout, Caroline! Thank you so much❤
The most challenging upper body yet! I thought my eyes were going to pop out! 👀.. had to put feet flat on the floor for the dips and used my new weights for some of the moves. I feel like I can lift an elephant! 💪👍👏👏👏👏❤️
Caroline, I am so grateful for your videos. These arm workouts are exactly what I've been looking for, and I'm getting great results. I love how you challenge me! Thank you so much, and Happy New Year to you!
@L.S Hello there! Sounds like you're really enjoying your training sessions ... even at your working place! Way to go! 👊🏻🤩 Also read that you maybe be a team leader soon. Wishing you best of luck! Be so good, they can't ignore you! 😉😆
Good morning, dear Nikolina! Monday is here ... a new day, a new week ... but it's a short working week for you! Only three days and you'll be off! 👌🏻😄🥳 I did my planned workout (E III, day 6 'FUNDAMENTAL back, biceps & core') and it was really great! This new workout looks like an upper body destroyer! 😳😅 I bet you'll love this one! 🖤 Have a great day ahead! 🤗🥰
@L.S Wow you doing your workouts at work too..😊 Are they jealous? Or they want to workout with you? Here at my job I think that nobody is not for workouts which I do..when I said that I am doing my workouts at home for 5 days per week..nobody is nothing..
Good morning Girvantors ❤️. Hope all had amazing HOT HIIT. My Quads fire and expected upperbody today and we got same. Last week of advent calendar so it will be tough. Let's smash it. Have great workout Girvantors.
Missed the HIIT yesterday... finally needed that rest day! Going to try to accomplish that AND this upper body this morning. I'm sure I'll be toast afterwards!

I am loving these shorter (30 min or less) split body videos. Hope you’ll continue incorporating these into your repertoire. Thank you!!!
Brilliant 20 mins of upper body. Really felt each move. I've definitely been more focused with the shorter duration so. Thank you C xx ❤
What a way to start the day! Thank you CG. Have a fantastic day everyone! 💪
These 20 minutes are beyond amazing and I appreciate them all thank you so very much Caroline😇
my upperbody is finished after epic heat day 32🔥💪🏽 I should wash my hair before my arms know what's going on🤣🤣
Love, love, love the triset format of this workout!! Definitely worked all of the upper body in another brilliant workout by Caroline-thank you!!! 🤗💕
Thank you Caroline for making these videos. Your workouts are a gift to us. You are beautiful!!💕💕💕
This is my favourite upper body workout ever, it tackles every area and the fact that its shorter benefits me greatly because I can fit it in before work. Thank you CG!
The second time around, I upped my weights to 15kg Dumbbells and 5kg Dumbbells. What a workout, tough but will leave you feeling pumped and strong. 💪💖
All done! Add-on too. That was a solid all-rounder with a great mix of training methods all thrown in to keep it lively. Used 20 lbs for chest, 25 lbs for rows (but just got in 6 super slow reps), 10s all else. After following these programs, one gets better at judging the weights to pull out, but it never hurts when Caroline suggests you might want to go lighter here and there! Rarely do I think I should have gone heavier! And, if I do, I go off script and play with tempo a bit. I always get a solid workout no matter what. Thanks again! Hard to believe this is coming to an end soon.
Doing this right after HIIT from yesterday, right at 6am when its uploaded here. Love this series🙌🏻🙌🏻
Have fun, Anina!! 🔥
Hi Anina...well done...that’s impressive! Hope you enjoy your workouts! I loved this one! Matthew
I love this passion you have for fitness Anina! Keep going! 👍🏾
I use her workouts 20-30 minutes to supplement my running (main sport … endurance/ marathon length races) and, hands down, best routines for the time put in! I don’t do her leg workouts because it wears out my legs which are already spent but upper body and core are 👌🏽 thanks Caroline!
What a challenging workout! I love pushing myself to the max because the feeling afterwards is just so rewarding! I’m gonna love this for sure! 🔥💪🏻
Hi there, I always feel like wonderWoman after finishing Caroline's workout. The best feeling. Have a great workout 🔥
This is my go to upper body workout lately! I add battle ropes at the end for as long as I can. Sometimes I’ll do this workout twice through . The intensity is fire on this one!
Hello ! Just wanted to say thank you to Caroline for all these amazing workout, I'm a fellow follower for about a year and a half now and these workout really helped me loving myself and overcome my ED. Thank you again ❤ Merry Christmas and greetings from France !
Hello Manon! Thank you so much for sharing your journey. I know you have been working so hard and to know that you are gaining so many benefits makes me genuinely so happy.
Loving yourself and taking care of your body is a privilege. Thank you for taking time from your day to share your progress Manon.
Lots of love Caroline x
@@CarolineGirvan you're doing wonderful things for others, thank you for your answer, I wish you the best 🌟
Customized upper body day for me today! This session was the first part; super fun! Thanks, Caroline!
It’s amazing how you make our days so much brighter with only 20min Caroline
I am a new subscriber and I can not thank you enough!! Your workouts are exactly what I have been looking for (and I have been looking for a while)! Your workouts are straight-to-the-muscle workouts; no useless filler talk. I love them!! They're awesome. Thank you again!!
Hard work today, actually! I love how my arms burn after this workout. Thank you Caroline. 20 minutes but truly hard ❤️
I missed so many days visiting family over Christmas - it was good to get back into the routine with an arm workout.
I Did the HIIT and glutes yesterday and I really feel so great with lots of sweat! Now this is what I have been missing - upper body! It looks it is going to be another short but effective workout! Have a great workout everyone !
It was so effective Peach. Hope you have lots of fun with this. The slower the more 🔥🔥🔥
Morning Peach....have a great workout...I’m sure you’ll love it! Happy Monday! Matthew
@@annereidy515 craving for more! haha... adding the optional! It was indeed fun Anne!

The only upper body workout which is quick and gives a good satisfaction of the workout. Thank you for the great work Caroline. 💪❤️ Let's grow stronger with her workouts guys💥
Yesterday I thought, there has to be an abs or chest session soon. And here is one. Thank you ☺️
You’ll so much enjoy this workout! Have fun! Matthew

Done a few of Caroline's workouts because I think they're the best dumbell workouts on youtube, but was looking to amp up the intensity of my arm workouts in general and.... HARD is an understatement! Swore multiple times during this video 😂 awesome workout definitely feeling stronger after this, thank you!
Didn't we all just Luv yesterdays HOT HIIT?! So Fun! We're IN for another Challenge. It's HARD..We GOT this! 😆👊

Hi Trish, yesss! Those hops and hit feet where so fun to do... And a little Painful might say 😉but we're ready for another challenge. Have a great day 🤗
@@luislenoirstaraceverde2493 Hi Luis! 🤗 Today's sesh was challenging. Slower made the DBs feel heavier. It was fun pushing through the burn. Enjoy! Have a lovely Monday! 😊
Morning Trish...wasn’t this such a brilliant upper body session! Yes aren’t dips always tough! Have a lovely day! Matthew
@@matthewalmond8274 Hi Matthew. Oh yes! Solid Upperbody Sesh in 20min. Burn was intense. Feels great. Have a lovely day too! 😊
Day 20th Completed with 1 litre water bottles as dumbbells! On a layover and had no options. Still upper body on fire. Thank you Caroline 😊
I love this one! Old school and right to the point
Right to the point exactly! 🎯 Love it!!!
You are so strong, Caroline. I'm just doing 8-lb weights. Thank you for offering these shorter workouts! I just came from being sick for two weeks during the holidays. So these are great!!!
Oh em gee!!! This was hard! I could barely do the dips my arms were that jiggly.😂 thank you Caroline for another explosive workout
Extraordinary upper body session! It has everything! I added it to a shoulder session day from EPIC I, and my upper muscles are on fire! Thanks, Caroline!
My husband has recently started working out with Caroline and he’s loving her and good thing is I’m not even jealous but so proud of it 😂
Another amazing workout in the books.. it was absolutely phenomenal.
🤣🤣
Excellent fast Monday morning workout! Perfect for the busy holiday season.
I can't believe I did it after a 2 months stopping from the gym for having low iron and vitamin d ! Wow I am soon proud of myself ! ❤🎉💃
My favorite, upper body workout!🔥
I love how this HARD workout burn even from the beginning! We realized that the war just began when it comes to biceps one! And yes, I really enjoy this workout, Caroline! Thank you so much❤
Loved this and love these quick workouts
The burn was real ... loved every minute. thank you so much.
Oh yeah!
The most challenging upper body yet! I thought my eyes were going to pop out! 👀.. had to put feet flat on the floor for the dips and used my new weights for some of the moves. I feel like I can lift an elephant! 💪👍👏👏👏👏❤️
😆 excellent Karen!! Sounds like you focused and lifted with intent so you got a lot from these 20 minutes!! Excellent!! Way to go Karen!!🤩👊🏼
Caroline, I am so grateful for your videos. These arm workouts are exactly what I've been looking for, and I'm getting great results. I love how you challenge me! Thank you so much, and Happy New Year to you!

This new workout looks like an upper body destroyer! 😳😅 I bet you'll love this one! 🖤 Have a great day ahead! 🤗🥰
@L.S Wow you doing your workouts at work too..😊
Are they jealous? Or they want to workout with you?
Here at my job I think that nobody is not for workouts which I do..when I said that I am doing my workouts at home for 5 days per week..nobody is nothing..
Hello Caroline, I did this one again! You are truly inspirational, strong, and amazing! Thank you so much! 💪

Hey Caroline! I just finished this workout and it was stellar, as usual! I had abdominal surgery back in September, so this was the 1st lifting workout I’ve done in almost 4 months! Oh how I’ve missed you and your workouts so much! Thank you for posting such high quality content! Merry Christmas to you and your family! 🎄💪
That was tougher than I expected. The lack of rest makes you feel it about the second set of shoulder press.
Caroline you never disappoint.🔥 Thank you for being my weight workout buddy!👍🏻
Wow this upper body looks amazing 😍
HAPPY monday lady Mora i hope you enjoyed ,,hard,,but im sure you do easy😊😉
Merry Monday, dear Mora! No matter how tough this week goes, face every challenge with courage! 👊🏻🤩 Wishing you a great day and a succesful week! 🥰

Incrivel já estamos a finalizar estes treinos fantásticos de 20 min ,chegamos á ultima semana, vamos aproveitar bem e sempre com diversão thank you Caroline
I think we definitely will feel it, thanks for always keeping us guessing.
Same volume of a 30 min workout but condensed in 20! It was hard and my upper body is on fire ❤️🔥
That rocked! I loved that one. Thank you so much Caroline. I've gotten so much stronger with your workouts. Xxx
Is anyone else scared of dropping the weight on their face 😂 ?
Yes I skipped that part 😅
Yes
@@SuiteErinique mkk
Hahaha meee! 😂
Sure
Best short workout in the series. Covers whole upper body (except abs).
Who else felt those dips😮
I did😭😭😭
First time doing your Upper Body Workout, it was a challenge but, I was able to do all but one. My goal is to be able to complete the workout without stopping. Thank you for making such a great workout
