- As you know, building strength is a huge factor in speeding up metabolism. In this workout we'll be doing 6 exercises to get your heart pumping and your muscles saying "What is going on?!?!?". Changing up a routine is key for seeing changes in your body. We'll be doing 3 rounds today but you can definitely start off with just 1 round and gradually work up to 3 rounds over time. Each exercise will be done for 45 seconds but again, please modify the time to work for you. If you can only do 10-15 seconds, that is okay, too. We all have to start somewhere and 10-15 seconds is better than nothing, so start slow and be proud of whatever you do today.
This is a full body workout since all of the exercises are challenging different muscles in your body at once. Building strength helps with weight loss and low impact exercises are a great way to do exercises safely. This is a great home workout for beginners who want to start slow.
If you enjoyed the workout, please subscribe and write a comment! I'd love to hear from you!
Wishing you improved health!

Hello* Jules~ I think this was the hardest video of yours I've done so far, and I've done a lot. Thank you profusely for changing to a total of "only" three rounds. My FitBit was on overtime alerting me for being in heart rate target zone -- not that my sweat glands hadn't already done so, ha ha! Giving you credit for getting me fit and strong enough to accomplish this one. As always, thank you.
The *asterisk after hello was to emphasize the first four letters of that word. 😝
Lol, I had to laugh when I read your last sentence, Chris. Yes, this workout is definitely a challenging one, and I hope you are proud for doing it!
@@ImprovedHealth Oh phew that you saw the silly in that last sentence. After I hit SEND I realized this was on a public forum and not everyone has my Far Side sense of humor. Admitting to feeling proud after doing that session is an understatement. 💪
OHMYGOODNESS JULES! I just came back around to this workout...I'm going to rate this "MOST INTENSE" 💪
Yes, this one is a tough one for sure.
Mt goodness..like I’ve posted before, doesn’t matter 20 minutes an hour, my body feels it and sweaty.. another good one.
Thank you!
Thanks so much, Jules. I did this from the get-go. It was not easy because of my injured arms and knees. I like the modifications very much. I am very pleased that I hung in there. The best part is: I didn’t whine! I look forward to becoming stronger and be able to move completely to the floor, rather than use the wall for the planks and push ups. Thank you. This is so good to slowly build up again.
Yay! I am so happy to hear you were able to do the modified versions so you could complete the workout. That is perfect:) And good for you for pushing forward (and not whining!) 😉
Dear Jules, I still find this workout the most challenging however I definitely feel stronger and fitter and incorporate it once a week in my routines. Many thanks once again.
This is the hardest workout I have on my channel so you are doing great if you can do this one! I'm so happy to read you are feeling stronger and more fit...such a great feeling:)
Dear Jules, Merry Christmas and thanks for all the fabulous workouts this year. This workout was my biggest challenge by far but I have kept at it and now do 3 rounds once a week. Best wishes Margaret Hogan(age 62 years young)
Hi Margaret, this is the toughest workout I have put up on my channel. I knew it would be tough for a lot of people but I wanted to give the option for those who needed more of a challenge. I am thrilled to read you can do 3 rounds...that is GREAT! Thank you so much for your comment and I wish you a lovely Christmas as well. 💗
Hullo Jules, your hair style is gorgeous!
This was way way way more difficult than the rest, but am game for the challenge.
Thank you for modifying the Burpees...this is manageable... push-ups, I still can't do on the floor.
The sequence of exercises is so thoughtful....much gratitude 😊
Aw, thanks for the compliment:) I was ready for a change. Yes, you are right...this is definitely more of a challenging workout but I am hoping viewers will modify the time and do what works best for them. For the push-ups, try using the wall instead as a first step. Just have your feet further from the wall (and good grippy shoes on). You'll still benefit from the wall push-ups.
Week 4, day 6 done. Excited to see what comes next!
I love that you're looking forward to what's next. For series 4, I only created the 2 days of intervals (day 1 and 3). I felt that people would want to pick and choose workouts based on their interests and goals by series 4 so I only created the two interval workouts. My suggestion is to stick with a 20-40 minute cardio workout for day 2 (ideally, add in a full body strength workout or do an all-in-one video that includes strength exercises); day 4 do just cardio; day 5 back to cardio and strength; day 6 a long workout; day 7 cardio. Let me know if that all makes sense to you.
Good morning . Just want to let you know I feel this workout today.. Wow. As I look in the mirror, I see my body changing for the better. You have been a good influence and I appreciate the time and effort you put into these videos. Thank you so much!
Yes, day 6 is the hardest workout I have on my channel...it's a tough one compared to my usual ones. I felt it was time to give more of a challenge so just do what you can. Even if you do 1 or 2 sets, you'll benefit:)
Great workout
Great workout. Made some modifications as needed.
I find this the hardest set of the series, however, my muscles will thank me, so I thank you for that. Take care.
Day 6 is definitely a tough one so kudos to you for doing it, Barb!
this is the hardest one I've done in this channel the 60 minutes dance workout is not even near this 20 min intensive compound exercises 😅 more of this please because this video showed me how weak is my body.
Thanks for the feedback and request. This one is definitely more challenging and I’m glad to hear that you were up for it!
I love your videos! I started with the chair exercises for seniors at my nursing home and I found that to be aworkout for myself, so itried this one at home and I am feeling the burn! and definitely feeling productive :D
That’s awesome! I’m so happy to hear some of the workouts work for your residents and others for you!
I like the format of this workout - one set of instructions and 2 sets without instructions!! I modified some of the exercises but very beneficial!! Thanks
Thanks so much for your feedback, Deb:)
Muy buena clase, me ha gustado mucho! 👏👏👍👍🏵️🌹🌸
This is definitely more of a challenging workout compared to my usual workouts. If you are fairly new to strength training, start with just one set of this workout. See how you feel, allow the muscles to get used to the change and then try two sets the next week. If you can't get onto the floor or have a difficult time getting on the floor, use one of my other strength training workouts instead:) The main thing is to try to do two days of strength training (whether it's this workout or another strength training workout).
This workout was very challenging but fabulous.
Thank you so much, Margaret!
Ok, so I thought I'd try this one yesterday BUT I'm not ready for this. I did as much as I could do but my body will not let me do burpees. I could feel it this morning though! I did jumping jacks at the burpee part of it.
Yes, this is a tough one...the most challenging one I have on my channel actually. You can definitely substitute it with another strength training workout:)
Love all your workout!
Thank you so much for subscribing and for letting me know that you're enjoying the workouts. If you liked this one, you can find more like it under the 'intermediate level' playlists.
I read the comments to see if it was just me that thought this was hard. I am determined to do these in an effort to build strength. I was laughing out loud at myself trying to get up and down. Next time I will use the rest period to get in position.😳
This is definitely a tougher workout but I love your determination, Patty (and your sense of humour)!
Hard but I’ve loved it ! Because of my bad hip I had to modify almost everything except the squats, but it was nice since I pressed on my wooden bar which is perfect for my height (I am tall). Thank you again for all that you do !!! I am going on holiday so I will try to follow your program…if not I will go back to it after 😂🥰😊🇫🇷🇲🇺🏋️♀️😍🌺🐬🐠🌞✈️🏝🏖
Have a great vacation, Nata!!!
Uff da, as they say in Minnesota. This one was challenging, and that's a good thing :)
Yes, this is definitely a harder one.
Thank you
love your hair!
Hi! Thanks Chris! It was overdue for a change.
Hi Jules. Could you please give me an idea of what exercise to do to replace this one? The reason is, after doing this one 4 or 5 days ago, I’ve really not been able to exercise since, as my muscles really hurt so much 😓. I’m ok now and ready to do day 7. I won’t be able to do day 6 ever again, far too painful for me. Could I maybe repeat 5 instead ? My problem is getting down on the floor, sadly 😞. Thank you lovely 🥰 xx
Hi Agnes, I am so sorry to hear about the challenges with this workout. It is definitely the hardest one I have put on my channel. I wanted to give those who needed more a challenge what they might need. If someone isn't used to strength training it is normal to have soreness and even if I take a week off due to vacation or whatever and then push myself too hard when returning to exercise, I feel soreness for days (and I have to remind myself not to do too much because the soreness is too uncomfortable). It's always best to start slow if there has been a week or more off between strength training workouts. Anyway, I understand floor exercises are also very hard for many people so I'd like to suggest this workout instead: th-cam.com/video/66kfC7qEJTQ/w-d-xo.html With this one, you can choose whether to do the exercise seated or standing. At this point in the program it's really beneficial to do weights at least twice a week. But, you don't need to push as hard as the day 6 workout. Use weights that are somewhat challenging but again, ensure your form is correct (you can have a mirror in front of you to ensure your form is correct). Let me know how it goes.
@@ImprovedHealth thank you so very much Jules for the speedy reply. I will add this one into my week. And yes, I love using the weights also, it’s just the floor that’s a problem, lol. Thank you again lovely, have a great day 😘
@@agnesbarnes5888 I know most of my viewers don't like floor exercises so you are not alone:)
It was a good workout but I would've liked a warm up and cool down included please.
Jules has a great 5 min warm up video.
I've workout enough that I know what to do as a cool down.
Hello Jules:
I tried but this is not for me. 2 reasons:
My 2 dogs want to join me for the floor exercises.
I have problems getting up from floor. Seniors don't want to be reminded of their age.
Thanks anyway. I will be back for day 7.
I know a lot of people do have a hard time with floor exercises but I also wanted to give options for those who can get onto the floor comfortably. I also thought of my dad who is 74. My dad never worked out in his life but started working out in the past two years. He started doing push ups within the last year and now does 380 (!!!) push ups A DAY! Yes, crazy. He does 30 at a time and will do them throughout the day. My dad also suffered from osteoarthritis and no longer suffers with it because of the exercises he followed from his PT. When creating this video, I thought if my dad can do it, then I can put it out there. It's all about starting slow and building up slowly over time. Of course this video will not work for everyone but I think if people take it slow, a lot of people can do it, even a lot of seniors out there. I appreciate your feedback and I think a lot of people will agree with you that it's not for them but I do hope it will work for others:)
Amo te seguir❤
You have broken me Jules! I had to admit defeat and just lie there on the floor and watch you! This might just be an ABBA workout day instead next week😆
This one is a tougher one compared to the other workouts in this series. Did you complete series 1 & 2? Each series gets harder.
@@ImprovedHealth yes I completed both series 1 and 2 for the 4 weeks and had been feeling pretty pleased with myself for keeping up with you. I certainly found yesterday's hour workout demanding, perhaps I was just a bit tired after it. Still looking forward to day 7 tomorrow though 😆🤞
Awesome. Day 6 is more challenging and yes, you’re right, even harder after doing the long workout the day before.
Hi can this be done standing or 3 to 4 steps up the stairs. As I can’t do floor. Thks wish u had done an alternatives . I’m planning ahead looking at this! Done 1 and 2 and now start series 3 next wk. I have umbilical hernia and bigger boobs lol.. and can’t do the mountain climbers etc on the floor.
Don't worry about doing this day, Val. Just switch it for the strength training on day 2. It's okay to do that one twice a week instead and you'll still definitely benefit from it.
I really feel you'd have more likes if you would change up your music track!
Thanks for your feedback. I've been using a new music provider for the last several months.
Wow! Now that was hard ... for me 😂
This is one of the most challenging workouts on my channel, so don't worry, it's hard for a lot of people!
What weight would you suggest to use for this workout
It really depends on what works for you. To find the best weight, when you lift a weight 12x, by the time you get to 10, 11, 12 repetitions, it should be getting quite challenging. For each exercise, you might need to use a different weight. For example, for back exercises, I use between 15-20 lb weights but for triceps I only use 5 lb weights. I hope that helps.
Very hard
Yes, but...please do what YOU can do. Even if you do each exercise for 10 or 15 seconds and rest for 45 seconds, you'll eventually build strength and move up in time.
@@ImprovedHealth Thanks
How heavy are the weights you're using?
Hi Tesser, I'm using a 5 lb weight but you can use whatever you feel you need in order to get the most out of the workout. You could even do it without weights the first time and then decide what to use the next time.
🌷🌷🌷🌹🌹🌹
i cannot do the burpee exercise. is there an alternative?
This is the hardest workout on my channel so kudos to you for trying it. If you’d like, you can do day 2 instead of this one since it also includes strength exercises. Alternatively, you can do a step out/out/in/in quickly to raise your heart rate instead of the burpees.
