    Good morning team! I have been quiet for the past few days, but I’ve been working out with you. First, Caroline you are crazy good, but I don’t want to see that chair again😳🤣🤣🤣 second, I feel someone needs to hear this. This is Your workout journey, emphasis on “YOUR”. Many people see Caroline and say, she’s got a great body, and I want to look like her, or I can do what she does. Understand, YOU are beautiful, because you are you, not by trying to look like someone else. Caroline is beautiful because she’s, her. Everyone is made and built differently, and you will not look exactly like the next person, and it’s okay. Don’t get frustrated or down because you can’t get her legs, arms or abs. Don’t get upset if you can’t lift what she does. Stay the course and you will see YOUR own growth, strength, and transformation. Be happy that YOU are in the journey that will take YOU to YOUR goals. Love you all.

      Hi Amber...I couldn’t agree with you more!! We are all individuals with our own personal goals and for each person each workout is their workout. It doesn’t matter what weights you use etc. What matters is that we enjoy our workouts, that we support each other rather than competing, and that we work out in the way that suits us. As I say we all have our own individual goals...and from what I can see we are achieving some brilliant things! Great comment and so pleased you posted this! Matthew

      Absolutely so well said Amber!
      And what you said about weights... overtime most of you will need heavier weights! And do more push ups, lunge lower etc! It’s a fun challenge with yourself!
      I never have focused on aesthetics in my training such as train for smaller waist, do this for thinner thighs or bigger glutes etc I prefer nailing that first clapping push up than an extra 1/2 inch off waist. Train for that feeling, the confidence, the empowerment to take on life whatever it throws to you! And of course knocking out those push ups! And smashing an EPIC HIIT session!! 😆😆😆👊🏼

    This was one of the most difficult ones for me. Did half of it in the morning and the other half at night. Also, took too many breaks. But I finished it. Don't know if today's workout increased my strength but it definitely increased my willpower. I'm so proud of myself. Thank you so much Caroline. You are changing my life. 🦄❤💪🏻

    I can do this! I will do this! I will smash it 👊 Focus and contract my core for a smooth sail. I’m not here to check my weight or loose weight because that will only demotivate me. I love how my body feels and how much I have progress with my strength. I’m here because I enjoy every workout and simply love fitness especially weight lifting.It’s fun and always exciting, it’s my kinda of lifestyle. I hope everyone is feeling optimistic as it gets challenging but most importantly you enjoy this program she has created. So let’s do the Bulgarian burn 🦵🦵🦵!

Your approach is so much the right one i.e. not to worry about weight loss or gain but to focus on how much you enjoy the workouts and how much strength you are gaining. Just the perfect way to approach this series! Have a great workout and a lovely day! Matthew

The after burn on the targeted muscle groups is amazing. I can always feel it in my sleep & the next day.

I estimate that roughly I did 500 lunges (250 on each side) and 350 single leg raises (175 on each side)! The only exercise where I couldn’t match reps on each side was the pulses...I just couldn’t do as many on the second leg!! Another great workout, Caroline, Thank You!!! Matthew

    This is my second time doing this series. The first time, I was post-acl replacement, my third, and had been non-weight bearing for 6 months. Needless to say, I had to modified everything. Still, it was super motivating to see progress and I made it through on my terms. Fast forward to present day, I decided to do this series again. I am thrilled to say that this time around I can now finish every session without taking breaks, I am working with 80% of CG's weight, and I don't need to modify any exercises. My only 'cheat' is that I am doing the workouts every second day, not 5 days per week. Still, I am feeling strong and looking forward to building up my strength and endurance even more. Thanks for being a fantastic community!

    Caroline! I did the Tabata yesterday and oh how it burnt! I was able to push my self to the limit, I felt sick 😂
    And I’m so proud of myself because of it. I feel muscle soreness in my quads, which I always find difficult to do. That’s a milestone on its own for me. My body is changing. I’m more confident, and more capable.
    I feel so so strong!
    Usually Bulgarian lunges make me nervous. But you know what? I’ve come so so far.

I could barely do 5 Bulgarians when it first appeared in Epic 1 and now over 30 mins of it at 7-12 reps on each side 😍 The progress is VERY, VERY real 💪🏻

    😵‍💫 Oh, I most definitely like all of your workouts, but this one was just a constant struggle for me -- I was struggling with my balance, with switching legs in time, and most of all I was struggling with the chair, which wasn't quite steady and was rocking back and forth, left and right, making noises and hitting the wall all the time. I thought it was going to break towards the end but I guess it was just enduring this workout together with me. =) This workout tested my will rather than my strength, and I'm really glad I didn't quit (although I wanted to very much) and completed this crazy Day 37. Bulgarian nightmare.
    Thanks a lot for this test of patience 🙏

      That sounds terrifying haha 😂 Definitely frustrating having a non-optimal setup, but hey, it shows we can adapt to the situation! Instead of a chair, I was using a bed with a boxspring mattress on it and that added a whole new level of balance challenge on the step-ups O_o Still loved this workout though and I can say I'm far less scared of Bulgarian lunges than I was before.😃
