“You could change it the other way around and do bulgarian lunges” 😳 Ummm, thanks Caroline, I appreciate the suggestion 😂. Another brilliant workout. Loved the step ups. Thank you Caroline 🤩
As usual, I'm dripping with sweat. I always feel like I can conquer the world after I finish working out with Caroline! Thank you so much for being here. 💗🔥💗🔥
I'm on my second round of Iron. I love it so much. I've done EPICS I, II, III, and Heat, but I just love the classic strength training with Iron. Just want to say thank you Caroline for all you do. You've shared your workouts and knowledge and I'm a happier and healthier person for it. I hope you have the best day ❤
I'm cycling this series over and over again, After a year (7 cycles) I found doing this specific session with 11kg......and I started with 6kg finding it hard ❤ You do you ❤
All of Caroline’s tips are helpful, but this might be my favorite: “Maybe think of something nice right now”😂 All I could think about is we’re almost there! The best ending to the most amazing week! 👊 Now looking forward to this one ahead. ❤️👏🏻
@jessica Marie! Yes I cracked up laughing out loud seeing that tip on screen despite agonizing over the hammer curl hold! That sentence will now be engraved in my brain for subsequent workouts! Let’s smash this one too 🙌🏼
Hi Jessica, I loved that tip too and I actually tried to think of something nice! It was really needed during the supersets. Have a lovely week ahead! 😍
You do You weights today was 17.5kg Elevated squats went very well with good depth. Step Up I really did feel the burn on all the rotation but especially on the side step. The Lunges certainly do the business ahead of the Step Up. Finisher was great 👍
Hi Anthony...I just loved the step ups today...good, intense bodyweight work! Just what I love! There were no Bulgarians in the workout...but then did the add on...by the time we got to the jumps and hops I felt ready to give up...but I didn't!! A great workout...I loved it! I used 12.5 kg...but lots of extra work with the add on and I used my yoga block for all the lunges! I enjoyed myself. Have a great BH day...the sun has just come out here and it's getting very warm! See you tomorrow! Matthew
@@matthewalmond8274 No add on for myself Matthew I just did 30mins on the threadmill. Trying to cut up a little. Hopefully that will also help the legs tomorrow as I tend to notice the workout the next day using the heavier weights. Bit miserable here today but at least it has stopped raining. Have a great Bank Holiday Monday 😀 looking forward to tomorrow 👌
Amazing! I've never really done step ups before. I really felt this one. Had to do D20 and D21 back to back and I am one sweaty mess! Loving it! AT 68 years young I an amazed at not only the strength I've gained over the last 10 months, but my overall balance when do exercise has greatly improved! WooHoo!
I miss iron series for 1 week.. 🗓 Great come back! Done with 2 x 12,5 kg + add on (oh! - hops and jumps) + stretching + 1,5 h padel. Box - cool option! Thank you very much and see you tomorrow 🤎🖤
“Lovely leg” day and what a session that was, oh my word that was tough, your creativity never fails to amaze me, thank you once again gorgeous lady🙏 Have a super BH be wherever you all are, and enjoy this little “gem”!🌹
Week 5! What?! And it's Leg Day! Ready! Already found something to Step on. Let's GO and have FUN!😆👊 Have a Great workout! Day 21 Smashed!! Enjoyed this pretty Intense workout esp. the Step-ups. Twas Fun focusing on balance and not using the other leg. Burn got so intense at forward lean ones. Also loved the Calves and Finisher. Legs were shaking. Awesome Sesh! 🥰 Thanks Caroline! ❤️ Happy Monday!
Hi Trish...and happy Monday to you too! So glad you enjoyed this...I loved it! You are so right about the burn on those forward leaning step ups! Just so intense! I did the add on too...I was just missing the Bulgarian lunges...and now my legs are finished off! Have a happy Monday! Matthew
@@matthewalmond8274 Hi Matthew. Yep, really enjoyed those Step-ups. Glad I found a sturdy stool to step on. Wish we could do Step-ups again in the future. Well done also doing the add-on. Couldn't do it as my glutes and legs were done after the finisher. Just going for a walk later. Have a great day! See you tomorrow! 😊
Super fun legs session! The steps-ups felt incredibly good! That focus on muscle-mind connection had an enormous role today! Loved it! Thanks, Caroline!
I recently took a 4 month break from doing any strength training at all as I was going through a difficult time - I’ve just been getting back into it again over the last couple of weeks and it’s been fun catching up on all the workouts I missed from you. I still have loads to go! Thanks so much for sharing these for free.
I loved the step up AND I thank you for adding calves!!! I hope everyone has a FANTASTIC week! Thank you Caroline and all of Girvan Nation 😁for your support and motivation !!
I pulled out my old 14 inch stepper from back in the day. What a surprise to find it was too low for me! Thanks Caroline! Our dining room chair sufficed nicely. This was a fun, fun workout. Brilliantly creative and tough! Our Coach is the best!
Step ups?! Bring them on in each session. My new favs added to the leg day list. You amaze us with your brilliant creativity each and every day, Caroline! Have a successful training week!
It’s been awhile since we did step-ups and there’s plenty of them in today’s session. I guess the bodyweight exercises will be the hardest but who knows? Supersets!! Super intense session!! Super feeling afterwards!!
Morning Devansh...I’m certainly looking forward to the step ups...it’s a while since we last did them...and there’s an intense calf sequence too! Yes...often the case that the bodyweight exercises turn out to be the hardest! Have a great workout today, Devansh! Catch up later! A bit later...I see you’ve smashed this once again! Well done! Wasn’t it great...I loved the step ups as I thought I would...especially those forward leaning ones at the end! What a burn! Then Bulgarians for add on...after all the rest that was certainly a tough add on today! Enjoy the rest of your day! Matthew
I know! I think the last time we had step ups was back in Epic 2? Anyway, they have one of the highest glute activation on EMG analysis, but takes a little practice to really feel it in the glutes ☺ Have an awesome session, Devansh! Looking forward to accomplishing this workout later today 💪
This leg workout looks super intense today, what a smashing way to start week 5 - what 😲!!! How did that happen. Nice to be revisiting the step ups, so grateful to Caroline for her detailed description of this movement, and the rest if the workout exercises. The calves are definitely going to be on fire 🔥 by the end of this session. Lots of calf stretching today or going up and down stairs is going to be "ouchie" for sure 🤨 Have a super Bank holiday for those in the UK 🇬🇧. Ready to step up - you bet ya. Let's go...... 🙂👍👍👋
Thank you so much for all you do. Just keep me going and feel more stronger and healthy. I lost my mother last week and was not able to do anything coz I was taking care of her since a month in another country. Still used to see your video and was feeling tht inner peace. Now I am trying to find my life without mom and dad and just not abl to move ahead but still gonna give my best to get my life on the track. Thank you mam for everything you do.
οαου και κουτί έχωωω...❤💪💪💪Καλημέρα στο ποιο γλυκό κορίτσι!!!!🙏 Να έχεις μία όμορφη ημέρα πάμε να απολαύσουμε την προπόνηση σου Caroline έχεις αγάπη πολύ από Ελλάδα!!!🇬🇷👋❤️🙏🙏💪
One of my favourite leg sessions so far. I really liked the stepper. Used a chair, but hey, I can feel it. Super sets and giant sets are always great. Caroline! Thank you!
Okay I’m so excited for this one! I LOVE step-ups and calves, this is going to burn so good 🔥 🔥 🔥 Also, who else died laughing at the CG Tip; “Maybe think of something nice right now”? That came at the exact moment that I needed it, I swear this woman reads my mind sometimes.
Brilliant! Love the variety today! Those step ups were brilliant! Loved every minute! I used my daughter's piano bench for the step ups 😁It was just the right height. Get excited about leg day everyone! Have a wonderful day!
Hi Connie...yes lots of fun in iron series! How did you get on with your step ups...I know you were excited to do them! I used an old, but very sturdy kitchen chair...it worked well! I loved the workout...did you do the add on? That was very hard after all the rest...but good to do some Bulgarians! Have a lovely day! Matthew
@@matthewalmond8274 Hi Matthew, I haven’t had a chance to workout for the day until after lunch the earliest. Great that your kitchen chair worked well! I have a workout bench which should work for me. Am looking forward to it. I don’t usually do the optional add-on… I am still kind of a beginner, though feel much stronger recently, am usually pretty tired after the main workout everyday. Hopefully soon I will gradually be up to the add-on afterwards. Have a great evening Matthew!
@@matthewalmond8274 thank you for your kind words! I’m absolutely grateful to be in this inclusive virtual community with all the nice and best people in the world! Have an awesome Tuesday!
One of my favourites 😍 absolutely loved the slow step up; my working leg was screaming at me by the 6th rep. Loved every minute of it. Thank you Caroline. 😊
I am truly loving this Iron Series using old school weight lifting and lots of variety to keep your muscles growing and guessing. Todays leg workout was amazing. I love step ups.
Step-up working out at home is new to me! Thanks Caroline for all your amazing workout as well as always being innovative for us to have endless fun whilst getting fit!!
Hi Connie, I always refrain from step ups due to the stability however I will give this a go using a chair and hopefully that works. Have a wonderful workout 😍
@@yasminealhalaby7118 Hi Yasmine...I dud mine using an old kitchen chair...but one that is very solid and that worked for me! I use it for Bulgarian lunges too! The main thing is that whatever you use must be really stable and about the right height...about knee height is good! Hope you have fun! Matthew
@@yasminealhalaby7118 I know what you mean. I have weak ligaments on the right knee which causes pain sometimes so I have to be very careful too. Also I’m a petite so the step can’t be too high up either. Let’s attempt this safely and modify if necessary 🙌🏼
Caroline always delivers! Yesterday I ordered a step up because I love the burn and then decided to see how many Caroline step up workouts there are and was surprised to not see many. Then I see this new video and literally jumped for joy! Caroline always knows how to cover all the bases based on equipment and moves. Absolutely loving this series! I'm so excited to STEP UP to this workout. Thank you Caroline for everything you do!!
Leg day 😍 I have a feeling that this one is gonna be so fun and will go by fast! I spent the past weekend gathering with good friends and delicious food. Now I’m ready to reset and get myself back on track. Let’s go!
Hi Yiying...so glad to hear what a lovely weekend you have had with your friends! You’ll love this workout...as you say the time flies by! Enjoy the step ups! Happy Monday! Matthew
Hi Haasini...if you love step ups you will so much enjoy this workout! I loved it...and if you want more there’s a super intense add on today! Have fun! Matthew
Just finished day 21 and I love this series. I have been consistent with Iron and look forward to working out with Caroline every morning. Love the music and find it resonates through out the day and makes me stay focused with my goals. Thank you Caroline for all you do for us!
Love this one! Caroline I love your workouts-they’ve been such a great tool for helping me recover postpartum. I had done a few while I was pregnant but I *needed* them after. I’ve come to look forward to them and enjoy the quiet time where I’m just working on me. I still can’t believe these programs are free. I finished End Game and am halfway through Iron. Thank you for the amazing resources!
I loved this too!! Some exercises I just love bodyweight! Plus I’m always very cautious of fatigue and stepping down! 😅 Well done Suzy!! And happy Monday!! Smashed it!! 👊🏼🤩
First time doing step ups. Loved it! This was so fun. Iron series is going to be my go to I've bumped my weight by 1kg per side since the start of the program and managing to maintain form if going slightly slower. Thanks Caroline you're the best!!
Hitting Legs on a Monday is a great way to start the week, the new variations look great & the preamble to get the most out of it. Have a great workout everyone, Thanks for the upload Caroline & I’m sure I’m going to love this one !!! ☕️ espresso & let’s go! 😁
With so many step-ups, this is surely going to be a fiery session!! It's since long we have done step-ups!! Looking forward to do this workout today.. Thank you so much Caroline for all these brilliant workouts and all those extremely useful tips you provide with each workout.. You are the best trainer!! Forever grateful to you!! Have a wonderful day Caroline and everyone!!
Fantastic leg workout! I used a chair because I didn't have a box and I really liked those step-ups and going slowly was hard but felt GREAT! Thank you Caroline!!
Good morning Caroline, the week starts with this strong leg training. 🤩 Again great explanations from you and great addition with the box.👍🏻 Brings length and increase in movement. I'm looking forward to it in the evening. I wish you a happy and strong new week ...💙
Ooh step ups!! Only ever done them a couple of times in my life before and after listening to Caroline's form tips, I've definitely never done them properly before! Felt every muscle from my core down working hard in those, such good value haha. So challenging to me - I was v wobbly - but I loved feeling my muscles work like that 😊
Wow...what an incredible leg day to start this week! I really enjoyed the intensity of this session from the beginning up until the end. Thank you, Caroline! Happy Monday, everyone! Enjoy this amazing workout! :)
Good morning to all and happy Monday. I'm going to have to do yesterday's workout today due to the fact that yesterday I had an open house because our house is for sale and I've been cleaning during the week and pretty much exhausted. A good way to lose weight is to have your house for sale with showings during the week and in the evening and doing touch-ups every single day. I unfortunately lost a few pounds and not felt very strong due to the stress and anxiety I'm running up and down the stairs cleaning vacuuming etc. I will hopefully be able to do today's workout tomorrow. I have truly missed the workouts even though it's been only a couple days that I've missed but my energy level is about zero. Sunday's workout looks amazing and I am looking forward to doing it today
Amazing as usual Caroline!! I just have to tell you I absolutely love your energy :) Always so positive and upbeat... and it's such a small thing, but one of my favorite parts of each workout is when you say farewell!! Such a genuine smile. Thanks for all of your content. Outstanding :)
Looks awesome! I wasn’t able to do upper body from today (Sunday), so I am going to combine them both tomorrow (Monday). So it’ll be full body Friday & Monday. 😅 But I’m really looking forward to doing both workouts, so I’m sure it will fly by! Thank you so much, Caroline. We appreciate you! 🥰
What a fantastic challenging session! I love step ups it really makes me focus on my whole body. This series has really pushed me to keep good form, increase my weights and really challenge myself. Happy Monday everyone ❤
Wow....🔥🔥I loved this. Forgot how hard step ups are, particularly when you don't allow the none working leg to step onto the chair (I used my dining chair). Work for me on this gloomy bank holiday Monday. As my add on I did a May 2020 10 minute lower body workout where Caroline in out in her garden and its bright and sunny. Bit of a contrast today but least its not raining. Thank you, loved my little Bank Holiday pre work session ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Morning Nicola...hope your day at work goes well...it’s pretty grey and dull here too! I loved the step ups...weren’t they just so intense! As add on I did the Bulgarian lunges and now my legs are finished off! I love those early videos of Caroline in her garden in the beautiful sunshine! Hope you manage to have a happy day even if you are working! Catch up again soon! Matthew
@@matthewalmond8274 morning Matthew. Yes, that early summer of 2020 was glorious for weeks on end....even here 😂 Only an early today which is 8-4, grateful I'm not doing a long day.
Hello Nicola!! Soooo happy you loved this too! Yes so true about how much for challenging when you focus on just that front leg! And great you did an extra add on!! 😅 hopefully you have a wonderful more restful rest of day after this!! Way to go Nicole! 👊🏼🤩
Just finished the workout and I have to say that it was F*A*N*T*A*S*T*I*C💖😁 I tried to incorporate Caroline's tip and forget that I have a second leg on the ptep ups and just put my whole effort on one leg with slow pace!!! And OMG, the burn was out of this world😄 Loved it💖 I had also a little sabotage😄 My internet connection just failed during the calf raises...😆 After finishing the 1st set ran to reboot the rooter and straight to the 2nd set...and thank God connection came back by the end of the set😁 I also did the add on... so tough🥵 I hope, I won't paralyze tomorrow!!!😁LOL !!! Have a nice Monday everyone!!!
I. Love. Step Ups. LOVE! As the stretch is generally the most important part for hypertrophy, I suggest always doing calf work on an elevated surface for full range of motion and doing pulses/holds at the bottom of the range. Hope this helps someone!
Yes isn’t it amazing how quickly the time goes by! Shows just how much we are enjoying ourselves! I’ve finished the workout and I’ve survived...though part way through the add on when we were doing Bulgarian lunge hops then jumps I wasn’t totally sure that my survival was guaranteed! Enjoy the workout and have a lovely day! Matthew
Merci Caroline pour cette séance innovante d'originalité pour nous faire découvrir toujours plus d'option de travailler chaque groupe musculaire !!! Tu es fantastique !!! MERCI !

Used a 20 inch mini stepper and boy was a challenge to stay balanced on that thing! Slow and steady was key. What a fantastic workout! Loved it even though it killed me. Thank you so much Caroline…as always you make me work harder than I ever would!
“You could change it the other way around and do bulgarian lunges” 😳 Ummm, thanks Caroline, I appreciate the suggestion 😂. Another brilliant workout. Loved the step ups. Thank you Caroline 🤩

I'm cycling this series over and over again,
After a year (7 cycles)
I found doing this specific session with 11kg......and I started with 6kg finding it hard
❤ You do you ❤
Thank you, Caroline. That was fun! Do NOT underestimate those step ups, people, they are SUPER fatiguing when you go slow.
All of Caroline’s tips are helpful, but this might be my favorite: “Maybe think of something nice right now”😂 All I could think about is we’re almost there! The best ending to the most amazing week! 👊
Now looking forward to this one ahead. ❤️👏🏻
@jessica Marie! Yes I cracked up laughing out loud seeing that tip on screen despite agonizing over the hammer curl hold! That sentence will now be engraved in my brain for subsequent workouts! Let’s smash this one too 🙌🏼
Hi Jessica..I just loved that comment too! Not easy during those bicep holds ! As you say more great workouts to come this week!! Matthew
Hi Jessica, I loved that tip too and I actually tried to think of something nice! It was really needed during the supersets. Have a lovely week ahead! 😍
Morning Jessica - have a great workout ! 🔥
😆 yes!! The tips I share on screen are what I think about during the exercise and yes… I had to think of some nice!! 😆 well done Jessica! 👊🏼🤩
Forgot how much I love step ups!!! I used to dread leg days, but not anymore!! Thank you, CG!
You do You weights today was 17.5kg
Elevated squats went very well with good depth. Step Up I really did feel the burn on all the rotation but especially on the side step. The Lunges certainly do the business ahead of the Step Up. Finisher was great 👍

Didn't realise it was a Bank Holiday, have a fab day... Go treat yourself to a poke 😜🍦
Amazing! I've never really done step ups before. I really felt this one. Had to do D20 and D21 back to back and I am one sweaty mess! Loving it! AT 68 years young I an amazed at not only the strength I've gained over the last 10 months, but my overall balance when do exercise has greatly improved! WooHoo!

The main thing is that whatever you use must be really stable and about the right height...about knee height is good! Hope you have fun! Matthew
@@yasminealhalaby7118 I know what you mean. I have weak ligaments on the right knee which causes pain sometimes so I have to be very careful too. Also I’m a petite so the step can’t be too high up either. Let’s attempt this safely and modify if necessary 🙌🏼
Caroline always delivers! Yesterday I ordered a step up because I love the burn and then decided to see how many Caroline step up workouts there are and was surprised to not see many. Then I see this new video and literally jumped for joy! Caroline always knows how to cover all the bases based on equipment and moves. Absolutely loving this series! I'm so excited to STEP UP to this workout. Thank you Caroline for everything you do!!
Leg day 😍 I have a feeling that this one is gonna be so fun and will go by fast! I spent the past weekend gathering with good friends and delicious food. Now I’m ready to reset and get myself back on track. Let’s go!
Hi Yiying...so glad to hear what a lovely weekend you have had with your friends! You’ll love this workout...as you say the time flies by! Enjoy the step ups! Happy Monday! Matthew
I love stepups and can't wait to try this one, thank you Caroline 💖💖
Hi Haasini...if you love step ups you will so much enjoy this workout! I loved it...and if you want more there’s a super intense add on today! Have fun! Matthew
Just finished day 21 and I love this series. I have been consistent with Iron and look forward to working out with Caroline every morning. Love the music and find it resonates through out the day and makes me stay focused with my goals. Thank you Caroline for all you do for us!
If you want a workout that will make you feel powerful and strong- this is the ONE!
I continue to say thank you for all these workouts.
Love this one! Caroline I love your workouts-they’ve been such a great tool for helping me recover postpartum. I had done a few while I was pregnant but I *needed* them after. I’ve come to look forward to them and enjoy the quiet time where I’m just working on me. I still can’t believe these programs are free. I finished End Game and am halfway through Iron. Thank you for the amazing resources!
Absolutely loved this workout. Your skill a choreographing never fails to amaze me. Thank you so so much for all you do x
Hi Suzy...I loved this one too...and your words about Caroline are lovely and so very true! So glad you’ve had a great workout! Matthew
I loved this too!! Some exercises I just love bodyweight! Plus I’m always very cautious of fatigue and stepping down! 😅
Well done Suzy!! And happy Monday!! Smashed it!! 👊🏼🤩
I’m so in love with leg day today 😘 Thank you Caroline for adding the step up. I enjoyed them so much.
Thank you Caroline for doing 30 min workout videos!
First time doing step ups. Loved it! This was so fun. Iron series is going to be my go to I've bumped my weight by 1kg per side since the start of the program and managing to maintain form if going slightly slower. Thanks Caroline you're the best!!
Hitting Legs on a Monday is a great way to start the week, the new variations look great & the preamble to get the most out of it. Have a great workout everyone, Thanks for the upload Caroline & I’m sure I’m going to love this one !!! ☕️ espresso & let’s go! 😁
Have fun Tony...and have a great BH Monday!
@@matthewalmond8274 Thanks Matthew - likewise! I’ve been lucky enough to have dry roads all day so been enjoying London on the bike 😁
With so many step-ups, this is surely going to be a fiery session!! It's since long we have done step-ups!! Looking forward to do this workout today.. Thank you so much Caroline for all these brilliant workouts and all those extremely useful tips you provide with each workout.. You are the best trainer!! Forever grateful to you!! Have a wonderful day Caroline and everyone!!
Fantastic leg workout! I used a chair because I didn't have a box and I really liked those step-ups and going slowly was hard but felt GREAT! Thank you Caroline!!
Ma séance préféré de ce programme thank you
Ohhhh woow my legs on fire!! 🔥 Thanks to you ! I'm glad I found you!!! Greeat trainer 👌!!!
Good morning Caroline, the week starts with this strong leg training. 🤩 Again great explanations from you and great addition with the box.👍🏻 Brings length and increase in movement. I'm looking forward to it in the evening. I wish you a happy and strong new week ...💙
Definitely a bit of leg shaking this morning 😂🦵. But what a fantastic workout! Caroline really makes you think as well as lift. Brilliant. X
Ooh step ups!! Only ever done them a couple of times in my life before and after listening to Caroline's form tips, I've definitely never done them properly before! Felt every muscle from my core down working hard in those, such good value haha. So challenging to me - I was v wobbly - but I loved feeling my muscles work like that 😊
Wow...what an incredible leg day to start this week! I really enjoyed the intensity of this session from the beginning up until the end. Thank you, Caroline! Happy Monday, everyone! Enjoy this amazing workout! :)
Good morning to all and happy Monday. I'm going to have to do yesterday's workout today due to the fact that yesterday I had an open house because our house is for sale and I've been cleaning during the week and pretty much exhausted. A good way to lose weight is to have your house for sale with showings during the week and in the evening and doing touch-ups every single day. I unfortunately lost a few pounds and not felt very strong due to the stress and anxiety I'm running up and down the stairs cleaning vacuuming etc. I will hopefully be able to do today's workout tomorrow. I have truly missed the workouts even though it's been only a couple days that I've missed but my energy level is about zero. Sunday's workout looks amazing and I am looking forward to doing it today
I loved this workout! Really felt the fire on those steps ups. Especially the forward lean ones. Fave! Thank you Caroline!
I absolutely love the step ups❤❤❤. Another amazing workout, challenging, effective and fun. Thank you Caroline 🙏🏾💪🏾💪🏾❤❤❤❤❤
My favorite legs day so far. LOVE the step. 45 min would be awesome. More like these please😁
Wooza, burning baby! Loving it. Thank you Caroline for a great start to the day.
Amazing as usual Caroline!! I just have to tell you I absolutely love your energy :) Always so positive and upbeat... and it's such a small thing, but one of my favorite parts of each workout is when you say farewell!! Such a genuine smile. Thanks for all of your content. Outstanding :)
Looks awesome! I wasn’t able to do upper body from today (Sunday), so I am going to combine them both tomorrow (Monday). So it’ll be full body Friday & Monday. 😅 But I’m really looking forward to doing both workouts, so I’m sure it will fly by! Thank you so much, Caroline. We appreciate you! 🥰
I loved this workout ❤️ And I reaaaaally liked the music - with no talking! Kept me pumped in my own sphere 🏋♀️🏋♀️🏋♀️
I truly enjoyed and appreciate this leg workout it was challenging. Thank you Caroline.
Great workout, thank you CG, camera person, producer. I like the timer and beeps as well.
Omg, I simple love ALL your workouts and I am really enjoying the Iron workouts. Thank you for all these amazing classes. 😘
What a fantastic challenging session! I love step ups it really makes me focus on my whole body. This series has really pushed me to keep good form, increase my weights and really challenge myself. Happy Monday everyone ❤
I use my plyo box everyday, i also regularly do Carolines 20 min lunge and step up work out. For me this was perfect, thank you 🙏 Caroline xx
I’ve done 20 Iron workouts and they’re amazing BUT THIS ONE IS THE BEST SO FAR!!!
I felt the same
I loved this one
Wow....🔥🔥I loved this. Forgot how hard step ups are, particularly when you don't allow the none working leg to step onto the chair (I used my dining chair). Work for me on this gloomy bank holiday Monday. As my add on I did a May 2020 10 minute lower body workout where Caroline in out in her garden and its bright and sunny. Bit of a contrast today but least its not raining. Thank you, loved my little Bank Holiday pre work session ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Morning Nicola...hope your day at work goes well...it’s pretty grey and dull here too! I loved the step ups...weren’t they just so intense! As add on I did the Bulgarian lunges and now my legs are finished off! I love those early videos of Caroline in her garden in the beautiful sunshine! Hope you manage to have a happy day even if you are working! Catch up again soon! Matthew
@@matthewalmond8274 morning Matthew. Yes, that early summer of 2020 was glorious for weeks on end....even here 😂 Only an early today which is 8-4, grateful I'm not doing a long day.
Hello Nicola!! Soooo happy you loved this too! Yes so true about how much for challenging when you focus on just that front leg!
And great you did an extra add on!! 😅 hopefully you have a wonderful more restful rest of day after this!! Way to go Nicole! 👊🏼🤩
This was one of the best workouts I’ve ever made. And I already did a lot of Caroline’s workouts 😅 just perfect, thank you so much!!
Just finished the workout and I have to say that it was F*A*N*T*A*S*T*I*C💖😁 I tried to incorporate Caroline's tip and forget that I have a second leg on the ptep ups and just put my whole effort on one leg with slow pace!!! And OMG, the burn was out of this world😄 Loved it💖 I had also a little sabotage😄 My internet connection just failed during the calf raises...😆 After finishing the 1st set ran to reboot the rooter and straight to the 2nd set...and thank God connection came back by the end of the set😁 I also did the add on... so tough🥵 I hope, I won't paralyze tomorrow!!!😁LOL !!! Have a nice Monday everyone!!!
This workout was Perfect!!!! Thankyou so much Caroline!!! I had to borrow my neighbors bench but I’m so glad I did!!!
I. Love. Step Ups. LOVE! As the stretch is generally the most important part for hypertrophy, I suggest always doing calf work on an elevated surface for full range of motion and doing pulses/holds at the bottom of the range. Hope this helps someone!
This one went to quick😂I loved it. Side step up was awesome! All the step ups were awesome ! Thank you Caroline ❤️
I can't believe that we just have 2 more weeks of this program , hope you all smash and survive this leg workout🙂🙂
Yes isn’t it amazing how quickly the time goes by! Shows just how much we are enjoying ourselves! I’ve finished the workout and I’ve survived...though part way through the add on when we were doing Bulgarian lunge hops then jumps I wasn’t totally sure that my survival was guaranteed! Enjoy the workout and have a lovely day! Matthew
All I can say is Thank you Caroline 💪🤗 inspiring women worldwide ❤
LOVED it Caroline! Excited to see step-ups again.
Merci Caroline pour cette séance innovante d'originalité pour nous faire découvrir toujours plus d'option de travailler chaque groupe musculaire !!! Tu es fantastique !!! MERCI !

Can’t wait to try step ups. I wanted to try before but not without instruction. Thanks Caroline.
17/04/2023 IRON#3 DAY 21 DONE✅✅✅ ! Thank you Caroline for this fabulous program😍😍😍 ! See you soon ! Happy day to you !
Anything that involves elevation on the legs really gets me to work a tad harder and I'm TOTALLY here for it 🤌🏾👌🏾
Wow, loved this workout. Quick and challenging leg day. I missed step ups from my gym days.
Great leg day workout! Thank you Caroline 🙏
Ooohh now this was EVERYTHING. Actually really enjoyed this and I'm not really a person who enjoys leg day!
Used a 20 inch mini stepper and boy was a challenge to stay balanced on that thing! Slow and steady was key. What a fantastic workout! Loved it even though it killed me. Thank you so much Caroline…as always you make me work harder than I ever would!
This was a terrific workout! Absolutely love everything about this program. The step ups today were so amazing!!!
