Your coaching and pace is just right! I like that I don't feel rushed from one exercise to the next...you give me plenty of time to get myself in position. Great job Jules!
Thanks so much for that feedback, Mary. I'm happy to hear that the timing is right for you. It's always tricky for me to judge how much time people might need.
Good morning Jules!! ❤️☕❤️ Oh My Goodness...that was an arm burner of a workout 🔥🔥🔥 Amazing amount of sweat on my end and I still have no idea how your angelic voice going . My brain is so used to doing the planks last and the change of routine was Tough!! Incredible workout!! Have a fantastic day ahead and see you tomorrow 🌈😊🌈
What I really like is you keep telling us to find your own pace and do what is right for your body. I normally tend to compare myself to others and go way over the top and not doing the exercises correctly. But not anymore, thanks to you! I am getting stronger and feeling more and comfortable in my own skin :)
Thanks so much for your feedback. I absolutely want people to go at their own pace and am so glad you are doing that. We are all so different with various abilities and past injuries so every workout is not going to suit all of us. Thank you for listening to your body and for enjoying the workout rather than pushing too hard (and then not enjoying it).
Jules, unlike yesterday (when I struggled a bit) I was able to do all of this one without too much problem. I actually enjoyed working my arms and can feel them getting stronger! Yay! Thank you!
Thanks Theresa. I am definitely trying to keep them short, yet still with as many beneficial exercises that I can fit in. Thanks for letting me know you enjoyed the length and the workout.
Wonderful workout. I got a chance to use my heavier weights and increased my reps by quite a bit on 3 of your exercises. I've been coming away feeling the advances I've made by sticking to your routines--both cardio and strength--and have enjoyed an increase in attitude: I am doing my very best, and then some, and I feel good about myself--and stronger. More thanks...Anastasia
It really does make a massive difference when we're consistent with our workouts...especially strength training. I'm so glad you're recognizing the benefits of doing it regularly.
Day 18 challenged myself so full push-up for 10 then knees and 10,8&5 lb weights! Yeah 👍🏽 happy I tried ! Thank you for your encouragement to try! Blessings to all 🙏🙏🙏
Another good workout. Looking forward to trying it with my heavier weights when I get home. The weights I have with me are too light. Not sure I will get tomorrow’s work out done as we are driving home and its a 7 hour drive! Will catch up over friday and saturday. Thanks jules
7 hours! That's a long drive for the UK! I remember friends and family throughout Europe usually find an hour to be extremely long. Anyway, I wish you a safe drive back home:) And yes, using the heavier weights will feel great!
Thanks Jules for fabulous day 18. All the exercises including the plank were fantastic. My arms can feel it. Oh yes, I was thrilled to do the plank first. Was able to hold it for 50 seconds today. Not bad for somebody going to be 71 in a few months😄 Thanks again for keeping me motivated everyday. Stay blessed❤
Oh you got a big smile from me again today. I love that at 71 you are holding the plank for 50 seconds. I hope I can say the same when I am 71. Congrats for being here every day to get stronger, Bhupinderjit!
@@ImprovedHealth All the credit goes to you Jules. I am hundred percent sure at my age you will be holding the plank for a way more time than me. Thanks again.
Welcome to my channel, Pamela! As you get through some of the workouts, feel free to message me if you have any questions. I hope your leg continues to heal well for you.
Really like doing the floor first! I can do the push ups but still cave to half down half up for plank. One day I will do it the full time down on my arms!❤️
Mindreader!!! You: having us start on the floor. You have mentioned that some days we will feel stronger. Not sure if it was one of those days, or starting with push-ups and planks, but felt less fatigued from the get go. Thanks for another "uplifting" session.
A lot of others agree with you in regards to feeling stronger when starting with the push-ups and planks. I'll keep changing it up to keep the workouts interesting (and also to make you realize just how strong you are becoming).😉
Hi Jules, I really like that you started with the push-ups and plank today. I was able to do 5 full push-up before getting on my knees. That's not a lot but still an improvement for me! I continue to love that there is a little more challenge each day!
5 is not a lot? That's AMAZING!!! Absolutely amazing, Valerie with just starting on this strength series. I think you should get on the floor and show your family before your Thanksgiving dinner.😉
Has anyone seen a pair arms lying about.... Mine fell off lol this was great. I love going to these ones again. You put more into them now I know what I'm doing with weights lol so I tell myself haaa. I'm now off to do the "stacker" that's after this on schedule. Thank u ❤
Hullo Jules...thank you for this amazing workout...triceps throbbing, do you think I'll say bye bye batwings in a while if I keep up? Hope so😄 Push-ups are still not great at all, but I shall persevere! It was good to go on the floor at the beginning itself..❤
Thanks so much for your feedback. We are all built so different genetically but with consistent tricep workouts, your triceps will definitely get stronger and more lean. I'm not going to tell my viewers that you'll get rid of bat wings in 7 days like a lot of YT fitness folks do. That's not realistic and it drives me crazy when I read fitness people saying that. It's impossible and they are only saying it to get views. Over time, these exercises will absolutely help to firm up the arms. Push-ups will also give more strength and definition to the chest and arms. Congrats on completing another workout! You will definitely start seeing changes in your muscle definition over time...just be patient:)
@@ImprovedHealth Thanks so much, Jules... I was just kidding about the batwings...i completely understand your angst against tall claims...on YT and otherwise.... it's taken me 3 odd months to learn to plank properly..idk how many more to do push ups, I'm just happy to keep trying....And yes, i am fond of my carbs, can't cut them out altogether...so....
@@anuradhab4481 No need to cut carbs out altogether anyway...just limit the amount, that's all. If you do cardio and strength training, and eat healthy overall then your body (and mind) will be happy:)
@@ImprovedHealth Thank you ever so much for that piece of advice, Jules....with various parameters going awry, my docs are giving me strict instructions....i think I'll follow yours...i believe, being happy and content without going overboard should do the trick...your workouts keep me happy and positive, so❤️🤗
@@anuradhab4481 If the doctors are watching for specific things for you (example diabetes), they are the experts, though. I'm just referring to the average person without special needs for certain diets. 😉
Hi Jules, I didn't do the 5 full pushups as I did 2 months ago but I did use my heavier weights for most of the workout! I still like having the plank and pushups
Oh wowsers! That's a lot! If you're sore tomorrow, take a day off from strength training and complete the last two on the weekend. You can always do cardio tomorrow instead.
Good for you for allowing yourself to try the heavier weight. A tiny bit of soreness is a good thing. Over time you'll get to know what weight will be beneficial, yet not too much where your muscles scream back at you (that's not fun!).
It's strange how sone days seem tougher and other days even though you may be doing simillar moves dont seem as tough,but anyway I Really enjoy the challenge,I did manage to do a few full pushups,thanks once again
I think that's very normal. I feel the same way. One thing that really helps me is music. I find if I have motivating music on, I totally get into my workout. Without it, I feel blah and don't have that same drive. Maybe try muting me and putting on music that you love to work out to. Or, just have both my instructions and your music on. The music I have is fairly quiet so your music will be heard over mine.
Thanks Jules. At this point I can do the 40 seconds plank but I haven’t being able to the pushups. Would you please tell me where I can see how to them correctly.
Hi Claudia, the main rule with the push-ups is to try to have your body in a straight line (no bum in the air). If you were to put a broom stick on your back, it should be able to sit along your back down to your toes. If you have a full length mirror, you could put it against the wall so you can see your form. Also, definitely start the push-ups off the wall. When that's too easy, you can do the push-ups from a kitchen counter (feet back and push up from the counter). Third, you can be on the floor but have your knees on the floor since doing full push-ups are very difficult. Lots of ways to progress.
My difficult road leads to a skying destination somewhere in Austria. Thank you for these exercises and a big hug from here, dear Jules.
Thanks Helga.😊🫂
I appreciate having the plank and push ups done first, much easier for me to do in the beginning, thanks....
Thanks for your feedback:)

@@ImprovedHealth absolutely!! Love the cardio/weight training sessions ❤️
You were right about only doing the five minute warm up, I was able to do really well today. Thanks!
Oh yay! I'm so glad that helped!
Day 18✅ really felt the burn with 3kg for the 7s🔥🔥💪🏻 Have a wonderful weekend Jules...
Thanks Helen! You too.

50 sec plank. I got 3 days behind so I’m doing 3 classes today.

Excellent workout..I had drop a weight size towards the end, which is good coz I can challenge myself now. Xx
It is great that you understand when to change the weights. Perfect.
When doing the plank, I didn't think that I could get past 10 seconds tonight 😅 AND then I thought, yes I can!! I did it 🎉🎉🎉
Woo hoo! I love the positive thinking!
day 18, thx
