I’m seventy-two years old and have been doing this routine 6 times a week for the past 5 weeks to offset the loss of muscle mass due to hormone therapy for prostate cancer. Started barely able to plank for 30 seconds and now more or less breeze through the 2 minutes. Started with 14.4 pound dumbbells, moved up to 16.5, and today did the routine with 19 pound dumbbells. THANKS, CAROLINE! Update, 07/29/2024: Still following Caroline’s routine with 19 pound dumbbells. Just finished 28 sessions of radiation, which was a bear, but I’m still standing. Hoping to add a little more weight to the dumbbells soon and settle into a 4 times a week routine! Update, 10/30/2024: Still following Caroline’s routine... now using 24 pound dumbbells 3 or 4 times a week! Just had my blood test and PSA registered at zero, which means at least for now, the prostate cancer is asleep and/or dying, with the help of hormone therapy. Wish me luck!

I’m neurodivergent and want to thank you for making these so calm, clear, simple, and quiet. The picture-in-picture where you show the upcoming set, and the way you silently demo the form from clear angles that are easy to mirror…that makes such a huge difference for me! I love that these videos don’t have intense music, and that you’re not coaching us to power through. That actually takes me out of the workout and demotivates me because I’m trying to kind of go to this mental place where my exertion feels like meditation. If someone is reminding me that it’s hard labor and there’s x amount of reps left, I can’t do that. Your physical set up is very well lit, it feels serene, and even though you’re in peak condition I was actually more struck by the relatable adjustments and facial expressions you made. It made me feel like we were on the same human team instead of me feeling like an old blob who just will never be a natural jock. Your small intro at the beginning where you said we could make the workout our own also takes the anxiety and pressure off, I didn’t feel like there was potential for failure, just an opportunity to grow and maybe learn what works for me. I made it all the way through, with a long intermission after all the lunges just to cool down and center myself. My legs were quaking and felt like jello, but I’m proud I could do it! I did have a few less reps on the lunges because I was approaching collapse which is what’s important anyway. I love upper body and am upgrading to heavier weights next time for that.

She does everything right- no yelling, audible and visual countdown cues so you can focus on the exercise and not the tv/computer every second. Gorgeous graphics. And her fitness is inspiring!

3 days in a row of Ms Caroline for my wife and I. We’ve been doing lots of Beach Body and we just found Caroline. Folks...this is better. Nobody yelling at you. Nobody trying to tell you to give it more effort. Nobody making the fat girl in the corner do the dumb-down version. No breaks that are too short. No hyperactive moves. We just did this full body and guess what? I have a full body burn. Yes - the body needs change doesn’t it. Sometimes the mind does too. Right now this is good on many levels. Caroline gives this away. She’s like AthleanX Jeff Cavalier - they just care about you and want you to get a good workout with them. Thanks again Ms Caroline. You are very helpful!

[@Radtrad1221]

You can do this girls. I just lost 30lbs. I have 20 more lbs to go. This is what I did. I started at 182lbs just had my 5th baby. I've lost this amount of weight before with my 3rd baby. Anyway, I did keto inaddition to eating LESS CALORIES. Just because you do keto doesn't mean you lose weight. Eating less and the diet go hand and hand. I did no workout at all for the first 30lbs of weight loss. Just pure discipline. I'm at that stage now (I'm 155 now) I need to work out and eat healthy to lose weight. If I kept up just eating less and not working out, I would have to eat 900 calories a day and that's NOT HEALTHY. I've done it before and I never want to do it again. It doesn't work. At some point you have to move and actively burn calories. Restriction only goes so far. Lastly, you have to have purpose of WHY you are doing it. Looking good is not enough (it helps though. Lol) but you have to tell yourself it's for your health. AND pray. You can't do this without Jesus. You really can't. I pray and ask for the grace of temperance and moderation because it was lack of temperance and immoderation that got me to the weight gain in th 1sr place! Lol last last, I like to turn my dieting into a prayer. I meditate and reflect on those who literally don't have enough food to eat and I think about them and almost don't eat out of solidarity with them, in addition to praying for them (I do want them to eat!) But in my catholic faith I look at fasting as a prayer and a form of penance. It really helps me during the times when I want to eat junk food or just eat more. It keeps me motivated, espeially since we are in the season of lent. Anyway. God is the real reason I'm able to do this. Good luck girls. Hope this helps!!

First day of doing this workout. I’m a 14 year old and I love working out. I usually don’t follow a routine when I exercise, I just do stuff I know for a hour. And I wanted to break the habit by following a video. I love how this workout is REALLY full body. Works my arms, shoulders, legs and glutes! I wish there was more of a focus to core besides that. But this is one of the best exercises that I’ve done because I love that there is equal amount of working out and breaks. Also I ADORE that Caroline explains her method before getting into the video for beginners or to people who are new. Unlike people that talk about it throughout the video. And the plank challenge at the end is genius because users can track how long they can hold a plank for and see how they progressively get better at it. I will be giving updates about my progress for the next few weeks while doing this video everyday! :)

[@carlquarknase4921]

wow, i really noticed an improvement with the plank in the end! i remember when i used to struggle so much and was shaking insanely after the first thirty seconds, but this time it felt even kinda easy. i just found my love for working out during the last year. i didn't lose any weight, i actually gained some (which was very much needed, coming from a disordered eating background) but i also gained so much more. strength. and life. sometimes i think i haven't improved at all, but this workout showed me i really did! so remember that the changes on your inside and your mind are so much more important than any appearance based stuff!

[@Anuradha_Joshi]

101% positive feedback ! I was a gym person until lockdown happened last year. Since then Gyms are on and off as the number oscillates. Fitness is perishable and I lost all my stamina within few weeks. I decided to do something at home bought some dumbbells. From last 2 month I have following this video thrice a week and on first attempt I wasn't able to complete the sets. After a month ( 12 sessions) I upgraded from 2.5KG dumbbell to 5 kg dumbbell. Now after2 month I am able to complete the sets in 40-45 minutes. My target is to reach 30 minutes first and then I'll upgrade dumbbell to 7.5 KG. This is amazing change and I feel like I am very fast approaching my fitness peak. The 30 seconds rest really helps and this becomes a weight training class where you have toned trainer to teach. She sets the tone in initial few minutes and then you are 100% focused only on training. the times, the music, and off course the trainer is simply awesome. Caroline you are changing lives !

Im 14, but im trying to gain some more muscle so I can get better at club volleyball, and this has honestly helped so much ! Its not too hard but not too easy ! surprised I lasted the full 2 minutes on the plank. Looking forward to getting better with you !

Heyy I'm 15 I really wanna gain more muscle too and get strong but idk many workouts can you suggest me any for muscle gain?

I’m in a similar position to you! I’m 12 and play netball, I want to improve my muscle mass and be more consistent and this helps heaps, I feel so proud once I finish the whole thing

Today is my Dad's first day of chemotherapy, I really wanted to distract and channel my energy this morning, and I feel ten times better. Thank you for all of your kick @$$ workouts!!

[@k.f.4909]

Alright, so I haven’t been doing this workout consistently. But for the last 2 months I did this work out either once, twice of 3 times a week. Mainly once or twice. Combined with a diet and hella protein I noticed a big difference in my body. I look more toned, and developed a little muscle so far. :) Edit: HAPPY 2024!! I’m starting this workout up again Every Monday, Wednesday and Friday. The other days are running or walking or ab workouts I guess

[@HeyNattyGreen]

Omggg!!! I workout every Monday, Wednesday, and Friday too! I am about to get an indoor treadmill and do 30 minutes of cardio everyday with some dumbbells. The minimum times a person should strength train in a week is 3 times, so with added cardio and a good diet of course I should be fine.

[@TheYupii94]

I discovered you when I decided to start working out at home. In many videos, I couldn't figure out how to position my posture correctly. Trying to focus on the person in the video and imitate them made it hard for me to pay attention to my own movements. This constantly forced me to pause the video, which honestly made the workout feel frustrating. The way you do every single move with us throughout your videos and warn us in advance about possible mistakes is absolutely amazing! I feel so lucky to have found you!❤

[@dominiquelytle7262]

I love the simplicity of her workouts and the effectiveness is amazing. I appreciate her method of instruction. She has taught me perseverance!! Thank you Caroline.....you're a life saver!!

[@kellyj9573]

I just wanted to say thank you for creating this. I am massively overweight and have started to exercise again and I actually feel great after completing this workout; it is nice to do a shorter workout that is achievable and makes me feel invigorated about what I can do after a workout rather than feeling sad about what I can’t do. I will continue on with this and the other shorter videos in the series and work up to the longer harder workouts, I have really enjoyed this and can’t thank you enough for creating something that is achievable!

[@meberg650]

I LOVE that you don't talk! I LOVE the beeping, easy to hear and see timer! I LOVE the little video that shows the next movement during rest! I LOVE how you just point to what is important and how you just hold up fingers as a reminder what set we're on! I LOVE your simple, straight forward, no BS approach plus your music doesn't suck and you are nice to look at. I'm sure the guys (gals?) Swoon at your accent. Well done! Thank you very much. Theses are by far my favorite excersize videos. LOVE!

[@yingchesshuang8057]

Thank you dear, for always sharing the videos selflessly. Each one of them has taught me a lot. It has become a habit to train with Caroline's videos every day, and give back as much as you give back. I am very happy to have you and we will stick to it 💪 💪

[@franciscareyes585]

I love the fact that you give a heads up of what is coming. I also like the music you choose on the background but most of all I can see the impact and the change in my body. I had been looking for exercise to do at home for a long time until I found you. I am recommending you to family and friends.
