45 Minute Legs & Glutes Builder Workout | ARISE - Day 3

[@sydneycummingshoudyshell]

Thank you all for being so supportive in my comeback series from maternity leave! It’s humbling and new but navigating this comeback to strength has been one of the best ways to show my body the appreciation I have for allowing me the honor of giving birth to my biggest blessing, my son! I’m so excited to get stronger and feel like I’m getting to know my body in this way again. I’ve got a long way to go and I’ve got some big goals for myself but I hope my journey inspires someone out there to love their body for what it’s done for them while working towards their goals! 💙

Hi, I’m coming back to fitness nearly 12 months postpartum. I’ve been dabbling back into fitness since 10 months but with challenges with my bubs sleep it hasn’t been easy. Ready now to crush it with you Sydney. 👊It’s inspiring getting to come back alongside you. All the best ❤️ xxx

[@sharmilashankar6802]

Sydney lots of love and blessing s to you , Dustin and Aria. You have been such a great role model us and you proved to us even through your pregnancy, nothing can stop us from being healthy and fit. 💕

[@McSwordio]

As always, I'm so grateful for these workouts. They're so accessible, consistent, well-programmed, and challenging. I'm 40+ weeks pregnant and waiting on my stubborn baby to make her grand appearance. Glad to see you back from maternity leave. :-)

[@leaway1389]

I am so grateful for you and Dustin and Ari. You are amazing trainer to all of us. Welcome back. this was an amazing week Monday Tuesday and Wednesday. Thank you again

[@charnelleharrison]

It just makes you that much more relatable and encouraging to the rest of us who are struggling along on our journeys! I was happy to see the way you designed this program and am looking forward to the rest of this month. Welcome back :)

[@julianadolski1742]

Sydney’s comeback is no joke 🥵🔥! The legs were already burning halfway through the first exercise. Thank you to our beautiful trainer for being such an inspiring example of strength ❤️!

[@jern-]

Seriously! The banded squat walks/tap outs wrecked me! So much shaking 😬

[@julianadolski1742]

@@jern- I could hardly move my legs during those taps out at one point 🥵 the burn was real!

[@tanlady4135]

Seriously!! So glad it wasn’t just me!

[@JessicaMartinez-zc3gd]

Seriously!!! I was 15 min in and I was shaking

[@lenacochrane4892]

My legs were sore in the warmup! But I finished the routine.

[@JustMe-wc5zn]

The workouts are a struggle for real, but eating is my biggest downfall. Learning to EAT more is my biggest struggle! TY for being that role model for us and teaching us🌻🌻

[@francesroth9729]

Great Workout! Crushed It!

[@TheBeaver06]

Dear me I only thought I was working out, until I did this Welcome back Sydney my body has missed this xxb🇬🇧

[@emb6566]

“Stop and breathe don’t stop and leave” I needed that at that moment! I didn’t leave ☺️💪🏼

[@TheBeaver06]

I think it’s my new Mantra now !

[@ejbooks]

What a great comprehensive leg/bootie workout! Watched the entire video while drinking my morning cup of coffee, so I know what to expect! Going for my morning run, shower, then this workout! Can’ t wait. I know many of your viewers don’t have as much time to devote to exercising, but since I am retired now I have this luxury to spend time on me. The one thing I have in life to get me through my days… Thank you for your excitement and dedication to keeping us on our toes!! Have a great day and enjoy every minute with your baby… time flies by…💕💕💕

Sydney's Daily Wisdom (28:19): "This is about one rep at a time. We get stronger, we see results one rep, one day at a time. Don't rush the process. Be in it." I have to remind myself to focus on each rep, because if I can do one rep a a time with good form, I will get stronger.

[@suzannesb1691]

Great to see a Simple by Emmy recap! Love them Have missed them

[@mrssnooch06]

Same! I was struggling and then I heard that and took a deep breath and slowed down

[@iamlaetitias3311]

I think this was one of my fav so far !! Thanks so much Sydney

[@BlackPanther.00]

Im doing your workouts since one year but I’ve never done a program completely until this one. This is my birthday month and i decided to make me a special present with the arise program🤩

[@75JayLady]

I am the best version of myself from 5 years of training with you!

[@lindaharrison3327]

Amazing leg workout Sydney. Missed ya!❤💪

[@danielegreiner]

Girrrrrrrl! That was straight FIRE! Loved it! Proud of us!

[@joyroa7913]

Omggggg. So glad to see post-workout dance parties are backkk 🎉 Great workout as always!

[@joybecker2335]

Great workout. Liked the walking lunges circuit. It is so good to see you back! I am over 70 and still holding strong!

[@klarmar5751]

Thank you Sydney for another amazing workout! Have a good weekend ♥️

[@toebelinatulip2758]

I missed you Sydney! great to have you back 😀 loved this workout 💪

[@amberd2976]

LOVE the new formats and the mix up of times and intervals. Keeps it fun and engaging. More of this plz.

[@krisredmond7050]

Thanks, I need this motivation right now!

[@DoeRaeMe]

First time I quit one of Sydney's workout out early. I pushed my legs to failure! By time I got to step ups, I could not do one more rep! I also never came as close to puking during a workout! So, yup guys Sydney ain't playing come back from her mat. leave! I feel like she's stronger then ever before and pushing harder(postpartum recovery)

[@fatimasantos4116]

Sydney came back on fire!! I can't say how much I miss these workouts! 😃

[@natashachristen6688]

You truly are the epitome of inspiration! Your dedication to working with your body instead of coming back and hitting your previous weights to prove you can are important reminders for all. All to often we are discouraged from taking breaks in whatever domain of life out of fear of failure or judgement. ARiSE should be seen by everyone!

[@jessicadack581]

Completed this workout the first time when Sydney was in her postpatum journey and again in mine!

[@doriscistrelli9560]

You Rock Sydney! So glad your back. Whew feeling that glute work

[@yessenialuevano7816]

Wow! Missed leg day with you! Loved loved that workout!

[@georgiastephanou3988]

You are smashing it! I'm quad centric but my glutes and leg muscles I never felt are aching. You ROCK. Keep smashing it x

[@angelalourenco6487]

So glad you’re back!! Killing it!,,🔥🔥🔥🔥❤️

[@brittanygeissinger7304]

So proud of you Sydney for taking care of your body! You are being a great representative to mom’s who want to take care of their bodies but also want to get back in shape after giving birth!

[@ktm4042]

Ive been doing various workouts of Sydney's for a few months, but decided to start ARISE. Today was my day 3. After years of MMA conditioning workouts which I loved, I then went to crossfit. It was not for me, it beat up my body pretty badly. And I had an excellent trainer it just isn't for my body. These ARISE workouts are EXCELLENT! Great pace, very targeted to specific muscle groups, and a world class trainer giving excellent instruction. Like Sydney says, your experience level doesnt matter- JUST SHOW UP! You just dont quit and she will guide you through the rest. You can do this for yourself!!

[@brittanylbergman]

It's such a gift to me and so many other women, moms and not, to participate with you in your recovery and rebuilding of strength. (Though I would say it's not even a rebuilding -- our strength changes after babies, and maybe we have to decrease weight in exercise for a while, but holy moly, we have spent 9 months + the postpartum phase building a whole new kind of strength!) I'm done having babies now, and I'm making slow but steady progress reclaiming and shaping my body and mind for this next phase of life. What I love most about your workouts is that I can do them with my kids in the room and I feel totally comfortable and HAPPY to have them hear everything you're saying. You're not yelling at us to burn more calories or trim our tummy fat or lose as many pounds as possible or any other toxic stuff I try to protect them from. You're encouraging us to do what we can, where we are, and to keep progressing in every way -- body, mind, and soul. I love when my kids want to join in with Coach Sydney and me! Thank you for all you do!

[@brigety83]

This was a burner!!!!

[@seahaze77]

I crushed it!!! Great workout today Sydney. It is so great to have you back on live. Keep up the great work mama.

[@ellefirebrand]

That was an incredible workout! Wowwwwweee my butt was screaming during the glute bridges. Can't wait to work with you this month and beyond to live happy, healthy and strong!

[@janci598]

I'm coming back from a knee injury and I didn't use any dumbbells today, but I'm still so proud of myself for getting back into the swing of things! Thank you, Sydney! You inspire me, and so, so, so many others to be the best version of themselves from wherever they are.

[@sarakmather]

Love learning this new mom body and building back stronger with you!! 💙💙

[@rainejumaquio-liwanag6031]

I crushed it! It feels great working out with you, Sydney 😊

Congratulations on your weight loss thats awesome. Have you also gained muscle?

[@jennifermoreno4834]

SYDNEY IS BACK WITH A VENGENCE!!! No joke, that was one of the most challenging leg programs I've ever done. Your layout was amazing and had me talking myself through it, out loud, the whole time. Feels so good to have finished it. Thank you!

[@joseliebegin]

Awesome workout!!! I feel the burn! And your words always talk to me! Thank you!!!!

[@stephaniephan1169]

Listen to your body and be smart to reduce injury. Health is key to everything. Thank you for setting a realistic example and walking your talk, Sydney. It is refreshing and you definitely lead by speaking and living your truth. This was a great legs workout!

[@christinastotts5915]

Today’s post workout speech was a reminder of what I’ve been doing for my recovery journey. I’m getting stronger one day at time with our workouts and stretching. I have a long way to go and I have goals that I want to achieve in my journey. I’m humbled that 7 months later I’m alive and healing after a head on collision.

[@leticiaschneider9390]

Great workout! ❤️ day 3 in the books! Now onto building stronger bodies with nutrition and water!!

[@nikkij_2383]

Crushed it! I myself is actually getting back in the swing of things and boy does my body feel it! It is definitely a lifestyle once you fall off it's like starting over! The key is not to quit and completely stop! I will NEVER completely give up! I'm right here with you and everyone else Sydney!! Let's do this!!🔥🔥👊🏾🏋🏾‍♀💪🏾

[@shivid7680]

Oh yes legs & glutes are on 🔥. Thanks Sydney for a good burner, crushed it hard😊💪💪💪💪💪

I'm 8 weeks postpartum and this was great! I had to do the step ups (carefully) carrying baby to get through it! You get creative sometimes. Thanks Sydney!

[@chelseapaulson4038]

First of all I'm loving the new intro. Second, the wallpaper analogy made me laugh out loud and third i really appreciate Sydney's humility and willingness to set a positive example of working with the body to get stronger in a healthy way. I tend to go too hard so this is a great example for me. Thank you to the royal change family! 💛

[@r.a.r.1981]

Wow. I've been doing your workouts for the past three months, and this is the first program I have been following in real time. I can definitely feel my body getting stronger, and it is an amazing feeling. I wasn't able to do glute staggers at the start of the summer, but now I can (that might be an easy thing for other people to do, but it was one of those moves that was just harder for me). I'm excited to keep with it and see what else I can make myself do that I never thought I could. Thanks, Sydney!

[@ceebee7192]

Sydney, welcome to motherhood- you've gained a new superpower!

[@melissahaslett]

I really respect how Sydney is taking it slow three work outs is sensible

[@beckyzygmunt3782]

OMG Great to have you back. These last three days were tough. It was fun to go back and pick some workouts from 3 years ago, still very challenging. Loved the 15 min jumprope for an add on. Hope the balance of motherhood and running a business will not be too challenging.

[@kerriecook8987]

OH MY LEGS! I am sore from Day 1 but getting stronger! Super excited to be three days in on getting back after it! Thanks Sydney!

Thank you Sydney! I love how you are doing all of this and uploading the extra videos .I missed you and just ❤ You so much !!🙏
