[@angelicareyes9596]

hearing you say how its a privilege to move our bodies has changed my mindset on going to the gym. its no longer a chore for me - so thank you, you and your app evolve you are the reason ive stayed so consistent in my training. much love ❤️

[@MsGwwen]

Exactly! :) I have a chronic disease that puts many people who have it in a wheelchair. So far I'm still relatively healthy and I should use this time to strengthen my body instead of trying to come up with excuses why not to got to the gym. :)

[@KrissyCelaa]

So happy to help as always! Proud of you my girl 💙💙

Can we talk about the fact that this woman is not only giving us Workouts for free on KZbin but she also gives us a whole workout routine on evolve you, cute gym clothes and nutrition (that brownie protein 🔥). Love her 💕

LOVE LOVE LOVE how you educate us in so much depth. It not only helps us learn different workouts but also teaches us what muscle the workout is targeting and how to do it safely.

@@KrissyCelaa You've become one of my favorites fitness KZbinr ever truely the way you explain every detail is just amazing with a pinch of advices to be confident ✨ can you please make a video for each part like shoulders the three muscles which exercise for each and same for chest and others in an individual video please ✨

[@matthewschenker3170]

Krissy, I recently became certified as a personal trainer. When I work with female clients, I always emphasize that they can do the same exercises and work the same muscle groups as men. It's interesting how many women assume they can't or shouldn't do this! Your videos are excellent inspiration for me as a trainer, and for women. Thank you!

[@genowefapigwa6007]

Hi Matthew, good luck as a trainer! I train with a trainer and this brings so much addend value! And that's correct: my fekalne friends are also afraid of working out upper body or weight lifting generally. And it won't help hen i am explaining that i do boty and am not looking masculine at all :)

[@KrissyCelaa]

This is why I title my KZbin videos what I do as I want women to click on the video then I show them exercises EVERYBODY / GENDER can/ should do x

[@ThaoLeSmileyEyes]

P lol

[@GeeClef64]

Looking back, I can't believe that I used to be stuck in that mindset of only wanting to focus on my lower body. I'm so glad I've grown out of that, and it's all thanks to Krissy! Such a huge inspiration. Looking forward to incorporating those shoulder presses into my workout tomorrow, because I've definitely been neglecting them!!

[@KrissyCelaa]

I think we all did it was part of the fitness community and it was so so so obsessive by ALL of us including me! But I’m happy more people are starting to move their body in a way they look and makes them feel good rather than just how it looks 💙

[@anilaturina]

What you said about it being a privilege to be able to move really hit home for me - two years ago i had a very bad sliped disc, it took me half a year just to be able to walk normally again. I wasn't particularly sporty back then and never did any strength training because i thought 'what's the point, looking muscular as a woman is stupid anyway', but after going through that experience of being completely helpless in my own body my mindset completely changed. Being healthy and especially being able to controll my body and move it in the way i want has become such an important thing in my Life - it truly is a privilege! Thank you

[@linkamoreno9959]

Min 9:40 is sooooo true. That's actually how I became more strict with myself about working out, by thinking that way. And every time I see someone in a wheelchair I think to myself "maybe they wanna be doing leg day, but they can't ☹️" we are blessed to have the capability to exercise

[@w0033944]

As someone in that position, thanks for appreciating it. I'm better-off from the POV than plenty of other wheelchair users.

Krissy I can't even put into words how grateful I am to have found your content 6 months ago. You are a women of integrity and so much love and grace it's truly amazing. You truly are a gift to this world!

[@tanyasisodia2492]

Love that you are comfortable talking about the things that you are not able to do as much as the things that you are able to do. It helps let go of unrealistic standards. Also, it’s less intimidating to begin knowing that there will be exercises you will struggle at even at different levels of expertise. Thank you for being authentic. Completed Day 1, learning from you. ♥️

[@tayuibea7144]

I look forward to all your videos You are my trainer I've been on a weight gain program I started at 47kg im at 54kg now My target is 60kg I knoe you don't know me but you've literally been with me through my entire weight gain and I can't thank you enough My confidence level is also skyrocketing these days Going to the gym really feels good

[@judymyers1934]

I wish I could do all these exercises, but I am still really fat and weak. Have been trying so hard recently though. Going to gym every day, and I got great meal plan from Next Level Diet. I hope I will slim down fast so I can start with these workouts. I believe in myself, that's the most important thing IMO.

[@despina250]

I wish you the best, good luck with your journey ❣️ Never give up🥰

[@lovingcollege1]

Hi! You may not be able to lift heavy, but lift what you can even if it's 5lbs or body weight exercise. Best of luck and don't give up!

[@shelbycaldwell1265]

You've probably heard about the Evolve You app, right? There is a 2 week free trial and you should totally check out Krissy's intro level strong program. I had wet spaghetti noodle arms before starting, you can set it to just a few workouts a week, and take the weight as slow as you want. What I love about the beginner level is you learn how to use things like barbells but you start with no weights on them and it helps you get a feel for form before you add weights. :) I hope it can help you like it did me!

[@prettyzen2]

hey, don't turn it into a chore. It's a lifestyle of healthy eating ( not diets) and consistent exercise that's not damaging and suitable. Regular, consistent baby steps and most of all love yourself for showing up each day whether its meal prep or a walk.

[@marysalmon2367]

you're right, it is a privilege to move. sometimes i dedicate my workouts to friends who have passed on. I do it because they can't . And someday I won't be able to. Treasure your ability to walk, run, lift. Never take it for granted.

[@jessicazaffino8762]

I’m one of those lower body girls who neglects upper body and this is such an awesome workout… I did it this morning and my word those hollow holds are evil! Krissy, would love a top 5 body weight exercise video if you can… I’m traveling soon (🥳) and would love a simple routine I can take with me x Also, I love how you explain each exercise. So simple and easy to follow.

[@RitaKaminski]

man i'm absoluely gobsmacked and flabbergasted. i only now found your channel and i've never seen someone explain training so clearly, i've learned so much by watching only a only handful of your videos, and i've been training for seven years. what a talented person.

[@avs172]

Started to go to the gym recently because I want to be and feel healthier, your videos help me a lot. Thank you so much, Krissy!

[@triciaseddon4301]

Hearing what you said about being able to move our body is a privilege is so true, being 52 year old woman and new to resistance training after losing 3 stone in weight it rings true to me,I can move my body so much better now. I always say "that growing old is a privilege, not everyone get to do it!" Keep up the good work, new subscriber here👍💪

[@jesusiskingofmyheart]

Omg I’m the same way when it comes to pull ups 😭💀 I’m strong but I struggle so much with doing a single pull up! I’ll definitely give those Aussie pull-ups a try, thank you Krissy 🥹❤️🙌🏼

[@arianeparadis6439]

I used to be unable to do any pull ups and after doing inverted rows, band assisted pull ups and negative pull ups I was able to do 4 so trust me it's possible. You go girl!

[@charnjitryatt2960]

I love how my upper body looks now. (Female with previously poor upper body strenght)..I use ur videos they're excellent. Thank u

[@elelonger4409]

The comment about health is so true. I have a chronic illness now and I used to run all the time but now I cant. Luckily my medicine has made it possible to start lifting and your channel has been amazing !.

[@batoolyazdani]

I started the strong program this week and i was so confused about aussie pullups. Thank God for this and I’m obsessed with your videos and program 🥹

[@vanessagutierrez8596]

I was too! I did them as best I could yesterday, but her demonstration in the video has helped so much! I'm excited to try them again next week :]

Just saw this video. You’re such a great INSTRUCTOR!😭😘 Thank you for being here because I’ve learned so much from you! Sweet Buttons was probably being very protective of you since you had a couple of health scars in 2022. She probably even sensed what was wrong before you heard it from the doctors. Dogs are so special 🥰🥰🥰🥰

[@shelbycaldwell1265]

KRISSY! I'm OBSESSED with Evolve You lol I have finished the beginner strong program and am on week 5 of the intermediate and when I tell you I feel muscles I didn't know I had and I have gained 4% muscle mass I am not kidding (also been pole dancing)! Thank you so much I love your channel and your spirit :) I feel more capable than ever.

[@snigdhashrivastava3969]

love these videos its been a few months since I started focusing on my upper body and I love what its doing for my lower body. there's no definition of what's feminie and what isn't . honestly its all about overcoming this mindset.

[@medline5140]

The row position in a plank position is one of the moves that hurt my wrist. I opt out of that position and do a standard row using a bench which is still effective. Love these videos!

[@xlady0]

Love all of these. Using my knees to kick up the dumbbell will help do much. Thanks!

Krissy :). Can you please write an e-book, something printable, or pocket like book, with your exact meal plan when you're on a rest day, on a gym day, when you're gaining, & cutting. w/a chart & breakdown of macros/micros. You've taught me so much already, I think nutrition can be the hardest part bc of the misinformation out there, American lifestyle, etc etc. I need a guide on how to come up with my own meals.. I'm getting it slowly, but not quite there. Please, just think about it! (ps, this isn't my account, I am a female). Love ya

Krissy I absolutely love your channel and how you break all of these work outs down. Recently Ive been trying to get back into going to the gym and making it more of a habit now. I really have been liking going to my yoga classes first and then having a upper body workout right after. I will most definitely be incorporating these 5 into my work out now. Thanks girl 💕!

[@anjalivartak4797]

Hey Krissy, I've only recently stumbled onto your channel, but have to say I find your videos truly inspiring! I used to train at the gym a while ago, then left it for the longest time. Now past the "Big 50", and have gotten back to hitting the gym. In addition I did walk a fair bit as well. But I can say this much, I find it that much harder to shed the weight off, as compared to earlier. I'm also a believer in slow & steady winning the race. Just being consistent/regular & pushing thru each day. Thanks for all the wonderful tips that you incorporate in your videos. Definitely very helpful!! Keep on inspiring people like us!! ❤

[@magdalenam07]

i can't stress enough how much i learned from you Krissy! honestly I feel confident at the gym and 80% of what i know is from your free content

Thank you for the moment about pull ups. I can do 3x5 quite competently... but I hate them. Rows feel much more engaging. Plus, as a pre-HRT trans gal, I want good pull chain health but without the width pull ups really facilitate.

[@alphaunit1993]

Thank you finally you said it all girls I see in the gym just do lower body and it’s boring lol cause they used to say guys need to do legs and we do now table has turned now these ladies need to step up and hit that upper body and just understand that they won’t get jacked unless they lift very heavy but if they keep medium level they’ll get Great results Good JOB GIRL SALUTE TO YOU AND YOUR CREW GOD BLESS

[@leleety21]

Krissy, why don't you do a pull up challenge? I can't do one either but I would absolutely love to do one one day and feel like a badass. It would be really cool if you showed how to train and progress, and it would be such an inspiration to see you do it. Maybe you could bring newbies along with you as well

I've always been active, and went to the gym but was never too sure what to do other than going on the treadmill. It got so boring that I went less and less, and eventually stopped until I came across your videos. They changed my mindset, a full 360! So exciting, so informative, and instilled so much confidence. I have been working out consistently for the past 2 months and can visibly see the changes. I was just wondering if there are any supplements to aid in muscle strength and growth that you can recommend?

[@tanyasisodia2492]

Would love it if you could create a program for new moms. Maybe we can all understand the bodily changes that a woman goes through after having a baby and maybe if there’s a way we could slowly get back to our original shape. ♥️
