I was a runner for about 38 years. I’ve been strength training now for 3 years. I’ve always considered my lower body super strong. This work out kicked me. I will be so much stronger because I found PJ

23/25 DONE! I’m doing this workout on the app, but had to come over here to KZbin because this is where it all started! I’m 51 and since I started working out with PJ 3 months ago (3 week body weight program) I 1) have more energy 2) don’t grunt when I bend over or squat to get something 3) have more lubricated joints 4) haven’t injured myself (ie thrown out my back like I did when doing other programs) 5) shoveled our driveway by myself as a surprise for my husband. Big wins- I COULD do it and I wasn’t sore the next day. Boom! Thanks, PJ. You have changed my life. I’m a fan for life!

And that I can easily fit them into my day. And how great I feel afterwards. I haven’t done the challenge in 25 days as I had a holiday in the middle that threw me off but I will have done almost all of them (minus some of the stretching cos I’m an Ashtanga yoga girl). So thank you very much. It’s been awesome and I will keep coming to you for my workouts. I’d love to gift you my book Magnificent Midlife: Transform Your Middle Years, Menopause and Beyond.
