Hi Caroline...Hi everyone...welcome to week 6...we are now half way to being epic!! I have really enjoyed the first five weeks and am looking forward to the challenges to come!! Today’s looks really good but hard...10 minute sequences will be challenging! One of the many things I love about this series is how the workouts are always so varied and interesting and the exercises so well thought out. I realise this must take you a lot of thought and time, Caroline, so thank you! Your efforts make sure that intense, challenging exercise is always fun to do! Have a great week Caroline, and everyone else! Matthew

As a guy who was borderline anorexic a year ago, I completed 75% of this workout... Thanks a lot for this, I really needed something like this to make my training planned and consistent. I guess on the 3-4th try I will complete it whole with less rest than this time

[@anonymouspeacefulperson6199]

Well done one gil. I hope this programme provides the ability to bulk and build up to a healthier weight. I got on the scales this morning after weeks of bulking through insulin resistance due to medication even though following a healthy lifestyle and diet and last week starting my 8 weeks diabetes diet program after testing my blood sugars. 1.8kg weight loss for week one. Really pleased. Random BMs testing this week. So pleased I can now do a proper pushup yesterday. Best wishes

I know that I'm late for the party. Just started the epic program this winter. I was using 10 lb weights because that's all I had. I got 15 lb weights for Christmas and this was my first workout using them. I thought it would be too hard but I was actually smiling halfway through the workout. Feeling strong! (and almost 60 years old)

[@susanbarnes3351]

So thrilled I have stuck with this. Almost 58 years old and able to do this!

Great job! I somehow did all the pushups with her, unbelievable. Couldn't even do one at the start of epic.

[@karrinaworrin1552]

These workouts are great for every age! I’m 60 and nailed the whole workout but I’m used to using heavy weights and pushing myself. I did modify the weights to 12 & 15 lbs. tho. Next time I’ll aim for what Caroline uses. I have viewed so many other workouts for the last several years and CG your workouts rule far above all the others in my opinion and I bet everyone else agrees! These are strenuous challenging routines I believe but that’s what I want. Thank GOD for you Caroline Girvan! Since my gym has been closed due to the pandemic you lifted my pandemic experience to a much better place where nothing else would do. Heck even if my gym was open I’d still rather do Caroline Girvan’s workouts. I do warm up 10 to 15 minutes before I begin which I recommend beforehand and so does Caroline. I love Redefining Strengths warm up routines as well as Caroline’s. Everyone who thinks this is too hard (even the 60 and above crowd) just modify where you need to, use less weights or no weights at all until you master the move bcuz using good form is of higher priority or else risk injury. Sending many blessings to Caroline Girvan and everyone! Love all of the comments from everyone too as they’re so inspiring❤️

[@Jen-fk7pg]

These combinations are not only challenging but fantastically thought out. Each work out engages me and pushes me to go hard! The entire series so far has been the best way for me to start my day! Happy Monday! And thank you for being you! 🔥🔥🔥

Hey Caroline, as I was doing the pull overs I recognized my “core” engaging - how COOL, thought I :) - Through your workout series I am becoming SO aware of my body and the amazing thing happening with every move and repetition. I would NEVER have done this without your series. Words cannot say thanks enough. I’m getting closer to 33 where I will jump back in from my last loop before I had to stop due to an illness. I believe with all my heart that my symptoms would have been devastating had I not already been strong from the first 33 days. I see so many people around me in my life who unfortunately are falling apart physically and my greatest DESIRE is to INSPIRE, and I am every grateful to point them to you and your good sense series. Blessings to you and your family! Thank them for sharing you with us! Your kindness has surely changed a lot of lives.

I am also a NHS worker. Everyone who supports their family is a key worker. We applied much more informed consent to work in conditions like these, have access to tons of resources for physical, mental, financial support, and privileged enough to still earn a paycheck at a living wage during a time when millions are left struggling. Caroline is absolutely a key worker- and so is every damn person who supports their families.

Of the 4 complexes, I find the 1st one was very challenging; due to those push-ups. I had to pause the video, set my own 10 minute timer on my phone and went as my own pace as Carol suggested. I think I had tried my hardest today. For each of the push-up, I literally had to summon all my stamina 🥵🥵🥵🥵, this is the 1st time I did 3x 5 consecutive pushups off my knees. I did really struggle but yay it was a great accomplishment. Thank you Carol for another EPIC workout❤️

[@matthewalmond4688]

Hi Ellie...I do hope that all is OK for you! It sounded like you were finding some of the workouts hard...is that what you were saying? If so I think this is just because the workouts are hard...what I would say is don't get too worried about what weights you use. Choose a weight that is challenging for you...but not where you struggle to lift it. And don't worry about doing fewer reps and taking breaks. It would be lovely if you could continue with this programme and as you say this is a lovely supportive community. We wouldn't want to lose you! As I say...make the workouts your own, listen to your body and do what challenges you rather than what exhausts you. I do hope this helps. All good wishes, Matthew

It's just me and my body. ☺ Caroline is the top best...superior as far as instruction, implementing exercises and sequence for the parts of the body and that those exercises complient the surround muscles as to not fatigue and stress any particular part.

[@nwillgress]

Just completed it! I know I say this all the time but I just loved it. The combination of exercises is fantastic. The 3rd round though, that was tough! Had to take 3 or 4 extra breaks during that set! Used my 6kg all the way through. Also you have a new admirer Caroline! My 6 year old daughter also completed the workout using my 2kg dumbbells! She loved it too and at the end said she wanted to do more! Thank you again for all your workouts. I so thoroughly enjoy them :)

☑️ This got me dripping with sweat like crazy. I really love today's session. Coz within tht 10mins i got to really focus & improve on my form. Will definitely do this again, after the prog ends.

[@akritimjn]

Day 26 ✅ i was procastinating this one since three days... I'm just happy it's done now. Neither loved it nor hated it. Thank you Caroline ❤️

[@serena5268]

I think this workout is my favorite so far. I was so sure that I wouldn't be able to do it but the exercises were "easy" enough to keep going for 10 minutes. It was a perfect mix of making it challenging but doable at the same time. I am so amazed by myself that I could actually keep up and I feel so sore aswell but in a good way :)

[@nikolinajosipovic7611]

I just did this workout,first after 3 weeks,I use 4kg DB..just slowly like you said,thank you Caroline so much❤❤😘😘

[@leawallis9499]

Thank you for this series! This is 1 of my favorite Epic workout days. I enjoy complexes. I also like that your doing the same set of exercises for a set period of time. It enables me to focus more on my form and less on watching the screen to see what is next. There is nothing wrong with repeating movements.

[@alexandralane7690]

Wow ! I was dreading this one when I saw it but I enjoyed it so much I especially loved the second circuit Row/curl/push/lunge feeling like my fitness is going through the roof thank you for all your amazing content Caroline 😊💜

Hello Everyone. Cheers we are in week 6!!! I did a sneak peak today and am super excited to do this (later in the day). To challenge myself in the next 5 weeks, I've moved to a little heavier dumbbells. Excited!!!

[@matthewalmond4688]

Hi Supriya...it’s so brilliant when you find you can use heavier dumbbells...so great when you can see real progress. Well done! Have a great workout and a lovely day. Matthew

[@Lisa222aries]

Hi Caroline. I just wanted to say thanks for putting this epic series out there. Like many, I had to stop going to the gym due to COVID. Your workouts are by far better than anything I could do at the gym on my own. I look forward to completing this series and going on to the 2nd. You are amazing and I can't thank you enough.

[@melindafelfoldi1773]

All of your workouts are fantastic, but this one is brilliant! The combinations were super! I would be grateful for many similar structure of workouts. :-)

[@tiffanybrantley7039]

Time flew by! Especially loved the 3rd complex!!!

[@tumisangPhole]

Caroline my Caroline😅you never seize to amaze me, I loved everything about this workout, the complexity and challenge in this🤗 the first complex was more challenging but took my time executing every movement and yes I used the 10kg DB! Keep pushing us out of our comfort zone, as we're reaching for our body goals💪❤️

[@CarolineGirvan]

Excellent Tumisang!!! So happy you liked it as much as I did!! A lot of fun too!!! Way to go!! Triceps tomorrow!! 💪💪🔥🔥😁

[@brookeg827]

Thank you for always making me feel like a bada**! With this program, you have not only helped me to gain strength and muscle but you have also given me a much healthier view on fitness. You have steered me away from looking at any minor flaws that I felt I needed to fix and focus instead on just being proud of each workout and all of the progress I see. I can't thank you enough for helping me get over that. I sound very vain, but it is what it is. You are one of a kind- not many trainers are so down to earth. Anyways, this workout was amazing and my core felt really worked with no crunch in sight 😂 Thank you so much for everything you do for us! We love you! 💓💓💓💓

Hi Brooke...lovely comment and lovely to hear from you! See Yiu tomorrow for triceps and abs! Matthew

Have a magnificent Monday, everyone! I know I will once I am done with this workout! 😳 Previewed for the morning. This workout will definitely align my physical and mental strength! 💥

[@bethanybauk]

Yes!! It was a mental one!! Great challenge inside and out!! Hope you loved it too! 💕👏🏻

[@thyiff2219]

I COMPLETED DUMBBELL COMPLEX! This was the FIRST time I held onto DBs for 10 mins straight. 🔥 The first complex was the hardest to do. I can do the first complex twice it would be an awesome quick full-body burner. My favorite was the third complex. The snatches and push presses made me feel so powerful! 😆 Used 15lbs DBs. ✅10/26 By the way, my glutes are still sore!!! Could it be from last Wednesday’s glutes and Friday’s full body moves????! 😳 🍑

[@thyiff2219]

@@bethanybauk High five! We did it! The first complex was a torcher! But I got into the groove for the rest. I tried not to look at the countdown clock and just flow continuously through the moves. I can’t believe we held onto to weights for 10 mins straight. 😱 I hope she won’t do a 20 minutes complex like she mentioned in one of her previous post. 🤭

[@bethanybauk]

@@thyiff2219 💀 me too! That would be a mental killer for me! 😂 I really liked the third complex as well! Way to go with the 15lbs! I used 2-20lbs and 1-25 for the last set! First time using that weight (2-20lb) for that long (upper body) First time using 25 for pullovers! We. Are. Strong! 💪🏻👊🏻

[@thyiff2219]

@@bethanybauk WOWZA!!! You used Caroline’s weight ! 🦾🦾 And 25lbs for pullovers??! 👏 I won’t be there for a while. I usually would try to do 20lbs for lower body and 10lbs for upper. But I stuck with 15lbs for the whole duration. Caroline still smoked me with her reps for the first complex. 🤣 I don’t have 25lbs. My next weight is 30lbs. Should I try to find 25s? 🤔
