40MIN Full Body Strength // Day 5: HR12WEEK 5.0

[@barbarabdavis]

I have relied on your strength training videos since Covid. They were a salvation, and still are. Thank you for making these workouts available to everyone. This year, I have decided, at the age of 70, to tackle your 12 week program. Just finished Week One and I am still here to talk about it. Looking forward to my rest days, but eager to hit it again Monday. Again, my sincerest thanks for all you do to help so many on their fitness journeys. You are so appreciated.

You go Barbara that’s inspiring to read, I’m struggling at 55😂

[@vasu925]

@@barbarabdavis Congrats! Proud of you ! In my early 60s and hope I am still doing this in 10 years!

[@sarahtolar3751]

You are an inspiration Barbara!!! And you are so right that HR has changed our lives and we give thanks for her everyday!!

[@pharahmercy]

I'm just happy that more than 50k people finished the week along with me. If you ever feel like you're alone, you're really not!

[@beenaturalbalm]

That moment in round 2 of the leg sets when you realise there will be a round 3!! Thanks Heather for a great week of workouts.

[@sheilalancelotta6962]

YES! OMG.... I realized that moment too! That's when I had to dig deep!

[@inhabitantofearth]

I just want to say thank you for making these workouts free, and that I love your logo 😊

[@litapaty]

Love the logo and new color is beautiful!

[@adyapratap]

Thanks a lot heather for this amazing week ,never been so eager to workout and never had this consistency.thanks a lot ❤❤❤❤

[@jewelzaz]

Hi HR community :) I completed first week with 5/5 exercises 😊 Feeling great and wanna thank you Heather for this well designed workouts. I am 50 yrs old and trying to keep my fitness level up 🎉

[@connie6410]

Congratulations! 🎉 It was a challenging week of workouts for sure 😅

[@litapaty]

Congrats and keep going!!! :D

[@jewelzaz]

@@litapaty thank you. I will :)

[@jewelzaz]

@@connie6410 yep, but we can do this right ;)

[@phindimalaza8736]

Day 5 completed!🙌 I'm feeling it on my back, quats and stomach🥵looking forward to the rest.

[@dinaramos544]

Been following Heather for a long time… her backgrounds(I always wonder the backstory to them), sharing her home space during Covid, the new music transitions, her logo transitions etc! I am beyond grateful to her. She has been my inspiration & home trainer forever! If you are here for the first time… this is your sign to keep going. You got this. Even when we don’t feel like it! We ALL go through it. Trust me, once you start the warm up, it’s all good! Thank you Heather for following your dream 🙏🏼👆🏼💥

[@aanne12]

I became successful because of 3 things: 1. deleted tik tok and instagram 2. l read the book : My Discipline by keezano 3. I started changing my body

[@MisMariaRosee]

amazing book

[@vasu925]

Did Heather workouts help with #3?

[@sandrabest1981]

Love these 3 sets of every exercise 💪😁let's build some strength and muscle. Thanks Heather

[@smitty9978]

Agree!

[@connie6410]

Me too!

[@Joanna_Crow]

I have to admit I like the sets of 2 rather than sets of 3 more🙈 But ny all time favorite are the NO REPEATS🙏🏻 Day 5 done!❤

[@soyoungNpompom]

Ohh I feel the same. As we can get bored by same sets though it’s all good work out. 2 sets was good, 3rd one was a little 😬😅

[@bjoy4013]

I don't mind the 3rd set, it's the warm up repeat that's honestly killing me. Once through the warm up and then LET'S GOOOOO!! 🔥

[@majazakosek4256]

Heather, thank you so much for making this program available yearly. I love your new studio! After this week we will definitely need some stretching. :)

[@kimmasi9301]

Heather saved me during Covid with her excellent free workouts and she’s been my trainer ever since. Thank you Heather for keeping me strong and healthy! Great first week!❤

[@SaraWilson-j5c]

5.0 is not disappointing! And the new music is great! Thanks, Heather! ❤

[@James1-5]

Week 1 down, 11 to go! God help us all! Thank you Heather for another incredible series. I love the new space; it's very you, very avant-garde. You are an inspiration to us all. Love & Peace.

[@cole021184]

Wow! Was that really hard for anyone else or just me?!?! Didn't realize how bad my balance was until today 😂😂. I didn't think k I would like this type but realized I really enjoyed it and needed it.

[@katbarber7225]

This is definitely what I love so much about following her programs, it points out a weak spot and then some exercises to strengthen it

[@Bgood7637]

I found it SO tough. In the best way. But I had to pause after some leg exercises because I was so out of breath using very heavy weights! 😅

[@kwailcamp]

To be honest workouts have become harder for me since Ive been in menopause and some days its hard to motivate myself to do anything especially when results dont come as easily now as they did even 3 years ago. Thank you for this workout regimen once again. It helps to keep me keeping on😊

[@Belfastboi]

I hear that ❤

[@oksanalebrun5476]

Week 1 done! I cannot believe I have managed it! After the third day, I really needed that rest day. So, I took your stretch session - 30 min., and felt relief in my muscles and in my mind. Following your recommendations, I added 15 min. jogging after the workouts on Tuesday and Friday. Again, my mind told me, "you are not able to do it." Yet I did and felt good. My upper body muscles are more sore than lower body. Thank you, Heather, for motivating and inspiring me all year round!

[@HollyJohnson-z5v]

Just finished 5/5! Legs were killing me on Wednesday so I took a day of rest but got back at it Thursday. Today I did two classes to catch up. Thank you Heather for offering these programs.

[@Heatherrobertsoncom]

No rush my friend, listen to your body and I’ll be here whenever you’re ready!

[@katkenziedr]

I have managed to finish 5 days of workout this week. I am feeling so accomplished since I have often worked out mostly 3 times a week. I am so grateful Heather. Lot’s of love ❤️ from Nairobi, Kenya 🇰🇪

[@emilyhouse3171]

Phew that was a sweaty one for me! First time trying to follow the workout as it’s released. Proud of myself for doing 5/5 of the first week. Hoping I can keep it up. Well done everyone!

[@elainelarge2576]

It's great to be starting the year with a new 12 week program. I've done all four programs, a couple two or three times. Thank you so much, Heather, for providing us with these amazing workouts. They keep us young - 65 years young for me and stronger thanks to your programs. Very grateful.

[@corinawolf195]

I just want to say thank you for making these workouts-program for free. 1 week completed and my arms and legs need the reset-day.

[@triciawainwright7054]

🎉we made it to day 5!🎉 Let’s do this! ❤❤ Yes full body!! ❤ Happy Thursday Heather and HR team!!!

[@todayisall]

Whew boy! So my first time doing HR12, I didn’t realize the weight recommendations were in the description. This time around, I’m clued in. Not only can I not lift 30-40 lb weights, I don’t even have them. So I stuck with the 10 (L), 15 (M), and 20 (H). I thought I was doing pretty well with my weights, but I guess I have a long way to go. Light weights notwithstanding, I’m still nice and sweaty!

[@daniprussi9537]

Really appreciate what you do for US. So beautiful and complete workouts for free.thank you Heather ❤

[@lindas.6082]

HR TEAM: Week 1 is ✅DONE!!! After a month of no workouts, this really tested my ability to get back on track. Feeling it the most in my legs. I didn't think I could go through with Day 3 with how sore they were feeling, but Day 4 helped ease the soreness and Day 5 felt like I was on top of the world getting through the 1st circuit. Really enjoyed the music today. ROUND OF APPLAUSE TO EVERYONE WHO PUSHED THROUGH AND GOT WEEK 1 DONE. Let's crush it team! Thank you, Heather for a spectacular week of self-care!! 💪

[@chaycroteau1107]

Heather you are not messing around!!!! Woooooweee what a week!!!!! Good job to everyone who completed WEEK 1 let's get this!! 🎉

[@patriciapelaez6557]

It’s amazing how my body loves your exercises. Thank you for your classes.😊

[@shannonrapaich6967]

As my husband said… I feel it from my eyes to my toes! Thanks for leading us every morning Heather!!!

[@AltaMenneh]

Haha! Well said! Same here😂

[@ashavinod1209]

I'm in this journey since 4 year's, thank you so much Heather for your immense support on fitness 😊

[@andreadawn3960]

Yeaaaaaaaahhhh!! Week 1 in the books! Thank you, Heather! Loving the strength workouts and subsequent powerful feeling I get after each of these workouts! Legs have been W-O-R-K-E-D this week. Also, in working on form, my core is feeling it this week too. Love, love, love!

[@saragraves2422]

I stepped away from HR the past three months and absolutely regretted it! I’m back with HR12week 5.0 and am loving the pain gently all over. Let’s go everyone!!!

[@heiditodor5551]

Made it through the whole week after a year and a half off nursing an injury. Your leg day had me sore for 4 days. 😂 I’m happy to be back to moving, regardless of the DOMS. Thank you for organizing and offering up your gifts to us!

[@sarahtolar3751]

Week One Done! WHOA! HR you are a genius! After day 3, I thought "if this is week one, how will I ever do week 12" 🤪 But you programmed the week perfectly. Thank you for giving our new year the best start ever!! WE LOVE YOU!!!

Thanks for being my motivator in the morning!❤

[@North_ofthe_GoldenRD]

Thanks for posting a day earl. I like to start on a Sunday. With my Monday thru Thursday schedule it works better. I doubled up and got it done today. Exhausted after not sleeping well Wednesday night. What a difference a bad nights sleep makes.

[@margarita8589]

First week done! Thanks Heather for once again challenging all of us. I love this new program! ❤

[@Belfastboi]

Made it. I find the 3 set also mentally tough because it seems like a mountain and hard for my mind to ride over however when you get to the last round it’s so relieving. Heather ain’t fooling around this year 😅❤

[@johannamacdonald1899]

Your workouts keep me fit and sane, Heather. I've just completed Week One and am feeling pumped. I'd been away for a couple of weeks and so felt it all over when I started, especially in the legs, but I'm loosening up now. Thank you so much.

[@MsAwelsh]

I was able to up my weight in the sumo squat to 25 lbs. I felt strong with each of these exercises and I love lay down push ups. Way to go team 5.0 Thank you Heather

[@divinemoon6549]

Wonderful finish to week 1! I'm feeling it the most in my arms, legs and bootay! 😁 See you next week!

[@emilyperry9014]

I done did it. Slept in this morning but i felt amazing after sleeping in (til 6am lol) so i told myself I'd take that as a win and workout later. I'm so proud of myself for doing it later and not beating myself up for sleeping in. Week 1 done!

[@megankennedy7983]

I have followed HR for years now, I have always loved her workouts but have never done a series! Never felt like I could keep up (my own laziness or distractions). Sooo excited that I completed the first week! 11 more to go :) thank you so much Heather for all you do! Your videos are the best and you're so sweet and inspiring. God bless you!

[@LoriDiLucente]

[@julieharris6095]

Week one ✅!!!!! Let’s gooo!!! Those rest days are a game changer!!! Loved this 1st week!

[@traceydavies3826]

Week 1 complete :-). Why did the warm up for this session feel like a mini work out ha ha!! Too many squats for me but I did them anyway but I enjoyed the upper body strength more with weights. Looking forward to seeing what Week 2 brings. This is my first 12 week programme with Heather (I have done other work outs with her previously) and I'm determined to see this through!

[@lizagabriel6265]

Awesome workout!! Thank you SO much Heather for all you do for your online community ❤

[@JuliaGibb-z2u]

Yay, made it through week 1. Ordered and used the yoga block suggested on Heather's site and it was a game changer for the split lunges!

[@smokey5lbc1]

Definitely feeling it in my legs. Walking has been… a challenge. 🥴 I really appreciate how the first weeks of each 12 week program build up/gradually increase intensity, giving my body time to adjust before we go full throttle. Week 1 done!✔️😅💪🏾🙌🏾

[@connie6410]

Week one is in the rearview mirror for me. It was challenging! I'm feeling it most in my glutes and quads, very glad for a rest day tomorrow. Thank you, Heather 🧡
