1-22-24. Day 1 of week 4. Today I was able to complete 12 reps of skull crushers with 10 lb dumbbells for the first time. Super proud of myself. 60 yrs young.

[@CanadianCarnivore2021]

That's awesome, way to go, Marilyn. I'm at the same level. I've really been paying close attention to my form and it's amazing how much more I get out of the set by doing so, especially with the skull crushers 💪💪💪

Great progress. Similar here. Started with 3kg last November and with this new programme I’ve finally increased to 5kg each dumbbell. Hard going but gets easier each workout. By the way I’m 71 next month. Never too old to take care of your body and mind. Loving Cee’s workout programmes. ❤

[@claudeatscarbs]

I’m a 44 yr old mom to two toddlers. Heavy into fitness and lifting heavy from a young age (my 20’s on). Even met my husband in a gym. A former personal trainer (hoping to do it again soon). My pregnancies took a lot out of me and I found myself weak, tired and…fluffy. Nothing wrong with that. Looked for and tried many KZbin workouts that I could do while being a stay at home mom. Nothing stuck and I was very picky b/c of my knowledge. Tried to go on my own but lacked structure and needed to “not think”. I felt defeated and even more tired. Then I found you! I’ve been doing your 30 min workouts consistently and not so consistently sometimes. You’ve got it all Cee! Thank you for doing this. So glad I found you! I feel like myself again and the example I want to be to my little girls. Having my “guns” back is a nice bonus, too ❤

I started your workouts in September and have kept track of my 3 times of week workouts with you to help me stay accountable to myself. You are exactly what I need. I am 52 and your workouts are the first in my lifetime that provide me strength without getting injured and make me feel like I can sustain the routine without being exhausted. They actually have given me back some energy that I didn’t think would ever come back. You inspire me, thank you from the bottom of my heart.

I am stronger, eating and sleeping better. My chronic knee pain is lessening as I build strength. Thanks so much Cee🎉❤. Showing up is the hardest part some days, but once I get that first set in, I am 100% committed. Can't wait to share this new year of health with all of you!😊

Same here. Started to do the workouts a few months ago. Planning to be super fit and lean when I’m turning 60 in august. These 40 minutes feel that I’m less rushed. I’m missing the description in the upper left corner though. And I could do without the music.

I too am outgrowing my weights for certain lower body exercises. I've been taking a small handtowel and wrapping it around two weights. It provides a "handle" for me to hold tight and makes "one-dumbell". I thought others may like this hack if they haven't already thought of it! I am on week two and loving this workout. Already see an improvement and I am not bored because I am really paying attention to the difference I feel each time I do the workout! Thank you so much for your inspiration, smart and thoughtful workouts and knowledge!

[@CanadianCarnivore2021]

Hi there, I'm doing the full 8 weeks. Good luck with your fitness goals.

[@victoriac4293]

I'm doing this for the month of January and I'm definitely finding it to be getting a little easier. Not a lot, but it seems I'm ready to increase the weight. I have a couple of issues, tho. First, I think I may be "maxxed out" on what I can handle at home. I'm lifting 40 pounds for both deadlifts and I'm not sure my back can handle a "bump" to 50 (I have osteoporosis). The other issue is, I've been lifting for at least a year and a half now and I'm not seeing much in the way of results. I've been curling 15 pounds *forever* but an increase to 20 is just not doable (I literally can't do it). What am I doing wrong? I've seen a nutritionist and that was no help (I eat pretty healthy, tho I do need to bump my protein intake). Is it possible to "successfully" lift a weight but not see results because the wrong muscles are being recruited due to the weight actually being too heavy??

[@KarryTippit]

The only competition in the room was my mind and body, my body because it's finding strength again and my mind for not letting me give up. The only other thing in the room was you, giving instruction, telling me when to start, and when the last rep was; no saccharine sweet words of encouragement (which I always tell to f-off anyway) or overly loud music.

Day two of this one! Could really feel all my muscles after day one! Love it thank you! 🤩 🤩🤩🤩❤

Hi, Cheryl. I'm 66 and have been doing your workouts for a year now! I have seen good progress in muscle mass gain in my legs and arms and I feel so much stronger. Unfortunately at the moment, I've been out sick, but am anxious to get back to it. Meanwhile, I decided to take a peek at your 40 min video just to take a look for when I'm ready. I love the idea of an 8 week challenge. If I may make one small comment though, I found the volume of the music a bit too loud. It seemed to compete with your voice and I found it distracting while trying to listen to your instructions. But since I'm familiar with all these exercises from your other videos, it will be easy to turn the volume down and just follow along. Thank you for providing all these workouts for us. You are making such a big difference in so many lives. To be stronger and healthier as we age is such a gift. We love you!

I love your videos . Easy to follow from home and user friendly. I am trying to stick for 3 times a week. This is perfect for people who work with difficult schedules , kids, etc. please keep doing this awesome and useful content . You are my motivation to lift weights.

TOUGH TOUGH TOUGH! Love it! ❤ Only made it through 2sets, w/15lb & 8lb weights ....... 65 and staying alive!!! I will conquer this one! 💪🏽 Coach Cee 😊

[@christinescott8830]

This was the best 45 min of my day! So grateful for you. 4th time doing this one. ❤

Great workout to get back into weights. Started lighter today, moving to heavier in next time. Love your pace and the music was just right too.

[@kristagrayson6899]

Happy New Year! Thank you for continuing to share your workouts. This is what I needed to start 2024 on the right foot! Please keep them coming.

[@janiceedney4620]

Just finished my second day of the 8 weeks for 3 days a week. Thanks again. WHEW AGAIN!!!!

[@dedebesch6861]

Yes! I recently found you in KZbin and I love your workouts. I am super excited for the 40 minute workout format. 👏👏👏 Do you plan to have a weekly 40 minute workout plan similar to your weekly 30 minute workouts? 🤞 Merry Christmas. I am super excited to continue into the New Year with you. ❤

[@Mimi-ni3il]

No she said her 40 min one is longer because there are exercises that must be completed on both sides. It’s the same exercise volume as the thirty. And I believe she will be continuing with 30. I’ve gotten great results with 30 min. More is not necessarily better.

[@dinner-at-the-diner]

she explained this will be ONE same 40 min video to repeat for all 8 weeks. OR you can still go back to doing her weekly 30 min videos 3x a week and change to doing the new 30 min one every week. Point being there IS value to sticking to ONE SAME routine for 8 weeks, as she opens saying

[@goingbacktoourroots]

Oh 40 minutes get us that little extra for the New Year! Love it. Round one here I come

[@simonettaserusi4631]

Ciao Cheryl, ho completato 16 settimane dei 20' ×5week, 7settimane dei 30'×3week, lower and upper body, core. Adesso sono alla terza settimana di ogni 30' per 3 volte a settimana. Mi sta aiutando tantissimo ad aumentare la forza. Non vedo l'ora di fare questo tuo nuovo workout da 40', sperando sia il primo di tanti altri. A febbraio spegnerò 55 candeline 🎂,. Spero di arrivarci ancora più in forma grazie a te. Sei fantastica 💪💪💪🔝🔝🔝😍😍

[@carolynstockton5876]

What a gift you are! This 63 year old appreciates you very much. Happy New Year!

[@carlamazique2190]

Thanks, Cheryl! Love your workouts. I just turned 65 and have been faithfully doing your 30 minute workouts since May. You are awesome. I’m stronger and tighter! I must say that I missed seeing the supersets and your weight numbers throughout the workout. I still loved it though. Happy New Year!🎉

[@dianezhi]

Week 4 done! I decided to move to other programs , craving a bit of variety. Thanks for this one, I had fun with it. I am going to try the shorts.

[@KarinHjelm-hg9oh]

Oh I just loved this workout, looking forward to see the change in my strength and weight on my dumbbells on this 8 weeks program! Thank you again Cee for all of your work for us! You are a true star! 🌟 🤩

[@huntingtonthethird]

Changing into clothes to do this now! I didn't know a content creator was making this type of workout but here you are. It will keep me from doing the same things on my own simply because I like them. Thank you!❤❤❤

[@CristellaMartinez-jk8hw]

Thank You Cee! Love the workout! Sound is perfect!❣️😎 Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us! In preparing for the new year and going through my 2023 calendar, I realized I’ve been following and working out with you since February 2023. It’s no wonder why I feel and look great!🏋🏻‍♀️😍

[@vszinke]
