  • This is a follow along 30 minute full body dumbbell workout that will target every muscle group with compound movement to help you become stronger, build lean muscle, burn energy for hours after completing and basically leave you feeling awesome!!
    The exercises are performed for 30 seconds each, 30 seconds rest. The exercises are performed for 3 sets each.
    The weight I am using is 15kg x 2 dumbbells for your reference. So yes, as heavy as you have access to and slow paced, controlled and full range of motion. If you have lighter weights than you would prefer, simply perform more reps than me and at a slightly faster pace.
    HIGH SQUATS
    SUMO DEADLIFT SQUAT
    STATIC LUNGE (switch leg everytime)
    ROMANIAN DEADLIFT
    SHOULDER PRESS (2 or 1 dumbbells)
    BENT OVER ROW (switch arm everytime)
    CHEST PRESS
    PULLOVER
    I would just like to point out the following key points to this workout:
    ● Be sure to switch leg on lunges every set and switch arm on rows every set!
    ● With the single arm rows, try to stretch upper middle back by taking it slow at bottom to let muscles lengthen then draw elbow up. Switch arm every set!
    ● I am performing the shoulder press with one dumbbell as well as Sumo deadlift, however if your weights are lighter than you wish, simply perform with both dumbbells!
    ● Make sure during Romanian deadlifts to keep shoulder blades together, knees slightly bent, push bum back and keep head in line with torso as it lowers!
    I hope you all enjoy this strength training and really allow yourself to feel each contraction!
    I would consider this strength workout a super workout to progress in weight over time! I would definitely suggest this type of full body workout with dumbbells once a week if you really are wanting to increase muscle, along with bodyweight sessions and isolation sessions as such shoulders, glutes etc. Overtime, aiming to increase reps then move up in weights!💪
    And don’t forget.. plank 2 minutes at the end!!🤩
    Happy training!!

    After struggling with my weight for years, I have finally been able to lose a lot of weight using a pretty method. I can't post the link here but you can find it on my channel
    To anyone who wants to lose weight as well:
    - Drink water before meals, consuming a glass of water before meals can help you feel fuller, which may lead to consuming fewer calories during the meal.
    - Replace sugary drinks with water, swap out sugary sodas, juices, and energy drinks with water. Not only will this reduce your calorie intake, but it will also eliminate empty calories and added sugars from your diet.
    - Stay hydrated, sometimes feelings of hunger can actually be masked thirst. Aim to drink water consistently throughout the day to stay hydrated and avoid mistaking thirst for hunger.
    See you guys when you reached your weight loss goals and feel amazing!

    3 days in a row of Ms Caroline for my wife and I. We’ve been doing lots of Beach Body and we just found Caroline. Folks...this is better. Nobody yelling at you. Nobody trying to tell you to give it more effort. Nobody making the fat girl in the corner do the dumb-down version. No breaks that are too short. No hyperactive moves. We just did this full body and guess what? I have a full body burn. Yes - the body needs change doesn’t it. Sometimes the mind does too. Right now this is good on many levels. Caroline gives this away. She’s like AthleanX Jeff Cavalier - they just care about you and want you to get a good workout with them. Thanks again Ms Caroline. You are very helpful!

  • @TheMidnightHag

    I’m neurodivergent and want to thank you for making these so calm, clear, simple, and quiet. The picture-in-picture where you show the upcoming set, and the way you silently demo the form from clear angles that are easy to mirror…that makes such a huge difference for me!
    I love that these videos don’t have intense music, and that you’re not coaching us to power through. That actually takes me out of the workout and demotivates me because I’m trying to kind of go to this mental place where my exertion feels like meditation. If someone is reminding me that it’s hard labor and there’s x amount of reps left, I can’t do that.
    Your physical set up is very well lit, it feels serene, and even though you’re in peak condition I was actually more struck by the relatable adjustments and facial expressions you made. It made me feel like we were on the same human team instead of me feeling like an old blob who just will never be a natural jock.
    Your small intro at the beginning where you said we could make the workout our own also takes the anxiety and pressure off, I didn’t feel like there was potential for failure, just an opportunity to grow and maybe learn what works for me.
    I made it all the way through, with a long intermission after all the lunges just to cool down and center myself. My legs were quaking and felt like jello, but I’m proud I could do it! I did have a few less reps on the lunges because I was approaching collapse which is what’s important anyway.
    I love upper body and am upgrading to heavier weights next time for that.

    Combined with a diet and hella protein I noticed a big difference in my body.
    I look more toned, and developed a little muscle so far. :)

      You can do this girls. I just lost 30lbs. I have 20 more lbs to go.
      This is what I did. I started at 182lbs just had my 5th baby. I've lost this amount of weight before with my 3rd baby. Anyway, I did keto inaddition to eating LESS CALORIES. Just because you do keto doesn't mean you lose weight. Eating less and the diet go hand and hand. I did no workout at all for the first 30lbs of weight loss. Just pure discipline.
      I'm at that stage now (I'm 155 now) I need to work out and eat healthy to lose weight. If I kept up just eating less and not working out, I would have to eat 900 calories a day and that's NOT HEALTHY. I've done it before and I never want to do it again. It doesn't work. At some point you have to move and actively burn calories. Restriction only goes so far.
      Lastly, you have to have purpose of WHY you are doing it. Looking good is not enough (it helps though. Lol) but you have to tell yourself it's for your health. AND pray. You can't do this without Jesus. You really can't. I pray and ask for the grace of temperance and moderation because it was lack of temperance and immoderation that got me to the weight gain in th 1sr place! Lol last last, I like to turn my dieting into a prayer. I meditate and reflect on those who literally don't have enough food to eat and I think about them and almost don't eat out of solidarity with them, in addition to praying for them (I do want them to eat!) But in my catholic faith I look at fasting as a prayer and a form of penance. It really helps me during the times when I want to eat junk food or just eat more. It keeps me motivated, espeially since we are in the season of lent. Anyway. God is the real reason I'm able to do this.
      Good luck girls. Hope this helps!!

    First day of doing this workout. I’m a 14 year old and I love working out. I usually don’t follow a routine when I exercise, I just do stuff I know for a hour. And I wanted to break the habit by following a video. I love how this workout is REALLY full body. Works my arms, shoulders, legs and glutes! I wish there was more of a focus to core besides that. But this is one of the best exercises that I’ve done because I love that there is equal amount of working out and breaks. Also I ADORE that Caroline explains her method before getting into the video for beginners or to people who are new. Unlike people that talk about it throughout the video. And the plank challenge at the end is genius because users can track how long they can hold a plank for and see how they progressively get better at it. I will be giving updates about my progress for the next few weeks while doing this video everyday! :)

    101% positive feedback !
    I was a gym person until lockdown happened last year. Since then Gyms are on and off as the number oscillates. Fitness is perishable and I lost all my stamina within few weeks. I decided to do something at home bought some dumbbells. From last 2 month I have following this video thrice a week and on first attempt I wasn't able to complete the sets. After a month ( 12 sessions) I upgraded from 2.5KG dumbbell to 5 kg dumbbell. Now after2 month I am able to complete the sets in 40-45 minutes. My target is to reach 30 minutes first and then I'll upgrade dumbbell to 7.5 KG.
    This is amazing change and I feel like I am very fast approaching my fitness peak. The 30 seconds rest really helps and this becomes a weight training class where you have toned trainer to teach. She sets the tone in initial few minutes and then you are 100% focused only on training. the times, the music, and off course the trainer is simply awesome. Caroline you are changing lives ! Loads of love and best wishes.

    I’m so excited to try my at home strength training journey! I ordered a pair of 5LB weights to start. I’m very thankful for videos like these because I’m intimidated by the strength equipment at my gym (and the people too 😅). Thank you!

    I’ve been doing this workout once a week for just over a year now and it’s my favourite! Definitely seen a healthy, toned change in my body. ❤️

    wow, i really noticed an improvement with the plank in the end! i remember when i used to struggle so much and was shaking insanely after the first thirty seconds, but this time it felt even kinda easy. i just found my love for working out during the last year. i didn't lose any weight, i actually gained some (which was very much needed, coming from a disordered eating background) but i also gained so much more. strength. and life. sometimes i think i haven't improved at all, but this workout showed me i really did! so remember that the changes on your inside and your mind are so much more important than any appearance based stuff!

    I'm coming up on my 2 year Heart-i-versary (heart transplant) and found this video for dumbbells. I've had some challenges these past two years, but -- finally -- all the organs are settling, baselining and maintaining. Time to get back at it and your video was/is perfect!! Thank you!

    I came across this video today and absolutely love how you have put it together! I love working out to music and often find videos where there is a lot of talking. This is so easy to follow! Will be implementing this workout tomorrow morning 🏋🏻‍♀️

    Great video! Made me feel like I was working out with a friend rather than an instructor. Also very motivational even with no speaking, definitely my favorite!!!!!

    I LOVE that you don't talk! I LOVE the beeping, easy to hear and see timer! I LOVE the little video that shows the next movement during rest! I LOVE how you just point to what is important and how you just hold up fingers as a reminder what set we're on! I LOVE your simple, straight forward, no BS approach plus your music doesn't suck and you are nice to look at. I'm sure the guys (gals?) Swoon at your accent. Well done! Thank you very much. Theses are by far my favorite excersize videos. LOVE!
