IRON Series Finale 30 Min Arms, Abs and Core Workout | 30
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 23 авг 2024
- Finishing the Iron Series with my favourite workout of the series!
This workout was everything that I personally love in an arm workout! A mixture of dumbbells and some bodyweight, the focus on FULL RANGE strict movement patterns from the curls to tricep exercises whilst SOFT straightening of arms when needed so no severe jolting. The mind to muscle connection is a major part of curls and extension at the elbow for me… during curls I imagine the bicep muscles shortening, triceps relaxing to perform the curls; the triceps shortening and contracting for those dips, skullcrushers and pressing.
If you find any of these movements not particularly challenging by the last few reps, this means you could lift slightly heavier, or you may simply need to keep those elbows more steady in curls, elbows closer during tricep press or lower dumbbells that bit further during skullcrushers.
This logic applies to the entire Iron Series.
There may be some movements you know you can lift heavier in so a perfect opportunity to revisit this series and challenge yourself further! Or pay even more attention to how you perform the movements. Nearly every single movement we can make less challenging… or more challenging! Learning your body and how to manipulate your positioning can maximise output per rep!
And onto this workout!! The final!! It’s going to be fun!!
For this workout you will essentially need some dumbbells and your mat!
For dips, you can either use a chair for bodyweight dips or dip bars. Alternatively, if you prefer, perform Diamond Press!
The timer will be on for a majority of the workout 60 seconds per exercise with 30 seconds rest inbetween!
Once we hit the abs & core, the timer there will be 60 seconds followed straight into another exercise for 30 seconds. There is no specific rest but always take those few seconds to get into position!
The abs and core exercises are paired together and each pair is performed for 2 sets!
The dumbbells I am using for your reference are 2 x 12.5kg for triceps and 2 x 8kg for biceps!
I am using dip bars for the dips but you can absolutely perform dips on a chair, or even tricep press as an alternative! I will demonstrate chair dips as the alternative on the screen!

I hope you have gained so much more than simply muscle… but even more respect for what your body and mind can accomplish. You are stronger than you realise!
Congratulations to you and it’s been an honour to have you lift with me over the last 6 weeks!

Caroline I’m going to miss Iron Series. Throughout this series, I got over my intimidation towards your previous programs and feel confidence that I could carry myself out with strength and determination. Thank you so much 😊
Hi Connie...great comment...so fantastic to read how you are gaining strength...and confidence! That’s brilliant! Thank you for your reply to my comment...yes my half marathon is today...I’m excited to do it...but I can’t resist doing thus brilliant workout first! Hope you have a great workout and a happy Sunday! Matthew
@@matthewalmond8274 meet you real time at the next CG workout! So pleased to have met you and other liked mind individuals here! Good luck with the half marathon ☘️
@@Connie700 Thanks Connie...I really loved this workout...and I’m sure you will too! And it was so lovely to see Ralph and Winston at the end! Right...better go and run this half marathon! I need to be quick as it starts at 8.45 am!! Enjoy your day! Matthew
Hello Connie! Big congratulations on reaching day 30! I hope you continue enjoying every row, press and squat on your journey!

i love this woman! she is the n
best on youtube! so much effort that she provides! i actually cant believe all this is for free! thanks, Caroline!! really appreciate all series and programs!!! you are an inspiration. do ur trainings 3 times a week!
The surprise ending made me so incredibly happy that I started crying. Might have been exhaustion from a tough workout but who’s to say…
I also cried but I think it was from seeing the puppy 😭❤️
❤❤❤
Omg I cried too. Omg so nice to know I wasn’t going crazy. I feel so accomplished
It took me six months to get through the series, mainly because my dog had health issues and my workouts got derailed for a while. Although it wasn’t the reason I started the series I’m now working to get stronger so I can carry her around easily. So the ending was extra special to me ❤
The dogs made up for the loooog ab and core section with no rest period! 😂
Just finished my 3rd full round of the Iron series. When I first began, I was coming back from a very long break due to a painful situation. I started with 5 and 10lb bells, and many times just bodyweight. I just finished this 3rd round using 25lbs as often as possible, and when CG used 8.8, I used 10lb! I did my best to match her weights, as long as I had them. I just got a pair of 30's yesterday and will begin round 4 of Iron this coming Monday. I cry on this ending every time. I invite my labrador come in for pets while CG's pups are getting their pets. Caroline, you will never know how grateful we are for you!
That's awesome! Keep up the good work!
I've done my 1st and can't wait to start again on Monday
Keep going. I just finished my third round today too🎉🎉
My third time round as well and I cry too!! It's a sense of accomplishment for sure.
👏🏻👏🏻💪🏼💪🏼
This is my third go around doing the Iron Series and headed for the forth. I'm 70 and feeling fabulous. Love Love Love everything Caroline Girvan so thank you thank you thank you!!!!
🎉 waaw süpersiniz 39 yasinda ölmeyi bekleyen ben😢hiç bir şey yapmak istemeyen ama yapanlara hayranım❤
I would really love to understand what you are saying!!! @@ecekarlik6064
@@sally4436 Yay the 70+ club! I notice from comments which I read religiously that there are at least a few of us. I'm currently on 6th round day 12 tomorrow!
So sad that this the last one!! I loved everything about this series, the length, all lifting, the format -EVERYTHING 🙃
This was the best!
Thank you Carolyn 💖💖
Hi Natasha...hasn’t thus been such a fantastic series...and what a great way to finish it off! I loved the biceps and abs...and I’m even learning to enjoy dips! Wasn’t it lovely to see Winston and Ralph at the end...aren’t they so cute...and they clearly love Caroline so much! Right...I’m off to run a half marathon now!!! Enjoy your Sunday! Matthew
Hello Natasha! Me too… it’s been a blast! Massive well done Natasha!!👊🏼🤩
@@CarolineGirvan Thank you! ❤️❤️
Lol, the dogs at the end is the perfect finishing! So cute. This was such an amazing series and I'm gonna start over again starting tomorrow. This last workout's combination with core and abs is awesome. Loved it. Thank you so very much for all you do and it's always such a delight to follow you daily. Getting stronger after each series, so happy about that. Have a wonderful evening Caroline! xo
I've revisited the entire series twice and it is amazing every time. I've made great progress. I will continue looping the series and challenging myself to get stronger!
I loved seeing the doggies at the end. I wasn't able to do all of these exercises because of health reasons, but will go back to the beginning and do as many as I can. Thank you Caroline for your excellence!
Get better soon; hopefully in time for "Fuel"
This was one of the best 6week programs I have ever done, as a 49 year old man I say it was awesome, and thank you for making it available!
I just finished this series and was overcome with emotion and cry here on my mat grateful for you, for this series, and for the strength this has given me in one of the hardest times in my life. God bless you!
I’ll definitely repeat this series while waiting for the next Caroline program! Thanks CG!
Trembling triceps? Biceps about to explode? Abs on fire? Sounds like good fun!! I’ve loved every moment of IRON and I’m excited to do it again with heavier weights, it has been a game changer for me!! I hope everyone had a great time pumping IRON, I know I did ♥ Thank you so much Caroline, I am so grateful for your generosity, creativity, and very positive and healthy philosophy on working out and getting strong!
So grateful! Thank you Devansh for your enthusiasm! ❤️ Caroline's programs so much!🙏🏾
Morning Devansh...great comment..and it’s always so brilliant to train with you too! Doesn’t this workout look like a superb way to finish the series! I’m running the Bracknell Half Marathon thus morning...but I just can’t resist doing this workout first! Abs and biceps...two of my favourites! Have a lovely Sunday, Devansh!
Hi Caroline...hi everyone...all finished and I so much enjoyed this! I loved the abs...I so much enjoy non stop abs...and the biceps and I’m even learning to enjoy tricep dips! So lovely to see Ralph and Winston at the end...they clearly love you so much, Caroline!! Oh well...better go and run this half marathon...it starts at 8.45 am!! Raining at the moment...hope it stops! I’ll catch up with you later, Devansh...I’m sure you’ll have a great session! Matthew
Devansh agreed so much Iron is MY game changer 🙌🏼

Can't believe it's over! I'm starting again tomorrow! The first time I've ever finished anything! Thank you Caroline!
I JUST FINISHED THE IRON SERIES!!!!!! I’m trying not to cry tears of joy in this gym 90% full of men 🥲😂 Thank you thank you!!! Can’t wait to take my measurements but mostly thankful for you Caroline & for the strength, health, & confidence I have regained getting back into your work outs after a year of not doing well mentally or physically. You are a God send! ❤🙏🏽🫶🏽💪🏽💕👏🏽 it may have taken me MONTHS, not just 6 weeks. But I did it!!! 🎉 “Let’s goooo!”
Hey did you loose Weight if yes tell me how much
Hey Caroline! I finished this workout series just now, the date is August 6, 2024. This particular workout was so good, my fingers are struggling to type for real haha but I just feel so proud of myself completing this series that I had to share my experience. You've made me one strong woman. For someone like me with gym anxiety, you made sure to make these workouts even more effective than working out at the gym. After every iron finisher I had tears of accomplishment and that made my day. I went from 78 kgs to 71 kgs through my journey of Iron series. My heartfelt gratitude to you, Caroline! Also, the surprise at the end gave me happy tears, little fur babies have my heart
This has been my favourite series so far. Thank you so much, Caroline. We love you ❤️
Definitely a favourite for me too
Oh my goodness where to start Caroline ? It was ( it is ) an amazing Series !! I enjoyed every workout , the music , the set up . Thank you Caroline !! Feeling so much stronger and all the investments are worth it ( new equipment , dumbbells, barbell etc ) hope you all GIRVANATORS have an fantastic last workout day 🧡👊🙏 . Well I hope we can have another workout series very similar to this one . I will start again on Monday with my heavier weights and will see how it goes ...Wish you all a nice Sunday . LETS GO !
Hi Sula...what a great comment! Hope you have a fantastic workout today...I just loved it...and hope you have a fantastic time doing the series again with heavier weights! I bet you’ll be amazed by the weights you can use now! Have a lovely Sunday! Matthew
Did this series 3 times. Twice pregnant during second and third trimesters and now once postpartum. The simple moves allowed me to modify easily. Thank you Caroline! My second baby recovery was 1000% better and I have you to thank!!
I don’t think I’ve ever felt so strong! Coming off of some health issues, the best day I’ve had so far physically, was 30g of protein a meal + a snack, and this series! Thank you so much Caroline!!! 💪🏻 🔥
Out of all the programs, the Iron Series is the best. Absolutely love the strength training,64 and wanting more.
Loved this series and I'll continue with this. The addition of the pups at the end made me smile. All I could imagine was them waiting to join you. Dogs are a must for any family. Thank you again, Caroline for all that you are and for all that you do.
Caroline thank you for creating this amazing workout series for free! I am a 30 year old woman from Turkey, this was my first weight training experience, i grew so much mentally and physically, i can not even believe it. I enjoyed every second of this series! I can not thank you enough.. ❤️
Merhaba ben de baslamayi dusunuyorum da kilo vermek amacli sizde sonuclar nasildi yazar misiniz
Thank you Caroline from the bottom of my heart. I am so grateful that you have shared your Iron Series with us on RUclips. I just finished day 30 and am going to start again. I found your program when my beloved best pup friend Rebecca was killed. I am lost. I used to walk with her for hours on end each day. She was a very energetic German Shorthaired Pointer. I started your Iron Series to take up some of my time and to help me with my grief. I am so thankful that you brought your doggies out for a hello. It really made my day. I see that you have your app out now and may switch to that so I can contribute to all of your love and hard work that goes into creating this program. Blessings to you
It’s the first time I finish a programme 🙌🏻Thanks Caroline for your dedication. In fact I bought 8kg, 12kg and 16kg kettlebells and a 30kg barbell; all that thanks to you 🏋🏻♀️
It’s incredible, your sessions are shorter but soooo EFFECTIVE. This suits me !!! Thanks from Mauritius 🇲🇺🌴 🏖
Well done!! Wow they are good weights!
I prefer the shorter sessions. I used to ignore any over 30mins!
@@darnitthelma4247 thanks for your message and happy you’re a fan of Caroline. I actually quite like going for one hour sessions too as it’s good to vary our formats !
Hi Caroline!! That is amazing strength! I am a guy and training this video I could only manage with half kg dumbbells throughout and could only do 4 bicep curls with half kg dumbbells after which my arms just gave up! 😟
@@rupinjeremiah9589 Hi Jeremiah, I have a selection of dumbbells but I usually halve the weights of Caroline (especially for the arms where I use a maximum of 5kg). I’m progressing on the legs (2/3 of Caroline’s weights) although I can never do the HIITs as fast as Caroline ! I found her 9 months ago and my body has already toned up so quickly !!! She’s really a level above ALL RUclips coaches. Happy workouts 👍🏻👌🏻
@@carolinee.n.2234 Thank you for your encouragement and guidance, Caroline! It really means a lot to me coming from such a strong person! 😊 I really want to be strong, with self esteem and confidence! I will work hard at this. I will try it again with half kg and see! When my mum lifts a 15 kg potatoes bag and puts it on the kitchen table with just one hand I feel so demotivated. I wish I can do that even with two hands.
This. Was. My. FAVORITE SERIES! I loved absolutely everything about it and really hope to see another like this soon.
I always felt like I got hard work done, yet in 30 instead of 45 minutes somehow. I feel my own cardio, so I loved having an extra strength day in there. I progressed big time in weight too. This was fantastic. Thank you!!
Hello Mrs Beagle! So happy you enjoyed this series too!! Putting in the work and finishing feeling proud after every workout… such an incredible feeling! And all of the benefits of building muscle and strength as we age are becoming even more evident through new research so we not only building muscle, having fun but also looking after our bodies off the future! Way to go! And thank you for joining me cx
I cried a little bit when I finished this series. I donno if it was the dogs at the end or realizing that I really did this whole 6 week program... But I did it with a newborn baby and with all of life's challenges. It proved to me that I really am strong and can finish anything no matter how hard.
Little short story: I just recently separated from the military to pursue my degree in physical therapy. I was constantly busy with school that I couldn't get to the gym. I decided to RUclips workouts from home and stumbled upon your iron series. I thought this could be easy. And, let me tell you. You whipped my bum into shape during the duration of the series. I enjoyed and saw and felt the difference. I appreciate this series and look forward to more in the future of this caliber.
Best trainer ever!!! So in love with the iron series!!!
Caroline I loved your genuine smile while you played with the puppy 🐶 ❤️!!!!
This series was phenomenal Caroline! I cannot believe the strength I feel, how much more I was able to increase the weight, and the additional muscle definition! Thank you is not even close to being enough to express my thanks, appreciation and gratitude for all that you do and continue to do. You truly are a blessing and I am so grateful. Big Hugs ❤
I am 48 years old and haven't lifted weights since high school. About 6 months ago, I decided to add strength training to my cardio and core workouts in order to better prepare for this whole menopause thing. About 6 weeks ago, a friend mentioned wanting to try this series. Although I was overwhelmed by it, I decide to try it, knowing I could modify exercises as needed. I finished today! I feel stronger all over--especially on my lower back, which needed it. I even lost a few pounds. Thank you for the challenge, and I look forward to going through it again...hopefully with fewer modifications and heavier weights!
62 years young here. First time doing the Iron Series. Loved it! Will be starting all over again. Thanks Caroline. Seeing your puppies there with you was an extra bonus!
OMG, seeing your sweet dogs at the end made the pain of the last 30 minutes so worth it! What a sweet surprise, better than balloons or confetti. Thank you so much Caroline for this incredible program, loved every minute of it. ❤
And the dogs match the IRON colour scheme so perfectly!
@@sonjagriffith5951 😂 you’re right, I hadn’t noticed that!
I agree! I love a beagle surprise!
Thank you Caroline for this awesome series! It’s so lovely to see Winston and Ralph congratulating you at the end! 🥰
And it’s not quite over for me even after I finish this; I’ve still got to go back and complete Days 8 to 18! 😎
Best ending ever! I got teary eyed. I officially feel a part of the family ♥️. Thank you Caroline for what you have provided to the world. A lovely safe and positive place.
Day 30 done! Today I used 8 and 10 lbs dumbbells. These were such a great workouts, I’m pretty happy started and finished it because I now I can see some progress in my body. My upper body for sure is stronger and I can see now some definition on my arms and shoulders. I’m going to do two series of one week each one during the next two weeks and then I’m going to start this serie again on January. I started this serie on October 3rd and finished it today December 3rd. It took me 2 extra weeks because I had to stop for two weeks for traveling reasons. 🎉 Thanks Caroline, I’m so grateful for this serie and your RUclips content. 😊
❤
March 7 2023. Day 30 done. Today I used 12 and 10 lbs dumbbells. I started it on January 5th and took me 2 months to finish it after some trips and extra resting days. My upper and lower body is looking stronger than ever. In the active day I added an upper body workout from the Fuel series. Tomorrow I’m going to start Epic III series and will add an upper body workout from Iron to the active day. Extremely happy after this Iron experience ❤
Absolutely LOVED this one -- what a way to finish the Iron series! My biceps, triceps, and abs were on FIRE! Super proud of us all for rocking another series, and always thankful for you, Caroline!
I almost cannot believe that this program is ending SOO soon😭 I just loved all the workouts Caroline! Your creativity and authenticity always shines in every single one of your programs! We girvanators are too lucky to be able to train with such an amazing trainer like you. I just wanna thank you again for saving me in my exam times as it is again become quite stressful these days..
Also please suggest a week of training post iron in a playlist form so that I would be able to train without much thinking as I'm giving my exams right now😌
Love this workout program! 6 weeks of epic muscle building has left me feeling relentless and dedicated to getting gainz like your comment about authenticity, Caroline is always spoiling us with her passion for fitness. I'm inspired 🙏🏾
Lovely comment, Manvi! Your words about Caroline are very kind and very true! Isn’t she such a brilliant trainer and such a kind and lovely person! I do hope everything goes well for you in your exams! I’m thinking of you! I’m just about to do the workout...then off to run the Bracknell Half Marathon! Have a lovely Sunday! Matthew
PLEASE make an Iron 2!! It’s my absolute favorite.
I completed my first series of Caroline workouts. I've been strength training for 4 years now. I have used numerous trainers but Caroline takes the cake. Thanks sweet lady for these wonderful workouts. Epic heat is next on my list. Never ever have I felt so challenged by a trainer as I do with Caroline. She has also motivated me to start taking walks . Nothing but ❤️ for all she does.
We've reached the end of six weeks. I would like to thank Girvan for all the effort to deliver such a beautiful work. Despite having only two 5kg dumbbells I focused on performing the exercise and managed to see a gain in lean mass mainly in the glutes and quadriceps. Ah, I also managed to do the bulgarian without support, I was very happy, because I have a flatfoot and my balance is less than most people. Thank you so much Girvan, you have made a difference in my life. 💕🏋️♀️💪🙏
Hi Cleia...what a lovely comment! You should feel so proud of all that you have achieved! I don’t think the actual weight matters so much...it’s how you use them that counts! Have a lovely day! Matthew
This was my favorite series yet! Loved everything about it, especially the doggies in the finale! Thank you so much Caroline!!
The perfect finale with the doggos !!!! ❤❤❤❤❤ thank you Caroline for changing my life 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
These workouts have been tough but worth it. I’ve sometimes supplemented with other exercises to make sure I hit every body part at least 2x a week. Every 2 weeks I took a week off and lifted heavy for that week to keep size. Caroline is great. This is real personal trainer style where you get nice and sore because the muscles are working hard, without necessarily using heavy weight. But it sure feels heavy enough when you’re doing it. Thank you so much for putting these on RUclips, Caroline. You’ve helped many thousands of people to get and stay fit.
Loved the finale! The dogs were a fantastic ending! Already waiting for more Iron Series!
I’m excited and sad that it’s the finale of the IRON series already 😭 definitely my favorite program from CG so far. Thank you , Caroline for all you do! Thank you! ❤️❤️❤️
A little late, but just finished this last workout and can officially say this is my most FAVOURITE workout program I’ve done, ever! Love that it’s low impact and have had some serious muscle gains. I just can’t do all the crazy jumping around anymore, so thank you for this! You rock!
So happy to have finished the 30 days. This was an amazing program and i can't wait to repeat it! I'm turning 65 this summer and I want to be in the best shape ever! I started the program with 3 and 5 pound weights. I've now added in 8 and 12 pounds. Feeling so much stronger and more fit. Thank you Caroline!
Good morning Girvantors ❤️. It's last Workout 😔. I did shoulder press with 12.5 kg achieved what I need in Iron series. Thanks Caroline . Your are Angel. Have great workout Girvantors ❤️
Guys look at the finisher we got surprise. Ralph and Winston 😍❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Hi Dhamodharan...lovely comment...you have done brilliantly with your weights...well done! And, yes...wasn’t it so lovely to see Ralph and Winston! Happy Sunday! Matthew
Good morning everyone! Let’s celebrate our progress today! Caroline thank you for this wonderful series and looking forward to seeing a new one soon!
Hi Kathleen...yes this was a good day to measure progress! Today I matched Caroline’s weights and was much happier doing dips! Definite progress...I was pleased! Hope you have a very happy day!
Ahhh the dogs at the end for me are everything!
Thanks for another amazing series!!!
Caroline Iron Series helped me a lot during the last 2 months physically and psychologically! Thank you for creating superb workout plans! I’m never leaving this channel now , won’t miss a single upload! I lost 4 kg and gained muscle at the same time! Best, Yannis from Greece 🇬🇷

Thank you Caroline, I will certainly be doing this series again. Let’s go everyone. Enjoy this last workout and a great Sunday
Just completed the Iron Series = Wow! This was a great challenge. I was able to progress each week and by Day 30 I am stronger, more toned, and feel great! Almost 50 yo and needed to take my workouts up a notch...I got what I asked for. So grateful for this program.
Also just finished! It took me a bit longer but it's great to know some of us are still trying out these programs. Thank you Caroline for your amazing work and generosity!
@@debbie6074 - AWESOME!!!! Yes.... It took me a little longer as well. Caught COVID during the process SMH....so I had to ease back in but I did it. WE did it!

I completed this series yesterday and I did all the optional add ons 🎉 I started back at day 1 today! I can't thank you enough Caroline for breathing new life into my fitness journey.

I've recommended your videos to all my friends. Thank you for putting so much work into your programs!

I loved this series! Just completed it today and will start it over on Monday. I am tracking the weights I used each day so I can try to increase it this next round. Thank you for making these home workouts available to us for free! Deal of a lifetime.
@samantha carter how are your tracking the weights you are using for each exercise each week
Omg I'm crying at seeing the doggiessss!!! I'm so so proud of myself for finishing - thank you SO MUCH Caroline!!! I'm completing this right after doing EPIC I so I'm now 16 whole weeks in without missing any days and I could never be happier at my progress, my body, my mental health. I feel resilient inside and out. I can do anything. Congrats everyone, we made it!!!
Day 30 and final day COMPLETE! Thank you God and Caroline 🙏🏾 I burst out crying when the ending came up on screen. I used 5, 8 and 10kg for these. I am so happy that I did this and followed through as well. Today is Christmas Eve and I'm looking forward to travelling to Manchester with my family to unite with my extended family for Christmas. Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas and a glorious New Year! May all your dreams and endeavours be actualized in the new year and always, much love ❤️ 💪🏾
Can’t believe how fast the time has flown! This series has been amazing! I’ve lifted heavier than ever before and have gained so much strength and confidence. I will definitely be repeating this series. Thank you, Caroline, so much for yet another brilliantly curated program!
This was such a great series! Your dogs are so precious! Thank you for sharing them with us. I’m glad they were part of the finale. 🐾
Thank you, Caroline! And thanks to my daughters for introducing you. Just finished this series and it was brilliant and challenging. I loved everything about it; structure, tips, music, time beeps, all of it! I needed something to get me back on track and this was it. My birthday gifts I give to myself are usually something physical and so, you were a happy 65th to me! Thank you truly!
This series has been my favorite so far! I feel like I gained so much strength during these 30 days, absolutely killing it in the gym after. I’ve never been able to do so much weight before, thank you so much Caroline !!!!!
Definitely seeing more defined muscles around my legs and arms! Love your workouts Caroline and my fave part of the finisher was seeing your puppies run up to you, I totally forgot about stretching😆💪🏼🐕🐾😍
Hi Caroline, I am a bit behind so looking forward to doing this in a few days! Just wanted to comment to say that this has been an amazing program and I appreciate all you do for us ❤️ have a wonderful day!
Morning Victoria...hope you have a very happy Sunday too! You have lots to look forward to in the last few workouts of iron series! You’re going to have such a brilliant time! Have a lovely Sunday! Matthew
@@matthewalmond8274 thanks Matthew! I'm particularly looking forward to the last full body as it looked awesome when I previewed it! How was your half marathon?
@@matthewalmond8274 yes the last week of iron was superb! Have a nice day ☀️
@@victoriag332 Hi Victoria...all went well...I'm really pleased with my time of about 1 h 45 min
The dogs are better than the confetti, my heart is pounding seeing them ❤️
My favorite series so far. This was my second time around and I increased weights. Caroline is the best!
Thank-you so much! I'm so proud of myself, I completed this and truly didn't think I could!
Two years ago I was so down on myself but instead of continuing to mope around, I decided to start working out. I started small and then found you a couple months ago. Thank-you, thank-you for your hard work and truly helping people feel good!
Well… loved this series so much that i am starting it again tomorrow morning 😃!!
Thank you Caroline and i hope to see you soon!!
Hi Manon...have fun with your repeat of iron series! Have a lovely day
Caroline, thank you so much for your workouts. We finished this series of workouts with my son, and we loved it so much that we are doing it again, but with heavier weights. Thank you!❤
Finished Iron today. First programme I have done in ‘real’ time, usually takes me longer because of running and other cross training. Loved the 30 minute, and simple, workouts. Easy to fit in with busy work and family life. Thank you so much Caroline for this and all your amazing programmes ❤💪🏼👏🏾👏🏼👏 ‘Let’s go…’ find another great series… it’s Beast Mode for me next 😊
Hooray! The Iron series flew by so quickly! I enjoyed every workout of the series, especially loved the time protocol-60 sec work, 30 sec rest mostly, very comfortable and allows focusing on the movements and brings muscles to exhaustion! Definitely going to repeat the series in the future, with heavier weights (as soon as I have them in my possession)! I'm even glad that I had limited weights because it made me focus on good form rather than on bigger weights, so it'll be more high quality movements next time I do these workouts. And yes, I do love Bulgarian lunges, hip thrusts and basically all those movements that I used to avoid earlier! Thanks to you, Caroline! I guess, practice makes us fall in love with things)
Thank you for providing us with such high-quality workouts!
And... I finished the Iron Series for the second time! (with bigger weights this time) It remains my favourite programme on Caroline's channel. Thank you again for this perfectly structured and unbelievably gainful series!
Thank you CG for the Iron series. I love this workout and I will definitely do it again. God bless you🙏
A few months back when I bought a set of adjustable dumbbells, I set a goal of being able to use the heaviest 10kg/22lb weights in my workouts. Toward the end of this series, I finally started using them! It took a bit longer to get here than I wanted and I'm not yet as comfortable with this weight as I'd like to be, but working on this. Considering that I spent much of the past year leaving behind a decade-long eating disorder after things reached a crisis point, the changes in my body and mindset have been amazing, and I'm so happy I found these workouts at the right time.
We Made it everyone!!! Thank you so much Caroline! You changed my body 💕
This workout was wonderful! Did it with my husband and we both had so much fun with it, though it slayed us. Thank you so much for the entire series Caroline, I can lift more than I used to or even imagined I could. It was a pleasure to be trained by you for the past six weeks and I can't wait for what else lies in store! The 30 minutes format is simply perfect for me and I hope to see more workouts like this in future, but of course anything you do is great. Thanks once again! X
Absolutely love it , I'm starting again from beginning. Day 30 is a bonus with your doggies celebrating with everyone completing IRON SERIES . THANK YOU CAROLINE YOU'RE THE BEST 🎉🎉🎉🎉
Just came here to say I finished the program! 🎉 Every single minute! I enjoyed it and enjoyed seeing my strength and body change over the weeks! Thank you Caroline ❤ for everything that you do! Now on to another program! I’m thinking Fuel Series! Let’s go!!
As I've now completed my second time through I can confidently say that this is my favorite series of online workouts of all time. I'll be starting round 3 soon!
Thank you so much for everything you do - this has literally changed my body, my mind, my life. ❤
Can't wait until Iron 2 is available on desktop! 💪

What a reward to see your pups at the end! That's enough motivation to go around again! Thanks Caroline!
I loved this series! My favorite so far!! I have been working out with Caroline since 2020 and I'm so grateful to have found her and this supportive community. Great job everyone!! Thank you Caroline :)

Third time through! The" Puppy Payoff" at the end made my day! I've seen such enormous improvements with your program. Thank you so much!❤️
Just finished this series and I couldn't help but get emotional especially when your dogs came out, this series helped me get to the strongest I've ever been and I will be repeating this series and adding more weight. Thank you so much Caroline
Congrats to all who have finished and accomplished this amazing series.❤️ The finale was Incredible we went out with a bang.💪 I am sorry this is the last session, I will totally miss it. In this series I definitely had to get heavier weights. It was rewarding. Thank you Caroline for bringing us these fabulous creative workouts that we love and enjoy so much. You are the best!💞 It was nice to see Winston and Ralph, they are adorable.🐕🦺
Hi Jeanette...what a lovely comment! Well said!
Thank you Caroline. Going to do this tomorrow but here are the progress / results so far :

- Commited to doing 1 hr / session
- Improved endurance
- Increased weights used
- Improved form
- Able to “feel” more when performing the movements
- Less reluctance to exercises that are not my favourite
- Had fun & found a commumity here! 😊
Hi Renee, I'm so happy you are progressing and having fun at the same time! Keep up the great work and hopefully I will see you again soon in another series 😍
@@yasminealhalaby7118 Hi Yasmine, thank you as always for your kind words! 😍 Not gonna lie, sometimes the comments and tips I get here are what keep me going for the last reps 👊🏼
Yes definitely see you again in the next series! 😊 Until then I will keep myself busy with Tempo and Pyramid series 🔥
completed the iron series today. I am so proud, and I feel so strong. when I first started this, in 7 days, I saw results immediately (I promise y'all that I am telling the truth). thank you so much, Caroline, for this wonderful series🤩💝!!
Just finished Iron today and cried a few happy tears!! I was in the military before I had children and I developed a negative association with exercising. I HAD to force it and it often wasn’t enjoyable. Nearly a decade and 3 kiddos later, with multiple failed attempts at other programs, I can officially say I LOVE exercise again and feel healthy + strong. I’m going to repeat again!!
Caroline, you rock my world!! I recommend your programs to everyone ❤🎉
Iron series was one of my favorites! Loved the slow controlled moves. Thanks again, Caroline!! 💕🙌💪
Thanks so much for the Iron series!! ❤️ I loved everything about it. Perfect 30 min and still feel so strong after these 6 weeks. 👏👏👏
This is the first workout program I’ve ever completed. I’ve learn so much throughout this journey. I can’t thank you enough Caroline! I will be challenging myself to complete your other programs!! Let’s go fam! 🎉🎉
Maybe I finished this series in 9 weeks instead of 6 I absolutely enjoyed every time I followed you, and I'm truly grateful for your guidance and program. wonderful to see your fur babies in the end 🤩take care
Done! Thank you so much Caroline this is just what I needed I get up before my children and can get my workout done and my mind and body ready for the day! Thank you soo much for Iron I LOVED it!
I loved it. I've started it and in the middle needs to stop for family health reasons. However the lasts 2 week I've been constant. Now I want to go back and do it all again.
Thank you for you efforts and amazing work out. Xx from Portugal
OMG - Winston and Frank were the best finale surprise yet! Thanks for another great series, Caroline!
