  • Опубликовано: 4 окт 2024
  • Packed with compound movements to involve the entire lower body but with the emphasis towards the quads!
    During Bulgarian lunges, squats, and lunges, try to stay as upright as possible, and resist the urge to tilt forward the more you fatigue during the iso squat!
    The timer will be on for 45 seconds of work with 15 seconds rest in-between each set!
    We have 9 exercises within the circuit, and we simply perform the circuit 3 times!
    We have 45 seconds rest in-between each circuit!
    All you will need for this workout is a pair of dumbbells, your mat, a bench / sturdy chair for Bulgarian lunges and a yoga block / wedge/ small step to perform heel elevated squats!
    The dumbbells I am using throughout are 2 x 15kg each! You can absolutely use a variety here, even heavier on lunges if you prefer and/or lighter during heel elevated squats for example!
    HEEL ELEVATED SQUATS
    STATIC LUNGE
    SWITCH SIDE!
    BODYWEIGHT HEEL ELEVATE PARTIALS
    BODYWEIGHT BULGARIAN LUNGES
    SWITCH SIDE!
    LOW SQUAT WALK
    PLANK TO SQUAT
    HAND TO FLOOR SQUAT… THEN HOLD!
    FINISHER!
    30/30/30/30
    HEEL ELEVATED SQUAT
    ALTERNATING FORWARD STEP LUNGE
    HEEL ELEVATED SQUAT
    ALTERNATING FORWARD STEP LUNGE
    This finisher is a lovely wee way to finish the quads for the day! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
    Please join me for a cool down after or you can absolutely spend that bit longer gently stretching the hip flexors & quadriceps and cooling down.
    I love playing with the angles and stance of movements to focus more on a certain muscle(s) and today it hit those thighs!
    Have a great session everyone!
    Week 2 let’s go!!!

    Fuel was the first workout program I did with Caroline just about a year and a half ago. I remember thinking this woman is nuts if she thinks I'm going to be able to that! I actually vividly remember doing this workout the first time and saying "I'm not going to make it." Today, I completed this with so much more success because I've been training with Caroline for the last 18 months. Keep going!

    It’s leg day and circuits...a combination that I’m sure many of us really enjoy! It’s certainly going to burn and my experience tells me to beware of the bodyweight moves at the end of the circuit! I expect these to be tough!! Happy Monday everyone and have fun...we all know that with circuits the time will fly by! Matthew
    All finished...and this was just brilliant! The time just flew by...and I really enjoyed the bodyweight moves...what a burn! The finisher was superb...that last set of lunges was so hard! Brilliant abs add on too...I love doing non stop abs! I’m sure you’ll all love doing this one! Happy Monday! Matthew

    • @tanjagoltnik2929
      @tanjagoltnik2929 2 года назад +6

      Morning, Matthew. We don't often do quad specific session, but when we do it is intense! Hands down, my favourite quad workout so far- I loved the exercises and that it was mostly bodyweight. People often like to complain that they can't workout because they don't have either time or access to the gym. I think that Caroline's workouts are testimony that you don't have to workout for hours to get results and that for the most part your own body is the best machine.
      I knew it is going to be hard when we have only complited one round of the circuit and my legs were toasted. I love the pre-exhaustion method with weights. But I was not fooled that bodyweight moves would be any easier. Squat walk was a burner and that cheeky isometric 30 sec hold really made it for me.
      12/10 session for me! 4*4 abs burned but it was enjoyable.
      Have a wonderful day!

    This workout was fire! A few things I've noticed since I started doing Caroline's workouts last summer - I'm getting well practiced at pushing through my mental barriers and asking my body to preform when I feel like I can't do another rep. I recently went on a climbing trip and noticed that I'm much braver and willing to try hard than I used to be. There are many factors, but I think these workouts are a big one. My body is strengthening but so is my mind. Also, when I get up in the morning to do Caroline's workouts, doing PT exercises on my shoulder after the workout is done feels like nothing compared to what I've just done. I've been doing Caroline's workouts and, therefore, PT regularly and my shoulder is improving. Yay!

    Caroline Girvan never disappoints. This was fast. The body weight moves were a burner! 💥🦵🦵. I just loved it. I used 2x15kg Dumbbells. And so I decided now that my goal is to burn fat while defining muscles, I added Caroline´s 20 MIN Demanding HIIT workout. And NO I won't be adding a HIIT session everyday, most of the time I add a cardio-based workout.

    If you are looking at the comments before you do this workout wondering how hard it is going to be, I will just say this: you're not going to scream or cry during this workout. The burn is so intense you won't have the energy to do anything but bite your knuckles and pray. The only thing getting me through the last 3 intervals of the circuit was knowing how amazing I would feel after. Oh, and enjoy the first 3 intervals of the circuit with your weights because they are a relief in comparison to the bodyweight intervals. Am currently spending some quality time with my foam roller in hopes I will be able to walk tomorrow. 🤪
