  • Опубликовано: 6 сен 2024
  • The arms and chest are targeted in Day 18 of the EPIC Program! Full of super sets throughout and finishing with bodyweight push ups, this workout is definitely going to push up triceps to a new level.
    The shoulders and core involved also alongside this chest and tricep workout.
    You will need a mat and a pair of dumbbells. I am using 2 pairs (15kg and 8kg pairs) however you can use 1 pair and simply perform more reps etc!
    The timer will be on for 45 seconds of work, followed immediately by another 45 seconds of work followed by 30 seconds rest.
    We complete each of the main super sets for 3 sets.
    Ensure to stop when you feel your form is being affected.
    During the flyes, ensure a slight bend at elbows throughout.
    With the skull crushers, ensure you are aware of position of upper part of arm that it remains as steady as possible (perpendicular to body) whilst lowering and rising of dumbbells.
    During the tricep press, try to keep those elbows in by sides throughout.

    So, Caroline, I said to myself “Barbara, if you’re going to do this then you’re going to fit these sessions in any way you can!” - and I have. Some have been broken into a few portions due to caring for a loved one, some have shifted days due to travelling, but ALWAYS, I find/make the time to follow along, and each day has me feeling such a great sense of accomplishment and encouragement. I cannot express how much this means to me, you are a constant in my days now. I still have problems doing full pushups, practicing them in the rest of my days. I was left quaking from this. I am amazed and astonished - never dreamed I could do this! . Many MANY thanks from the bottom of my heart (and the top off of my ‘skull crusher’ head! I hope your days are buoyed knowing that YOU MADE A DIFFERENCE in people’s lives through your kindness.

I originally bought those for legs but using them for arms now feels awesome. On the 1.15 reps tricep presses, I kept shaking and couldn't identify the source. It was my chest! I didn't feel much engagement there but it was definitely working. Haven't missed a day since I started and I am already so impressed with my improvement in strength and physique. This is a program that stands the test of time for sure. Onward and upward!

    today was SO hard after yesterday. -18 Celsius outside, 1ft of snow but I'm still in the garage working out at 5am before class. I had to wear two sets of pants, two jerseys, a snow coat and a hat over my workout gear! Honestly I'm very proud of myself for getting this far. I religiously followed 5 of chloe ting's programs and found progress but I HATED focusing on how I looked, and I hated that style of workout. Just not for me. Then I found your channel, and thank god I did because your workouts are *amazing* I used to be unable to bring myself to finish 15 minutes, now I easily do an hour. I'm stronger, happier and proud.
    even on hard days like today, I remind myself tough people are never made from easy situations. I have a muscle problem, but you know what? my muscles still work. That's still a gift.
    within 18 days of your program I've gone from struggling with 5 pound weights to using 15-25.

    Wow! 😳 Just wow! 😵 This was one killer workout! My muscles were vibrating 1/4 the way in! 😂 And forget those pushups at the end! Lol! JK, I did get a couple reps out at a time! Although, I did have issues with my palms from the weight on them constantly - I used a massage ball during the breaks! 😂 Great session Caroline! We smashed it together! See you all Friday! 👊🏻

    That was so hard. I used a bench to get more range of motion and found I couldn’t maintain my 10 kgs and had to drop down to 8kg. As it progressed I got lighter and lighter until I finished on 3kgs and my chest and biceps were shaking and I was struggling push out 6 reps. The bench will be a staple in future , at least I don’t need to buy more weights😅. This is a great progression workout, thank you again.

    Day 18 ✔️ completed. Tough one!!!! But I like it tough YEAHHH and I love the music!! I use quite lighter weights due I am still waiting to receive an order. But it is still a killer doing more reps I can tell you that. And doing more reps with lighter weight with proper form, I can tell you, it burns!! Just in case someone is reading this and having doubts about the dumbbell weights. Not sure what you have in mind after this 10 weeks challenge. (some holiday for you maybe ??I mean you so much deserve it. ) I am looking forward to receive heavier weights and advance. But so happy to learn the proper form techniques, as I will need it to lift heavier. So I repeat : A million thanks Caroline! ❣️💓💪🏼

    Hi Caroline, I do your tricep 20mins workout everyday with 3kg×2 and 5 kg×2 dumbbells. I must say, I am improving day by day. My loose fat converted to strong arms. You are the only one who uploaded 20 mins video on tricep and now this one. Thanks a lot.
    To make this more intense i will use more heavy dumbbells (10kg) for single dumbbell exercises. You have covered standing tricep workout also in this epic video. I love this video. I am going to do this at 3pm.
    Yesterday lunges workout was awesome. I enjoyed pain. Pain is gain.

    I respected an odd pain I had yesterday and moved my workout to today - glad I did. I still can only do one or two FULL pushups, but I unflaggingly try. I know its a building thing, like a marathon. And I remember thinking at the end of my first marathon that it was as much the journey as finally reaching the goal. That we should do it out of enthusiasm and motivation rather than that feeling like “oh NO, I don’t want to do this” - to respect oneself and enjoy the trek there... we get in such a hurry sometimes we lose the gift it all is. Its all about balance but pushing yourself that little bit harder - because you WANT to. This was a wonderful workout, the think I’m enjoying about this second pass (till I get back to 33 and beyond) is that I am more familiar with the moves and what my body is capable of and even learned to Center on doing moves correctly which I had not the first time, in my eagerness. Thank you, Caroline!

    What a fantastic session ! My hands were sore from holding the dumbbells for all the chest press variations 😅. You weren’t kidding at the beginning when you said the push ups would be hard after this... I couldn’t do a single tricep push up, and only a few diamond ones on my knees, and had to revert back to the cobra push ups instead of the skull crusher ones (you’re such a superwoman for mastering those!! They have me like: « but... HOW 😮😱 »). I know we all say this all the time, but thanks a million Caroline for this amazing challenge, it is really unlike anything you can find on RUclips, definitely unique for a whole bunch of reasons ❤️. Day 18 DONE! 💪🏻
