Thank you Cas. I’ve watched day 1, written out the exercises and will do at the gym tomorrow.

Great - looking forward to day 2 tomorrow, upper body. Won’t have time to go to gym + breakfast before work, so using housemate’s weights at home.

One of my regular gym circuit classes incorporates quite a few of Caroline’s moves, so on that day, the circuit will be my workout.

Nice one Red Squirrel, glad you enjoyed it, and the gym class sounds like it fits in really well.

I did day 12 yesterday after work, quite enjoy the upper body ones mainly because I get to lie on a mat for most of them! I need to look at my technique/hand position on some of the presses, though, as it felt like the same muscles doing a lot of the work even though the target was different, if that makes sense.

Had mega jelly arms afterwards so I'm waiting for the DOMS to arrive :-)

Aldi must have known that i was at the end of my cutback week. 5kg dumbbells for sale. So I now have 1, 1.5, 2.5, 4 and 5.

Did parkrun this morning and intending to do iron day 10 either later today or tomorrow.

About This Thread

Maintained by Sharkie
Caroline Girvan - tiny but tough, sweet but strong.

Here's a thread rather in the manner of the Shred craze that swept Fetchland some years ago, or perhaps more recently (and less bossily) Adriene's 30 Days of Yoga each year. I found Caroline Girvan via geordiegirl (ta, GG!) and am well impressed with her workouts. I'm currently on Day 27 of her 30 day Iron Series and have STUCK TO IT. Wonders will never cease, I was beginning to despair of the likelihood of me getting any sort...
