DAY 1 of Beginner EPIC | No Equipment Lower Body Workout

Спорт

Here we go! Day 1 in the EPIC Beginners Series for those of you wanting to progress to the full EPIC Program! We are starting with a full lower body workout lasting 30 minutes.
PLEASE NOTE: This is a series of workouts aimed as an introduction to the Epic Programs.
If you are a complete beginner to resistance training and have access to dumbbells at home or the gym, you might like to consider the Ultimate Beginner Program, which is a 6 week series where I talk throughout the workout to help provide cues and guide you with main considerations to then allow you to explore variations that feel best for you, your biomechanics and preference! For details on this series you can visit www.cgxapp.com. I would recommend to trail the app for 2 weeks to make sure if is a good fit for you!
This is a no-equipment workout however, you will need a wall, a sturdy chair and a mat.
Squats, lunges, holds, and of course wall sits in there too make this an EPIC beginner leg workout! This is a fantastic workout to gut your hamstrings, quads, glutes and core with just your bodyweight as resistance!
Remember to work at your own pace! You can go slower, you can even go faster if you feel like it.. just maintain form and alignment!
Please ensure you warm up for at least 5 minutes prior to beginning. (See link below for my new warm up routine)
I’m sure you will challenge yourself and feel the intensity as much as I did!!
Let’s smash it!!

    Wow. I consider myself quite fit. I've been doing two people's routines on KZread regularly. I've just had a month off and started this as I thought it would be easy. I was 10 minutes in and got up to collapse on the floor my legs spasming and cramping , I feel sick too. Unbelievable. I always thought half an hour wasn't long enough how wrong was I. Great workout thank you

    Yeah but also know that it is not always worth it to push through something that seems too hard. It may result in an extreme multi day soreness that will keep you from exercising at least half a week. And that will ultimately impede your fitness goals, because consistency is key. Sometimes it's better to leave it at 70% effort but still be able to exercise the next day.

Because of quarantine I'm all cooped up at home and I honestly feel the need to exercise and move around, so I look online for workout videos but most of them are really triggering. But I've found that Caroline's videos do a lot to help me get some activity into my day without triggering me because (a) her energy is so positive and (b) the people in the comments are also so positive. just wanted to say there's a fellow recovering from ED that exists >. Keep it up and take good care of yourself

I'm doubting its level is beginner😅 From the first few minutes, I couldn't feel my legs anymore. I couldn't perform all the moves because I'm not physically prepared at all, but I went as far as I could. The enjoyable pain has embraced my entire lower body, and I love this pain.

At 10 minutes, my legs were shaking like jelly. I was very surprised, but I still did all the exercises. Really slowly, very slowly. I've mastered the whole workout. At the end, I wanted to cry my eyes out. Legs now refuse to walk at all. I'm like a squeezed lemon. But it was worth it. Thank you so much for sharing this for free. I can feel the fat melting inside me. Thanks. I will cry my eyes out, but I will finish all the training. And I think that I will be engaged in a program for beginners for a month, and maybe more. When I feel ready, I'll start epic. Thank you so much again❤️❤️❤p.s. Please create training sessions for beginners of level - 1000. Thank you 🙏

    I'm 66 and started back to the gym 3x a week a month ago. I also walk 350 stairs and fast walk for 45 minutes on those days. Thought I'd do Caroline's workouts on my 'off' days. Other than taking a couple longer breaks, I finished it! It's a killer workout!

    I started this series today and I’ve been a person who has been always into some or the other Exercise/Fitness regime may it be playing Basketball or just running. Last 2 years have been tough on me and I’ve tried many workouts and failed miserably and gained weight excessively. I’ve started therapy 2 months back and I’m exercising after 5 whole months. It’s been tough to get my life around and fight my inner critical voice but I did it. I pushed through your workout :) Just want to let you know that if you are reading this Caroline, you’re making a difference. I hope I adhere to this and finish all the workouts. Can’t wait to test my myself :)

    So I’m 50 I’ve been working out since I was 20. And I am so pleased at how challenging this was. Definitely incorporating this in my workout routine. Those single legs sit downs........yeah couldn’t do it. Have much work to do in my quads. Thanks!!!!!

    Good leg burn! Those lunge holds and hamstring marches are killers. I usually prefer having some coaching through the exercises to cue form and what muscles are being activated, but it's great the name of each exercise is listed so that it can be researched for that info. I love that her vibe is positive and motivating without being hyper and "extra". I'm excited to try more from the channel. Thanks, Caroline!

    Just wow! Can I just thank you for giving me the boost I needed to start this journey! I finished the video taking a few stops in between as my 2.5 was “helping” following along with me. Was so cute watching him attempt the moves as I did them and then watching you on my laptop. I am so sore and everything feels like Jell-o but I am so eager to be in the best shape of my life!!

    I decided to start doing daily workouts (starting today) and I found this one. I'm sad to admit I had to take a break and pause the video half way through but I did finish it! Coming back for more tomorrow! Thanks so much Caroline! 💜

    I had a pause of about a year from regular exercise besides running and my sister recommended this channel to restart. I must admit I am proud of myself that I made it through all the way without stopping, even with Bulgarian lounges. The sumo mini sqats were difficult though at the end. Looking forward to day 2 😃

    This is excellent! 5 mins in and already felt burning in my thighs (and I work out regularly). This is definitely a real deal. Love it! And thank you, Caroline! So happy I've found you!

    You're probably the only creator whose workouts I can't finish all of the time, they're so deceptively difficult 😅 and I'm no athlete but I'm pretty active. this kicked my butt so hard I sat down at one point and knew I wouldn't be continuing lol. Next time! Thanks for always giving us something challenging Caroline!

    decided to start this today. it went well, had to use a chair to help with balance and weakness in lunges, but feel great for the effort, just promised myself to do this program. 30 min everyday is not difficult, and i modify as needed. WOW. THIS IS SUPERB.

    I'm fresh out of the shower having just completed the whole of the EPIC Beginner program. Here are some of my thoughts: DAY 1 - Lower Body - I found that I'm very unstable during lunges. I only managed to do half of this whole workout too. Was wondering what I got myself into. Everyone loves leg day! DAY 2 - Upper Body - don't remember having too many issues with this one. DAY 3 - AB & Core - I seem to have shortened hamstrings. I can't straighten my legs when doing toe reaches or v-sits. This has always been a problem for me but I'm hopìng more stretching will help. DAY 4 - Dumbbell Full Body - I used 2 x 5kg dumbbells and managed to keep up so will up this to 10kg in future. Still a good workout though. DAY 5 - Full Body HIIT - burpees. Oh, how I love you. Managed to do 3 per 20 seconds by the end. The lunges were what I struggled with the most. Losing balance a lot. I'm hoping that balance will come with practice. I started this program because I wanted to see if I could commit to a regular workout schedule which would be the case if I had a gym membership. It's only been one week, of course, but I got into the routine of doing the workout in the morning before jumping in the shower and going about my day. I planned my rest days to be Thursday and Sunday this week and I'll probably stick to that going forward. I'm intending to redo this program at least once more to improve my technique in the various exercises and if I can manage another week of sticking to it regularly then I'll move on to EPIC I. Loved it.

    @@em.fuglsang, yes I'm on week 4 of EPIC 1. Finding it a good workout and enjoying it a lot. I did raise a question last week but no one has replied yet. There was a need for a glute band for one of the days but I don't want to buy a band if it was just a one off. I'm waiting to hear if there are more days that require this band. Are you in the midst of the Beginner workouts? How are you finding it?
