Thank you so much! Your workout made me feel that even if I am a beginner It’s something I can incorporate weekly!❤
This was great!! I’ve never done a HIIT workout before and I really enjoyed it, thank you for all your wonderful videos💜
Thank you ladies! I’ve been using one of your workouts almost every day since May 1st! I do give myself a rest day most weeks. I have created a playlist to quickly refer to each day. I alternate cardio/weights days with just cardio days. Today, I completed this new workout twice and obtained over 4100 steps! Woohoo! I’m feeling so much stronger and flexible due to your guidance. I turn 68 next week and my daily chores are getting much easier with the strength training. So, again, thank you so much for all this FREE valuable content you provide us!
So glad to getting back to doing this with you two! Have been slacking for a while but you two have me motivated again! Thanks
