Day 7 in the EPIC Program and it-s leg day! We will be hitting our entire lower body and core with this leg workout with dumbbells via lunges, squats and everything in between! The dumbbells I am using for your reference are 10 kg each. Every rest period throughout is 20 seconds. We will be performing a certain exercise such as sumo squat for 20 seconds, straight into the pulse of that movement, then straight into full range again! Then following each 1 minute containing the full range and pulse is going to be lunges on each side with same time. 20 seconds full range but hold then full range! We perform on each leg! Then rest for 20 seances before moving into the next exercise which will be followed by lunge sequence again! This is a lot of time under tension on the quads, hamstrings, glutes, core and grip! We then finish with a drop set of close stance squats going from 2 x dumbbells to 1 x dumbbells to bodyweight only with no rest. 20 seconds of work for each! Below are the exercises that we will have a lot of fun with! SUMO SQUAT PULSES SUMO SQUATS LUNGE HOLD LUNGE LUNGE HOLD LUNGE CURTSEY LUNGE PULSES (same side) CURTSEY LUNGE (Same side) LUNGE HOLD LUNGE LUNGE HOLD LUNGE CURTSEY LUNGE (switch side) PULSES (same side) CURTSEY LUNGE (same side) LUNGE HOLD LUNGE LUNGE HOLD LUNGE FWD & BK LUNGE HOLD (same side) FWD & BK LUNGE (same side) LUNGE HOLD LUNGE LUNGE HOLD LUNGE FWD & BK LUNGE (switch side) HOLD (same side) FWD & BK LUNGE (same side) LUNGE HOLD LUNGE LUNGE HOLD LUNGE PLI- SQUAT PULSES PLI- SQUAT LUNGE HOLD LUNGE LUNGE HOLD LUNGE STAGGER ROMANIAN DEADLIFT STAGGER ROMANIAN DEADLIFT (opp leg) ROMANIAN DEADLIFT LUNGE HOLD LUNGE LUNGE HOLD LUNGE CLOSE SQUAT HALF RANGE SQUAT CLOSE SQUAT LUNGE HOLD LUNGE LUNGE HOLD LUNGE HAMSTRING UP & DOWN HAMSTRING HOLD HAMSTRING UP & DOWN LUNGE HOLD LUNGE LUNGE HOLD LUNGE BRIDGE BRIDGE HOLD BRIDGE Finisher: CLOSE SQUAT DROP SET! 2 x dumbbells 1 x dumbbells 1 x bodyweight Please ensure you warm up for at least 5 minutes prior to beginning.

just finished this workout and I'm so glad that I took a minute to read the comments before
i went and did the thing. this one was harder both physically and mentally because of the repetition BUT i was ready for it thanks to all of the comments.
also glad to say that i managed to finish while still breathing without stopping or skipping AND I think i even managed to not get confused with which leg i worked on; )

At around 75% the dizziness kicked in and I felt like passing out. Took 5, drank water and then carried on with the lying exercises. I tried the lunges every time but could only do 1 or 2. I pulled through the squats though. Nevertheless I-m proud I just carried on with the capacities I had left. I think even if someone needs to quit from dizziness it-s a clear sign from your body that you gave your all.

Wow! I started with E1, 2 then EG then decided to start over with E1. What a huge difference. I love the basics of E1. Now after completing 3 programs I-m stronger and almost if not keep up with you. Not with the same weight but with what I can physically do. Thank you C. One day I-ll visit the Iron Series. Just not yet. XO

i've returned to complete epic 1 since i never did this program. and even though i have been working out with Caroline for over a year now, this workout rocked me legs! and my arms are sore from yesterday. I loved this staple. it sure was intimidating but it accomplished so much!

pro tip: do not read the comments before starting the workout! trust me, you can do it! just use the weights that are comfortable but challenging for you, go at your own pace, and take breaks when you need it. remember what caroline says: -it's only as hard as you push it-: )

Started this with a massive headache and finished sick to my stomach but glad I didn't stop. I mean, I didn't do all of the lunges, but I got through all that I could. I haven't felt this challenged (or sick) when working out in years. Thank you!

Used 8kg each for this one today (trying to rest a very tired over used leg. The lunges got a bit repetitive through out the work out. Can't say this was one of my favourites but I got it done even if it wasn't my best effort today.

I started with 20lb weights then down to 15s and the last round I went to 10s as I was a bit lightheaded. Halfway through I just did bodyweight holds. This was a really tough one, especially if you are not a lower body person. -

If there is more workouts like this that make me scream, use profanity, and sweat like a pastor at a strip club, then sign me up for more. I've never enjoyed being beat down so much lol. Thank you so much

I don't know what I feel so faithful about these workouts. I haven't been able to stick to a program for more than one week but here I am heading week 2. Excited for tomorrow's workout
