It-s leg day and we are focusing on the quads and calves! Oh yessss! The timer will be on for 50 seconds of work, straight into another 50 seconds of work before we have 20 seconds rest! If a superset begins on one side such as a singe leg exercise, the next exercise within that same superset will still be on same side! It will be a variation to the first exercise such as dropping to one dumbbell or pulses etc! For this shaking leg session, you will need a pair of dumbbells, your mat, a chair for Bulgarian lunges, and a yoga block or thick book for heel elevated squats! The dumbbells I am using for your reference are 15kg each. HEEL ELEVATED SQUATS x2 DUMBBELLS BODYWEIGHT 1 1/2 REPS! HEEL ELEVATED SQUATS x2 DUMBBELLS BODYWEIGHT 1 1/2 REPS! STATIC LUNGE x2 DUMBBELLS BODYWEIGHT FWD LUNGE (same side) STATIC LUNGE x2 DUMBBELLS (switch) BODYWEIGHT FWD LUNGE (same side) HEEL ELEVATED SQUATS x1 DUMBBELL BODYWEIGHT 1/2 REPS! HEEL ELEVATED SQUATS x1 DUMBBELL BODYWEIGHT 1/2 REPS! CALVE RAISES PULSES! CALVE RAISES PULSES! WALL SIT w/ CALVE RAISE HOLD CALF RAISE! WALL SIT w/ CALVE RAISE HOLD CALF RAISE! STAGGERED SQUAT TO SQUAT STAGGERED SQUAT (dumbbell same side) STAGGERED SQUAT TO SQUAT (switch) STAGGERED SQUAT (dumbbell same side) PAUSED ELEVATED SQUAT PAUSED 1/2 REP BODYWEIGHT!

My favourite quad burnout at the end! It is possible to do this workout bodyweight only and feel the intensity! But we will add those dumbbells and work through 40 minutes of fun! Ready for quivering quads? My legs are visibly shaking during parts of this workout- see if you can spot it! - Let-s go!

I was a swimmer growing up and I definitely lifted weights occasionally in my life but I was mostly swimming for workouts until I was 18, Im 22 now and decided not to go to college for swim so I gained some weight. Im almost to my goal and found Caroline as Im transitioning out of all the cardio I was doing (to lose the weight) and wanted to move into building muscle at home before jumping into the gym. I wanted to get my body in that zone and gradually make my way there instead of going full throttle and crashing and burning like Ive done in the past. Now on #11 Im feeling so good! I can't wait until 10 weeks are up and I can go into the gym with exercises on hand and muscle memory from Caroline.
ALSO, from being a swimmer I got to say MY KNEES FREAKING HURT! I miss being buoyant: ( LOL

This was so hard. In the end I cried and I was shouting -who the hell can do this- -. I dropped all the weights by the second set of wall sits and I still collapsed. The bulgarian lunges in the end killed me. I pushed through but this was one of the hardest leg workouts of all times. I also started to swap staggered squats for deadlifts, since me knees always feel funny while doing them and I don't think it's a good sign.

Killer workout as usual. I'm wondering if anyone has any information on the effects of using Tabatha for unilateral movements, does it create muscle imbalances over time? For example If Im going by the timer and end up doing 10 lunges on one side but 12 on another? I will do my own research but figured I'd try to get some incite from someone who's also doing/finished or had a hand in creating this program. Thanks

I FINISHED DAY 11, oh my god was this tough especially after 2 hours of walking shopping earlier and adding the fact that i walk around for 3 hours daily due to school and 20 mintues home and back not adding the staircases i go through daily and the mta stairs man was this tough

Amazing exercises! Thank you so much Caroline. I love this Epic III. I did Epic I and II, but Epic III is by far my favorite. I should say I'm past my fifties and now I can exercise without having back pain. I'm so grateful to you for keeping me in shape.

You don't know how I've enjoyed this training today, I've faced some obstacles to be disciplined with the epic III, travel, flu, hard days. but I persist. Thank you, thank you, your work makes my mornings easier.

Can't wait to do this one monday! Btw, I absolutely love all her work out outfit and especially this blue one. -caroline girvan, will you please link where all your outfit come from? Thank you--
reply

I was shivering because of the thought of 'quivering quads' and rightly so, oh my quads, Caroline I felt every bit of that. I really don't know how you come up with it all. You are Amazing!
reply

You weren't joking when you said quivering. Those wall sits had my legs bouncing completely out of control! Held it through though. Killer workout!
reply

Loving every single epic program. Thank you Caroline! I have just one question, shall we take only 1 day of rest or are we allowed 2? Thanks again!
