This is lower body circuits! Those quads, hamstrings and glutes are all tested today! It might be only 20 minutes but we are using compound movements and a combination of dumbbells & bodyweight with the emphasis on NO MOMENTUM! There is a time for momentum absolutely and I incorporate it into many workouts in different ways but most resistance training we aim to minimise any assistance to lift! This workout as you will see if a perfect quick workout to really hit those legs! Even though it is a quick workout, only 20 minutes, that doesn-t mean we need to perform fast reps! We will get a lot out of each rep the slower we go as you will feel! All you will need for this workout is a pair of dumbbells! I also use a yoga block to elevate the feet however this is optional! The dumbbells I am using for your reference are 10kg each throughout! The timer will be on for 45 seconds of work followed by 15 seconds rest before moving to the next exercise in the circuit! We simply perform the circuit for 3 rounds in total! ELEVATED SQUAT RDL STATIC LUNGE (one side) SWITCH SIDE! 1/2 REP HEEL ELEVATED SQUATS (bodyweight) 1/2 REP RDLS FINISHER! LUNGE TO SQUAT X1 DUMBBELL BODYWEIGHT ONLY SAME SIDE! LUNGE TO SQUAT X1 DUMBBELL BODYWEIGHT ONLY SAME SIDE! 1/2 REP BODYWEIGHT SQUATS! This will be one of those workouts I plan to revisit perhaps over Christmas holidays as it-s only 20 minutes and it definitely hits the spot! I think you will LOVE this workout! I definitely did and my legs felt pretty awesome after!

This is my second round of doing the Caroline's 24 days Christmas workout. I really enjoyed this! The 20-minute hard, dreadful. lol workouts really fit into my schedule allowing me no excuses. Would love to see another 20-minute program with longer weeks. Thank you so much Caroline for providing these workouts! ---

Caroline, I have such a hard time feeling my Quads during and after a workout. However, when I did this workout my quads were definitely challenged. Question--. do you think if I do this routine 3 times a week I might see a difference in shape, what-s your advise?

I had a few drinks last night and not the best sleep, but I did this! Go me! Now onto the upper body workout. - great workout, key staples and I love time under tension. I did it with 10kgs but the lunges I went with 8kg as my knees have been a bit stiff.

i don't have the indurance for this, like I get too puffed and also not enough muscle endurance. what should I do first to build up to this? I know its only a 20 minute WO and i used to be able to do her longer videos but am clearly not as fit anymore.

This was pretty challenging - it felt like I hadn't held my sevens in such a long time, and come to think of it, I dont think I've worked with them for about a month now, so the struggle makes more sense: )
Thanks for a solid workout, Caroline!

I love the controlled movements, they actually are harder to do than speed ones. By the end my legs were so shaky but I hold on to the pace no matter and it felt amazing, training an endurance there as well. Thank you dear Caroline! -----

saw this after advent, so started doing it mid Jan. Almost done, but I would love more of these 30 day challenges at 20 minutes a workout. That's about all the time I have. so it's perfect.

I did it to day, it's not simple when you are fasting because we are in month of ramadan. but it's the best way to be proud of your self. thank you so much ---------

I never knew that 20 minutes will be the perfect amount of exercise I need to feel it! Thank you so much, Caroline!
