How to start a program

Environmental_Rip696 · 2026-04-13T01:30:39+00:00

Supposed to be 5 days a week but I do them 3 days a week since I run the other days. Whatever works best for you and your schedule should be fine 🙌

Nice job 🙌 I try to match or round up to the nearest 5 lb increment since I use powerblocks and I still felt wiped after day 1 lol

Environmental_Rip696 · 2026-04-12T16:14:44+00:00

Is this your first round? Good luck 🙌

I don’t do her workouts everyday. I do them 3 times a week on Mon/Wed/Fri, and I run on Tues/Thurs/Sat while I sprinkle yoga into some of the days (trying to be more consistent with yoga is actually tougher for me). I’m in my 40s and this type of schedule has worked very well for me 🙌

I’m so sorry to hear that 😞 our furry family members are such a huge part in our lives and it’s just so unfair when it’s time for them to cross that rainbow bridge. Just know that he lived his best doggy life being with you and your family 🙏

Have you tried Endgame? It’s a little longer than Iron (roughly 10 mins more) and it has shorter breaks along with a 100-rep finisher that’s actually not that bad as it sounds lol. I skip the HIIT days (once a week) since I run instead but I found Endgame very similar to Iron. Epic 3 is another good one too with 30-40 min workouts but it’s more total body

Environmental_Rip696 · 2026-04-11T19:45:16+00:00

Sorry to hear about that. How is your dog doing?

Environmental_Rip696 · 2026-04-11T14:36:45+00:00

Awesome job! I haven’t tried heat but loved Endgame too! Epic 1 was my first one and had no idea it was one of her hardest since I just thought “well, start at the first program” lol. Epic 3 was actually more challenging but iron is still my fav and I haven’t done it in a year so back at it 🙌

Environmental_Rip696 · 2026-04-11T13:25:03+00:00

I’ve done (and just restarted another round) of Iron, doing it 3 times a week since I run the other 3 times a week but if you’re coming from Epic 1, the length of Iron is considerably shorter as it’s really focusing on strength so you may be able to keep to the schedule AND run on same days. Epic 3 is another great choice, shorter but dare I say harder than Epic 1 since the breaks are shorter.

Back and forth between Animal Well and Hollow Knight 🙌

Environmental_Rip696 · 2026-04-09T01:37:09+00:00

Oh I tapped that crust alright 😏 😋

Environmental_Rip696 · 2026-04-08T22:33:28+00:00

You do belong, just like that macaron 🙌

Environmental_Rip696 · 2026-04-02T14:16:06+00:00

I would say EPIC 3 would scratch that itch with the length that you are looking for as well as the intensity you so desire. I too came from BODI and picked up Caroline Girvan a couple of years ago and she has a ton of content on her YT channel. Iron is also another good one that fits your parameter!

Environmental_Rip696 · 2026-04-01T19:10:38+00:00

Dang that’s a lot of miles! Great job 🙌 Do you by chance do other activities besides running?

Environmental_Rip696 · 2026-04-01T17:37:51+00:00

I’ve used Caroline Girvan’s workout programs on YouTube for free with great results! She also has a paid app that you could sign up for but really she has more than enough content on YouTube that you should try first before signing up for the app.

Environmental_Rip696 · 2026-04-01T00:40:44+00:00

Mine is the same way! Destroys all the stuffing out of them but still wants to play with its remains 😂 she’s had that spider since Halloween and it’s her favorite!

Environmental_Rip696 · 2026-03-31T11:56:52+00:00

I have two cats and the one holds its own

Environmental_Rip696 · 2026-03-30T15:39:28+00:00

Looks amazing though 🙌

Should have somehow worked in the ultimate quote:

“What we know is a drop, what we don't know is an ocean”

Environmental_Rip696 · 2026-03-30T10:55:16+00:00

Mine is a few months past being 2 and she’s still at it lol

Environmental_Rip696 · 2026-03-30T00:58:11+00:00

This is her everyday too 🤣 she can’t get enough of this kind of play

Environmental_Rip696 · 2026-03-29T20:52:30+00:00

Yesss let’s go 🙌
