FUEL Series 30 Min POSTERIOR CHAIN Circuits Workout | Day 8

Показать описание
2 circuits! First circuit aimed towards the glutes and hamstrings, second circuit the back!

This workout will involve hinging during both circuits at points so please take it SLOW!

For single arm bent over rows, you can place non working side hand on opposite knee, lean on a bench or place knee also on a bench if more comfortable for you!

Push ups can be performed on push up bars / hands elevated on a chair!

During RDLs, lower to approximately the knees to feel tension on the hamstrings whilst keeping dumbbells close to the body. You can lower that bit more of you feel confident, upper back not rounding and you are able to maintain form.

Remember every single person will person a movement slightly different, particularly when they have gained the basics of the movement and are able to then manipulate foot stance (toes more in or out), depth (also accounting for variations of weight), holding of weight (dumbbells more infront or on shoulders), grip (a solid grip but relaxing the fingers slightly), and natural tempo they may gravitate towards if no specific tempo is called for. These are my real workouts and I hope to continue to share exactly how I perform the movements so I would say always perform to a rep how feels comfortable for you, particularly the depth and foot stance!

The timer will be on for a majority of the workout 60 se seconds of work with 20 seconds rest inbetween each exercise!

The only deviation from this is the Pullover movement which is 90 seconds in total each time it appears!

We have 2 circuits to work through!

We complete the first circuit, focusing on the hamstrings and glutes, for 2 rounds. We then also complete 2 rounds of the next circuit which focuses on the back!

The dumbbell I am using for the Sumo Deadlifts and Hip Thrusts is 1 x 30kg. For everything else I use 2 x 15kg each!

CIRCUIT 1

X2

HIP THRUST (PAUSE AT TOP)

HAMSTRING THRUST

BAND ONLY!

SQUAT WALK

SUMO DEADLIFT (PAUSE AT BOTTOM)

RDL

BODYWEIGHT SUMO TO RDL

CIRCUIT 2

X2

PULLOVER (90 seconds)

BENT OVER ROW

SINGLE ARM ROTATIONAL ROW

SWITCH SIDE!

Finisher!

1 x 15kg

30/30

LANDMINE ROW
1/2 REP RDL

Ensure you pause ANYTIME you need to! I certainly do!

Train safe, with intent and control!

This workout will demand work from the entire posterior chain so ease into the reps when we reach the RDLs and Sumo Deadlifts!

Day 8 let’s go!

By the way Caroline, disregarding what everyone out there says, I love the fact that these are your real and own workout and I feel accomplished and proud to be performing them with you. I have never felt stronger after 2 years of inactivity since performing your programs. Please don’t give in. Again, like you said, if the workouts don’t challenge one’s own ability every time, there is no fun and no sense of accomplishment 💪🏼👍🏼

Thank you for providing the perfect model for YouTube workout videos. Timer, progress meter, exercise preview, tips on form, and no ads! I’ve been doing your workouts for a year now and they are incomparable. It is so motivating to see someone doing them in real time. I have no doubt that you have had a positive effect on the health of many, many people. 🙏

What another brilliantly planned, innovative workout from Caroline! I’m really looking forward to these two circuits! Great range of exercises to work the whole of the posterior chain! The 60 s work periods are going to be tough! I’m sure many of you, like me, are excited to do this! Have fun everyone! Enjoy a well deserved active rest day tomorrow! Matthew
PS...just finished...and I really enjoyed myself! I guess I say this every day...but today’s workout was so brilliantly planned by Caroline! The circuits were fun to do...the exercises were chosen so well...and then suddenly you’re at the end! I loved the add on too...that workout is one of my favourites! Have a great workout everyone! And enjoy your day! Matthew

My shoulders and triceps are just beyond sore after that tough session! I can't even tell you Caroline as how many times I questioned my existence during that workout lol!
Also I'm even more hungry these days and have gained a bit of weight and some muscle and I'm glowing and living my best life!!!
Now off to some posterior chain work .. gosh I'm loving fuel so much❤️❤️❤️
PS: my school exams are almost over and college entrance is coming so my main source of happiness and self care is working out with you Caroline💕

I've been working out with Caroline for over a year now, and I've been lurking this entire time. I finally decided to comment today, after finishing this (brilliant) workout - thank you, Caroline, from the bottom of my heart. Working out with you has brought me nothing but joy. Before COVID hit, I was an avid gym-goer, but I have long since canceled my membership because I have never been more consistent - or had more fun - working out than I do now (and I've never been stronger or looked better, either!)

The icing on the cake is this supportive, wonderful community. The YouTube comments section can be a scary (and downright depressing) place, but not on Caroline's videos! I've never seen such positivity within a community, and I'm honored to be a part of it. Thank you Caroline, and thank you everyone who makes this place so beautiful! ❤

So nice to do posterior chain again! DOING THIS WITH 30 KG & 15 KG THIS WAS BRUTAL, ABSOLUTELY BRUTAL. If Caroline only know those flashing moments when one cannot go on anymore, looks at the screen, and she´s looking right back at you like "damn this is hard". Haha Epic moments. BRUTAL. I LOVED IT. Did the add on too, don´t plan on using my legs much tomorrow.

Awesome workouts. I have followed several video workouts on YouTube. They are good but you’re the best. And there is so much to choose from. So happy and pleased I found your videos. By the way I am 83 years young.

So so glad for these shorter workouts. I have 6 kids and don’t have time for more. The best part is YOU decide how hard to push and how much weight to lift. Thank you, Caroline.

Hello everyone 😊 Caroline we all want you to continue share your real time workouts, would not want it otherwise 🥰 and the creativity of push, pull, holds, slow, and cardio is excellent and challenging and so well balanced! ! These circuits today were another brilliant flow of exercises, will be refuelling the tank tomorrow so we are ready for Friday 😊

I just loved the circuit style format. The back section was great … I clearly worked to failure with my 15kg today 😅 This FUEL program is amazing, thank you Caroline 🤩 Have a lovely Wednesday all!

I can say, without a doubt, that Caroline’s workouts have helped me to become stronger. Tomorrow will be a golf day for me and I can hit the ball further than I could before building my posterior chain! Thank you Caroline for helping me live my best life 😊
