This was a really nice quickie that still brings on some sweat, and at one point or another, ALL my muscles were engaged. We use weights for the majority of class, which is always a great reminder for me to drop my shoulders down my back instead of up around my ears. As an added bonus--oh my lord, as soon as that Savage Garden song came on....how do I still know all those words? Happy early birthday, Leah!!

So proud of myself for actually keeping track of and posting my board for the first time in my challenge history! I have REALLY noticed my stamina increase during this challenge, and like many of you, I am unbelievably grateful for the opportunity to approach my body in a different way other than "harder, more, sweatier, PUSH!". I am trying to be gentle about shifting that relationship with my body, and I am SO grateful that this space has my back. Congrats, all!!!!

Really feel you on listening to and not pushing your body, Ali. Thank you for helping me feel less alone!

Worlds best description. No one does it (or life!) like you, Monique!

What a delight to have my name called out even though it wasn't me! This is a very fun very challenging very bouncy sweat class. As such, we don't stay in any one sequence too long, which keeps the mind occupied and the body moving. Nothing is too complicated or tricky, just sweaty! If you're like me and consider those glute bridges to be more workout than cooldown (my brain is weird and likes to know), those end just before the 54 minute mark. Enjoy this one!

This class was like a really good intermediate level yoga class in my body. It built low heat and gave me opportunity for some challenging stretches and mobility exercises. I broke more of a sweat than I thought I would, which meant I got a nice little boost of energy. I needed the reminder about all challenges being an opportunity for growth. Thank you for this one

Immediately, I would love to know where those fabulous pants are from, Marnie. And hello, sweet baby Rye! I am in so much awe and gratitude that this workout platform has such a caring and consistent eye on nervous system health. As someone who has struggled pretty persistently with my relationship to my body and to exercise, this feels very nearly revolutionary. I know I am not alone in that journey. And as a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, I feel like it's an extra treat because I get to geek out about these learnings around the nervous system and polyvagal theory. Thank you x1,000,000 for being who you are, Marnie and for bringing this work and awareness to this platform. I feel lucky and grateful in ways I cannot fully describe. I needed this this morning!!

Man, I forgot how fun this one was! See Monique's comment below for a very comprehensive perspective of what to expect. This class is a little closer to 40 minutes, but I only say that so you don't skip any of the stretches! The whole class flows together really seamlessly. There's stretch in the sweat and sweat in the stretch, and the playlist is excellent.

Monique especially when you're using dish towels and noticing how much you should probably vacuum 😂
