…so I do it at home
I love deadlifts, so I was very excited to discover a workout from Caroline Girvin devoted to them. That's what RDL stands for BTW: Romanian Deadlift. Because of the length of this workout, and the fact there is no warm up, it is a perfect finisher workout, which is how I used it this morning. … Continue reading 15 Minute Hardworking Hamstrings / RDL Dumbbell Workout
Squats for Glutes Workout is Day 28 in Caroline Girvin's EPIC II program. This is an excellent lower body workout. It was tough but not as brutal as some of her other workouts that I have done. It did burn my glutes out nicely. I found this workout very enjoyable. There are a lot of … Continue reading Squats for Glutes Workout // EPIC II Day 28
Legendary Leg Workout / No Frills Leg Day is day 48 in Caroline Girvan's EPIC II program and it is another tough strength workout. As usual, Caroline burned out my lower body.

Caroline does everything at a slow and controlled pace so I never … Continue reading Legendary Leg Workout / No Frills Leg Day / Epic II Day 48
Epic 2 Day 3: 45 Minute Upper Body Workout is another brutal strength workout from Caroline Girvin. This is only Day 3 of her EPIC II program! I am not doing her EPIC workouts in order--nor do I plan to do all of them. I have already done Days 23, 34 and 37 of her … Continue reading 45 Min Upper Body Workout / Dumbbells & Bodyweight | EPIC II – DAY 3
This was actually the first workout by Caroline Girvan that I previewed and I was very impressed. I ended up trying some of her other workouts before finally getting to this one, but I didn't forget about it. I was actually a little afraid of this workout but it didn't end up being as brutal … Continue reading Squat and Press NO LESS Full Body Workout / EPIC II Day 34
Loaded Glute, Hamstring & Back Workout is Day 37 of Caroline Girvan's EPIC 2 program. The title alone sounds like an awesome workout and I knew Caroline would destroy whatever muscle group she is working. Having now done the workout, that is no lie. She destroyed my lower body. Before doing the workout I was … Continue reading LOADED Glute, Hamstring & Back Workout / Posterior Chain | EPIC II – Day 37
Day 21 of EPIC / Leg Workout at Home is part of Caroline Girvin's first Epic series (or Epic I). Yesterday I did It's Row Time! from her Epic II program, so I am obviously not doing her workouts in program form. I am just previewing them and doing the ones that look like something … Continue reading Day 21 of EPIC | Leg Workout at Home
Caroline Girvan is a new to me trainer who lives in Northern Ireland. She was recommended to me by a blog reader. I previewed some of her workouts on YouTube and I was very impressed. I decided to give her workouts a try. What I liked about her workouts that I previewed is that they … Continue reading It’s Row Time! 45 Min Back Workout with Dumbbells / Epic II Day 23
This seems like a new type of workout for Heather Robertson. She does a lot of strength workouts, but I don't remember seeing a muscle split like this one. Usually she just focuses on the back or the arms or just does a full upper body workout, so I was pleased. Chest, Back & Shoulders … Continue reading Chest, Back & Shoulders Workout // Strength Supersets
Strength Supersets // Total Body Workout with Dumbbells is another excellent total body strength workout from Heather Robertson. This is yet another one of Heather's workouts that I absolutely loved. I think this one might be more approachable for many people, too. If I am remembering correctly, her other superset workouts usually have you repeating … Continue reading Strength Supersets // Total Body Workout with Dumbbells
