Wow. So many feels lol. This class was a great finale. I look forward to doing it again. Long post loading lol:

I did this program fully expecting myself to give up because that’s what I’ve always done in my history of working out over the years lol. So the fact that I made it to the end is like WOWWWW. I didn’t have any aesthetic goals (i.e. tone up my body, lose weight etc) because I realized those goals are what cause me to be inconsistent if I don’t see the physical results quickly. So I went into this with the goal of falling in love with movement again, teaching myself that I can do hard things, and find the balance between pushing myself and letting myself dial back.

And while I’m estastic that I can now pick up 20lb & 25lb dumbells & kettlebells, what I’m most over the moon about is the way this program worked my brain. This program has been transformative for my mental state. I feel like I’ve found myself again, even though I didn’t know I was lost. This sounds so dramatic lol but it’s my truth 😭. I haven’t been this excited to continue movement in YEARS. I’m thrilled to have that itch back. I am proud that I made it through the whole challenge. And I can’t wait to keep coming back to this.

I cannot thank you enough, Ruth!! You did an amazing job with putting this all together, no notes!!! I don’t even have enough words to express my gratitude, just know I’m over here holding back tears (it’s true, I cry at everything) because of all the feels lol 💜💜💜💜

Editing to add that I just walked past the mirror and caught a glimpse of my booty and it’s sitting nice and plump LOL. I said “now when did you get back there” and giggled LOL. Added bonus 🙂‍↕️

Kept my weights the same as the first time (2 15lbs and one 25lb). Wasn’t able to get more than 4 rounds (same as last time) bc my energy is meh today BUT I was able to do 2 rounds of the step ups this time. Last time I attempted only 1 round and it was a struggle. This time, it was more of a challenge than a struggle. A win for me!
