  1. This is great info. I wish it was a more friendly to use format, like something I could download onto my phone, or an app!

    Regardless, thank you for sharing 🙂

    1. Kelly, We’ll have a calendar designed and added to the post…hopefully early this week. You’ll be able to download it on your phone. 🙂

  2. This is great, i love that you have videos to show how the exercises are done. but I have a question about which meal plan do you suggest go with this workout plan? thanks

  3. Hi Gale
    This is a great tutorial on keeping fit.
    I have back issues discs etc, & was wondering if I could replace the jumping jacks with a different exercise. I think it might be too hard on my back.
    Great ifo.

    Regards
    Geraldine

  4. This is a great kick butt workout but have been wondering if I was doing the right number of reps, when it says 40 Russian twists is that 40 total, meaning 20 per side? Or do you count both sides as 1 rep?

  5. Sorry, now I’m a bit confused. I don’t see “each leg” (or per side) indicated anywhere except reverse lunges, so I assumed the quantities listed for all other exercises were totals per set. Are all of the numbers listed for the other unilateral exercises — 40 butt kicks, 40 knee raises, 30 hip dips, 20 walking lunges, 40 mountain climbers, 40 Russian twists, etc — meant to be the total number per side, not per set? Thanks!

    1. Jennifer, For example, 40 Mountain Climbers: complete 20 each side, alternating sides as shown in the video. This is true with any of the moves that involve alternating sides, i.e. walking lunges, reverse lunges, Russian twists, etc.

  6. I am 70 years old and this is my 2nd week on the program!!! I absolutely love it, it’s so doable…i also have added every day 5 exercises with weights, like bicep curls, triceps kick backs etc etc….thanks for a great program that is not overwhelming!!!

    1. Anneke, GREAT! Thank you so much for the feedback. Please let us know how you liked the program at the end of the 21 days. 🙂
      We have tons of doable programs on the site.

  7. What would you recommend moving onto after you complete the 21 days? The first three weeks I only did 3 circuits but now that I’m getting stronger I’m doing all 4 circuits this week ???

  8. Any idea what the approximate calorie burn is on any of these days, excluding the cardio portion?
    Thanks!

    1. Amber, Everyone is different and the amount of calories burned depend on numerous factors, i.e. weight, height, body composition, etc..

    1. After the 21 days, continue with a healthy eating plan and regular exercise to see continued improvement. 🙂
