I have had these for several weeks ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxP26Tir6n60vUkdtn4mbwhRO8cwuJQNy2 and I have been really happy with them so far. I love being able to do a variety of workouts at home when I don't have time to make it to the gym. When paired with a basic bench, there are tons of different exercises and you can hit pretty much all major muscle groups. It is easy to adjust to your desired weight with the dials on each side. They slide in and out of the cradle smoothly. The only downside to this design vs the newer version, is that these are pretty wide. This does limit your range of motion with certain hand positions on certain exercises. Straight dumbbell press would be an example of this. I have to turn my hands slightly in order to bring them close enough together. Not a huge deal to me though. Really happy with this purchase and would definitely recommend.
Hi everyone! I’ve been under the weather for almost a week and so exhausted. Touching base to say that I’m learning that taking care of yourself can mean missing workouts if you are recovering from illness or surgery! I’m happy to say that although I miss working out I am not beating myself up for the first time while I’m not well. I’m listening to my body and doing lighter activities like walking and gardening until I’m 💯 and can join you again. In the past I’ve pushed myself to exercise and only lengthened my illness. I’m writing this to remind you that wellness isn’t just about going hard all the time, it’s important to take care of yourself and rest when your body needs it. ❤❤❤
Hope you are feeling well and continue to recover. You are right absolutely. Sometimes it is okay to take a break and let the body heal especially if you are not feeling well. This way you will come back stronger. I am glad you are recognizing and giving us a nudge to remember that always.
Hope you feel better!! I agree with Sharmila, taking breaks are great to let your body heal/recover and I am sure you will get back into when you are ready!!
I needed to read this!! Thanks for sharing. I was 23 minutes into this Fire lower body workout and my lower back went out. Took me to the floor! I had to watch Sydney finish the workout from my mat. I was so bummed! But you are right! I need to not feel bad and just heal. Thanks! Hope you feel better soon!
Holy holy holy 😅😅😮the burn 🔥. I was worried going in as well as I chose to take this workout outside in 80 degree weather 😎😜in light of summer time fine. 💪🏽🙏🏽🫶🏼👍🏼
Day 23 done !! 🎉 !! Wow !! Couldn't do the last one and had to do other exercises to keep myself moving but i am not upset because i see I have gotten stronger and this is just the beginning !!
I have been Sydney’s workouts for almost 2 years and the this workout and the last one were challenging! I crushed both of them in the same day. I am tired now!😊
Holy GUACAMOLE😮🥑 I might be the sweatiest I’ve been all month!!!!! 🎉🎉🎉To everyone who finished this workout, no matter if you had to keep telling yourself to just keep moving(like I did), you are a BAD ASS!!!!!
Holy god. Definitely a fiery 30 mins. Legs are shaking. Thanks Sydney for a powerful workout. Proud to be finishing the fire week strong. Crushed it 😊💪💪💪💪💪💪💪
Watch the changes that happen when you put in the work and effort. Things won’t happen overnight or just start to happen for you without the effort. Your mind is the strongest muscle you have while remember we need to train our minds as much as we need to rain our bodies. Be good to yourself and believe in yourself. ❤
I'm quite behind in the workout calendar due to pregnancy, but I have to say I'm loving this STF! I really miss your little dances at the end of the workouts though @sydney! x
My goodness my legs and booty are on fire!! That last circuit though! 😮 Tier 1 done! Crushed it! Let's go squad...we got this! Anything worth it is hard and you can do hard things! 💯 🙌🏼🦵🏽🍑🔥🥵
That finisher was a killer…brutal…but loved every minute! You have to stick around for her words at the end…simply beautiful! She’s right that you can’t grow and do better next time if you don’t make yourself uncomfortable too. If you don’t do anything else listen to her at the end!!!
PS.. love your comment about knowing our own bodies & taking accountability for our weights selection, making me a smarter fit person..& STILL❤'ing ALL the music..Makes me remember the high school weight room blasting rock and rap, the beat gets you goin!
Holy hells inferno that was hard. Soooooooooo proud of myself for pushing through and also doing this late evening after a long and hard work day. Hell yeh!!
I’ll be honest, I really hate 3 minute workout periods. My mind can’t get past how long it takes, then I’m pausing the video for 15 seconds inbetween them all anyways. I really dreaded this one, but happy I did it. The end I felt incredibly weak bc I didn’t even use weight for the 3 minute in a row glute bridges . I really got to change my mindset so I feel leaving good and not frustrated bc this week has been rough for me
Cristal, I feel exactly the same way. I've considered throwing in the towel on STF more than once the last two weeks. I definitely dislike the 3 minute work periods and all the breaks I must take to keep up even though I haven't missed one of Sydney's workouts since January 1st. I can't wait for next week in hopes of a different format.
i feel the exact same. i feel like i haven't done any of the workout because i took so many breaks, in between & while sydney is working. l leave frustrated also.
Sydney, I appreciate you so much ❤ I usually turn to the comments for motivation but some of these comments intimidated me. I almost left the workout without doing the cooldown stretch. Not because I didn’t want to, but instead I was so pumped about not giving up and maxing out my weight on the glute bridges which I could never do before I started walking off smiling but I knew I had forgotten something. I’m getting stronger everyday. You’re cool down speech was everything for me today. Sometimes you do have to channel out everything else going on in your life to get the most out of the workout in a positive way. I absolutely loved this one. Excited for tier 2. Strength is my jam! This is my first STF and although many parts are challenging, I’m not leaving your workout feeling defeated or dreading the next. Keep ‘em coming baby 🎉
I can't believe Teir 1 is over already. It went by so fast. I hope everyone has been working hard since the beginning. Next month is going to be epic!! ❤❤💪💪
I used to fear lower body, now I look forward to it and keep pushing myself, yes I am getting stronger!!!🎉🎉🎉🎉 thanks Sydney for another great workout, though I kept pausing to catch my breath!🎉🎉
The humidity in NS Canada today is brutal and this is the workout I did for STF haha It kicked my butt and loved it. 7 months PP and Sydney guided me through my whole pregnancy with her workouts. Honestly, it's been the best feeling getting back into the routine and building my strength back. TY Sydney! ❤🎉
Wow! This one is a killer. I am in shape and yet I was sore for 3 days. The last 2 sets were so darn hard. I could feel my glutes screaming the next day during my 25 mile bike ride. You can do this!
WOW.. yes, this workout earns a spot on the FIRE list! Hello burn. I haven’t pushed that hard in a LONG time. Can’t wait to feel the quads and glutes tomorrow.
Just loving it and can’t wait to get to second tier with you all! Way to go Sydney and bestie @manonmethot1930 for showing me this amazing workouts. Love love love ❤❤❤

@@kristinarich9567 I hope your back heals quick!
Those “butt lifts” at the end for 3min straight tested my endurance for sure!
I did it 🎉
You are BIG TIME Coach ❤
I knew I should be worried when Sydney looked like she was dripping sweat on her stories 😅 One of the hardest workouts I’ve done in a long time!
Same! I was secretly hoping maybe her AC was broken! 😅
I know right, tell me about it I have not done her work out for a while so am suffering
Oh boy, I’m about to do it today and I’m so tired, it’s Thursday, I’m on my last bit of fumes 😂
In Sydney's post work out talk she was like "don't hate me" and I knew I was in for it. But we made it fam and I'm glad I'm on the other side lol.

I hope next month will be different.

Feeling the fire today!!!🎉🎉
I paused the video so many times but I finished the work out dripped in sweat! 💦 Great workout, Sydney!😍 Thank you.🙏🏾
Man legs are on fire. Loved that workout. The finisher was a killer!
That was the hardest but best workout. I pushed myself with bigger weights. 🎉
The cue to exhale and brace your core before hinging in the deadlift was perfect! Really helped me finally connect with the form.
❤❤❤That workout was awesome!! I love them all but this is by far one of my FAVES❤❤❤
