You Tube is getting smart.... this workout popped up as "for me" seeming to know that the live full body was cancelled today. I wasnt disappointed. I hadnt done it before and it is straight forward but as challenging as you want to make it. As with all of Chris' workouts, there is so much variety that the time flashes by. Thank you Chris, I loved it.
Found this one again last night looking for a “basic” full body workout as I still work up to where I was several months ago. I absolutely love this one. It’s so well-rounded. I don’t feel like it leaves anything out and is very well-balanced. Added it to my “would do again” playlist.
I really used to hate strength, especially squats! After doing your workouts for 9 months (off and on) I have come to really enjoy strength. Still don't love planks, but I know I will get stronger and they will get easier. This is my favorite strength video! My heaviest dumbbells are 10lbs...time to go up for sure! Thanks Chris!
I was really in the mood today for heavy full body, so it was the perfect day to revisit this workout. This is one of my favorite strength workouts. It's focused, slow, deliberate movements really allow me to challenge myself and go heavy. I love it. Thank you!
Fantastic workout. I increased my weights and focused on form. No accidents, no injuries, thanks to your slow and controlled workout. Slow doesn't mean easy!! Thank you for changing my mindset and my body. A million thank yous for your expertise, laughter, and motivation!
Great workout for all levels! Chris is so patient and takes time to explain everything so everyone is using proper form and getting the most out of the exercises. Thank you Chris!
What I loved most about this class were the 60 second segments. That's what seems to make a difference for me, in whether a class is challenging or not. I probably need heavier weights, too, but in the meantime, longer segments make a huge difference! Hoping for 30 pounders for Xmas.
Great, back-to-basics strength workout. I never get the chance to do your live classes, but I do love streaming them after the fact. I have a very close friend who is a personal trainer, she’s in her early 60s and looks easily 20 years younger. She preaches all the time to myself and all her clients about how important strength training is, especially as you get older. I don’t even think she does cardio anymore- just focuses on strength -and she looks better than ever!
Really liked the basic strength today! It allowed me to go up in weights on several of these moves which kept the heart rate up. I liked the combo of each segment: legs, arms, abs, repeat. Deadlifts are my favorite lower body move, the stretch always feels so good on the way down!
First time doing weights with you and apparently I found the best workout for that. Even though I only have 4 2-kg dumbbells and some bands, it was awesome. Long life to the basic exercises and thank you Chris for the workout!
I wasn't in the mood to work out but came across this workout and said why not....I always feel better afterwards. Thank you for fantastic workout and all of the good tips. Love and Light ❤
1000 percent full body today!!! Feeling strong, thanks for challenging us to go heavy! I cant believe I'm using 20-30 lbs weights with you - i would have NEVER used over 10 lbs.
My favourite full body workout yet! I increased the weights & pushed through staying as controlled as I possibly could! I know I'm going to feel this tomorrow! Thanks Chris, awesome class as always! ❤
Just what I needed today. Sadly, I have been so hit and miss with strength the last couple of weeks that this was perfect to get myself motivated and back into it again. Thanks so much, again Chris, for being here and for doing what you do! So appreciate you. 😎💕💪🏻💪🏻
Wasn't sure if I was up for a workout tonight after being on my feet all day but this full body strength workout was perfect and I'm feeling like a million bucks after!
I have to remember to always leave a comment so I know whether I did the workout or not LOL. I like so many I can't tell which is which! another great total body, just what I need it for Monday
Absolutely great. Doable, yet challenging! Makes me want heavier weights, especially for my legs. Perfect length--I add on a 10 minute stretch after. A new favorite, I think!
Loved this! Sometimes we don’t need or want an intense workout and want to focus on the basics and lifting a bit heavier. Thank you for the video and your expertise on the moves!
the best training style workout! great for beginners and a refresh for intermediate to advanced. @1:05 full screen Lou frozen @1:18 peek a boo Lou @28:45 Anna flash @30:28 Louie on cue @31:40 snuggle break @49:32 wave bye xoxo
Loved this total body workout! This type of strength training workout is my favorite of Chris’s. She recommends to try heavier and I am able to do just that and feel stronger after doing this workout 💪 Thank you Chris!!
Nice workout for a Monday morning. Strength training alternating days with a cardio class has improved my strength and muscle definition greatly. Not bad for a lady over 60. Your play lists provide the ability to choose appropriate formats and duration depending on how I am feeling on any given day. No excuses to do nothing. Thank you ❤ 🇦🇺
Okay folks. If you are looking for a good way to START with weights or if like me, you've been doing Chris's strength training for awhile and you wanted to see if you're ready to up your weights significantly but safely, DO THIS ONE!!!! 25 pounds on the deadlifts and I honestly would have tried 30s if I had them! Never in my wildest dreams that 3 years ago I'd be able to do this ❤
This was a great workout! I followed your advice and pushed myself to use heavier weights, and I was very proud of myself for making it through! Slowly moving away from my lighter weights and it feels great!
This was my first workout with you since Sept 8, when I developed sciatica....I am slowly easing back into working out (except for walking and hiking). I have missed your workouts!!!! I didn't do everything but did as much as I could.
Chris, thank you so much!! I absolutely LOVE your weight workouts! I feel so healthy and strong after I'm done. The other thing that keeps me working out with weights is the satisfaction I get being the only one in my office that can change the Hinckley Springs water bottles from the water dispenser. "Yesssssss!! 💪😃
I love this one! Sometimes compound moves are so complex. Today was like a progress report for me, I'm sure I attempted heavier than the last time I did this with you! Thank you!
I used my 30 lb weights for dead lifts and squats. That was the most they've ever been used and it felt good. Thanks for encouraging me to "go heavy". You rock (as always)!
Fabulous strength training session! I FINALLY invested in heavier weights, not a lot of space in my house so I did the adjustable ones!! So happy. I used to only have 2-10lbs. I saved my 8lbs as the adjustable only go up by 5lbs. Finally got to try 15 and 20 today ❤😅my husband is happy that I’m getting rid of the other weights hahaha. Thank you for always promoting everyone to try a heavier weight.. can always drop and go lower. 💖
Wow that went fast and to think I was trying to talk myself out of doing it I should know better than that as your workouts always go fast thank you again Chris another great one
Back to basics but never boring! This workout was great and just what I needed this morning! I aggravated an old neck injury in my sleep somehow (naturally I can manage to injure myself even at rest! 😂) and had to take a few days off so I wanted to ease into back and shoulders and this was perfect to modify this morning but still go heavy on lower body. Thanks for making your workouts so adaptable for any level of fitness! ❤❤❤
I remember doing this workout before as I recall the conversation. It’s good for me to go back to the basics & I did increase my weights on a couple moves. Hoping for another Phillies win in Atlanta!
Loved this! ...I have knee problems so it's so much better for me to transition from one exercise to the next without losing form in this format.. Thanks Chris
Hi Chris. This was the best advice and workout ever!!! Back to basic with the instructions on what to focus on and how to do the moves correctly was amazing. This one goes on repeat for me ❤
Really enjoyed this it had some of my favourite strength moves. I love Chest press and dead lifts, still working in abs I am sure I will get to enjoy them too🙄😂. Thank you Chris for a fantastic workout. Xx
Love this. I was able to lift with my injured arm! I have to wear wrist waits because my grip is not strong enough to hold over 10lbs. But it felt good to do some lifting and know I am healing and getting stronger
Nice easy 45 minute Full Body class. Great options. I had to take a few of them as I had been kicked in the ribs in my las soccer game. Couldn't jerk with any of the moves. Last abs one was the one that burned the most. See if I can do a step class later or not.
Thank you so much for this work out. Absolutely loved it. Going back to the basics of showing me how strong I’ve gotten. Will absolutely keep this in the rotation.
Another great one…felt great! As always, appreciate all the tips on form. It is really evident that you know your stuff…that’s why I come back day after day!!!😊😊😊
I really enjoyed this workout and the muscle/fat conversation. Thank you for explaining the differences. I grew up when the norm was to be skinny. Nothing else mattered. So glad times have changed. Looking forwarded to getting stronger and using your workouts to get there. 😊
LOVED this one. will be back to do it again. SO happy I found you, i've been needing to get motivated to work out again and I LOVE step. This was exactly what I needed.
I enjoyed doing this full body workout again. I remembered Nastia's red button 😊

Basic moves doesn’t equal easy! This is a perfect opportunity to increase your weights a little. Thanks Chris
Absolutely! Thanks Kendra!
Holy doley, my abs are still crying from the arms and abs the other day!! Loved it!!
I really used to hate strength, especially squats! After doing your workouts for 9 months (off and on) I have come to really enjoy strength. Still don't love planks, but I know I will get stronger and they will get easier. This is my favorite strength video! My heaviest dumbbells are 10lbs...time to go up for sure! Thanks Chris!
This is my very favorite style strength workout. Heavy, concentrated, slow movements. Loved it! Thank you!
It’s great to get back to basics! Slower means heavier weights. Thank you!
I was really in the mood today for heavy full body, so it was the perfect day to revisit this workout. This is one of my favorite strength workouts. It's focused, slow, deliberate movements really allow me to challenge myself and go heavy. I love it. Thank you!
Had Difficult time navigating to this class but I found you❤
Fantastic workout. I increased my weights and focused on form. No accidents, no injuries, thanks to your slow and controlled workout. Slow doesn't mean easy!! Thank you for changing my mindset and my body. A million thank yous for your expertise, laughter, and motivation!

Loved going back to basics. It’s so much easier to focus on form with this one. Thanks!
Thanks Chris...great "back to basics" workout. Sometimes it's nice to really focus on one body part at a time 👍
My favourite full body workout yet! I increased the weights & pushed through staying as controlled as I possibly could! I know I'm going to feel this tomorrow! Thanks Chris, awesome class as always! ❤
I love those simple moves because they allow me to increase the weight.
Wonderful!!

Good Morning. Im late but will be doing this in an hour.💪🏼
It was great to go back to basics! Can’t go wrong with any of these moves… and I increased my weights for every single one of them!
GREAT JOB!!!!!
Wasn't sure if I was up for a workout tonight after being on my feet all day but this full body strength workout was perfect and I'm feeling like a million bucks after!

Thanks Amy!

YAY!! I LOVE THIS so much Debbie! Great job!
Loved this! A break from compound moves was awesome because it really let me focus on the move. It’s just what I needed today. Thank you!
Loved the simple moves in this workout. I was excited to use my 20s!!

WOOO Thank you so so much Deb! This is such a great one for everyone! I love how strong you have gotten!
Great back to basics workout! Fantastic full body for Monday. Thanks so much!
First time live!
Good morning from AZ. Wish I could workout live. Checking out what I will be doing this afternoon!
This was a great workout! I followed your advice and pushed myself to use heavier weights, and I was very proud of myself for making it through! Slowly moving away from my lighter weights and it feels great!
Back to basics! Great workout to work on form and increase weights if you can. Thanks Chris!
Great "straight-up" strength training. I can see how my strength is improving, too!
YAY!!!!!!
Always feel such a sense of accomplishment after a full body strength workout. Thanks!
You're so welcome!
It’s great to just go back to the basics sometimes. This was a solid workout! And fun music! Thanks, Chris!
Thanks so much Lori!
Just perfect. Basic moves allow for heavier experimentation. Even nursing a slight rotator cuff tear I surprised myself.
Love this class! Well rounded full body and appreciate abs sprinkled in thru out. ❤
Fantastic workout. Thanks for all you do to keep the workouts fun and effective.
ohh soo good! Thankyou, thankyou, thankyou Chris! 💪🤩😍
Excellent solid workout that hits all the right muscles!
That was an awesome strength class. I plan to do this over and over and begin to increase the weights.
Did this again. Apparently. First time was on my birthday. Loved this basic but super effective weight workout.
YES!!!!!!!!! You get a lot of birthday redos LOL!
This was my first workout with you since Sept 8, when I developed sciatica....I am slowly easing back into working out (except for walking and hiking). I have missed your workouts!!!! I didn't do everything but did as much as I could.
Oh no Terry! !I hope you are not in too much pain!!!!
I really like this one. Back to basics style is fun!
Chris, thank you so much!! I absolutely LOVE your weight workouts! I feel so healthy and strong after I'm done.
The other thing that keeps me working out with weights is the satisfaction I get being the only one in my office that can change the Hinckley Springs water bottles from the water dispenser. "Yesssssss!! 💪😃
Thank YOU!!!!!!! LOVE THAT!
For a beginner, this one was great. I did it and increased my weight. I will be doing it again. Thanks Chris!
GREAT JOB!!!! YAY!
