Elena H. I would try again next - but put the bottom/padding part of your palm againt the edge of the counter and not the middle part of your palm... your wrist doesn't hae to be perfectly straight... but the straighter you can get it the less strain will be felt and that's why it might be doable.  Keep me posted**

Hi Shawne L.! The best and easiest way to work around this is to simple leave out any exercises in any given training session that you know you currently can't do. You focus on the exercises you CAN do - and you add more sets of those exercises to replace the sets you are leaving out. Let me know if that's doable :-)

Stephanie H. Perfect - let's make it 100% :-) Use this thread as your daily accountability check in. Do your training -and then come here and let us know you did it and WHAT YOU DID. ==> Remind me of your exact goals AND describe your current starting point... age, weight, body fat%, etc (get a body comp scale if you don't have one - I can recommend one if you need.) Let's goooo!!

Elena H. It's most likely your wrist position... BE SURE to keep the wrists straight - with a firm grip - DON'T let the wrists bend as that typically makes them ache/hurt. Let me know!

Erika B. Aim for 8-10 reps per exercise. Let me know how you do!

:-) You want to buy the DVD set for Ultimate Upper Body? (those older videos are not in Total-Access)

Kristine C. Aww thanks, Kristine! I appreciate the kind thoughts :-) Where are you guys tuning in from? ...for the bands - these are the ones: http://bestbodybands.com

For dumbbells - consider the best selling sets on this page (the Bowflex is good - but pricey for most people... the CAP brand is a very good alternative. https://amzn.to/4fn2i7X

Let me know what you get!

LuAnn P. well done on the training. Take a look at these bands - these can work https://amzn.to/4gL2G2H

Greeat goals, LuAnn P.! I would get the bands asap ( http://bestbodybands.com/ ) and I would follow the 5-Day Sample Schedule for getting started... if by some chance it's too easy - let me know and then I'd say try the 6-Day. Does that sound doable to you for getting started?

This is great, Beata!! Using the calendar feature is very powerful!!
