Uh
Hey everyone, this is morgan yates. And today I am hopping on the bandwagon. I have tried the two week chloe teen
What's it called? The two week shred challenge. I believe i've seen these videos. It's been a minute
I'm a little late to the trend. Hopefully i'm not too late
If this is the first video you're seeing of mine, I would love if you would subscribe and stick around
If you didn't know I also have a second channel a vlog channel where I post
Day in my life stuff and i've been talking about this video over there
So it's been a long time coming and I guess some very quick background if you're not familiar with this program
Um, i've been seeing some crazy results. Basically. Chloe ting. She's a youtuber
Um, she has a lot of great workout videos and she puts together monthly programs pretty much every month
So this one everyone's doing is actually I believe from august of 2019
That is a year ago
But I decided to take on her 14 day program the workouts range from 25 to 50 minutes every day
There are two rest days and supposedly you're gonna have crazy abs at the end of it. So
Let's see. Let's go ahead and hop into some before clips. Just a disclaimer. I was extremely extremely extremely bloated in these before clips
So, um whenever you see results at the end of this just remember that keep that in mind, but yeah
This is what we're starting with on day one
It is day one
I am
Mad my workout game this whole quarantine has been so up and down over the past few months
I feel like I go through like a week of killing it and then I go through you know
Two three weeks of nothing and that's what it's been the past few weeks
So i'm feeling a little weak at the moment, but i'm excited to spice up my workout game with just some new stuff
I've been doing a lot of the same stuff for a while
and if you're watching my other videos, you know, I love boxing things and this is not that at all so i'm excited to see
How I like it what happens how I feel these will maybe be famous last words
But I just did a brief skim of the two videos for today
They're only two videos. I wanna say it's like 23 minutes of exercise
And I feel like this does not look that bad. We'll see how I feel after
What the horse group
Thank you
Okay
Well, well well
Day one's complete. I
Way underestimated that i'm sweating for it to have been pretty short it like really fatigued the muscles you were working
Here's our day one abs
This is gonna be an exhausting two weeks
also just random thought tidbit as much as I love doing little challenges like this and pushing myself and whatever and you know,
Regardless of what results may or may not be seen in two weeks
This is the first day i've worked out in several weeks. Like I said, it's crazy
like it's like sometimes I forget how much this affects my mental health like i've just been sitting around for a little bit and
Already, I just like feel lighter. I feel better
I feel like I have a more optimistic outlook on life and everything going on at the moment
I just already feel more positive and hopeful after one workout. And so
I don't know how I even let myself get into cycles of like not exercising
It's not to me about even just like the physicality of it all. I don't know I
Exercise to feel good, and I just want that to be
The biggest message that's conveyed in this. I don't know just some day one thoughts. I feel really good
I'm, probably now going to go on a walk
I just want to be able to look back on this myself
Whenever i'm not feeling like working out and remind myself of how much better I feel afterwards
Day two
I'm, not in the mood. Think about my little rant from yesterday i'm gonna feel great after i'm sore from yesterday
And then today you're telling me I got to do both those videos again and another one
I feel like my abs all the plank motions. I feel it in like my back and my shoulders
You
Day three I slept
So badly because every time I would roll over I would wake up because I was in pain because i'm so sore
Today's is the longest so far. We've added yet another video. It's up to four videos for day three
It's 45 minutes, which is a while, but I have a narrow window before my roommates get home
So it's perfect because I don't have time to hear and be a little baby about it. I'm just going to knock it out
We did it I can already tell in the videos that repeat every day that i'm getting stronger
Day four I am sore
The past two nights I have been so sore. I would say the places i'm sourced so far are my butt and my back
Did it
Save a lot more arm stuff
And my wrists hurt from all like the plank things and then for day five not pictured
It was a rest day. I believe chloe wants us to be having an active rest day where you do some light movement
um, but I
didn't do anything so
I'm so sleepy and I need to work out. Let's get it
So prior to today there was a rest day i'm saying coming back after that it's hard some lizza will get us there
We did it day six was something
Day seven is a long one you guys also i've come to learn now that I think i've done most of these videos I
Love this lower body one and so far. My least favorite is this corn arms one that we're gonna do today
It was really hurting my wrist last time. We got a long day ahead once again feeling a touch
Unmotivated especially since I don't like that one video, we're gonna try it again
Did it wasn't as bad as expected I didn't hate that arms video as much as I did the first time my roommates are starting
This as well today, how was day one?
Great. I actually sweated a lot. I am all out of the shave at the moment. Well, she had the brownies I did. Okay
Dressed like a cheetah girl today. We're now on today eight. We got four vids today
Also, I did a thing, but it's no big deal, but i'm gonna tell you anyway
Technically today should be a rest day and I should have done this workout yesterday
But I took a rest day yesterday just wasn't having a good day. So, you know what? We just swapped them
I'm, so excited today and tomorrow we have the low body video. I've never been someone who likes legs ever
It's always been my least favorite thing
But especially for these to be bodyweight exercises the lower body video really spices it up
But we're gonna hop in and we're in the on the home stretch
Also since these get a bit repetitive something i've been doing is playing
Different music every day kind of doing it like a soul cycle themed class ordeal like i've done like a lizzo day a beyonce day
I'm kind of feeling kelly clarkson at the moment which isn't like workout hype music, but I don't know it just feels right
Um
Let's do it guys
Little lazy
And then for the final days, I just kind of breezed through I was in my groove
It was becoming a bit more of a habit and not as much something. I had to motivate myself to do every day and
I was having fun with the workouts
That brings us to the end of the challenge I finished it a couple weeks ago actually and just some brief
reflections and things I learned the first thing something I never thought I would say is that I love
Training legs as I mentioned earlier in the video. That was just kind of always my weakest thing I guess in the workouts
I've been doing for the past year or so
Even though this was a very short program. I felt like there was a good amount of legs included
And I also really appreciated how she spiced up a lot of the movements
um
There were a lot of fun like little squat kick moves and things like that
And even since completing the challenge i've continued to go back and do that lower body video because I think it's a lot of fun
another thing
It was just cool seeing throughout time how much easier a lot of the moves got?
In particular like the planks where you the hip dip planks hipped in them. That's good
Those were so hard at the beginning never my life. Have I been able to do those? So throughout these two weeks?
I got a lot better at that as well as these like up down plank things
Those used to fatigue me so quick and now I can power through those so physical results aside
It's just cool like feeling your own strength grow
another reflection of mine actually is just um
It showed me how many muscles?
That I guess you get at in a plank position
That I was not adequately working in the past. I guess whenever I train abs, I just usually do it on my back
You know makes sense, right?
but if you do any of these videos you'll see she's constantly switching between like
ab moves on your back and then ab moves in a plank
And like she got plenty of variations of those and it makes sense because you're working your core
From like all the way around and maybe that's what makes this so effective
So now finally for some result clips first of all the side by side again
Let's recall. I was very bloated in the first but even when i'm not bloated I
Never had those little my little side ab lines were never as popping as they were in this after but an even bigger
Observation I would say is that this worked my butt and I feel like there were the most results in my butt
Which again makes sense? Because I never really did that much like stuff
Um, like you see it in the side photo from behind again. Look at that waist
she got
sucked up snatched
You know
this could just be a difference in posing but
My booty is popping more in that second shot flip it around from the front again
You just see that ab definition
I feel like my thighs you see it a little bit and then I can't believe i'm showing my um
Untanged lower stomach in these big high waisted swimsuit fan here again. You just see the difference in definition there
So I think this program worked about a lot that's my conclusion. I did measure my waist as well
I didn't get a clip of doing it the first time but I wrote it down at the beginning
It was 29 inches at the end. It was 28 inches. So that's one inch so yeah in conclusion
I think this is a great program
Especially if you have been struggling to have a consistent workout
If you're struggling to think of new things to do or whatever
starting out
I thought I was not going to feel this way after the first couple of days, but I give this two thumbs up
I've actually, um still been doing a lot of her workout videos
She's put up some ones recently. I think from her july program that include weights
So i've been doing those, um to try to like build some strength back up
But overall it was just a fun way to switch things up
I used to despise bodyweight training and this showed me that it can be really effective. So i'm glad I took part
Let me know if you guys have tried this out or if you would if you have any other fitness challenges or other things
In general that I should try for a video. I would love to hear those ideas also and again
Thank you so much for watching and I will see you in my next video
