I have worked out off and on ever since I was in fourth grade. I feel like I have tried just about every workout routine there is. I signed up for Beachbody on demand in 2020. I worked out 3-4 days a week but saw little results. I follow Candace Cameron Bure on Instagram, and she kept posting her workouts with her trainer, Kira Stokes. After hearing that she is in her forties and looks as amazing as she does, I knew it was time to check it out.
I signed up for the seven-day free trial and was blown away. I knew I had gotten extra fluffy over the years, but when I could barely get through the warmup, I knew I needed to stick around. I started using Kira's app in March 2021. I wish I could say I have stayed faithful to my workouts, but I have not. I can make it further than I could when I first started, but I still cannot do a full workout from start to finish. I've noticed changes in my arms. Kira loves to work the triceps.
Kira's workouts are very challenging, but they work. I feel so much stronger than I used to. My only complaint is she goes through three rounds of the same exercises. I get bored very quick, so I hate to repeat exercises. She does change them up each set, but it's not quite enough for me. I plan to stick with her app for a while. I can't wait to finally complete a workout start to finish. Once I achieve that goal, I will move on to trying to complete the entire stoked stack.
When I first started out, I did not have her workout gear. I just modified the workouts as needed. Once I knew I was going to stick with her for a while, I ordered the stoked set. The stoked pro was not an option at the time. I have since added the stoked block, ab wheel, and jump rope. The stoked block allows you to go into a deeper lunge and man does it burn! The jump rope just came back in stock, so I haven't tested it out just yet. I have used the ab wheel and I've learned I have no abs. I am working hard to get some muscle back. I am excited to have found her because I like how I feel with her workouts.
