"I can see muscle definition in my arms and back.. and my tummy is now starting to flatten out a bit"

I’ve tried so many programs before this one. Most I would reach the 1/2 way point before falling off the wagon. I used to play rugby in high school and to be honest, that’s probably the last time I was happy with my body. 

Now in my 30’s, I had just started getting back into working out a few years ago when I had a rollerblading accident that ended in a broken wrist (on my birthday, but that’s another story). 
Then I saw a simple video on Facebook. The concept was easy, I knew a lot of the moves already… but the idea of working out to failure was new. I also loved the idea that it could be quick and easy. 

Since my city was in lockdown I decided to take a chance. What’s one more try anyways, and it’s not like I had anything better to do. 

I already had a 10lb dumbbell set, so I found a chin-up bar in Amazon and ordered some resistance bands and I was all set. I noticed small changes relatively quickly.

I went from 3 assisted chin-ups to now being up to 8 assisted. I can see muscle definition in my arms and back.. and my tummy is now starting to flatten out a bit. 

Last week I went to the beach and had a few comments from friends. I honestly can’t believe how my body is changing. Not to mention my being able to deal with Toronto being under lockdown since Christmas. 

You guys have truly changed my life. I’ve even been thinking about taking the teaching program because I feel like everyone needs this in their life.

 I’m now on day 63 and can’t wait to see what the next few weeks bring, or even another few months. I truly am grateful.

"10x provided me with a program to work on that I adjusted to my lifestyle and my motivation for improving my body"

Now I use much less time for exercise (I only need 10-30 minutes depending on my routine of the day, up to 5 days per week right now) and enjoy fitness with purpose and much more than ever. I also did it all with only my body and resistance bands throughout at home...
