I can't believe I did it! Friday I was struggling with the 90 seconds and today I managed 3 minutes very easily. I felt it more in my calves than my breathing. I am so in shock and so positive that I can maybe do this after all!!!! 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁

You can do it. The programme is brilliant. The worst that can happen is repeating a bit. Onwards! 😊

So glad my humble achievements are giving you hope!! The strange thing was that I found the first 90 seconds quite hard, then the 3 minutes was far easier. Can't work that one out but I was thrilled afterwards. Good luck! Let me know how you get on :-)
