365: Your biggest & best workouts of 2022 - Centr

You know you worked out this year. You have the sweat and the results to prove it. So rather than just tell you the top workouts, we're handing out awards for the biggest and best Centr sweat sessions of the year.

What was the best dumbbell workout? What was the biggest challenge? Which workout had the best banter?

We know you want to know. So throw on your training tuxedo as we hand out some trophies. And the winner is...

Best payback workout: Legends vs Trainers 1/17

Best payback workout: Legends vs Trainers

Our two favorite words of 2022: challenge accepted! We asked the Centr community to design a workout that would deliver payback for Luke, Alexz and Dan. You responded with an absolute belter. The only thing you forgot is that you'd have to do the workout, too...

Best dumbbell workout: Upper-body Ignition from Centr Ignite 2/17

Best dumbbell workout: Upper-body Ignition from Centr Ignite

Legend Angela put it best: "Luke and Alexz have delivered yet again!" That's right, the dashing duo came back with dumbbells on for 6 weeks of scorchers in Centr Ignite. Let's revisit that day 1 burn one more time before the year is over. This is the Intermediate workout.

Best functional workout: No Limits Full Body 3/17

Best functional workout: No Limits Full Body

What happens when Da Rulk takes his classic moves, progresses them, then mashes them into all-new sequences? Sweat happens. Dead legs happen. Then we push through the limits and never look back.

Best core bonus: Luke’s All-out Abs Challenge 4/17

Best core bonus: Luke’s All-out Abs Challenge

We looked back through member Steve's 2022 timeline and calculated that he took on this ab-burning bonus at least 6 times. His verdict: "Apparently this one never gets easier." Correct.

Biggest challenge: Train Like a Hero 5/17

Biggest challenge: Train Like a Hero

The hardest-hitting workout of the year was inspired by Da Rulk's training with firefighters. Shout out to our real-life firefighter Legends like Sebastian and Vicky who took on the challenge and crushed it! As member Michael said: "Leave it to Rulk to show us that we are tougher and stronger than we know."

Best bodyweight workout: No Limits from Centr Unlimited 6/17

Best bodyweight workout: No Limits from Centr Unlimited

If there were any limits, you well and truly busted through 'em with this session from day 1 of Unlimited with Luke and Alexz. We've linked to the Intermediate workout here – head to your training level in Programs to give it another shot.

Best workout under 10 minutes: Express Bodyweight Burn 7/17

Best workout under 10 minutes: Express Bodyweight Burn

Because you know that hitting the mat with Dan will be the best 7 minutes you spend all day.

Best workout banter: No Limits Bodyweight 8/17

Best workout banter: No Limits Bodyweight

Ten minutes of absolute fire. And that was just the banter! Member Chris (not that one...) spoke for all of us when he said: "So much fun, I forget I'm in the middle of a workout."

Best mindful recovery session: Full-body Meditation 9/17

Best mindful recovery session: Full-body Meditation

So 2022 thought it would throw us a few curveballs. What 2022 didn't know is that we had the power of Tahl's yin-inspired stretching session keeping our bodies and minds cool as a cucumber all the way.

Best stretching session: All the Right Places 10/17

Best stretching session: All the Right Places

No wonder members like Maria kept coming back to this stretch. Sylvia's stretching does exactly what it says on the label: helping us loosen up in all the right places.

Best HIIT HIRT Strength workout: Full-body Fast-track 11/17

Best HIIT HIRT Strength workout: Full-body Fast-track

When Luke breaks out the dumbbell devil presses as the opening move of round 1, you know you're in trouble. We bet Mark wasn't the only member who couldn't get up off the mat in the aftermath!

Best home muscle-building workout: Full-body Balance 12/17

Best home muscle-building workout: Full-body Balance

It's been a busy year, which is why we keep coming back to this full-body lifting session with Bobby from week 1 of Centr Power at Home: Intermediate. Because big compound movements always deliver the best bang for your strength training buck.

Best gym muscle-building workout: Total Body Balance 13/17

Best gym muscle-building workout: Total Body Balance

This heavy metal sweat fest had member James leaving the gym "feeling pumped". Meanwhile, the Welsh God of Thunder could practically feel himself "getting bigger" as he added plates to the barbell. Such is the power of Centr Power in Gym!

Best beginner workout: Make Your Move 14/17

Best beginner workout: Make Your Move

Maricris arrived on the scene to remind us you don't need to be the fittest or the strongest, you just need to get moving!

Best low-impact cardio workout: Burn for Definition 15/17

Best low-impact cardio workout: Burn for Definition

Member Erica calls it Alexz's "fiery magic". All we know is that when we want the burn without the impact, Alexz is there.

Best cardio: Full-body Jump 16/17

Best cardio: Full-body Jump

They say what goes up must come down. But our heart rate has been right up there all year thanks to this Advanced Plyo jump fest from Bobby.

Best warm-up: Total-body Take Off 17/17

Best warm-up: Total-body Take Off

Psst, we're going to let you in on a secret. It wasn't just the workouts Sylvia was preparing you for with this warm-up, it was LIFE. There's a whole lot more life coming at you in 2023, so let's warm up for it one more time.
