JM is working well! I actually usually find her annoying (like 30 day shred) but with this, she seems more mature? more confident? I don't know. It is pretty motivating I think.

JM is better in BR than others.

I do love Tony Horton, but he really does talk too much. You could easily cut 15 minutes out from the non-yoga or cardio ones with that. Perhaps X3 will be shorter because of that.

I was not a Shaun T fan in Insanity, but he seems different in T25. Maybe happier, in a better place in life now. And I think because there are fewer people in the workouts, it works better for me.

However, I would be happier if it was 70 and sunny all the time and I could just hike, run, walk dogs, etc.

@nelie oh yeah? So I take it she doesn't just yell all the time like on biggest loser? hahaha
So glad its working out for you! Maybe I should youtube and see what her style is like (:

@Mezmerelda Yeah, he's a lot better in T25. I know that he married his husband, but not sure when. If it was after Insanity, maybe thats why he seems so happy (:
yeah, the smaller room and crowd really help me focus, and the camera angles dont focus on random people, but stay in the front of the room, I like that a lot.

Oh gosh, I would give anything to hike (: I love nature!

I did the next workout of T25 after a long day of work and resisted eating the yogurt there! Im proud of myself (:

Today was ab intervals and I LOVED it! I really felt my abs tightening and burning, it felt incredible! I like it way better than the total body circuit thats for sure :P I think this is my favorite one yet.

Its nice because yo go on the floor and do your planks, tightening your abs, then he makes you get up and cardio it out with a sprint here and there and it feels really good! <:

Tomorrow is Lower Focus Cardio! I'm scared! hahaa

Lower focus isn't all cardio. You'll do great, I'm sure!

Shaun T's husband is actually in most of the videos. It's kind of cute to watch their interaction. I'm not sure if they married before or after T25 was filmed, but either way, I'm happy for him. Do you follow him on FB? (Assuming most people are on FB...)

Just did the lower Focus Cardio portion, it was tough cause the video I have is messege up and skipped about 5 or so minutes, so i had to just do an extra 5 minutes of what I already did just to get it all in. But wow my legs are weak! So many squats, lunges, and pulses! Pulse lunges are the worst!

But I'm proud to say that I was down a pound this morning and am now at 156!!! I'm really excited! Only 16 more pounds to go! (:

I have a friend staying the weekend with me and im taking her out for dinner and lunch tomorrow, I will have to really strive to not mess up (going out to indian food so need to portion myself VERY well) especially since tomorrow is my rest day! Wish me luck!! (:

I miss Indian food. We don't have it out here. Have to go back to Chicago for that, I guess.

Ah, yes...I hate those pulse lunges. Someone was being mean when he thought that section of the workout up.

Happy Rest Day!

so, even though its my rest day, since i ate so bad over the weekend and feel super guilty, i actually did 3 T25 workouts in a row before i head to work tonight. I did the Cardio, Abs, and full body cardio.
Im tired but hey, thats what happens when u fall off track, its a punishment I hope I wont have to repeat anytime soon! haha (:

Kizzy, atleast you recognised that you fell of track and you tried something to correct it. Fill up with water and let those wrong food flush out. Will post tomorrow

Hey!

T25 should be arriving on Thursday and I will probably wait until Monday to start, so one week away! I will be going to Bikram while waiting, maybe that will help ease the blow of these workouts....errr...doubt it =)

I love Shaun T and I love the idea of only 25 mins. I have at least 40lbs to lose, so I will be huffing and puffing the entire time. I bought gamma also, so I should be finishing up during spring break (helps me to keep that mental note). Good luck everyone and keep pushing play!

Marie

givepeaceachance - What is Bikram? Looking forward to you joining T25!

I started with T25 this morning and all I can say is, s*** and all those other swear words!!! I felt like I was dying! Hahaha. Heart was pounding in my chest. A really awesome way to start of the phase with cardio. I also love seeing the lady that did insanity on it aswell. Shows that life catches up with us all. She's looking good though! So tomorrow I think it is Speed 1.0 hahaha. I can already see how funny that's gonna be!
