I am starting the program later this week once my DVDs arrive. I've used several Beachbody workouts and I am a fan of the quality and structure of their other programs such as P90X and T25. Have any of you used, or using Piyo currently? What are your thoughts? :smiley:

    I'm on week 2. I love it for the stretch and the limber feeling I have once done. I'm feeling sore in places I didn't know I had! I work up a good sweat, and my heart rate goes up, but I don't think it replaces cardio. I'm still doing my gym routine.

    I just need it for crosstraining days. Hoping to regain some of my flexibility, sounds like this will help!
    Thanks! :)

    Out of curiosity, how much did you spend to get the PiYo DVDs?

    I think I paid $60? I can't remember for sure. I bought the standard kit without shakeology. It was during the launch promo so shipping was free. Local classes are $5/each, so it quickly paid for itself.

    Thanks! I've been debating if I wanted to purchase, I have a friend who is a Beachbody coach, but I don't want to get bombarded with sales pitches for Shakeology and the whole shebang.

    I recently paid $70 for the basic set on Amazon. I'm on week two, I really like it! I do PiYo in the mornings and run or play tennis in the evenings.

    I am on week 6 of it and absolutely love it. I have RA and a hirneated disc. It really helps me be more flexible as well as balanced. I it is a great program. I as well bought it during the launch so it was worth it. But the Shakeology I love as well. It balances out my day and helps me with not wanting junk food as much.

    I started it on Monday. I like it but find I can't keep up. I hope I get better at it!

    I have a copy but have only picked and chosen what I want to do on it. Does the first program on disc 1 tell you how to use it as a whole program (day by day, week by week)?

    I love PiYo. I am a certified piyo instructor and I use the dvds too. I wear a heart rate monitor whenever i workout, at 150 pounds i burn 550 calories per hour.i think it absolutely replaces cardio. I also road ride bike and lift weights. My flexibility is better than it has ever been. Enjoy your PiYo!

    Just do a different one each day. When you buy the official program it comes with a 60 schedule. But just mix it up and you'll do fine
