    I didn't realize gamma was separate. Very disappointed. That's a whole $60 more on top on the $150 (shipping). Hmm

    I am on week 3 of Alpha and I have lost 1 inch off my waist, .5 inch off my arm and gained .5 inch on my thigh so far. It is helping with my running though as my core is getting stronger.

    I love it!

    This program definitely does strengthen the core----and the legs!!!!

    Can anyone help me. I'm on day 5 week 3. I've put weight on.. I'm sticking to the diet writing everything down. Workouts are 100% effort had to follow the modifier but now I don't. I'm gutted I've put on. I'm 189 lb so not slim what the hell is wrong

    Buy a BF monitor and throw away your scale.

    This, though I would add, get a measuring tape. I'm finishing up Alpha phase this week and haven't lost a pound, but I'm losing inches like crazy and can tell there is a definite change in my body, I look much leaner. I wasn't too sure about this workout at first since I'm used to burning tons of calories when I workout and I barely break 200 with this, but I can not deny the results. Looking forward to starting Beta.

    I might give this a shot, I have done Insanity and P90x (and a hybrid of both) and I am looking for something just a bit shorter or something I can do on the road when traveling for work (that is quick).. looks to be like Pure Cardio for Insanity in time without as long of a warm up.

    I am on week 3 of the Beta phase (8 weeks in total). I love the program, but after the first few weeks, I've plateaued out and haven't gotten really awesome results. That being said, I've lost about 5 lbs. and 5 inches or so, and my core is certainly toning up and getting tighter. What I have seen results with though is my stamina. I enjoy the program, because I can burn a decent amount of calories (275-325 on average depending on which workout in the program) in a short amount of time. I thought that Alpha phase was certainly alot more difficult, especially the total body circuit, as compared to Beta phase, BUUUUT, I love how we can use weights and resistance bands in the Beta phase, which I think is important to leaning out and building definition.

    Would I say this is a great program for people who need to lose weight and inches? Certainly, even with the modifications, which I have had to do from time to time, you still get a good cardio workout. But for someone like me, who is within normal weight range for my height and age, I am not seeing amazing results, and I certainly haven't lost those last pesky 10 lbs. I've wanted to shed, but the scale has not went upwards either.

    I am planning on ordering the additional Gamma phase workouts next week, which promise to be even more difficult, and have a lot more free weight/band strength work incorporated.

    Love this post because I can relate. Today was my day 3 of Beta and I did Rip't. I burned about 100 calories. I know, LOL. I worked hard and didn't need to modify. However, during Speed, yesterday, I burned over 200. I also haven't lost much weight but lost a good amount of inches and see a difference; I look leaner. I agree with your suggestion regarding measuring tape. Taking measurements is key here.

    I'm currently on week 1, its tough going but I love the fact that I can get it done and dusted in 25 minutes, as for me time is limited. I have downloaded an app which is helping keep me motivated! https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/focus-t25-workout-log/id688162086?ls=1&mt=8

    Not following the diet; but using it as a guide some days. I am going to make the Qunoa patties.. I can't lose weight on only 1200 calories a day; I tried that and it didn't work. I eat 2000 calories a day and it's been helping.

    I am doing T25 right now. I am halfway through my second month. I love the fact that it is only 25 minutes and very doable.

    T25 is for the average person looking for an intense workout, not for the over achiever. I am 55 y/o raising 2 grandchildren, this works out perfectly for me.

    I have done Insanity, JM Body Revolution, Tapout and many others. This fits into my schedule much better and is easier on the joints.

    Hope this helps.

    Tomorrow, I finish up week 2, Beta. I just noticed that there is a disc missing from the pack, but I do believe you have to order it. Core Cardio, I think it's called. I am wondering if anyone has this/what's it like and how do you fit it into the Beta routine? Still losing inches, little by little and looking leaner. I have not gotten on the scale; I will not be doing so for awhile as it was too upsetting to me that it wasn't moving much. I do love the Beta; and I don't use the band; I prefer the dumbbells. Still going strong and enjoying it. 25 minutes that is a pretty decent workout.

    I got the Core Cardio free because I ordered through a BB coach. It looks like Speed 2.0 in the way that the routines are set up. I haven't done it, just watched. Did Speed 2.0 the first time and almost cried it was so freakin hard.

    Finished Focus T25 and here are my results:

    Bust -.5 inches lost
    Arm +.5 inches gained
    Waist +.5 inches gained
    Hips 1 inch lost
    Thigh +.5 inches gained
    Weight 2 pounds gained

    Waste of time. I did this in conjunction with another workout program. Looks like I wasted my entire summer. So very disappointing.
