Alright guys I joined this group to cheer you on. I have access to PIYO though beach body on demand so I am going to try and do it once in a while so I know what you guys are talking about. A couple months ago I told my husband my mind wasn't right and it would help me a lot if he would workout with me. He has been an angel and we have been doing workouts on beach body but I'm thinking of not pushing the PIYO with him. Right now we are doing Hammer and Chisel. I am obsessed with being on myfitnesspal and I will be checking in on your posts often!!!! Go Piyoritas!!
Awesome Jamie !
Welcome to the PiYoritas !!
I did Hammer and Chisel last year around this time for a little less than a month. It is good and hard, like we like it right? It is definitely an option for @bianca616 and I’s next step in January. That, or Body Beast or Chalean Extreme (although I have done that one completely already). Any thoughts ?
I already have the DVDs but if I didn’t I’d totally go Ondemand.
Exciting !
Goooooo strength training !
I love the feeling of getting stronger, tighter, and fiercer by working my body hard.
Arghhhhhhh (double flexing) lol3 -

Thank you @Jamie6636!! That is so great that your husband works out with you. My husband has been procrastinating on working out and will only weight train, no workout routines. How is hammer and chisel? @KrystinaMTL and I have been discussing which exercise series we should move to after PIYO and would love any input you may have since you have access to them all. Since we are talking about incorporating weights or bands we were looking at Chalean Extreme. How do you like Beach Body on demand?
Well here is my beach body story:
I bought the original p90x when it first came out on an infomercial. I never got through the whole thing but I was very close. It is much too time consuming. I have never regretted buying the program. The workouts are excellent and I still use them often.
I bought Hardcore 22. I absolutely love it! We got through 2 rounds before my husband became bored. I loved that all the workouts are short but it really kicks your butt. All the workouts are great cardio. Disadvantage is that it is a lot of burpees, pull-ups, pushup so not that great on the body if you have any knee/ shoulder issues.
I did the free trial for beach body on demand and then cancelled. I was doing other things at the time. More recently I resubscribed. I paid $99 minus 5$ because I used ebates. It is about $9 a month. I could spend the $95 taking my family to Applebees one time so I think it is totally worth the price for the year. The amount of workouts I have access to is awesome and they are so easy to access.
Hammer and Chisel is OK. A ton of strength training. I have found that I need more cardio so I have been hopping on my elliptical after my workout. You also need a bench, pull up bar dumbbells, ect. The workout is about 30 minutes and it goes fast. My husband thinks its perfect. He just wants to be sore after a workout. He is a janitor so he gets plenty of walking for the day.
I am the most uncoordinated person I know. Any thing that has dance and coordinations moves are not fun for me at all. I think PIYO may even be too hard for me. I have not tried anything with Chalene yet. I look forward to trying out PIYO, Insanity and maybe even p90x 2 and 3. There is a lot to choose from which is fun.

Hi guys !
Alright, a new week, let’s get this done !
@Jamie6636 I just saw you replied about the B.B. programs. I’m running out of time so I’ll read it carefully and reply later....
Ok
I am off work today and it’s a rainy November day.
I am off to the Movies (going to walk to the subway station, about 45 mins there) and then I am having a small popcorn. Yes I am cause it’s gonna be burned off my getting there and back. I call it balance.
But before I get out the door, must get the Piyo done ! Of course
Core. In 5 minutes.
Later PiYoritas !3 -
