    Hi there! I am looking at joining up on Beachbody on Demand. I prefer to do strength training over cardio as I really hate cardio though I do get some in anyway. Can anyone recommend any particular strength training workout that they have tried and found really works for them? I don;t want to sign up unless I know this will have what I am looking for. Thanks!

    internet seems to be running smooth as I've been able to stream P90. I MAY give LIIFT4 a shot next week.

    I'm doing 80 Days Obsession and it's very strength training focused. It has you working out 6 days a week, and only 2 of those 6 days are cardio... and it's body weight, hiit, challenging cardio!

    You need dumbbells though, lots of different weights (or mountable ones like me, which is a hassle, but it's what I got).

    The program is fun, effective and dynamic... at first I found it not to be challenging enough, but I was wrong. It creeps up on you. The key is to constantly up the weights, assuring you're giving it your all.

    Also, P90x has a focus on strength training, I've heard pretty good comments, but I haven't done it.

    Good luck!

    Tomorrow is Day 60 of 80 DO. Loving the changes! I'm happy about lifting heavier and less cardio focus. I still think I'll do Shift Shop or Shaun T next. I will implement the diet plan, but of course weigh, measure, and count calories for everything.

    P90X is a pretty epic mix of EVERYTHING. I've also done X-2, X-3 and X+. so, any q's just ask.

    Cool. I thought P90X was just about the ole' strength training.

    I'm midway through 80 Days Obsession (with T25 thrown in for cardio)... I've done Insanity before and had a blast (I threw in some strength training on my own that time)... I think the next one I'll try is P90x! I'd love to follow a program that's very complete, you know? So I could just do that in the day and be done with it. If it's a mix of everything, it sounds like just what I need. I've developed quite a taste for these programs, because I don't have to think about structuring them... I just merrily follow along haha, videos are fun and motivating. Thanks for the info!

    you get your weights, your cardio (though after insanity, you'll find "Cardio-X" & "Kenpo-X" a bit weak), your plyometrics, yoga, core, stretch (feels like more yoga)...the works!

    I'm on Day 50 80 day obsession, and planning what's next. I want to burn more fat and preserve muscle size.

    Btw does anyone follow the diet plan with no Shakeology, but still weigh, measure, and count calories for their portions? I feel like I need a solid plan.

    I finished Liift4 (early access..) and lost 13lbs and 10.5inches... and at the time, I wasn't using shakeology, just the nutrition plan provided by Joel :)

    Message me if you want to ask any more questions, I'm happy to chat!

    "Insanity: Plyometrics Cardio Circuit"=Done! WITH THE DVD!

    I was going to follow it up with the P90 Saturday Special...but the stupid On Demand had other ideas. sometimes I can get it to work...and sometimes not. It ran smooth as hell all week...and today all I get is that stupid spinning hourglass or an error message. Maybe I'll try later...and maybe @!#% on demand. I'll see what kind of mood I'm in.

    I wish we had good internet. I’d love to try the On Demand service.

    my internet isn't good. sometimes On Demand runs smooth...like today, other times it won't run at all. sometimes I get half way through and it starts getting stuck. it's frustrating when it's not working properly...and I'm not a fan of any streaming or download "service".
    that said, I'm not "committing" to ANY full program that I don't have a hard copy of. I'll just go along as I'm able.

    MAX: 30 will do just that. I don't know if the team beachbody site still does it, but they used to have a summer and a winter sale. I picked up Asylum Vol 1+2 & MAX: 30 SUPER CHEAP. and I almost feel like I stole T25 and P90X2! any coaches on here know if they still do that?

    I spent WAY too much time fighting with the On Demand today. settings said I was connected and my connection was "very good"...still wouldn't load. :s
    I ended up going to my back room, where the computer lives...and banged it out there. not the best room as it's smaller and has a lower ceiling. yes I hit the ceiling today...more than once. :s

    Thanks for the info! I will keep a watch for the sales, if they still do them 🙂

    Gamma Extreme Circuit is done! I forgot how intense that one was. I sweat a lot and got through it.
