    Hello all! This is a 2018 thread for anyone doing Beachbody programs to link up! Or for us to do Beachbody program together!

    I am doing Focus T25 currently, I’m in the Beta cycle, week 3 (starting tomorrow).

    Here’s to us crushing it in the spring!

    Also please feel free to add me! Need likeminded individuals to help crush these goals!!

    So glad I found this thread!!! I just started tracking my eating again. Eating balanced is the biggest challenge for me. I've been doing the 80 day obsession and I'm in phase 3 day 53...I love the beachbody challenges. I haven't lost a lot of weight but I have firmed up and I'm very happy with my body's progress. After i finish 80 day I'm looking to do Sagi's Beast workouts or T25...Happy to say i will be wearing my bikini this summer!

    Great job! :-D I only tried one Max 30 workout so far, knackered me out! I was thinking of trying it next though.

    Max Cardio Conditioning today, total sweat fest! 4 days of Insanity to go!!!!

    Good for you. Just started month 2 and quickly remembered how intense it is. is it bad that I want to take a break during the "warm-up"? lol

    It took me a couple weeks to be able to get through the month 2 warm ups without needing to stop, and even now I find it challenging! You've got this!

    MAX 30 warm ups are at ACTUAL WARM UPS, and doable. original insanity...NOPE! you just get thrown in the deep end. ASYLUM, especially volume 1 are pretty good...but EFF that speed rope! can't do it. :s

    "Insanity Max: 30 Tabata Power"=DONE! MADE IT...AGAIN!!! those water breaks!!! :p

    Nice going! Is Max 30 harder than Insanity?


    Max interval Plyo done today. Getting pretty fatigued, and I'm so hungry I'm eating over my calories, but 2 days left! And I did still feel pretty strong in some of the exercises. The power jumps in the first circuit always kill me though.

    well...they're both "hard". I think MAX 30 is more well thought out i.e., the moves in each set compliment each other well rather than just trying to wreck you. the pace is better and the breaks are more consistent ('bout 30 seconds, 10 for tabata). also, as I said before...the warm up is actually a warm up. fatigue sets in, but when you need a break, you write down the time. next time, you try like Hell to beat that time, even if just by a second or two. don't like power jumps at the beginning?...try one solid minute AT THE END! >:) wait 'til you see genie jumps!!! :o

    I had Max interval Pylo as well today. You must be feeling great since you are so close to the end. Great job! I have hated power jumps since they were introduced in the fit test. They might be the exercise I hate the most from Insanity.

    Can anyone suggest a cardio workout that’s appropriate for people with knee issues and need to avoid jumping and twisting? Plus I can’t stand kickboxing, boxing or dance moves in workouts... I am looking to get back in shape after a meniscus tear in February, I’ve been cleared to workout but have to be more careful with my knees, plus I’m over 40. My DH has all of the P90’s, insanity, T25, etc., but I cannot handle those programs. I would love your suggestions - thanks in advance!

    21 day fix. There are lunges and squats but not jumping. I don't know your limitations but I'd try that one.

    Thanks for the suggestion, I checked it out in more detail and see they have a modifier so I will give it a try - thanks!

    Start of week 5 on T25 Alpha. I’m looking forward to Beta next week. It’s been a bit difficult staying motivated but I can do this! B)

    Keep on going everyone!!

    Restarting 80 day obsession, round two! I am at Phase 1 day 2. I saved my sheets and it’s nice to see how much stronger I am than in my first round.

    Today’s workout kicked my butt! Total Body sucks lol. I’ve been really pushing myself, especially with the plank and ab exercises. I still can’t do all the jumping (knee issues) but I’ll get there too.

    Keep up the great work everyone! We can do this.

    Over a week of without working out from strained groin. So today I did the Insanity fit test. My numbers were down or equal none went up. Not disappointed I expected this. Just glad to be back at it today.

    Currently in the Lean phase of Chalean Extreme! I've always loved beachbody programs. But this one is my favorite. Lost 11 pounds so far from it and when the next few weeks are done I'm gonna start it again.

    T25 Alpha done. I start Beta next week and can’t wait. I struggled through today’s double workout. I got through Total Body and 1/2 of Lower Focus. Not sleeping tends to mess up the workout :D

    Enjoy your workouts everyone!

    this was supposed to be tomorrow's routine. I know it wasn't gonna happen. I have Spartan in the AM in New York, then I have a concert (5 bands) in Jersey after. looking at about 6 hours of driving and an 18-20 hour day.
