    I’m on week 7 of Barre Blend. Today was core blend. Any recommendations what to do next if I don’t have any weights heavier than 3 pounds? I’m hoping for a program that can just use body weight

    Core de Force is fun. It’s MMA inspired.
    Piyo might be a nice progression for you, especially you liked Barre Blend. It’s a Pilates/Yoga blend.
    T25, Insanity, and Insanity Max if you love cardio.
    Cize and Country Heat if you like dancing. :)

    Just purchased Beachbody...I’m out of shape and have like zero coordination lol. This should be an interesting disaster. What would be a good program for me to start with? I’m heavy and don’t have a lot of stamina

    Country Heat, Barre Blend, and 21 Day Fix are all great beginner programs.

    Do you like the cardio-focused workouts?

    I'm trying to build strength for my next phase, for the past 10-15 years or so I've been a marathon runner, but I'd like to get into calisthenics and try something new. As I have BB, I was thinking something like P90X3 next, as T25 is quick HIIT focused - I don't have extensive weights, so dumbbells, kettles and a pull up rack and rings - so my own body weight.

    P90x might be a good progression then. @PGKY may be able to give better advice on that program, I never done that one and it’s been years since I’ve done p90x3.

    Hi everyone
    Hope you don’t mind me joining your group. I am Looking for motivation and I am trying to be consistent with my wo. I haven’t stuck to a Beachbody wo for years but I had great results in the past when I did finish a program from Insanity, P90x, S6, Charlene extreme. Not sure if I will do one program or mix and match (going with the flow as long as I get something in daily). My goal is cardio and weight. Today is day one with Burn circuit 1 (Charlene Extreme) and 20 mins on my treadmill.

    If you want to use your own body weight insanity is a great workout to tone and build muscle using no weights. Since you are a marathon runner it should be up your alley as it is very cardio focus.
    But your other choices are all good!

    I'm thinking about following with P90X3 too, I don't have the equipment required but I was looking at it the other day and apparently it can be modified with resistance bands. My though was I can do a run of it modifying a lot and if I like it slowly start getting more things to do it properly as I improve. I have 2 and a half weeks of P90 left to decide.



    Sounds good, I think the important thing will be a pull up bar or anchor for a resistance band to do the pull downs. Some of the single weight exercise could be done with a kettlebell which might be cheaper than buying adjustable dumbbells?

    I have been a marathon runner but since running under 3 hours I've decided I'd like to add a bit of muscle, rather than being so skinny. I gained a bit of fat after my daughter was born and I slowed on the running, I've lost that now so I think I may need to go for a slight surplus and see where it goes.

    Yeah I don't have a bar :( , that has been the main thing preventing me from choosing P90X3. But I'm meaning to get one this year, the thing is I also don't have a good place to install it in and I'm pretty sure I'm not strong enough to use it yet either. But I do want to focus on strength moving forward since I don't really have any weight to lose so might just have to find a way around it or get one.

    Where are you based? I just bought a Gravity fitness pull up station thing, it goes up in minutes and packs away in a bag. Maybe you can find similar? Or you can use a sturdy table for rows to build strength for pull ups?
