Cardio - Focus T25 - first time

OMG! I thought I was in shape, I can burn through all the TurboFire workouts and it's not a problem. I couldn't even do the whole T25 without using the modification girl, that's insane. I will say, that was the best bang for my exercise buck that I have had in a long time. I am so excited for the rest if I don't die. LOL.

Tell me it gets better and fitness is built quickly because wow.

    Just finished 1st week of beta and was surprise about how well I did on core cardio on day one this week. Had to follow Tonia for speed 2.0, but that was more because I tweaked my back not because I was tired. That being said, that double up on Friday- core cardio and upper focus kicked my butt! I've done insanity twice an I think t25 is the fastest I've seen body changes. Not weight drop, but abs and arms becoming more defined. It's my fav so far. Good luck!

    I am starting T25 tomorrow. I am hoping to get a good workout. Good Luck!
  • I am also starting tomorrow!! :smile: I have a question though; I have not seen a lot of people talking about Shakeology when doing these workouts. Are the workouts more effective with Shakeology?

    How do you log it in? How many calories does it burn?

    You need to use a heart rate monitor because each person burns calories at a different rate :-)
  • I log it as a 100 calorie burn in my journal, I figured I burn a little more than that but at least that, so it's a win win.

    Since most of my friends are doing it right now, I will tell you that no one burns less than 200 calories in that 25 minutes. Keep that in mind so that you're eating enough :-)

    I have seen a lot of great result on MFP. Are any of you combining T25 with other exercises?

    I usually burn between 170-200 calories in the 25 minutes + cool down according to my heart rate monitor. I'm 5'9 and about 275 lbs. That being said, I do modify about half the time because of my size and being unable to jump consistently. So it's possible a lighter person could push harder and therefore, burn more.

    I do use Shakeology. I have it for breakfast after my morning workout. Seems to help. Definitely gives me energy and has cut my cravings. Some days I add a second protein shake using a regular protein powder.

    I love T25! I'm on my 3rd week of it and have already lost 3.25 inches and 2 pounds. I'm not following the diet plan, just doing the workouts. I usually burn about 200-250 calories each time, except the stretch day of course. For some of the exercises I do the modifier but only because I'm not coordinated enough to do the other version!
