Shaun T's Fitness Tip For Today: It’s not how fast you do the moves that counts, it’s about doing each move correctly and not sacrificing your form. If you find yourself struggling, the best thing you can do is modify. Stay with Tania. I think you’ll find that you still get quite a workout. Also, it’s totally ok to take a few seconds to catch your breath and then get right back in there!

Yes I needed to modify today. Planks and pushups kill me. I had to modify several times today and needed to stop and catch my breath a few times. So the combination of cardio and pushup/plank made this the most difficult workout for me so far.

    Yes I had to stop and take breaths and also modify many times. It was definitely the hardest workout so far! Hope it gets easier to do these.
    Also, do any of you guys enter these workouts in the exercise portion of this website so it can calculate calories burnt? I am new to this site and am wondering how I can put in T25 workouts in there.

    I have to agree, hard workout! I tried to stay with the regular moves as much as possible, but I did have to modify from time to time as well. I am noticing some of my vacation free-for-all bloat is going away, so that is good!

    That was really tough workout. Feel a little discouraged coz I had trouble even following Tania during the plank bits :(

    We are going to do this exercise later on today after work. I was able to do the other 2 exercises without modifying so far. From what I get, I will probably modify at some point today. I actually have a heart rate monitor that really helps in seeing how hard I workout. I create my own exercises in this website to check my progress. Good luck everyone!

    I had to modify most of it today-- I just tried to keep thinking "Doing anything is more than doing nothing" and "I can't wait to see how much more I can do by the end of the 5 weeks!"

    I've been entering the workouts at burning 200 to 250 calories based on several blogs I've read from women tracking their calories burned through their devices.

    Did this one this morning. Wow, is it *hard*! No way I could have gotten through it without Jillian's endless plank circuits to prepare me. Guess I got my wish for more upper body moves in this program. Didn't have to go to the knees for any of the push-ups. I did leave out some reps because I kept looking at the screen to see what they were doing.
