    So you have to PURCHASE the 3rd phase? That annoys me since the program is already $120! How much is the 3rd phase?

    If you purchase the full "Gamma Package" it's another $120.
    However, they have the Gamma "DVD Only" package and it's $60.
    The initial program is listed as a 10 week program and that's the Alpha/Beta phases for $120. Gamma adds another 4 weeks on the original 10 week program. We didn't even know about the Gamma phase until the Coach's Summit the weekend prior to release.

    Yeah, the additional 3rd phase seems like a strange way to release a new system since it's available at the exact time of release - not say, a year later.

    Either way, I have it and started this past Monday. Loving it - serious sweating in each one - got my double today - gonna be brutal.

    Hi. It's out. I ordered it and already received it. Just finished Insanity last night. Looking forward to Shaun T's challenges in T25, but not starting it until I get back from vacation in a week or so.

    I'm just finishing week 1 (double today) and am liking it (not loving it). I miss lifting - just finished ChaLEAN Extreme. Thinking I need to lift as well as do T25...?

    I just posted this in my challenge group this morning. People LOVE this program because it is only 25 minutes. One thing you need to realize is that is ONLY 25 minutes. You are not going to get 1-2 hours worth of results in only 25 minutes. You can results from this program, but your nutrition has to be spot on. My nutrition has been crap the last couple of weeks. I'm not talking cake, cookies, ice cream, burgers and McDonald's crap, but it hasn't been as clean as it should be. I'm 4 weeks in and although I am seeing some great strides in my cardio and endurance, the weight and the measurements aren't showing like they could be. I know what my issue is and I can fix that to get better results. But, people that buy this program thinking they can get "Insanity" "P90X" or "Combat" results from just 25 minutes a day are going to be sorely disappointed. You will get results, but your nutrition has be almost perfect to get what they are talking about. Don't get me worng, I really like the program. But I want people to have realistic expectations when doing T25 only.

    And just so someone doesn't think I'm just taking to talk: I'm no stranger to these programs. I have completed Insanity (twice) Les Mills Pump, Les Mills Combat and Body Beast.

    @Lisa: Yes. Lift weights. I'm going to incorporate some Body Beast and Combat routines into my weekly regime to help out a bit also.

    Just ordered T25 yesterday. Looking forward to getting started. Have 2 more weeks of p90x to finish out. It's great to read everyone's insight into the program.
  • I just finished day 3 of T25 and I like it! I love that its quick! My husband does Insanity and I couldnt keep up, it was too overwhelming with it being 50-60 minutes!

    24 days in for me. Another week and a half and I'll be hitting Beta Phase. I haven't pre-watched any of the routines, so I have no idea what's in store. The only thing I do know is, it's tougher than Alpha so it's going to be INTENSE! Whoo-hoo!
  • You'll have to post how BETA is once you start!!!!

    I haven't started yet, but I did get the package in the mail. I plan to start in October since I'm 1/3 into P90X right now. I watched Alpha: Cardio, it seems intense. The moves do not seem overly complex but I can tell that the pace hardly lets up. I am excited to start because these 60 minute + workouts for P90X just don't leave me enough time in the day to do much else.

    Yes looking forward to BETA too. Keep us posted when you get there Dale. I try to do a CLX circuit 1-2 x a week in addition to T25 5 days a week. Feeling good! Also cleaned up my diet and am consistently hitting the 30 percent protein goal I set for myself.

    2 days of Beta are complete. I had to change my workout routine from mornings to evenings, so I haven't done today's yet. (Rip't Circuit) So far, I've done Core Cardio and Speed 2.0. First off: Holy crap!!! Core cardio is good. Speed 2.0 is INSANE!! ZERO warm up in either of them. He starts you off going hard and you don't stop for 25 minutes.
    Speed 2.0 is reminescent of Insanity. You do a string of moves, then you go back and do the moves again, but for a shorter amount of time, but more intense and then you go back for a third time. There are two different sets of that and then you go back and do all of the moves from both sets together 1 time each, twice. You don't work your way up to the complex moves like you do in Alpha. They are all complex to start with. There are so many complex moves and my Southern White Boy No-Rhythm Self showed up on many occasions during this routine. It is a BLAST, but I think this is the worst Shaun T has kicked my *kitten* in a long time. I wasn't nearly as nervoud moving to Beta as I was going to Month 2 of Insanity, but, I'm here to tell you, you will feel those 25 minutes. Great time!! I'll report on the rest of the routines after I do them.
