Focus T25 VS. P90X

Not the same kind of program. P90X has much more resistance training to help muscle growth. Focus T25 is more like Insanity with a lot of Plyometric and Cardio moves that will get your heart rate to the top.

P90X is 1 hour workouts while Focus T25 is 25 minutes workouts.

What are your goals?

I haven't done T25 yet, since I'm in the middle of Insanity, but I have done p90x. Personally, I prefer Insanity and Shaun T. over p90x and Tony Horton.

Shaun T. is awesome, and the fact that his workouts don't require extra equipment (ignoring Asylum), is great for people who don't want to worry about having 3 different sets of weights, a chin-up bar, and resistance bands.

As for Insanity being "too advanced" for someone that is 50lbs overweight, don't even think about it! I've seen 300lb+ people starting insanity. The pace and a lot of the moves can be modified. Too tired to do power jacks? Do jumping jacks... still can't do jumping jacks? Jog in place or do squats. You probably won't be able to keep up with the pushups at first, but you can always do them on your knees or hold a high plank. The big point is the drive to do better each time.

If you can keep up with Insanity on your first go, you probably don't need a workout program anyway because you have your fitness figured out.

Thanks for reply. I have heard Insanity causes alot of people knee pain. Since I delivered, I'm have joint pain ..wrists kneed and feet are worst..

Everything does loosen up during/after pregnancy but your baby is 5 months old now. You need to see your GP to find out why you still have joint pain. 6 weeks afterbirth is usually when the body starts returning to normal

I haven't done any.
But I'm about to start Focus T25 and can't wait!
You'll build some lean muscle with it with the 'beta and gamma' phase, alpha uses no equiptment.
I've seen great progress photos from people though! They're lossing inches around their waist!

Wow the waiting list is that long? has anyone else heard that? that's really strange what are you supposed to do before It arrives?

Hi! At one point when T25 first debuted the base kits were on backorder, but that isn't the case now. It was because of the high demand for the program.

Hi! The program if followed correctly and with clean nutrition would be very effective in losing the baby weight. Tania from Insanity is the modifier in the videos and she dropped 20 pounds of baby weight after a c-section just doing the modifications. The program has been effective with individuals obtaining results if followed correctly. Of course with any fitness routine nutrition is always a large part of success in reaching your goals. Hope this helps.

p90x is more focused on muscle building and t25 has more of a cardio effect. t25 is also much shorter...25 minutes compared to an hour or more. I have done both (done some of the t25 workouts at least and will actually start the program tomorrow..done it live with Shaun T too) so shoot me a message if you have questions!

I had the same question! I had a baby 5 months ago and have 30 pounds from that plus 20 pounds that I needed to loose before I got pregnant. So 50 pounds ugg.. I really want to transform shape not just change the numbers on the scale. I a stay at home mom so I can do the othet 30 mind a day p90x requires. Just not sure i will get as good results im half the time in t25. Thoughts? Avoiding insanity because its too advanced for where I am right now. Thoughts?

time crunched, huh? search threads for dr. oz and shaun t, someone posted a thread today for a 15 minute workout by shaun t that he did on dr. oz's show and it should be quick enough and effective enough for you

Look up Supreme 90. It's highly rated, has similar goals to P90X but the workouts are a lot shorter, plus it's much, much cheaper. I've got it lined up for my next program after I finish Body Beast.

If you can keep up with Insanity on your first go, you probably don't need a workout program anyway because you have your fitness figured out.

Awesome! Well-said!
