I'm thinking about T25 too, might order it so it's ready to use after Christmas. There are loads of forum threads about it you could read for some info. I had a look on You Tube and found some vids there of people doing parts of it.

I still have six weeks of JMBR left but I'm looking ahead to another program to follow it up with. It will keep me motivated to finish and excited for the next stage in my fitness/weight loss journey.

I was considering doing another round of JMBR but think I might want to try something else first to get a break from Jillian for a bit! I'm interested in Focus T25 but it's kind of hard to get any real details about it. Does anyone here have any experience with it? I'm wondering what the difficulty level would be compared to JMBR? I don't want to do something too easy but I also get intimidated if it's too hard (I checked out Insanity and decided JMBR was a much better choice for my current fitness level).

What are you all planning to do after JMBR? Any recommendations for a follow-up program?

Thanks!

That's funny because I'm pretty sure that's what I'm going to do when I finish. I got the program when it first came out but decided I wanted to JM first. I haven't tried any of the workouts yet, but I've watched a few. I guess the whole idea is Focus Interval Training- FIT (what Shaun calls it). In each workout you work one muscle group to exhaustion, then move on to another muscle group etc. It's supposed to deliver you the same results of a one hour high intensity workout in 25 minutes. I've never done Insanity but there isn't a lot of plyo jumps in T25, From what I've previewed I saw some burpees, lunges, punches and kicks, that kind of stuff. To me it doesn't look as intimidating as Insanity does. There's also a modifier in each workout so that''s always good. The program is 10 weeks and it's split into 2 phases (each phase is 5 weeks). Personally, I like Shaun T', he's motivating and funny at the same time which is a change from Jillian lol. Let me know if you end up doing it when your done!!:)

I would NOT recommend doing rounds of JMBR back to back!

You still have half way to go, and even though you may enjoy it you will be begging for some freedom and a change of pace by the end. I bought a few of Jillian's DVD's and just rotated through them. Even though she recommends doing for example, 3 weeks of 6 week 6 pack Level one and then Level 2, or a month of 5 workouts a week of Extreme Shed & Shred-- I would get so bored. I love the freedom of deciding which workout I will do moments before starting. Basically, all of her DVD's have similar moves but they are all different and so far I am entertained. I did do a round of Insanity and I hated it, then went back to Jillian. I do understand wanting a program with specific start and stop dates and increasing intensity but I manage to create my own since most of her DVD's have 2 or 3 levels of difficulty.
