Cardio is done for the day. I had to take a couple little breathers during the burnout but I def feel like I'm getting better.
Jenn-try not to get down about your weight. I couldn't lose when I was breastfeeding to save my life! Are your clothes fitting better? My weight has barely changed but my scrubs are feeling looser for sure. Which is great cause they were getting too tight and I'm too cheap to buy new ones lol!
Warrior-great job to you too! I've always had big thighs too so I look forward to the day when I can brag about something like that too.
Keep it up everybody!

Beta day week 1: Day 1 & 2
I did Core Cardio Monday and Speed 2.0 on Tuesday. They were not as hard as I thought they would be but still very challenging. I have lost about another ¼ inch on my waist but no movement on the scales – kinda disappointing :sad: Today I did my workout before I had my coffee and ended up modifying some but it still wore me out. I found Core Cardio to be harder than Speed 2.0.
Great job everyone – keep up the good work!!
@jakeyuma – great STATurday!!!
@wpwarrior – Way to move that tape measure!! Yummy, homemade cinnamon rolls.
@TeeMac – Good job, lower focus is killer on the thighs. I just finished alpha and never managed to stay balanced during the calf hops.
@ Carrie_P81 – Congratualtions on moving that tape measure.
@SlytherinBat – Good job. I know what you mean about the heater. I usually turn my ceiling fan on and heater down about half way through my workout.
@powerpuffgirl – I just started Beta and still wonder if I will ever be able to do the lunge pulses without feeling like my legs are on fire.
@jennicole4 – It is really hard to look past the scales (I still can’t). I know that the jeans I bought the middle of September are now a little loose but my scale just moves up 2 pounds and back down those same 2 pounds. Last week I cut my calories drastically and ended the week with a Total Net calorie of about 3200 calories and still no movement on the scales. I just don’t understand. My family is like ‘you are getting so skinny’ and all guessed me 10-15 lbs. less than I weigh so I was feeling better about the scales not moving. Then yesterday I stepped in front of our game camera and was caught on video and was appalled by how fat I looked. No more camo coveralls for me I would rather freeze I berate myself for allowing the scales to control my life but can’t seem to stay off of them. Just try to remember that the tape measure and how your clothes fit tell the real story. And congratulations on the baby they are so precious – nothing better than a snuggly little one.
@chrissysue – Keep up the good work and as they say ‘just keep hitting play’.0 -
Stay strong and just like you said; KEEP PUSHING PLAY! Believe in the process, work the process and you'll see results! Be sure you're measuring your body too, it's going to give you motivation while you're flipping the scale off!We ran out of propane so it was COLD in here today and I skipped my workout. They refilled it at 5:00 this afternoon and it is warming up a bit now. I will likely do doubles tomorrow and Friday this week to catch up.
No movement on the scale again! I am VERY frustrated with the whole thing. I don't know what's going on. Once I got back to my pre-pregnancy weight, it seems like my body doesn't want to let go of anything else. It took me 3 months to lose an additional 5 pounds. I hope I'm not stuck like this until I wean. I planned to start weaning around 6 months and taper down over the following 6 months. I was feeling pretty good after completing last week's workouts, but my mom took a couple of pictures at my daughter's 5K and I feel like I look so awful in them. No one else seemed to think so and I was wearing a hoodie, so not very flattering clothes, but they really brought me down. I'm thinking about trying 5:2 for a couple of weeks to break out of this plateau. I've been stuck here for almost a month and it's driving me crazy! :frown:
Looks like everyone is doing great with the program and I'm lovin' our group here! Keep pushing play!0 -
Day 1 done....well it was done at 6:30am
Great job Chris!! I just completed day two!! LOVED IT!!0 -
Accountability Round 2 T25 Beta Week 5 Day 2 Core Cardio + Core Speed Push Hard + A Nailed It"
Woke up at 3:45am 15 minutes early and was ready to go. Got breakfast made, but no wife After waiting on my partner we got started at 4:40 At this point she told me she wasn't feeling well. If only I new that 45 minutes ago I could have done a triple Anyhow, Forced myself through Core Cardio. Was sluggish and tired early on. Kept my HR in the 140s though and even encroached the 150's. After this was finished my wife went and got ready for work so I popped in Core Speed (Love this one) and i nailed it. Max HR 197 (highest yet) Avg HR 154. Total calorie burn: 789.
Slytherin - Way to Hit Cardio
Jennicole 4 - Sorry bout the slow scale. The others gave good advice so nothing to add here. Just keep pushing play and you will see results.
WpWarrior - Keep it up. Nice progress.
TeeMac - Keep pushing play!! Try keeping a few cooked chicken breasts in the fridge. That way when you get a craving for fried chicken just heat one of them up and eat it. Good protein and easy on the cals. There are some nice baked chicken recipes out there. Google search is your friend
Carrie - Way to go!! Keep improving!!
ChrissySue - Woot Day 1. Keep Pushing Play!!
Morange - Good job. try adding Core Speed in the mix for an extra double. It helped me break the plateau I was in.0 -
Completed CLX Push Circuit 3 (my fave) and T25 Alpha Cardio. Burned just over 400cals. The cardio was definitely much easier this time around. More weights and Speed 1.0 tonight - I like this one best, perhaps due to the inclusion of stretches and moments to catch my breath.
@jenni - Some women have a hard time losing while breastfeeding. You can thank hormones for that. I was one of those women as well. I could not lose more than 5 lbs until I weaned. Then it just fell off. Just focus on your and your baby's health for now. Your body will eventually catch up.0 -
Today was Day 2 for me - Speed 1.0. What I've noticed is that I'm a lot more sore this time around than I was when I had started T25 in July. Maybe it's because I haven't worked out in about 2 months. haha But it feels good to get back into it.
Plus it felt good to get up early on my birthday and get moving! I think Speed 1.0 is one of my favorite workouts so far. We'll see if this changes once I make it to the Beta Phase.0 -
Core Cardio for me today - NAILED it in a slightly modified way :glasses: Had a fabulous day, seeing more results!!! YES0
-
Total Body Circuit done. This is still my least favorite :P I think I pulled my left quad a bit doing lunges. It doesn't seem too bad though so I'll just stretch and put some Tiger Balm on it later.0

Week 2 day 2. Total Body Circuit complete. Still hard. Had to modify several times.0
-
Week 2 Day 2 TBC..... not liking this at all!..... sluggish from a bad food day.... but I rallied through to get my workout in..... I think I'm gonna start to double up more regularly.... I just wanna throw in the extra cardio either in the morning or the night.... according to when I do the scheduled exercise....
I wonder if that would throw off the exercise plan results in a negative way?0 -
Total Body Circuit DONE!!! OMG! This was my toughest! I liked Speed 1.0 but this one just made me mad! Very happy to hear "TIME!"0

Beta Week 1, day 3 - Rip't Circuit
I did not do this workout justice today. I did quite a bit modified and still can't get the V. I think the problem today is because it feels like someone shortened my hamstrings, they are soooo sore.
Everyone keep up the good work and have a great day.0 -
Completed CLX Push Circuit 1 and T25 Speed 1.0 last night, as planned - burned 410 cals. I'm definitely jealous of everyone who can check off "nailed it." I dont modify most of the moves, but I feel like I'm not at the level of the others. My knees cannot go that high! I feel almost sluggish in comparison. My legs feel like a million lbs on some of the moves!
My nemesis tonight: total body circuit.0 -
Accountability Round 2 T25 Beta Week 5 Day 3 Rip't Circuit + Core Speed (Nailed it + Pushed Hard)
Talked Kris into doing a double with me today. I nailed Rip't Circuit and thought I hit Core Speed Hard today but my HR was only avg 148 for speed when its normally in the 150's. 3 days of core speed is apparently too much for my knees. I felt some strange pains in my right knee and had to fight from overcompensating with my left leg. I think I will take a break from Core Speed tomorrow and maybe through in Upper focus with my Dynamic Core Day. I have to say, I feel my core is getting stronger. I nailed the 5 count abs workout with 0 breaks or mods. I also pushed through the 4 count leg lift and 4 count push-ups today. Like clock work I felt a huge surge of energy at 12 minutes left in Core Speed. That really is a strange feeling going from gassed to full energy in moments. Only 2 days left of Gamma and I will have completed it it. Round 1 we stopped gamma in week 4 for some reason that I forget.
Can't wait for Gamma on Monday. I wonder when and if Delta will be released. Think I may try and talk the wife into buying a supply or two of E&E formula if I keep doing doubles. Is that just a caffien boast?

PowerPuff - Nice Calorie burn yesturday. Enjoy TBC. Do your best and you will be nailing these in no time. I modified almost every video during round 1 of T25. Round 2 I have nailed every workout except TBC.
MacSkills - 2 days down. Keep pushing play:) I love the speed workouts. 2.0 is better than 1.0 and Core Speed is better than 2.0. Can't wait to try Speed 3.0 on Monday.
WpWarrior - Keep it going. You are nailing this program.
Carrie - Good Job completing TBC. I believe its the toughest workout in T25 Alpha/Beta.
Slytherinbrat - Way to hit TBC. I had 2 modify it during both rounds of T25 I completed. It is my nemesis.
TeeMac - Way to push play even when feeling sluggish. Many people would just give up when feeling like that. I added extra doubles last week and it helped me break a 3 week platau.
Srosek217 - Use that anger to crush TBC:)
Morange - We all have bad days, great work pushing play and completing the video.0 -
Just did day 2 week 1 of T25- Speed 1. Did about 3/4 with Shaun with low impact modification for about 1/4. Again- loved the format. The time went really quickly.0

Speed 1.0 done! I think that's my favorite one. I think I'm getting better, even did quite a few burpees instead of modifying. Really looking forward to my 4 day weekend coming up!0

Beta week 1 day 4 Dynamic Core
I nailed Dynamic Core this morning with the exception of the V's. My V's look more like W's:laugh:
I am not going to stress anymore about how many calories I eat today. I am calling it a free calorie day, as in on holiday's everything is calorie free
I hope each and everyone one of you have a great Thanksgiving day.0 -
Wk 2 Day 3 speed 1.0 done...... i was a little faster this week, but my legs are still pretty heavy, can't really get them off the ground yet, modified for most of it, but i'm not beating my self up for that ( i really thought that i would be a non modifier by the 2nd week :ohwell: )
the upside... immediately after speed i did the cardio, and i know all the cardio moves modified by heart, i don't even need to look at the screen, what ever shaun T says i just do lol!! :drinker: ...... so last night was my first double up ( i doubled with cardio) ... tomm is cardio, i might double up with ABS .... doubling up wasn't as scary as i though it would be
btw.. HAPPY THANKSGIVING, for all thouse of you that celebrate .... i'm from Trinidad and Tobago.... so we don't do that here, its just a regular day for me :sad: ... so when u eat a piece of turkey think of me :laugh:
have a great day all!!!0 -
Happy Turkey Day!! Completed Core Speed this AM. Waiting for my wife to wake so we can do Dynamic Core. Nailed Speed Cardio again. I think I am addicted to this disk as I did it every day this week and I think twice last week. MAx HR 161 Avg HR 148 Calorie burn 394 = 1 Large Slice of Pumpkin Pie at Dinner
What are you thankful for today?
I am thankful for the good health of my family and for losing 62 pounds with Power 90 and 2 rounds of T25.0 -
I really, really didn't want to do Total Body Circuit yesterday. So much so, that I didn't get around to doing it until 11:30pm! But I did it. Burned about 240 cals.
@jake - Thanks! Good to know I will never like TBC! Ha.
@slytherin - Happy belated!
And Happy Thanksgiving to every who is celebrating! We had Thanksgiving last month. I'm jealous. I want some turkey and pumpkin pie.
Onto CLX Push Circuit 2 and T25 Ab Intervals tonight. I'm also not a fan of the ab intervals.0 -
