T25 for the new year! Lets GO!

Week 1 - Alpha Cardio + Cooldown
203 calories burned

pushed myself today and could really tell. I got short of breath a few times and had to modify but im not surprised or mad. overall i enjoyed today and feel super motivated!

i had started a post a few weeks back and did 3 weeks of t25. then i took a break for the holidays because i was going to be traveling and with family i havent seen in a while. but now im back! starting from day 1 and im excited. i got a fitbit zip for christmas so im hoping it will be easier to track what i burned

Bear in mind that the Fitbit won't track this accurately- it will only count the stepping/ jumping bits. A HRM will be better for this.

well i figure that it will be a closer estimate than just logging a general exercise from mfp. i WAS logging at 250 calories before. if im underlogging my burn i wont complain at all lol i didnt realize that fitbit wasnt a HRM so im making the best of what i have.

Week 1 - Alpha Speed 1.0 + Cooldown
159 Calories Burned

Man i pushed as hard as i could today. it was rough... my glutes hurt so bad from yesterday. I started feeling nauseous with about 10 min left to go but i pushed through. it was rough. lol. im gonna say i nailed today

Week 1 - Alpha Total Body Circuit + Cool down
123 Calories Burned

im still playing with where to put my fitbit. it was in my sports bra today. yesterday it was on my hip (clipped to my underwear.. sorry if tmi) and monday it was clipped to my sports bra... im thinking it needs to be on my hip more because it showed no steps/calories burned at times when i was moving on my fitbit dashboard.

techy stuff out of the way i NAILED today! WOOP! it seriously feels like something clicked in my brain and im just ready to go go go! i hope all of you are having a good new year!

Week 1 - Double Day Friday

Alpha Cardio = 172 calories burned
Alpha Lower Focus = 105 calories burned

i am exhausted! I woke up at 4:30 with Brian. He left to visit his best friend for 10 days. i relaxed and watched the new episode of Sherlock. then i decided to work on Brians valentines day present. im making him a pop up book. "i love you like...." then examples like "dean loves pie, hermione loves books, ten loves rose, sheldon loves his spot... etc" got two pages started. then i worked from 2-9. We were supposed to get off at 8:30 but we were so busy because of stupid oncoming snow that we were waaaay behind. boo! THEN i came home and did my double day. OY VEY! i am going to eat dinner then either relax or sleep. I. AM. BEAT!

I worked as hard as i could on both workouts. i have been awake too long and am super hungry, and i had to pee during the whole cardio workout (tmi sorry lol) so yeah. im checking today as a NAILED IT because i got it in. BOOM!

Week 2

yesterday was Cardio. I did not do this workout because i spent 30 minutes shoveling snow in the late morning and it made me so exhausted all day. my fitbit said i only burned 52 calories but MFP said i burned 230 calories. either way i was beat!

Day 2
Alpha Total Body Circuit + Cooldown
127 Calories burned.

Man... call me wheezy! lol i sweated. i modified. i LOVE that i got off my booty and did it!

Started week 1 on Jan 1, made it to day 4 but got sick so starting over with Cardio again today. Will post results after each workout

i would love to hear them! :flowerforyou:

Week 2 Alpha Speed 1.o + Cooldown
170 calories burned

this is by far my most favorite workout i love the music. i love the moves. i love it all! i was having balance issues today and my ankle did a thing 3 minutes into it but i pushed through, im used to it just going out on me randomly. i also had an awesome moment today during my workout. I was watching Ms Yellow Shorts (up front and not Tanya) and during the hip flexor stretch i noticed her back wrinkled up. and she is TONED! that makes me feel a little less pressured to be perfect and not have any of my skin touch itself, even though i will try my damnedest!

i also had a thought. over my 2 week break i visited family and we went to the mall. i bought a magnetic bracelet. it was only 10 dollars and its super cute. im wondering (even if it is all mentally) if that has any thing to do with my increased motivation and "go get em"-ness. hmm... anyway happy wednesday!

Week 2 FINISHED!

Very happy with this. Im just pushing play every workout day and im using the calories in vs calories out method. thats it! *happy dance

I just finished week 2 as well and feel great. Have lost 5 and a half pounds since starting.

thats great! im down almost 4 :drinker: :flowerforyou:

I hate working out, I hate having to get dressed and figure a way to get to the gym.....ok, fine...I'll give this home workout a try.

I did Day 01 Alpha Cardio today. Whooooa. 25 minutes nonstop exercise and he means it. I felt awful and kind of wanted to puke about halfway through, the steps were kind of hard to follow, but I caught myself laughing a couple times, and had sweat through my shirt. After about an hour of recovery, I felt great!

And the best part was being in my own living room and just getting confusing looks from the dog.

See you on Day 02 :-)

great job starting! its really fun and rewarding to be able to work through programs like this. my cats watch me all the time.. sometimes they get under foot or in my face when im on the floor lol gotta love pets
